Capitol Plot

[gamemakers]

Hello everyone,

Next week will be our big surprise Capitol plot. I'm trying to keep as many twists and turns as I can while still giving you guys information, so bear with me a little here and let me know if this is too opaque.

Mid-to-late next week, there will be a large event in the Capitol that will affect both Panem characters and Tributes/Mentors. Basically, your characters are going to have the opportunity to do some big things with very few consequences for them if they play their cards right. As with the jailbreak, there will be some RNGing to determine who gets caught and who doesn't.

When I reveal what the opportunity is, I'll ask you guys to propose ideas for what your characters will try to do, and I'll let you know if it's the sort of thing big enough to need an RNG (and, for example, if the proposal is "slaughter all the Peacekeepers" or something that would break the setting I would have to say no). From that point on, this plot will be in your hands, with the mods putting the appropriate brakes on as necessary. I will request that, when I announce the details of the plot, you check in with me if you're going to have your character do anything.

Powers will NOT be turned on.

There WILL be an affect felt in the Arena.

If you want your character to willingly go to District 13, now is a great time! Please let us know here.

You're free to ask questions here and I will do my very best to answer them without giving too much away.

-Lisa

D13, HERE SHE COMES! :D

Will the chances of getting caught go up with how big whatever our character does is, or will there just be the same odds across the board?

Accidentally posted this entry to the wrong account, but yes, it does change based on how big what your character does is. Have a secret convo with allies, don't even get RNGed. Break into the Stylists' headquarters and steal everything they know, RNG with low chance of getting caught. Try to assassinate a politician, you're going to be pressing your luck.

I would like to see Harold go rather unwittingly...along with Sonja. :D

So because of the nature of the way 13 is working at the start, and being such a small group, we'd like to have you choose one or thw other to start with.

Once you get settled there, you can send the next one in an arena! We just don't want you to end up with both there and then backed into a corner.

No worries! I'll just go ahead and send Harold there then to start with.
