In Brightest Day Signups

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.

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.
