EVENT WRITE-UP: NOVEMBER 21ST.

EVENT POST

Hello, time travelers! All characters chosen from the sign-ups should have received an invitation from the Order of Chimera in their inboxes by now, inviting them to a meeting of the minds, so let’s get started!

CHIMERA CLUB

On the evening of November 21st, the Order of the Chimera will be holding a gathering in the heart of the woods featuring some ALASTAIR recruits as special guests. There they’ll find a small conglomeration, comprised mostly of what seems to be... ordinary townsfolk. However, mingling about makes it clear this is a guise: most of these people are half-bloods, living amongst humanity while hiding their part-goblin roots. And though they’ve operated with careful secrecy all their lives, it seems whoever’s speaking today has news worth gathering for.

Some may recognize a man who introduces himself as Michel, accompanied by someone who appears to be his relation. It’s no other than the Suspicious Man™, who’ll reluctantly identify himself as Arthur if asked; it turns out the two are brothers, and Michel has been heading the operation.

They’ll tell you it started as a small group of like-minded individuals turning to each other for support, but Michel’s disgust towards full-bloods and magical affinity turned it into something greater. The sun was only the beginning of his plan, and soon, it’ll be time for phase two.

Despite what it says on the invitations, characters are allowed to bring guests if it would be IC for them to do so.

NPC INTERACTION
Some NPCs will be available to mingle with, but for the ease of spreading information and managing tag load, we suggest characters pair or group up when approaching them.

This post will remain up to address OOC questions and planning. Also, please feel free to use this as a plotting post.

Good afternoon.

Would the conversation with the King have revealed anything about this group? Even just that the King recognized the chimera as a symbol?

And just to be clear: is there any recognition of ALASTAIR as an organization or do they just see the PCs as weird outsiders?

AND ANOTHER: if PCs do get caught, what sort of consequence/punishment can we expect? would it be different if they didn't break into the castle?

1. Excellent, Thanks!

2. Yeah, it was more in an 'overall population'/'order members' sort of deal. Also thanks!

3. RUNS TO THE SHINY

Whoa this getting interesting yay.

I guess if they are holding this in the woods I should ask! Would people potentially accidentally stumble upon it and he able to just sort of slip off back to their wanderings after taking a closer look or are there lookouts for the meeting ? Basically, not interested in actually crashing the meeting but it would make sense for them to notice and check it out in an otherwise pitch Black Forest. Once they noticed an ALASTAIR member they would just sneak away from spying but thought it should be double checked if Muneshige and Masamune would even be able to get that close.

And as a general question if they are asked by the ones invited how they managed the sun disappearance would they actually talk about how they did it? Since it seems they will be letting on that was their doing from the description if I read it right.

Thank you!!

hello mods! the log says "there may be clues in their surroundings, tomes and trinkets left about various tree trunks in lieu of proper seating," would poking around come up with anything in particular that would be interesting, or is it mostly spooky cult set dressing?
