are you tired of me on the ooc comm yet

Look, it's been a rough few weeks for Woodhurst. we all need a break. and that is why I come to you with a plotting post for a PLAYER PLOT, involving everyone's favorite getaway... the mall!

Is there a chance your character could be swept away by the shopping experience Woodhurst Shopping Center has to offer? Ever wanted to run for your life from infected through the food court? Is it your dream to hole up in Hot Topic and pray the security gate doesn't fail you? If so, this plot is for YOU!

While the event itself is going up MARCH 11th, this post is a little cheat-sheet of the event, and created for the ease of plotting and planning! You can find a premade form you can utilize below if you so desire as well. So get out there, plan your shopping strategy, and hope that the frozen yogurt place still runs in an infected out break!

(08:00-18:00) TIME FOR A SHOPPING EXTRAVAGANZA!
The shopping center has experienced a notable decline in wake of Bristol's rise as well as the influence of riots. Determined to get more crowds in the door, the mall planned an event of shopping and fun for residents of Woodhurst. Characters can look to do a little shopping, enjoy the activities, and maybe even have a little fun. At least, until...

(18:00-23:00) LOCK IT DOWN.
After an infected attack in the foodcourt, the entire mall goes into automatic lockdown. Despite security attempts to handle the outburst, some infected are roaming the halls. Civilians will be trying to find security in any of the stores, and there will be injured to deal with. A group of Audentes members from inside the mall will work at breaking into the security office.

(00:00-02:00) ZOMBIES, HUH? I HAD A FEELING YOU'D SHOW UP.
Late in the night, numbers of infected in the mall will increase. Characters will be tasked with protecting civilians, as well as identifying how the infected are entering the mall when no one else seems to. Access to the outside will be located at this time!

(04:00-09:00) EVERYTHING MUST GO.
With access to the mall, members of Audentes inside and out of the shopping center must unite to deal with any remaining infected. Time to team up, and ask some hard questions... like what to do with the bitten and injured civilians as well as the infected left roaming the halls!

There will be more information about the event when it is posted on the 13th, but if you have questions for plotting purposes please let me know! And, as promised, a handy-dandy plotting form:

<span style="font-family:courier new"><b>PLAYER:</b></span> Your name here! <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>CHARACTER:</b></span> Mix it up and put your character's name here this time. <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>IN LOCKDOWN OR ON OUTSIDE?</b></span> Not all characters will be locked in the mall at the initial point of lockdown... at least I am assuming not... but those sales at Victor's Hidden Information are pretty stellar. <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>WHY WAS YOUR CHARACTER IN THE MALL?</b></span> this isn't relevant to anything. I just wanna know. <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>PLANS FOR THE EVENT:</b></span> Is your character on the inside, hiding in a Cherry Berry? On the out, tanning in the slight quiet with half the town locked in the mall? Making an impromptu hospital ward and in need of protection from infected? Going Chuck Green on this whole event and ducktaping axes to sledgehammers and Getting It Done? That can go here! <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>OFFERED SKILLS:</b></span> Can your char magic injuries away? Scout around for food? Help man the security cameras or hack the door open? This would be where that goes! <span style="font-family:courier new"><b>ANYTHING ELSE?</b></span> Contact info here, or, lbr, we all want to link more 90s mall gifs. Please do that too.

PERIDOT

[slapfight]

PLAYER: Chris
CHARACTER: Peridot
IN LOCKDOWN OR ON OUTSIDE? Lockdown.
WHY WAS YOUR CHARACTER IN THE MALL? she had to eventually replace those platform shoes she ruined in the sewers.
PLANS FOR THE EVENT: Peridot can use her metal powers to trap infected inside stores by helping lure them inside and then slamming the metal grates on them, effectively caging them. As she can't be infected, she can run circles around them and help out anyone in danger.
OFFERED SKILLS:

+ SHE HAS METAL POWERS.

+She can't be infected.

+ She's an engineer so she can make tech or fancier weapons out of things she hobbles together from Radio Shack if she must.

+ Makes Flawless Peri Plans**
ANYTHING ELSE?



**the flawlessness of Peri Plans is subjective

PUNCH THE INFECTED INTO HOT TOPIC AND LET THEM LIVE AMONG THE GOTH WARDROBE.

Peridot should help Feferi make a spare trident with some metal clothing rods, because she won't have her normal trident with her. :') Alternately (or maybe as a lead up to that?!) she should come help Feferi escape an attack.

[slapfight]

yes good. Peridot here to save the day and also build makeshift weapons!!

[fintastic]

Sometimes she does good...!

[dishearten]

not to incredibly spoil anything here, but her metal powers could probably be useful in keeping more infected from entering the mall!!!

but graham is not aware of them to my knowledge unless we wanna handwave his awareness lol

[slapfight]

kdjfk OH YEAH THAT'S A GOOD POINT. and lol yeah... we can handwave his awareness because she never shuts up about them. she would have said something.

[webdesigned]

lmfao that works for me. and he can maybe reach out to her about them during the event, we'll see !
