You guys ready for more?




August 9th. It's been a few days since the earthquake, while everyone is still recovering from the disaster, the barrier finally stops flickering. Then it darkens, the clouds a dull grey, the sun turning as black as an eclipse. A pale ring of light shines around it, but only enough to make day seem lit by a full moon. And at night, the real moon shines bloody red.

And the next day the sky seems to explode, giving Luceti the wonderful gift of a rain of monsters falling from the black sun.

All those people who wanted summons? Surprise! The summoning monsters, creatures, demons, and various other entities from all different worlds are coming to visit. The only problem is it's not a courtesy call. Torn from their home dimensions, the summons are violent, angry, and feeling rather confused about what's going on. That means they'll be game to wreck havoc on the village and surrounding area. Some will be easily tamed, but most are wild and uncontrolled, a danger to everyone around them. They can be defeated or even banished, if one has the willpower to conquer them, but it won't be easy for anyone. Tamed summons can be used to fight against others, or you could just keep them around like pet dogs. Really big, ornery, elemental pet dogs.

Time to play dogcatcher, kids!


Extra Info:

- non-summoners can still be involved! As mentioned above, the summons will be especially vulnerable to strong willpower, and it's a known fact that those in Luceti have plenty of that. Anyone will a good connection with the Luceti summon spirits will have a higher chance of taming a summon. It can be done with violence or just really, really good reasoning. Be creative and take the summon/monster/whatnot you're dealing with into consideration!

- characters aren't restricted to their own canons in this. A Final Fantasy character could bond with a Persona. A Persona character could tame or defeat one of Sheena's summons. Feel free to branch out.

- In addition to that, numerous versions of the same summon can possibly show up, depending on the version. Ifrit from FFVII is pretty different from the Ifrit of FFX, for example, and the way they're used is also different. Persona from P3 work differently than those in P4. Stuff like that.

- Speaking of methods of use, they can show up as well. Someone could find summoning materia, the SEES guns, etc. The summons/demons/whatnot can still be out and about, but you'll want to be able to use them after you tame them, right?

- The definition of "summon" can be sort of broad, and for the sake of creativity I'm cool with expanding it to include more unusual things. For example, pulling in a bunch of Legendary Pokemon to kick the village's ass would be kind of sweet 8| If you're not sure about what counts, feel free to ask.

- If your character gets killed, Death Penalties still apply. However, the amount of time that passes before they return and the number of penalties is all out of whack. A character could return in three days- blind, with no memory and a dysfunctional left arm. They could return in eight days with seemingly no penalty whatsoever. The earlier they return, the more penalties they have, and vice-versa. By the end of the event, they should end up with just one penalty, though. The penalty they finish with should be the one approved by a mod beforehand. o/

- No, you won't be able to keep your epic monster pets after the event is over :| Sorry guys, enjoy it while you've got it. All summoning/controlling tools will disappear with them after it's over.


This part of the event runs from 12:01 PM (the afternoon!) on August 9th to 11:59 PM on the 14th.

QUESTIONS GO HEEEEEERE.

As an addendum: John is tucked away in the barracks storage area, and there's been talk of the Justice League (since Wonder Woman helped to find him) sort of guarding him in case anyone finds out he's there and gets some violent urges, since plenty of characters would just love to give the Malnosso a good punch or two. His being there hasn't been announced, but I'm not sure how widespread the information is. I've tried to get some ideas on how his presence has been dealt with and haven't gotten much feedback, so- if you guys have thoughts on the matter, now would be a good time to help me out with that!

This.... is epic. My condolences to whoever runs into Bahamut. XD

Oh, also, like I said. Gelda offered to heal John so that's probably what she did, but I doubt she told anyone about John's whereabouts.

FUCK YES THIS IS AWESOME. SO UH question... considering that Emil is a summon spirit himself, how would that affect his interactions with these summons? Would they recognize him as one of them, or...?

[identity profile] meowzy-chan.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
Dude, I wonder if we could tame Emil. And then summon him with something totally random, like a SEES gun. flskflksjd

Also, we need Centurions here in Luceti. What say you, Luna?

sfdkjsdfklfsgd oh god. XD

I dunno... Tenebrae and Aqua at least have detailed enough personalities to be appable characters, so I dunno if it would be okay to have them around. HMM.

I SUMMON YOU, RATA... RAFAR... RATTATA... WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. *blam*

But technically, spirits like Origin, Celcius and Gnome have pretty distinct personalities too. Wouldn't they be disqualified too?

... I love how Ted was just telling Naoki it'll probably be safer for him to stay outdoors in case something bad did occur, and now monsters are falling from the skies.

And yay, I'm finally here for a plot! /o/

With John being in the barracks, I think Bones would have made an attempt to keep the information about him being there under wraps and letting the Justice League guard him or whatever. He doesn't want any hero-types coming in and beating him up even more |D
knightofratatosk: (Uh what)

[personal profile] knightofratatosk 2010-08-08 09:51 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno if they have enough to be apped though...

/DERP

[identity profile] meowzy-chan.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
Well, what about a Centurion like Ventus? Or Lumen. Or, lol, we could get that earth Centurion and then instead of taming him, injure him enough to turn him into core form. And then abuse the core to imitate other people.

herpaderp I'm putting too much thought into this.

Who wants a pet goat (http://i33.tinypic.com/34o3k9z.jpg) butler (http://i36.tinypic.com/20gjl82.jpg)? 8)

First Question: Is it possible for Mayoi to be repossessed by her oddity spirit, even though it's technically not a summoned being?

Second Question: At the end of all this will the damage from the quake start fixing itself, or are you keeping that info a secret?

Third Question: Are these beings powercapped as well?

Fourth Question: Is the power cap on the regular characters for that matter still off?

This.


Has so much potential for ending bad for Frey and all the other hero types. /applauds

Epic plot is Epic.

You mean Solum, dear. XD Oh god, someone finding Solum's core and then going on a crazy rampage, ffffff
knightofratatosk: (OMG yay)

[personal profile] knightofratatosk 2010-08-08 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
Awesome, that's what I was hoping. YAY EMIL CAN FINALLY BE USEFUL~

[identity profile] couldhavedanced.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, god, the events just keep getting worse for Emma! At least Miu and Maryann have strong willpower...

As for finding the summon items--could someone not from a summoning canon find an item and use it? Or can only, for example, Person characters find evokers and use them?

Yes, Solum! It's such an illogical name for an earth creature. I can understand Ventus for air/wind, and lumen for light. Ignis for fire... They all make sense. But then there's Solum. Well, and Tenebrae. They're both wtf.

"Give... me... the... cooooreeeee!" *comedy relief vampire face*

Hahaha. XD What an awesome event.

Question: Would summoners have a considerable advantage trying to tame the monsters from their own worlds?

And I did like the idea of a log for interacting with John, though it has its pros and cons (as you already know). I'd like to see John requesting fish food from his "guards." :|

um, you said it could be broad but Personas aren't real summons though... They're pieces of the owner's souls. The most that would happen is that the Devil Survivor/SMT Nocturne demons started running around which are the same character models as many of Minato and Souji's Personas anyway.

But still this is an awesome event! Actually would this count for generic monsters/ enemies too? Like say the big game marks from Vesperia and shadows from P3/P4?

Also, though I dunno how to incorporate it, would summons from canons not from Luceti count (like the Clow Cards of Card Captor Sakura)?
