*This event is now closed.
The
OFFICIAL PLOTTING THREAD for the
CONNLAOTHIAN MASKED BALL!It's been rumored to happen, but I wanted to officially put up the plotting thread for it since the thread is already up, it's just not yet 'open'.
For those interested, this event is open to
<a href="http://www.spiritsoftheearth.net/smf/index.php?topic=14741.msg148388#msg148388">NOBLES</a> and
PRE-APPROVED, PRE-EXISTING AND CURRENTLY ACTIVE SPIES, ONLY.*This means any spies who haven't had an active thread before this one can not actively partake in any real spying in this event, as they have not been integrated into a deeper plot line to condone such an action.Since this thread isn't open to the public, you must have your characters and ideas approved by me prior to joining this particular masked ball event because it's a 'pre-plotted' event- meaning the main event and outcome has already been figured out.
This ball is a monumental moment in Connlaothian history (well, ok, NOT monumental, but very important!)
Since the start of the war, the nobles have been too afraid to continue to 'party'- worrying that it would make them prime targets for rebels. A few years later, with alot of tension building between the upper class due to deaths and higher taxes, the Grand Duke has decided to host a ball to prove to the world-
We are
not at war and things are
normal.And well...
This event
will go on,
without any interruptions.
Reason being?
It will plant the seed for the nobles to believe it's ok to resume life as it once way prior to the war, and in doing so, open up more possible events for spies and revenge to be had...
This event will have mordecai everywhere, so
magic will be prohibited (considering ALL MAGIC will be snuffed out due to their power) and I also don't want magicks mucking up a preplanned event :P (that's what the events to follow will be about, after all!)
Also, because this event will go exactly as the Grand Duke planned- it'll be like a slap in the face for the mages, who are already struggling. That being said, if you've got a noble you want to participate in this thread, please post your character(s) here and a sentence or two explaining what they'd like to dress up as/ what they'd like to do! (maybe a girl is there for a romance? Another duke is looking to get in good with the Grand Duke? Or even his visor?)
This event is for schmoozing only, and even if there are spies, it's just to 'listen in' rather than do any real stealing of information (considering none will be presentable that can be stolen at this time).
SO LET THE DANCING BEGIN!I will post the thread link once it's officially open, but I wanted to figure out who all might be interested so we can get this under way. I'll be posting my 'active' characters who will be attending here shortly. Most of you who PMed me, thanks for the ideas, and don't hesitate to post more of them here along with your official 'character list' as well~
