Plot!
Awesome awesome job with the challenge, everyone. We've been highly enjoying the posts as they've been rolling in so thank you for kicking so much ass with those.
And now... it's time for our next gamewide plot. This is completely voluntary, so your characters are not required to participate. However, they might still notice some strange things happening. There is a new forest in the area. It sprang up overnight with trees that look ancient and a lot of creatures that were previously only thought to belong in fairytales. (Everything from dragons to elves to goblins and whatever else you'd like) There will be a big bad wolf escaping from the forest and rampaging through die Festung. He will be good at keeping out of sight, but bodies are going to start turning up.
Anyone who goes into the forest to investigate might fall prey to the mischievous magic of the faerie who brought it into being. She likes to teach lessons which means she might be inflicting certain curses on those that she feels need to learn something. These lessons will take the form of some sort of play on fairytales. Whether it's a sleeping curse or turning someone into a frog (or any animal is fair game) or whatever you would like.
Now, these aren't your Disney fairytales. No one will be singing and there's very deadly potential in these curses. If your character doesn't learn their lesson or find some other way to lift the curse, any number of awful things could happen.
For some of these, a kiss of true love will work to lift the curse. But how many people in the game can say they're in 'true love'? For most, it will lift when your character figures out whatever it is the faerie intended for them to learn. This is where your own imagination comes into play. It's up to you to pick what you want your character's curse to be like and what it will take to reverse it. If you need suggestions, feel free to shoot us an email and we'll be happy to brainstorm with you.
Also-depending on what sort of curse, your character might not even know they've been cursed right away. They might just start noticing various odd things and slowly piece two and two together.
This plot is scheduled to run through March 18th, though the forest will remain indefinitely (along with the dragons and goblins and any other such mystical creatures)
