SUP GUYS
Okay so here is a plot proposal for AEGIS. An incomplete one, though, which is where you guys come in!
The Mass Effect crew has a little something coming up that we figured could be expanded into a bigger something! Keep in mine that, as always, everything mentioned in this post is just a proposal and is meant to be talked about and expanded upon! If a player doesn't want to have his/her character involved for any reason YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED! JUST SAY SO!
Cliffnotes version:
1) Kamui from Gintama has been hired by the Purists to wreak some havoc with the microwave guns, which he'll be obtaining through his new mob boss job. He'll be distributing those to NPCs (POSSIBLY PCs, too-- still debating on that) During the month of August, characters may notice a higher rate of incidents concerning severe burns and radiation poisoning, but more on that later. Moriarty and Loki may want in on this! WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
2) While the month goes on, guns will start showing up on the streets, as will related casualties (fatal and otherwise). Dave Nails will be most likely be reporting on these and letting the general public know about it! How? By using his rad journalist janitor powers!
3) Since Kamui is working for the Purists, they'll also be getting him to kidnap Joker from the Normandy. Partly to mess with the Normandy Crew, but mostly to extract information from who they assume is their weakest link.
4) After Joker is kidnapped, the Normandy Crew will track down/figure out where he is but not before they fuck him up something good (more on that later). The proposed teams to go and get him are:
AGAIN this is only a proposal! Anyone who has any ideas can go right on in the comments and say them! IDEAS ARE GOOD!
Okay so, that's the Mass Effect side of things, where the hell does everyone else come into this?
Well, that's really up in the air, but, like I said earlier, this is where player input is really appreciated!
First of all, someone is going to get their hands on that surplus of weaponry, NPC or otherwise. Unfortunately, we have a severe lack of villains in the game, which makes it tough! We're thinking about doing temporary villain stuff, but that's another thing for another time! ANYWAY, because the Normandy Crew will be busy grabbing their pilot, they can't work on the gun distribution, or raiding/fighting the source, who/whatever that may be.
SECOND OF ALL, for those who don't know, Joker has brittle bone disease. His interrogators are going to take advantage of that and pretty much paralyze him from the waist down. It would be pretty awesome to have some science in there to fix that (like robo science).
BASICALLY the goal for this post is to cement the Normandy Crew plans, and to come up with some other stuff to tie into the whole plot. For reference, we'll have a month before anything actually happens, so we have time to get stuff done!
AND. AS ALWAYS. COMMENT, CRITIQUE, OVERTHINK, DO IT ALL! THIS IS A ~*SAFE PLACE*~

I'm good for Loki being a douchebag again and causing trouble, and honestly I don't necessarily mind how he does it? Whatever you think fits in better with the overall plot -- however I suppose there is the issue of him having a motive other than just causing trouble for the sake of it.... but then again, god of mischief and everything. :|a So I suppose that's something to ponder over!
Obviously I'm good with Liara being on Team Girl Power; to kind of reflect Noah's comment up there, Liara would also be good with information gathering if you need her to do anything like that. In fact, maybe she can work with Miri on it?
Allllsssooo I would want Stephen to help with the Thorvengers stuff, but I suppose I can hit Deb up with that. I imagine his magic can come in handy maybe idk.

1. It provides something of benefit to himself. This was what motivated him during the whole "let's blow up parts of the Thor!" plot.
2. He's doing it specifically to spite someone. usually thor
3. Sometimes he just does it because he can! Usually nothing terribly, you know, big and destructive though, if just for this reason.
4. He's feeling particularly
crazydepressed, moody, unstable, whatever, and he decides to take it out on the stupid little mortals surrounding him?IDK IF THAT HELPS??

Nah, it definitely helps! RE: number 4, would he distribute guns amongst ~*dem mortals*~ as kind of a display of "OH LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO IF YOU GIVE THEM FIREPOWER TEE HEE"?

and yes he kind of is a big baby but shh don't tell anyone if it isn't already painfully obvious

SO I'm assuming that once they start patrolling, Loki has MORE of an incentive to cause a ruckus? Sheepi (see above) came up with a decent idea of why Loki would have begun his little stint into mischief in the first place.
Did that... make any sense at all?
