EVENT #04 - PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE AND COULD-HAVE-BEEN.
It's just about time for another gamewide plot. However, unlike the last one that involved a Big Bad and something being done to the city itself, this time we're going to do something that directly affects the characters. Essentially, we're going to be turning those who are volunteered into a different version of themselves!
What does this mean, you might ask? Well, allow us to explain.
For this plot, each player can choose one of the following four options for each of their characters: AU (alternate universe), future, past, or stays the same. And this is what we mean by those terms.
» AU: Pick a point somewhere in your characters canon and tweak it a bit. Then decide what sort of changes that would cause for your character. (Example: As an infant, Clark Kent was discovered by Lionel Luthor and raised as Lex' brother. What sort of man would he have become? What kind of 'Superman' would he eventually turn out to be, if any at all?) This is a great choice for those of you who have always wanted to 'alter' your character in some way!
» FUTURE: Have a younger!character that you'd like to age up for a while? Or possibly a character you brought in from an older point in canon that you'd like to make more current? This is your chance to do it!
» PAST: Basically, the opposite concept of the future idea. If you'd like to de-age your character, or play them from a previous point in their canon, this would be the option for you!
» STAYS THE SAME: And then there are those who are possibly fine with their characters as-is. If so, that's totally fine and this would be the option for you. Nothing changes, and they simply get to sit back and watch/interact with the changes taking place around them!
Also, for those who are aging up and/or creating AU versions of their characters, please note that when the plot is said and done and your character returns to normal, they will remember their time as their alternate/future self but will not retain all of the memories from that point in their own canon. (For example: Clark Kent would remember calling Lex his brother and the things he did, in Colligo, as his AU!self. He would not, however, keep the memories of his childhood as a Luthor or growing up in Smallville in that regard, etc.) The only way that is going to be possible is if your character writes entries in their journal/on the message boards. Anything written in those places can obviously be read after things have returned to 'normal'.
Now, we do have a bit before the plot is going to kick off, but we don't want to wait too long. In order to keep moving in a forward direction, we're asking everyone to please reply within one week (by ) with one of the following forms from the categories as explained above. Should you wish to change your mind about the choice you made before the plot kicks off officially, we ask that you delete your original comment here and re-submit with a new form as this is going to be our Master List of the changes the characters will (or will not) be going through.
Thanks and we now return you to your regularly scheduled roleplay!
