plot requests

This page is for suggesting plot ideas (either player-driven events or general suggestions) for perusal by the mods. We encourage players to come up with and run their own events, and would be happy to help refine an idea to best suit the game setting and the other players. Don't want to run your own event? This is also the place to suggest general ideas, such as "I think we should have some kind of weather event where it storms for days and knocks out power and people have to work together" etc.

For small events that only affect a handful of players, please consider requesting a mission. You want to hunt for ghosts in the empty hospitals? You want to space walk outside the station and fight zombies with a line gun? Tell us there!

As for large scale player-driven events...

large-scale action requests

Large-scale actions are player-driven game plots which will affect more than those directly involved in the planning. This can be anything from a bomb going off to a game show. In general, though, we only need to see a request form if an action will harm or threaten the population, including NPCs.

Mod approval is needed for these actions so that the mod team can work with players to ensure balance and plausibility with game canon and metaplot. As with everything in Singularity, players can pretty much do what they want, we'd just ask for moderation.

Some examples of large scale actions:

"I have a neurotoxin which causes temporary amnesia and disorientation I want to release into Kurzweil's vents."
"I have already found the Underworld and want to kidnap one of the insurgents to interrogate her."
"I want to kidnap Agent Texas and hold her hostage for ransom on the network."
"I want to hack into Sacrosanct's confidential records to see if I can find something."

To request a large-scale action, comment with the following:

Your Name:
Character Name:
Character Journal:
Nature of the Action: (ie, requesting a business license, major piracy, player plot)
Explain in more detail how this will work: (we don't need an essay, but some sort of outline with what you want to do and how you want to do it.
When do you expect this action to be carried out? (a date or ballpark is fine. Give some lead time in case the mods need to ask for further details before approval.)
Is this illegal and/or sure to have negative consequences?
If so, do you have a plan for what's going to happen to your character? (ICA = ICC. Even if the end result is "he gets away with it" we still want to know in order to keep track.)
Does this involve characters other than your own?
If so, have you gotten the other players' permission? (godmoding is NOT allowed. If you don't already have permission from other involved characters' players, you need to get it before putting a plot in motion. Things that might affect an area don't need explicit permission from everyone, but should be designed so that players can opt-out without trouble)

The general rule with large-scale actions, and any other big deal requests, is to provide enough lead time in case the mods need to discuss any of the details with you. We are not in a mindset to outright reject anything; rather, if something doesn't quite work for us, we'd prefer to talk it out, to see if there's not another solution. The mods may also ask you to postpone your plot to avoid scheduling conflicts with other player plots, and event burn-out for the game at large.

If your plot is going to require special items, such as finding a fully functional EMP in the Junkyard, please note that in the description here instead of going to the Requests page. We will approve items on this page if they are related to a plot.

Nature of the Action: Player Plot - Fear Gas
Explain in more detail how this will work: The plan is that the Scarecrow's fear gas from the DC Comics universe will show up in a nice big ol' barrel of fun in the junkyard. The Joker, being a complete tool that he is, will decide that this station needs some more crazy! As such, he will take the barrel of fear gas and dump the contents into the air vents to spread across the station.

The fear gas will cause hallucinations in pretty much any organic creature. Specifically, it targets insecurities, phobias, discomfort, and disorientation into a believable state for a character, no matter who they are. The best example I have would be the Scarecrow scenarios as seen in Arkham Asylum, which is a delightful mix of Batman's fears with some Silent Hill shuffling on in. We're looking for total psychological breakdowns here, folks!

The fear gas will probably end in about a week or so, due to either Hypatia flushing the station no doubt, or if someone can whip up a cure somehow (which would be preferred, would love to have more player involvement).
When do you expect this action to be carried out? Wherever you can fit it in, would rather have it happen prior to Soundwave's brainwashing event.
Is this illegal and/or sure to have negative consequences? No doubt!
If so, do you have a plan for what's going to happen to your character? I'm pretty sure Hiku is prepared for any reactions that could take place.
Does this involve characters other than your own? Yep!
If so, have you gotten the other players' permission? I have talked to Hiku about the Joker's involvement, and she's giving her full support.

Would April 25-May 2 work?
