It's event time!
November

Hello everybody! It's time for an event and our first big player plot! Everything you need to know is below, and since there's a lot to do with this one, feel free to respond to this post with your plotting comments. (There's a form below to help with that).

November 18th and Onward

At the beginning of the month, the crew disembarked the Moira to gather supplies on Caducus Primary. The natives were friendly and accommodating, though strict in what they did or didn't allow, and everything was going as planned. On the twelfth, the crew received a half-veiled threat to leave the planet. The representative reiterated that the crew had four days to finish up and leave. They made no further contact and didn't pressure the Moirans to leave; all seemed well.

By the 18th, two days after the deadline, the natives will abruptly begin to force any lingering crew off the planet. The time has passed, and they waited longer, but feel as if their goodwill is being abused. Any and all crew members still on planet will be roughly seized and extracted. If you fight back, they will attempt to subdue you, and if you go willingly, they will be no less rough.

The Glass Shatters

Due to a bit of bad luck, and a whole lot of aggressive handling, crew member Bruce Banner will be triggered. The Hulk, unfortunately, is now causing enough damage and force that the fragile and brittle buildings and sculptures are breaking. The buildings begin to sway and bow, glass pieces the size of cars and houses raining down on civilians and crew members as they crack and give way.

In the chaos and panic, the on-planet Ingress is damaged, resulting in a wave of energy strong enough to penetrate the planet's core. The brittle planet, much like the glass that adorns it, starts to crack open and the natives issue a planet-wide evacuation. Within 48 hours, all crew standing anywhere on the Moira with a view of the planet will stand witness as it splinters open, and then folds into itself. The only survivors are those that made it onto the Moira, a transporter, or one of Caducus Primary's many evacuation shuttles.

"I am the keeper of fragile things and I destroy what is mine."

For this event, characters can choose to do any number of things. There will be the opportunity to help Clark Kent try to stop the Hulk, creating safe areas for civilians to get out of the way of falling glass, coordinating rescue and evacuation efforts, and building a cage in the cargo hold of the Moira that will be used to hold the Hulk until he cools down.

Event Plotting Form:
<b>Character(s)</b>: NAME <user name=NAME> <b>Is your character going to help Clark with the Hulk</b>: Yes/no; if yes, get with Clark and Bruce players and see what's going on. <b>Safe Zones</b>: Tell us if your character is going to form safe zones for crew and civilians during the initial part of the event. <b>Rescue and Evacuation</b>: Is your character helping with rescue and evacuation? <b>Cage Building</b>: Is your character going to help build something strong enough to hold the hulk?

... << oops.

[metabee]

Metabee CAN channel all his power into one giant energy blast which in canon is usually enough to OHKO other medabots. Not sure how much damage he could do to the Hulk, but he'll probably try to use it at some point.

[hyperkinesia]

I have very little knowledge of Metabee's canon, sadly. All I can say is that the Hulk is immune to pretty much everything in canon so far, but the energy blast might be strong enough to send him flying for a good distance, maybe? BUT it'll also make him angrier.

[metabee]

Oh yeah, I don't expect many people to be super familiar. I don't know if it would be that powerful, so it's probably safe to assume Metabee's going to be a pretty ineffectual addition to the fight. We can handwave his involvement if you'd prefer.

[hyperkinesia]

I'm good either way. :)
