THORVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!!!!!!!

Hey everybody!

How're you all doing? Good? Good!

Okay so, just to make sure we're all on the same page, here's a quick recap of the latest plot. This includes information that, as of this writing is NOT available to any of the characters. I'll be sure to differentiate so we know what's what!


- Loki is a poop and destroyed about two blocks worth of lower-income, not-quite-slummy area.
- While it looked like a temper tantrum thrown by Daddy's Second Favorite, it actually served a legit purpose! You see, Team Sabotage wound up winning the 'The General' story arc, and therefore broke him out of Normal!Police prison. Noiz, a newcomer to the plot, worked on the actual break out, while Jim Moriarty worked as an escort. <-- NOT KNOWN JUST YET
- The General is no longer on the ship-- this is going to leak sometime soon. Hopefully. Gotta work out a couple of details there.
- There were NO casualties NPC or PC; Also, PC housing wasn't affected.
- Why did they do this? Shits and giggles, mostly.


Now that we have that out of the way (any questions, and I'll be happy to answer them!) there is a nice little proposition that's come out of this that, while not initially intended, worked out REALLY nicely!

So, who here knows about The Avengers? You know, that movie that's not very well known and may have attracted some mainstream attention over the past couple of weeks. It's based on this comic book that nobody really cares about. It's okay if you don't, it's not that big of a deal.

Well, after this latest plot, a very nice point was brought up: The Thor is going to need a group of Good Guys to keep the Purists and crazies at bay. With the way things have been going thus far, everyone has been too splintered and relatively ineffective against the real threat. And seeing how well the Avengers, Normandy Crew, and a few other people worked together against Loki, there's going to be a meeting with everyone. Eventually, our goal is to ICly have an even bigger team opened up to other players/characters.

Now what does this mean for us?

Obviously, it wouldn't be fair to push anybody into doing something they don't want to, ICly or OOCly, so this is going to be a plot post to go over a few different things, since the first meeting will understandably handwaved. Once we hammer out those details, I'll make a recap post so we're all on the same page again.

What the meeting will be about (In a handy list format!):

- Risk assessment of the Thor. Does it need a team of Do-Gooders to keep it safe? (The answer is 'YES' if it weren't obvious)
- Who wants to be involved in the actual team. Everyone who's been propositioned will have time to think about it before another huge get together to give their answers.
- Whether or not to let other people know/open the doors for newcomers who want to play hero. (This will eventually happen, and the ooc stuff will be taken care of by Xy/[personal profile] lightnings's player)
- Anything else you think should be brought up? Let it be known in the comments!


We also want to confirm:

- Who actually wants a part in the Thorvengers (TITLE PENDING). If you feel your character wouldn't be a part of the group, whether or not they're a part of the Normandy Crew, or if YOU don't want to be involved as a player, it is PERFECTLY ALL RIGHT to say no!
- Who would react to whom, and how-- we unfortunately don't really have the time/means to coordinate a logged meeting with so many people, so handwaving things would probably be the best.
- Anything your character can bring to the table. For example, Garrus will probably bring up previous attempts to get people together for anti-Purist talks and also his vigilante work down in the slums. This is a great time for any and all characters to bring information to the table!
- Again, anything else you can think of!


I believe that's it! The floor is open to everyone. If you know of anybody who was involved in the plot who'd like to get in on this discussion, please, feel free to spread this post around! It's a public comm for a reason! IN OTHER WORDS, PEOPLE NOT IN THE ME CAST, GET YOUR BUTTS IN HERE, TOO!

:D Any questions, concerns, etc. as always are welcome! Additionally, if I forgot something, or if I got some information wrong, PLEASE CORRECT ME!

Gotta have a good acronym. XD

Sort of related story: Almost all of our computer systems at my job have acronyms for names. We had one system that didn't actually have an acronym, it was just a word. We were always getting questions about what it stood for. We used to come up with silly acronym meanings for it when we were bored.

well at least she already knows how to make a good cup of coffee. I can almost see it happening now. "I need your signature on these forms so the Vogons and police force don't try to charge us for breaking the upper deck, ps you're running late for the usual 'reprogrammed robot rampage' in the food court."

she will, Minako will want to check on some of the people she helped evacuate as well as a few other issues.

I WONDER WHY...

Maybe, though, the two can find someone that could build another Evoker. They have to come from somewhere, right?

[personal profile] fightforthelost 2012-06-06 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
YEAH I FIGURED. And I'm always for giving everyone a chance to have badass cool moments with their character, that's part of RP! Maybe try something like grouping people into specialized "cells" run by a leader type and giving each cell a specific mission and long term goal to work towards. It might even be something that Miranda brings up herself since it's similar to how Cerberus works.
ubinunc: (surprise ➤  is that all?)

IT IS A MYSTERY... :U

with all the engineering geniuses on the Normandy who can just whip out super advanced upgrade for the ship in less than 5 minutes? you'd think they'd be able to. reverse engineering? maybe they could also work w/ Koro's collar and make... idk, Evokers that go around the wrist and don't have to look like guns?

I really, really want there to be something completely ridiculous in the Evokers. like... gum and paperclips and noisemakers.
