State of the Game 2

M O D U P D A T E

Hello Savrites! We had originally intended this to be a normal mod update type of post, but we decided to do a State of The Game update instead. Mostly to let you know what's going on, where we're going, and where we'd like to end up. First, let's talk about apps! As per the calendar, applications will be opening up again on October 16th. We have changed some of the rules regarding apps to (hopefully) make it easier on both new and old players as well as the mods. They are reflected on the individual pages, but here is a summary: ☄ A reserve is now required for all applications. ☄ There will be an application cap. ☄ Any current player who officially drops may re-app a new character at any time, but only once every 2 months. The application cap will be set to 15 applications for new players and 15 applications for current players. This means we will have a total of 30 app slots open during October. Whichever slots are not filled will then be opened as a "free for all" on the last day of the cycle (October 22nd). Two Page Updates: Mini Games & Jobs TIMELINE: October - Mini Colony * see info below November - Ship Month December - Midway Hub January - Midway Hub February - Arc II Thisavrou Plot Specific Sign Ups Are Now Closed In October the ship will be touching down on the Runoff's Mini Colony. This is a mecha of trade and commerce, which is something we want to do a little bit of world building with. There are three sections below that players should participate in. The first is a sign up for location specific plot; take a look at the linked map and respond with your character's name and the corresponding number. Once all the numbers have been taken, we'll double them over for anyone else that signs up. The second section is to 'create a business'; in this section players can build a business and then NPC it during the event. The third is suggest something that occurs on the mini colony; you list it and if it fits, we'll approve it. All of this stuff will be built into the event logs when they come up. We'd really like our players' input. If anyone has questions about the upcoming event(s), Arc II, or anything else, let us know below. Thank you all for being amazing players.

☄ He'd duck into the door on the left.

☄ In the event that he speaks to one of the creatures, he'd first ask them if they can speak, and if they respond positively, he'd ask them: "Who brought you here?"

[hohnkai]

☄ Behind the left door is a series of beds. Each bed has a man or woman strapped to it, and all of them are hooked up to a single tube filled with purple liquid.

☄ The owners; they're referring to those that one this place.

[alterplex]

☄ Venom would go closer for further inspection of the conditions that the people are in; would they be able to communicate with him? Are they in any condition to speak, and how many of them are in the room?

☄ Owners. Well, that sounds a bit ominous, so he's going to ask: "they brought you here against your will?"

[hohnkai]

☄ They can communicate, but the area of skin around the tube will be scaly and blue.

☄ It'll nod, and then shyly duck away.

[alterplex]

OK WELL THIS GOT DISTURBING REAL FAST... Venom's going to have creeping suspicions that this place is turning people into fish????? He wants to say he's surprised but lbr, he's not surprised.

But, ok, Venom's going to try to pull the tube out from one of the nearest kidnapees— will this result in some adverse effects? Will the person protest to being unhooked, and will they suffer for it?

[hohnkai]

☄ If he unhooks a person, they'll go into a sort of withdrawal. The person will be intensely ill, but if Venom knows basic cpr, he'll be able to keep them alive. At this point, he can do a few different things. He can contact some friends on the Moira for help, leave and ask for help and come back later, or try to get them all out on his own. It's up to you to decide which he'd try to do. If he tries to take them all out on his own, he'll come across staff, and there will be a fight. If he asks for help, he'll have to hide somewhere until assistance comes. If he leaves and comes back, he can bring enough help to get all the victims, and then they can 'shut' the place down. However you want to do it, just let me know if you need more info.

[alterplex]

ALRIGHT operation rescue is go! Two last questions for now, though: would he still be able to shut the place down if he calls for a good amount of backup without leaving the facilities? And is there anything about the facility that would point to it having connections with any other part of the colony?

[hohnkai]

☄ He could shut the place down if he had enough help! This facility gets some of its 'subjects' from slave trade and some are kidnapped visitors. That would be their only connection to another part of the colony.
