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.

Hello mods! Following up on Freya's inquiry on the event post, we're officially submitting the player plot we've all spoken and agreed upon between all players involved:

After Vaeka's execution has been resolved (outcome TBA) from the Soveseri event, Abel and Himeka will be staying behind to protect and relocate other members of the Resistance, Ciel and Emet-Selch will as well to monitor the situation in Godsblood and tie any loose ends in the Kenoma's best interest. Estinien's encounters in Venera will trigger the Promise of the Innocent for the former two, which will render them vulnerable to capture by the latter two and be taken to Achamoth as prisoners as a result.

I'm hoping to tie this into the Innocence drawing out plot Ciel and Silco have ICly spoken to the Regent about. Having custody of two of his closest allies would be ideal bait in forcing Estinien to come to Achamoth, where the Regent may be able to action against the Innocence entity somehow. We'd like to have this spark into a large scale PVP conflict in August after the TDM where the Pleromas come take their friends back, and the Kenoma will have to defend against that. Would that be possible?

We have some additional questions too. Freya and Prince would like to know what may be possible for threading during imprisonment (i.e. Kenoma visitation) to get an idea of what to expect and what they can do with their characters in that period, as they will be missing out on the TDM.

Thank you as always!

1) This sounds great! Next month would be well suited to host an event like this, so we would have happy to help organize this in collaboration with the players involved, along with adding a few of our own surprise touches. The Regent would approve of that general plan and would be eagerly waiting for Estinien to stray into their territory, though they will caution that if he shows up they may have to withstand the brunt of his (and the other Pleroma's) attack long enough for them to make their move. They suspect the Innocence may get involved.

2) We do have some ideas for how we could provide them with some opportunities to interact with the Kenoma while imprisoned, though we will caution that it won't be in the form of casual, private visitation. It'll be a bit more structured, but should be enough for them to do an open log. This will also depend on their responses to the survey we'll be sending out to them regarding their preferences and limits for torture and the like.

Hello mods! Thank you for accommodating, this all sounds good to us! We're swinging back to notify you that the capture thread is complete. Is there more for us to provide? We're also all wondering how the return to Achamoth and aftermath may shake out (i.e. reception for Ciel and Emet-Selch, prison/torture logistics for Abel and Himeka), OOC summaries are fine if current mod work load is too heavy.

Thanks as always!

Information regarding Himeka and Abel's stay in Achamoth can be viewed here! Please note the content warnings. In general, the first section is most applicable to Ciel and Emet-Selch.
