Palace Raid (August 15th) Plot Post!
I HAVE SOME NEWS. So. I was a fucktard last month and didn't get AC for Iorveth 8| And I can't put him back in the game until September l o l, BUT HE IS DEF COMING BACK, JUST CONSIDER THIS A HIATUS. And along with that, the Palace Raid plot is still happening, the only difference being: It's now ICly being led by Vanessa and Una. I'm still doing the OOC organization, so if you have any questions about it, please ask me about them. You guys can reach me at Wuzzafuzzle on AIM and Plurk. THAT SAID, HERE WE GO - PLOTTANS:
As we talked about in the last Malicant Investigation team plotty thing and ICly in the A.S.S. (gdi roy) meeting log, Iorveth's wanting to take the team of people collecting info on Malicant/preparing for Malicant and do an raid on the palace to get into some forbidden areas to see what they can dig up - as he knows Eshai's hiding stuff. We've been given mod permission to go into some of the normally blocked off wings of the palace as well as the dungeons, and the mods will be letting us search out some info with this little mini plot thinger. Iorveth would have already decided the schematics of the raid, he was just waiting on a good time to pull it off, and with this landfall event, that's what he's going for. The actual raid will be happening on August 15th. Like I said before, he'd have talked it out with the rest of the investigation group at the meeting, so mostly it will just be handwaved that Una and Vanessa have gone around delivering the message of WE'RE GOING NOW, GET READY. SO. Here's how we're going to do this --
There are going to be THREE SNEAKING GROUPS and THREE DISTRACTION GROUPS. For people that'll be portaling others in and what not, they'll be tacked into the sneaking groups as well. There's a good number of us, so I'm going to have you guys fill out this form right HERE:
And we'll be taking that and put you guys into groups of equal size and hopefully not huge size for the sake of keeping threading this non-chaotic. After we have it decided who wants to do sneaking/distraction/portaling, I'm going to be setting these groups up closest to what Iorveth would have done to make a balanced, well-rounded kind of team. We might not have enough people involved to be able to really do that well, but for the most part, I'll look at group they want to be in first (sneaking/distraction), then I'll look at what skills they have, and if it doesn't matter otherwise, they'll be plugged in at random. Does that sound cool? I know some characters, icly, wouldn't want to do anything without someone they know, so I'm giving you guys the option to request one other character for yours to be in a group with. The rule on this, though, is, the character you request must also use their request to be with your character as well. So if Vanessa wants to be with Catty and Catty wants to be with Annabeth, I'll be tagging you guys back to ask you to only make one pair - not Team CattyNessaBeth. But beyond that, it'll be either randomized or what makes sense based on skills (like two people with healing powers on one team and another with no healer would be pretty dumb, you feel me bros?). So for example: Say, after randomizing, if there's a group with two healers and one person who shoots fire out of their ass, and there's this other group over here with 3 people who shoot fire out of their ass and no healer, then one of those healers will be traded out to go in the other group. That kind of thing. SAVVY?
In 4 days, on August 12th, I'll be closing the sign ups at NOON CST, and setting up the groups. Once that's done, I'll edit this post with the organized groups as well as the info from the mods on what each group will be finding in the area they investigate. Then I'll tag your form submission to let you guys know which group you're in, and a link to the plotting subthread I'll set up for each team. The actual IC plot mass log will be going up August 15th.
On the actual log, we'll have subheaders for preperation for the raid, aftermath of the raid, as well as subthreads for each of the individual groups. We'll be giving you guys the results of what you'll find (as far as the sneaking groups go) in the plot posts before the log goes up, when we give you guys your groups, but the distraction groups can do whatever the hell their little hearts desire - it's completely up to you guys how you want to be distracting.
On another note - how many of you would be up for maybe being arrested, with temporary containment? They'd be questioned more on suspicion than actual evidence, given how busy the palace agents were during the landfall. It would be something that happened after the raid was over, so not immediately important, but if you'd be up for it, we can see if that can happen mebbe.
AWESOME. So, there's a subthread below for QUESTIONS and a subthread for SIGN UPS. Please comment in the appropriate space /o/

Distraction Group: Leo, Roy, Percy, Annabeth
SO, since we only had Leo for distraction, I added in Roy Harper (my other kiddo), because he has a lot of the same hacking technology skills, but also he makes things explode a lot and also makes littleroybotsrobots that he can send to go cause mayhem around the palace lalala. So I'm pretty sure the two of them together will be plenty of a distraction for everyone :'D IS THIS COOL WITH YOU?JK, THIS IS NOW TEAM DEMIGODS AND................. ROY :'| SOB. So, how would you guys like to go around causing havoc? :3
