And so I wake in the morning and I step outside

Hey Lucetians. Having fun with all the new people so far? If you missed them, here's your list to add them all! You can use the Admin Console right over here. If you're not on this list and need to be, head over yonder to the Friend Add/Remove page. Go!



There, got all that? Good. Now, event stuff. Not quite an experiment this time. You know that big ol' Battle Dome? Well, the two NPCs residing under it have been making some tweaks on behalf of the Lucetians. Unfortunately a certain Intern has not quite yet mastered Sixth Level Shifting Fundamentals and... well, things will go a bit awry.

On the 26th, the Dome's chambers will no longer function. Though the clinic and vending areas will be fine, the chambers will be locked off entirely. The viewing areas will be blanked out, preventing anything from being seen.

On the 27th, at about noon, suddenly Luceti will be... a little bit odd. All the sort of things that usually happen in the dome? Now it's all over Luceti. Most significantly this will include 'enemies'. They aren't real and they can't kill, but they can hurt you (though not severely). These can range from RPG monsters, generic enemies (like soldiers, bandits, knights, etc), and so on. When they are defeated, they will vanish in a flash of light. However there's a good chance they may just 'respawn' elsewhere. Annoying right?

Unfortunately the scenarios have followed with it, seemingly at random. While your hallway may now seem like a jungle with all the vines all around, your bedroom looks more like a castle dungeon. Even stranger given that your house looked like a skyscraper from outside. Or, you know, perhaps your home is just fine. Only your neighbors have it bad. This means your house could be infested with bad guys AND/OR look completely different. (In other words, it's only as annoying as you want it to be.)

These shenanigans will persist until the 31st, in the evening at 6PM. Everything will be back to normal... but better! At least in the Dome. After it's been fixed to the way it should be, the Dome will now allow for more freedom. Enemies are no longer required, you can simulate a control console inside the scenario to build a world as you go, you can even script stories together if you like. But that stuff is boring, right? The better part is that vehicles can now be simulated - lasers, racecars, and airplanes. It's a duck blur.

The usual safeties of course are still enabled and nothing in there can kill you. Not even crashing spectacularly in a huge explosion. At best you'll just walk away dizzy.

As usual, plotting and questions can be done here. Have at it, ye scurvy players!

You know, I was just wondering when the next event was going to be announced \o/

House 49! Up for turning part of the house into a Zeldaverse temple? :D (I'm thinking the Water Temple for maximum "ARGH" factor.)

Score. This one's going to be a blast. >3

question

[identity profile] corvustuberosum.livejournal.com 2011-07-22 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
What's the range here, on "can hurt you though not severely"? And does, for example, looking like a skyscraper extend to seems-to-feel-like-one-too? Can you climb on these newly appeared vines? DO THEY SMELL LIKE VINES? Asks the player with characters who touch, taste, and torment everything curious...

Awesome. The event sounds great. The vehicle simulators after the event will also be neat.

...Since enemies would no longer be required, would it be possible for docile animals to be simulated in the simulator? For those people who are used to giant owls bunnies and would like to see them? Or is the battle dome still configured only with aggressive creatures?

If anyone wants to plot out some daring rescues of ordinary citizens in extraordinary circumstances, Hanna is available to be your taciturn rescuer! ♥

Shizuo's going to have a fun week.

Looks like Fenimore's going to be wishing she had started learning how to fight before now. I'm reminded of how she spent the August summon invasion running around getting rescued by people.

This looks like it's going to be a lot of fun -- both the event and the aftereffects for the dome. I don't really have any ideas for it yet (besides an evil one that I think I should restrain from), but I look forward to seeing what people come up with.

Woooo, this'll be a blast.

Anyone up for plotting with Roy or Kouki?

...I'm highly tempted to have a Jack Frosts scenario.

Can we solve a mystery?

Or rewrite history?

I LIKE THIS

Oh, very good.

And if there appears to be something there that is actually nothing, can it support weight/be climbed on?

Happy days.

Questions

[identity profile] chronica.livejournal.com 2011-07-22 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay now that I am making up plans I got ~questions~

1) Do the simulated creatures that come out have to be aggressive? Like if it was a domestic animal that became simulated, would it want to attack or possibly cause harm? I know that the creatures can be normal after the event ends, but what about them coming out during the event?

2) Will the Dome be continuously locked up (excluding clinic and waiting areas) throughout the entirety of the event?

That's all I can think up for now, but I might come back with more after my brain starts working.

Gdmit, and Giles had just sworn that place off.

Lina? Lina will probably have the time of her life with this. She'll vacillate between going "oooh, this looks so interesting" and "hey that looks dangerous BLOW IT THE FUCK UP!"

...Dragon Slaves might be happening. Finally.

Anyone up for plotting with either of these two? Drawing from their canon, there's a lot in the way of locations and monsters that can be thrown your way. Most especially the Lovecraftian horrors of late Season 8, if anyone is interested. But on Lina's end, you've got some fairly basic fantasy monsters, everything from trolls to orcs. Giles will probably be keeping back and keeping to himself, Lina will be the one flying around for rescue attempts.

Specifically - housemates and castmates to both of these two. What do you want to be facing? I'd love for the Sunnydale ruins to come in at some point. And for the added horror on the Slayers front - the ruins under Sairaag? The temple where Dark Star was defeated? Tafarashia?

...omg this event looks so awesome I AM SO EXCITED! You would probably still have to drag Giles in on a wild horse, but Lina hasn't really paid much attention to the place yet so now is a perfect opportunity.

And QUESTIONS for the mod - last edit, I swear, I hope. Can we get specific enemies appearing? Like, "boss" type monsters as well as generic types and classifications of monsters?

A penguin? Those things went extinct centuries ago.

Can Lina be Hanna's transport all over the place? She's ferried Gourry - who is twice her size and generally wearing armor - over the length of an ocean, Hanna shouldn't be a problem.
