(sign-ups closed) crime organization player plot!

hello!! i'm hei and this is an interest check/sign-up for a player plot i plan on running with a start date of late August or September. It will last however long it takes to reach its conclusion, so it has no set end date.

Feel free to contact me on discord (hei#2323) or plurk ([plurk.com profile] aftertaste) for any questions!

PREMISE

It's been a year since Eclipse rocked Lunatia with Glow, but there's unrest in the dark underworld again. Umbris underlings have been running into accidents here and there, ending with their deaths, and it's thought there is no connection between the accidents/mishaps. However, with Umbris seeing their bottomline numbers dwindle from mysterious acts, they're looking to investigate these cases. They don't want to disturb the relative peace between the crime groups and bring animosity toward their authority over the underground, so they resort to hiring third parties. This is where some small leaders in Umbris, given the responsibility of handling this issue, hire Moonblessed to take a look into it.

Their guess and findings lead them to a small, but slowly climbing crime group named Libration. Libration is mostly known for money laundering their drug deals/trafficked goods using their luxurious restaurant-bar chain as a guise. Sometimes, auctions are hosted there.

For characters that wouldn't interact with criminals, there will be a dragon caregiver asking to investigate a couple of missing dragons in the Kingdom of Lyestellus. It will lead to the same place!

Characters will be rewarded with a hefty amount of demichroma and a dragon fruit.

tldr

  • Umbris has noticed dwindling numbers in their bottomline. They're looking to hire Moonblessed to investigate.
  • The Kingdom of Lyestellus has noticed a small number of dragons have disappeared. They're looking for any help to find them.
  • Both the disappearances of Umbris goons and dragons point to a small crime group named Libration.

content warning

This plot deals with organized crime groups, so there will be some... Stuff. General violence, mentioned violence/abuse against animals (dragons), mentioned Prismal trafficking, mentioned murder, possibly murder, alcohol, drug usage/abuse, mentioned/possible drug experimentation, needles for tattooing.

WHAT CAN CHARACTERS DO IF I SIGN UP?

At the moment, I have some initial action items that will open other objectives in the future.

initial investigation

Characters can either investigate and question people on the streets of Level 3/4 or search for clues about the dragons' disappearances in the Kingdom of Lyestellus. They can learn about the missing cases, some info about the small crime group Libration, and unrest in the underground.

In the Kingdom of Lyestellus, there's an opportunity to catch a dragon smuggler and gain info about the purpose of these kidnappings.

Libration investigation

After gaining key info, they can visit Libration's facilities. Libration runs a luxurious restaurant-bar chain and there are several local laundromats affiliated with them. Eavesdropping in important conversations will solidify dissent toward Umbris and the nature of Libration's facilities.

From there, some objectives to follow can include:
  • infiltrating Libration itself, either feigning loyalty and going through their initiation ceremony or getting a job at their facilities.
  • learning more about Libration's leadership
  • capturing the leader and successors
  • rescuing the dragons
The future objectives and possible conclusions will be dependent and impacted by character actions and choices.

NOTE There will be opportunities to play with rune effects from a previous event, but it's tied to drug experimentation/usage. Overdose is possible, opening opportunities to play with any number of its consequences: 1) dragon transformation, 2) hyper-aggression, 3) memory loss (temporary to permanent, up to players), and 4) going into a catatonic state. Death is also a thing, yeah.

SIGN-UP

I'm looking for about an additional 6 characters. Depending on how involved some people want to be, I can maybe consider integrating them into the player plot, so go ahead and sign up even if there are 6 submissions already.

form example

HANDLE: Hei
PREFERRED CONTACT: hei#2323@discord, [plurk.com profile] aftertaste

CHARACTER: Yoo Joonghyuk
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: My character would be heavily engaged, but he doesn't need to be in every engagement. I would like my character to be present during the conclusion of the event.
PLANS, WISHES: Joonghyuk will most likely start with dragon investigation. I plan on having Yoo Joonghyuk infiltrate Libration by applying to one of their restaurants as a server, under disguise using his female transformation skill... HEHE. Also, I would like him to get beaten up. Thank you.

PREFERRED CONTACT: discord (foxlike#5941) or plurk!

CHARACTER: Your Mum Megumi!
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: As much as possible, especially where kidnapping/drug research/rescuing is involved because she's already been vigilante-ing and has a minor side plot with Umbris with some buddies so this could potentially help with that too. She also has a clinic and lab for any mending assistance!

PLANS, WISHES: Get back into regularly writing of you know how tired I've been with life But also a good opportunity to really get into the adventuring side of things and whatnot. Also fight scenes and banter. My bread and butter.

CHARACTER: Percival (Granblue Fantasy)
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: His involvement will be moderate to minimal. He can help fight for the final showdown.
PLANS, WISHES: Mostly investigating and gathering initial intel then helping rescue the dragons. He'll be working with the Lyestellus Kingdom as a resident Moon Knight liaison to bring their kind back to safety after being tipped off. Carting a bunch of scared and crapping dragons back to Lyestellus will probably be the hardest thing he'll ever have to do... did I do this right?

PREFERRED CONTACT: rieee#9694

CHARACTER: W
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: From minimal to as much as possible! I'm pretty flexible about this!
PLANS, WISHES: At bare minimum, I'd like to put W here taking some head start at the initial scene/infiltrating to learning about Libration because in her canon, she already worked as a double-agent for the good guy side inside of her enemy faction for the longest time so this thing will be like, breakfast for her.

After that, I can make her fuck off elsewhere after getting paid because lol she def. not doing this for free or join the fight/further objectives if we don't have enough players who wanted to do this. I am here to have fun and not to take other people's fun!

CHARACTER: Soundwave
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: Minimal to as much as possible! He's hanging around Lyestellus lately, so he'll be investigating the disappearances.
PLANS, WISHES: Gathering intel and especially dragon rescue! He'll first infiltrate in his avatar form (in canon, he's a spy and has super hearing, so probably no trouble with eavesdropping without notice) and when it's time to rescue the dragons, he'll come crashing in his robo form. His focus will mainly be getting the dragon back to Lyestellus safe and sound, but he can help with further objectives or join the final fight! ... I think I did this right?

HANDLE: Jack
PREFERRED CONTACT: PM or I can shoot you my disc!

CHARACTER: Wrathion!
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: Wrathion would be heavily involved given the stakes (he cares a lot about dragons), but I am cool to have him sit-out however much OOCly depending on how many people you have for each area! Wrathion already knows a bunch of folk signed up, who know he is a dragon, so... potential for shenanigans.
PLANS, WISHES: This dragon is here to rescue some other dragons! However, he's also nosy as all hell and not above flitting directly into danger. He has a serious overconfidence problem, but is a powerful spell-caster in general. This hasn't stopped him damselling before in canon, though!

Given this character is already an actual dragon, and can take his natural dragon shape... Eyes Emojii. I am happy to get stupid and be dragon bait, on purpose or else be unwittingly caught during an attempted dragon rescue and just sort of roll with it as 'ha ha, of course, I fully intended to infiltrate this way....'

ETA: Also, I am chill with him being generally drugged or beaten up! Just generally want to keep him alive.

CHARACTER: Anduin Wrynn
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: info gathering, dragon rescue and backing up any fights / taking care of any injuries people may get during the event.
PLANS, WISHES: Anduin's best friend is a dragon so the moment he hears dragons are going missing he's going to be getting involved. He's not the best at infiltration but he is charming enough to gather info from people and studious enough to keep digging so he'll do his best. Since he's also a healer he'll be happy to offer his services should violence break out in terms of healing and smiting until his chroma runs out.

CHARACTER: Marian Hawke
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: From minimal to maximum! I am flexible!
PLANS, WISHES: oh, good! this is exactly in Hawke's wheelhouse. She has very normal and understandable feelings about dragons, so naturally she would want to involve herself. She is used to gathering information, by force if necessary, and likes to see things through to the end. Better if you do it yourself, right? Even better if someone is just asking for a fight.

If possible, I would delighted for her to be able to a part of the rescue, capturing the leader, and maybe even just outright infiltrating the smugglers. Sometimes you gotta make sacrifices!

CHARACTER: Gu Yun
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: He's a Moon Knight and has been splitting his time between the Kingdom of Lyestellus and Lunatia. He helped with providing security for building the DraCometae Skyway, and is quite friendly with the dragons. I'd love to have him be involved with catching the dragon smuggler in Lyestellus, and also with capturing the leader and successors, and rescuing the dragons.
PLANS, WISHES: As above. I can commit to tagging at least once per day, and can also set aside time for boomeranging if necessary to the plot. I am on PST, and tag mainly in the evenings/weekends/some weekdays (W and F).

CHARACTER: Malcolm Bright
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: Malcolm just joined the Moon Knights and I would love to get him involved in a crime type plot. He's a criminal profiler back home. Usually he catches murders, but he's having to start at the bottom of the Moon Knights anyway. He might see this as an opportunity to prove himself.
PLANS, WISHES: I'm fine with him investigating via Umbris or the dragons. He can offer his skills as a profiler, as well as someone who is trained to investigate crimes in general.

CHARACTER: Hijikata Toshirou
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: Anything goes, from super involved to taking care of a small bit role! If you have enough people already that's all good, of course.
PLANS, WISHES: I'm up for anything! Hijikata is a Moon Knight and will do what needs to be done, whether that's looking badass in a boss fight and saving the abducted, failing at the infiltration (he has a crappy temper and may have a moron moment and give himself away) and getting drugged up (with whatever consequences), or just washing a boatload of laundry at a Libration-ran laundromat to gather intel.

CHARACTER: Chang Geng
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: infiltrating Libration! He can be a convincing actor and his whole thing in canon is political scheming so he'd good to go through the initiation ceremony to get intel. He can also help with the fight in the end.
PLANS, WISHES: Definitely want him to get into some trouble! Apart from that anything is fine?

CHARACTER: Noiz
CHARACTER INVOLVEMENT: background involvement, please! Noiz is good at playing a support role when there is a clear benefit to him and has no desire for the spotlight
PLANS, WISHES: need someone to do some hands-off research and information gathering? Noiz is your guy. He's a tech-savvy hacker with eavesdropping technology and has spent the past half year building up a good network of contacts in the Caihong area to unearth data on trafficking, smuggling and drug operations in his under-the-table paid work for a Moon Knight. This is right along the same lines of what he already does, and he'd be a great asset in digging up and verifying information for everyone else to work off of.
