For those of you that have seen the Current and Upcoming Plots topic (which should include all of you that have applied and been accepted, so far), you’re either feeling a bit confused as to what we’re actually roleplaying at the moment (heck, I know I am). Well, I guess I might as well actually start talking about the plots.
The prologue plot, as much as I’d like to roleplay it, isn’t necessary. Or, at least, it doesn’t have to be the first thing that we roleplay. I am more than happy to have it as an ongoing side-plot – while we’re actually roleplaying the current plotline (about the shadows and people in the garden), we can have the prologue plot – the Ascension, the discovery of their powers – going on in the background, if people would like to roleplay it (in the past, we’ve always done it very linear and made it up as we go along, with the only thing actually set in stone being the Rite of Ascension and the whole transformation thing with the hair afterwards). I’m not going to force anybody into it if they don’t want to.
Anyway, at the moment, the current plot that I’m thinking about is that they’re starting to have suspicions about the priests, or at least more so than they do at the moment. They’re beginning to connect more with one another, and they’re beginning to get used to the fact that they have powers and need to practice them away from the priests. For a lot of them, the secluded parts of the garden are the best places to do this, if they’re not using the dome or parts of the upper level. Now, the secluded bits of the garden are closer to the forest that surrounds the Temple – the forest that holds a variety of dangers, most of which are in the form of nymphs.
I’m thinking that this is where other characters begin to get involved with the Goddesses. Particularly characters that aren’t human, as they’ve lived longer and will know more about what happened to the original Goddesses. I’m going to wait and see if we can get the remaining Goddesses filled before we do begin the plot, because we’re going to need somebody to play the nymph(s) or other creatures (I would, but at the moment my other character on this account is going to be a demon, so… xD).
But, hey, if you have anything you want to add or suggest, feel free to. =) I’d be happy to take them into account and quite possibly include them in the roleplay, too. Considering at the moment I’m pretty much just winging it.
