The following is an IC/OOC event in the loosest sense:
Prompt 01: THE MADAM (Player!)
There's a small group of men who play cards at the Mariposa daily. Each day, they get rowdy, argue, and throw some punches. But today, Maeve, the madam of the brothel, has had enough. She calmly walks up to them, holds out her hand, and tells them very clearly, to sit down and play cards quietly. While most people respect Maeve enough to pipe down, it's really eerie how fast their faces blank, they sit down, and go back to cards without a word. If you speak to Maeve about it, she'll just tell you that she knows how to handle these guys. If you try to talk to the players, they ignore you completely and keep playing.Prompt 02: BELOW DECK (Marty!)
You are killed — by a snake, by a horse, falling in the river, a shoot-out. However you wanna die. What you didn't count on was waking up in a glass room (tw: nudity implied gore, but not detailed), surrounded by other dead bodies. As if that wasn't bad enough, you find you cannot move any part of your body. No blinking, no breathing, no looking around. You're taken to a room where someone kindly closes your eyes, then puts you in Sleep Mode to repair you. The last thing you see before they close your eyes is something that looks suspiciously like a kitchen torch. When you're put back out in the Park, you will get little flashes of that time, but they are incomplete and you can't tell if they're real or not. Are YOU real or not?Prompt 03: CLEMENTINE (Dy!)
Clementine has taken a shine to you. She offers you a discount and promises to make it worth your while. But you notice that after she makes her offer, she seemed confused, disoriented. She looks around the Mariposa as if she's seeing it for what it's been in the past: a blood offering to the guests of Westworld. She starts glitching, making the same jerking movements and repeating the same line over again. "Not much of a rind on you." Maeve immediately comes over to see what's the matter, and let's you know that Clementine hasn't been feeling well. Nightmares. But any of their other girls will be willing to help.Prompt 04: BLACK HOLE SUN (Player!)
At the Mariposa, the piano begins to play one of its self-played tunes. This time, though, you're not imagining it. You remember this song. It's a very, Old West, plinky version of "Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden. Maybe you imagined it, but the very next song is, "House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals. Yeah, this place is not what it seems.Prompt 05: THE MAN IN BLACK? (Khushi!)
You've been made deputy! What does that mean? It means when a man hobbles into town, clearly in very bad shape and drops at your feet, you should probably listen to him. He tells you that he is coming to kill them all. That he's gone crazy with blood lust. No, it's not Wyatt. A man in all black with a black hat rides into town. He begins shooting people along the way, barely even looking at them when he does so. You decide to stand up against him, and unfortunately, are gunned down without mercy.
Prompt 06: ELEVATOR GO UP ELEVATOR GO DOWN (Dawn!)
In a rocky, barren area of Westworld, you find an elevator. That elevator takes you into the secret, underground tunnels of what's behind Westworld. This area, specifically, is where you will find a multitude of hosts — dead and alive — behind glass rooms. Most are repeating movements, learning lines. Some are being worked on to fix their wounds and get them back out there. You'll have to be sneaky to find out more than that.Prompt 07: END OF THE LINE (Becky!)
You are mistaken for a malfunctioning Host. While wandering off alone, you are taken underground and put into Analysis Mode. They ask you a series of questions — whether you've ever questioned the nature of your reality, would you ever harm a human. Depending on the answers to these questions, you will likely be deactivated and put into Cold Storage. (Get with Dawn on ideas!)Prompt 08: YOU'RE NOT REAL (Danny!)
While out exploring (or whatever), you run into a small family of three. Mother, father, son. The son seems unsure about you, and can't stop staring. His parents encourage him to speak with you. He comes closer, and while you try to talk to him, he doesn't say anything. Not until his parents tell him they need to go. Then he grabs your hand and tells you, "You're not real!" (He believes you are a Host, whether you are or not.)Prompt 09: WHAT'S A LITTLE SNAKEBITE? (Kei!)
Not all of Westworld is a rocky desert. Some of it is quite lovely fields and meadows. While out, you come across a rattlesnake in attack mode. It hisses and rears up, darting closer and closer to you before a small boy who calls himself Bobby comes along with a stick and pushes it back. His clothes are more English boarding school in the mid 1900s than the old west. Behind him is an older man (who suspiciously looks a lot like Anthony Hopkins) who introduces himself as Dr. Robert Ford. He tells the snake to turn around, and it does. He asks if you want to see something interesting. If you tell him yes, he'll tell the little boy to "Turn the Other Cheek" and which point, HIS FACE WILL OPEN UP, exposing the robotic insides.Prompt 10: GHOST NATION (Player!)
Riding horseback has its challenges, and not all of them involve your seat. While out roaming the lands, arrows come from out of nowhere and implant themselves in trees and your horses. The horses throw you and run off, leaving you to being captured by Ghost Nation. (Note: If you are a Host character, they will kill you. If you're in a group with both, they will only kill the Host character(s) as a way to make you behave. They will take all your gear.)
