This opt-in plot will span the month of October and end on Halloween.
It will feature a number of small spooky encounters leading up to a large encounter near the end of the month.
Warning: This content may be graphic, disturbing, or upsetting in nature. Proceed at your own risk and read all trigger warnings. Each encounter will be different and have individual warnings, but as a whole this plot will contain themes of: body horror, gore, blood, altered mental states, clowns, disturbing imagery, and potential character death. This plot will contain spoilers for The Magnus Archives through Season 3
What is happening?
Something or someone has found their way into Eerie Harbor. Since the beginning of the month, rumors have started to fly about missing persons and a strange sense of unease has settled over town.
There will be a series of spooky encounters posted weekly that your characters can experience via thread, on the networks, and during offscreen discussion if you wish! With one exception, thread encounters will be standalone events between a character and the_stranger_, though if two characters wish to share an encounter at the same time in a three-player thread with the_stranger_, that is possible as well!
Though not all encounters are fatal, there will be an opportunity to have your characters get killed/become a ghost/get permanently removed from game (dropped via spooky murder) during this plot! Death can be long term, short term, permanent--it’s open for brainstorming!
If you would like to pursue a line, use this contact post or contact Riddo on the Discord server! Certain lines may need mod approval. After the end of October, all effects will be reversed except for pre-discussed drops.
Due to the horror nature of this plot, all trigger warnings will be tagged. Any graphic or triggering content on the network and in threads will be hidden behind a cut. Player boundaries and limits will be discussed and respected, as everyone should have fun! As this is opt-in, no death or harm will come to your character unless it is explicitly discussed. Any interactions with the_stranger_ can be considered part of this plot.
