In Brightest Day Signups

[on_your_nerves]

The Lantern Plot got approved for June 5th and I figure that'd be a nice one to get some activity going. It will be running for a month OOCly but stuff can be bendytimed around it. It could run possibly less, like three weeks, but I wanted to have it be interaction-heavy with the npcs so they could do more than ringslinging with the politics and stuff around the corps.

Since this is a plot that will be heavily dependent on what kind of rings from the emotional spectrum the characters get and us plotting a lot beforehand to shape the plot around the characters, I want to do signups now and then we can use the plotting post afterward so me and Kaylin can work with the players a bit to help them figure out rings and then know how to shape the plot.

Plot Name: In Brightest Day
Preferred Date: June 5th
Synopsis: "Crew members of Stacy, you have the ability to overcome great fear." The Tapestry says several crew members must go to a version of the DC Comics universe to help fight in a conflict there between the different corps of Lanterns, some of which police the universe and protect the innocent and some of which are out to cause pain and chaos. Upon arrival, they receive the rings appropriate to their personalities and have to serve their respective corps. In the end, the crew must fight in a war that isn't their own, deal with sometimes-hostile Lanterns and the complicated politics within and between the various corps, and must ensure that the War of Light between the corps ends in a way that doesn't devastate a universe.
Plot Length: 1 month
Plot Size: Medium. 8 other characters besides the 2 plot runners. 10 in all.
Plot Location: Off-ship mission
Plot Runner: Saphie and Kaylin, with help from Amit and Zippy

1. Sherlock Holmes
2. John Watson
3. Elle
4. Roger
5. Spinelli
6. Jamie
7. Hana
8. Sirius
9. Allenby
10. Simon
11. Barbara
12. Naoto

I opted to automatically put some newer players in, a habit I want to try to do with future plots. Because Amit and Zippy can help npc and aren't tossing characters in, I added two more character slots. An infopost about the Lanterns will go up over the next few days and allow for ring selection and plotting.

[governorkang]

I am totally signing up for this.

[grimbiker]

O.K. Srsly sign me up here. XD well you know if RNG is kind.

[jackalpi]

...yup, there is no way I can't at least try and get Spinelli in on this one.

[punchedoutdestiny]

I'll throw Simon in for this, 'cause hell yeah Gurren Lantern.

[on_your_nerves]

Oh my god, greenest lantern of them all.

[punchedoutdestiny]

AWWW, YEAH.

[first_in_time]

Emoshuns? This is pretty much Barbara's non-history related niche.

[goddamnwingman]

Dick! DICK!!!!

[elementofloyalty]

I had to flip randomly to see who I'd sign up with. Rainbow Dash won.

[starbolts]

/slides in late with Starfire, because Billy will probably still be out of commission

[on_your_nerves]

Oooh! If she gets in with the RNG, that'll be interesting, since the Lanterns will know of that universe's Starfire.

[soulinherfists]

Signing up Allenby!

[poetrysoldier]

Question: would Mark be able to participate in plot because of the Gyyhler plot? If he can, sign up Mark. If not sign up Ashley.

<--saphie

[cityship]

This will be set afyer all of that so you could have either character in.

Re: <--saphie

[poetrysoldier]

Hmm. Mark then.

[justoutrunyou]

I'd like to sign up Sandy.

Curious Question, will the amount of who goes to what color corp also be taken into consideration or is there the possibility of having multiple members of the crew in one color group and then like, none in another or only one in another? More importantly will that matter? Would it be preferred to have a wide spread of colors?

[on_your_nerves]

The spread doesn't matter at all. We're just going to pick the characters, help them figure out their rings, and whatever they are is what they are and we'll work the plot around it so if that means there'd be a ton of greens and no indigos, it doesn't matter.

[justoutrunyou]

Good good, because I figured it was time for Sandy to go out on another adventure but I had a backup in case there were too many of a particular color.

[keep_surviving]

I'll throw Hana Asakura in because he's getting antsy.

[quixotically]

o3o RNG-willing... I think this could make things very interesting for Elle.

[first_of_steel]

*highfives*

[thedetectiveprince]

Gonna throw Naoto in this for randomization.

[first_of_steel]

Oo! Okay.

[poorlycopingstrategist]

Signing up Jamie.
