EVENT PLOTTING: LABYRINTH

[futurologists]

ASTERION LABYRINTH THE MAZE The hijacked Asterion Prison has crashed into Asterion Labyrinth, which was coincidentally where their destination was in the first place. There is no apparent way to scale or tunnel through the high walls of the maze, so characters must now go deeper inside in order to find a way out: a supposed "emergency exit" located in the center. The labyrinth is made of stone with similar properties to that of the ship -- while nothing here dampens anyone's powers, the stone itself is invulnerable to any damage, and to prevent anyone from simply flying out or climbing over, there is a laser net stretching from wall to wall. The labyrinth is overgrown with moss and other climbing plants, and there are occasional pools and small waterfalls to be found. But where there's water, there must be life, and the labyrinth is no different: monsters live here, and the skeletons that can be found should make it pretty clear that whatever lives here is hungry. NOTES Please use this post to plot for this event! If you have any questions about the labyrinth, you can direct them to the Leramzen dossier. You may also use that question thread to handwave conversations/interactions with NPC survivors, including Cecily, George, and the blue-skinned Zymandis agent, as well as correctional officers and other inmates. Death symbols are still present, and contact with anyone via magitek except for Audentes (and George) continues to be disabled. Questions about the game in general should be directed to the FAQ and you may submit mission ideas or player plots at any time.

ITS TIME FOR MUSCLE GIRLS TO UNITE
I am so down with human crutch Ramir and network call help, please!!

[heavyhitter]

heck yeah let's do it!! i will probably FINALLY HAVE A TOP LEVEL here, but if i end up being too lazy again i will keep an eye out for yours!

[heavyhitter]

Sigma, Jason, and Ramir will take section 5!

[kisha]

That kind of thread has the potential to get weird timeline wise if multiple people tag it so I'll set something up flagged for just Ramir and whoever she manages to snag healer wise?

[heavyhitter]

sounds perfect :]

[kisha]

plops some monster pelts in Koltira's lap thanks for the sword

[tolight]

lucina and aqua (keeper) will be taking section 5!!

[offkey]

peter will search through section 6.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

MTT will be searching section 1 for survivors, items, weapons, and anything that looks neat.

Like. Legit. If it's sparkly, he'll probably pocket it

[tolight]

lucina during the riot will be supporting people in anyway she can, especially once she gets her sword back!! time to get back at all the people that punched her in the previous riot >:c however, at some point she'll probably have a rough landing. so! some help/medical aid/etc would be v appreciated, even if she insists she's fine!! otherwise, once everyone she knows has been accounted for, she'll be focusing on exploring section 5 with aqua.

within the maze itself— now that she can reliably fight things again, she'll be very, very willing to tag-team monsters, protect defenseless parties, or go through survival 101 with people should they need it!! having falchion back means she'll be in a rather excellent mood, so that's also a thing.

Giovanni will search section 7!

[ofobedience]

Giovanni will have a bit of a rough landing and end up with a few broken bones, but thanks to instahealing he'll be fine after a few minutes. His no. 1 priority will be to retrieve his suit, sunglasses, and guns (in that order) before he heads off to search section 7 of the maze. His heightened senses make him a pretty good tracker, which should help him through the maze a little bit but also to find lost Audentes if need be! His instahealing and regeneration also mean he has less to fear from monsters, so if you need a meatshield or someone to save your ass, this is your guy. Thankfully he's more attached to the team than he used to be and so much more likely to offer assistance over indifference!

[scrap_metal]

Genos will be searching section 6,

[scrap_metal]

Genos comes out of the crash only a bit shaken - perks of titanium skull - and with few dents and a broken ankle and arm. The arm is a subject for a change, because he will go to retrieve his original arms from the ship as soon as possible.

Once that's done, and they're installed properly he'll join the search and scavenging efforts. If the monsters are flammable, he can always provide the flamethrowers, as means of protections! Although he's obviously slower and worse at dodging now that his foot doesn't work as it should, so he'll have to be more likely to fight with a team, than alone.

After few fails, or just being annoyed by being too slow, he'll look for someone with either engineering skills, or even just super glue, to help with the ankle.

[controlling]

sits here

[tolight]

ngl waking up to a notif from "out of batfucks to give" is an excellent experience


are you in a "punch monsters" mood, or a chatty mood!! alternatively a workout mood?? is bruce is down now that she has her sword back she'd be willing to repay the favor somehow!! spars with batman ig

[controlling]

d) all of the above

sparring and/or fighting would be rad as he knows he can throw a hell of a punch (thanks riots) but still hasn't been made aware that his skills are not natural? smh bruce no beginner's luck can take down killer croc in less than two minutes you're supposed to be a genius bruh

[figureitout]

stiles will come out of the crash relatively alright, mostly thanks to his shields — and some cuts and bruises aren't enough to hold him back from joining the searching & exploring. he knows Anakin left him an electrostaff on the ship so he'll go collect that first; later, he'll be trying to find people who might need some protection from any errant monsters, as well as explore the maze as much as he can.

meanwhile, nami will most likely be somewhat banged up after the rough landing, but will feel tons better after getting back her sorcery clima-tact! she won't be too excited about monsters, but will fight them if needed... mostly, her efforts will be focused on the maze itself, trying to find out if there's a specific way to navigate their way through it.

[tolight]

!!! ok in that case we can either spar or fight & lucina can ask where the heck he trained and bruce can stare at her as if she grew a second head


so much for the WORLD'S BEST DETECTIVE smh

[controlling]

world's GREATEST, excuse

and he is still the world's greatest just...don't ask him to look at the negative space of his own life he's not doing it.

[tolight]

oh my god that's basically the same thing!!! gently turns his head to his batman shadow, that's a thing comics likes doing right


that said are you planning to top level or would you like me to put a closed thing for us

[selfimage]

Loki will be checking section 7, and he'll also be expanding his magical senses, as well.

bruce wayne ( | )

[controlling]

bruce is so hilariously unaware he is in his element it is actually kind of sad. but he is also so terribly in his element he's practically chill. he's trained for so much worse, you guys, gotham is a shitshow.

he's available for

• first aid
• foraging for food/water
• rigging temporary shelters
• lifting heavy things (to a point--the goddamn batman is still goddamn human)
• defending from monsters
• making his kid(s) unwind with animated movies when it comes to rest
• mapping out the maze on magitek
• hypocritically asserting that others rest while he stays up half the night
• pulling damian off the wall before he climbs too high and you could fall and you are not breaking your neck
• and much more

essentially whatever you feel like doing we'll find a way to roll, let's go team

[controlling]

I'm doing closed starters! so I can write something up or you can wildcard something here. whatever makes you happiest

[selfimage]

Loki is Loki, so the rough landing isn't going to affect him much. He's got his jacket back, his boots & his sword, so he's more or less a happy camper. Jail escapes are his thing, so despite the obvious destruction, he's going to be pretty happy. There will be quite a bit of time spent exploring. Loki doesn't technically need to sleep for a... uh, long time, and nor does he really need to eat for a while ... He'll be poking around section 7, feel free to join. He still has Gram, sword of truth, so there's that, too.

It's the first time they've had a little bit of a breather, he'll also be willing to talk about his little bounce into the mechanical room if anyone wants to get into some metaplot.

Since David Bowie isn't here he's got some shoes to fill.
