aionmods | PLOT & INVESTIGATIONS

Story Plotting

The catch-all page for plot inquiries, NPC threads, investigations, player plots, plot suggestions, and everything else under that banner. Frequency of replies to NPC thread requests will be subject to mod availability, but we will do our best.

INVESTIGATIONS

This is where you come to seek out conversations with NPCs, have your character investigate the setting, or otherwise declare that your character is doing something we should know about. We are open to doing unsolicited NPC call-out threads but reserve the right to cut them short/handwave if they don't seem to be going anywhere or to limit their scope if we are overburdened. NPCs are not always guaranteed to be up for prolonged conversation, but you can try. To attempt to contact an NPC please put their name in the subject line. For conversations of general plot importance, we may ask you to make an closed log.

For investigations, you can freely use this page to have your character seek out information about the characters, setting, or plot. We do ask that you keep investigations to 1-3 inquiries at most, and to have those inquiries be somewhat related. If you want to investigate things that are completely unrelated, please put them in a separate comment. Additionally, please be specific about the approach your character is taking to find out information; their method will greatly impact how well it goes for them.

PLAYER PLOTS

Aion Teleos is designed to be open to player plots, and would be glad to accomodate them! Let us know in a comment below that you/your character is doing and how you'd like to approach it as a player run event. Please put the words "Player Plot" in the subject line.

PLOT SUGGESTIONS

If you don't specifically want to run a plot yourself but have some vague ideas of an event type you think would scratch an itch for the game, please let us know. We don't guarantee we'll use these ideas, but we will keep them in mind when designing future events.

Did I forget that? 🤔 SIGH I'm dumb sometimes sorry. I don't think he would change anything. If the Regent viewed what happened his verbal report would be something like: they didn't really provide anything of value, as you could see, I was hoping to get something more from the next meeting but that'll be more of a challenge now.

What I was kind of toying around with in the back of my mind as far as alternative paths outside of research is him studying magic and trying to find some sort of meaningful connection through that. Given that he can use magic in Horos I'm guessing he would think that aether (the energy that makes up all things in his world) still exists in the world in some capacity. Aether is fundamentally connected to his planet and they had to invent another being entirely with different energy to travel far outside of their world. That sorta thing. That would probably need workshopped since I haven't thought about it too much.

The Regent does not seem at all surprised by this result. They point out that if he thinks it will become much more difficult after a single death, imagine how quickly that will escalate when it becomes multiple deaths, or other unforgivable crimes. The only way to please the Pleroma is to ultimately forsake the Kenoma's cause. After all, if the Regent had been there themself, they would have not tolerated the Pleroma being in Venera at all.

That said, they would allow another meeting to happen, if only to see what happens out of their personal curiosity. They do expect that the Pleroma will only be more on guard than they were before, so if Emet-Selch intends to get anything out of it he'll have to be more clever about it.

They'll also warn him that if he wants the conversation to be civil, he best arrange it before the full moon of the Sovereign.

(As for the investigation, let us know if you do end up with anything concrete that you'd like to pursue.)
