EVENT PLOTTING POST: Rescue The King!








rescue the king.
Hello, Circle members! This specific plotting post is brought to you by Eon, the player of Julius Visconti, who asked a rather important question: Where The Hell Is Kathashun And Can I Find Him Somewhere: The Saga Continues?



the long and the short of it.
To make a long story short, Julius has spearheaded getting information from Jalin (detailed in the above link), but requires recruits in order to storm the palace to get him out! After obtaining this information from Jalin, there is a brief meeting in the Fight Ring, in which Jalin (and Julius) lay out the bottom line: The King is a powerful ally to have, and he's pretty pissed off at both the Guard and the Syndicate, and needs help getting out. The quicker they bust him out, the quicker they can turn the tide in this fight, and potentially end the fighting altogether.

It turns out Kathashun has been locked inside a sort of magical prison in the dungeons of the palace by his own Guard and needs some help getting out. He cannot break out on his own, because he is a glass cannon . . . but if a group of players want to help crack the rune-etched marble walls, so to speak, he can tear down the rest once the magic-nerfing prison is broken.

There will need to be two teams: an attack squad and a distraction squad. One group of people will go into the Palace itself to rescue Kathashun, and one group of people will remain outside to keep the Guard distracted while they bust Kathashun out. Once Kathashun is free, you will have one hell of a powerful ally on your side, and will be able to get out of the Palace fairly easily . . . so there should be no casualties.

Once he is freed, Kathashun will be taken directly to the Fight Ring to recover, plan, recuperate, and join the fight.
sign up for the damsel in distress!
Logistically speaking, this event would likely be handwaved and written up in a narrative by the mod-team in terms of the results! This volunteer post is really just to organize, volunteer your character to do something cool, and maybe earn some brownie points with Astoria! Maybe a present of some sort; who knows? You'll find out when you get home.

In terms of the El Minha narrative -- essentially, if enough people sign up, Kathashun will be freed . . . relatively unscathed. He's going to be a bit grumpy and hungry and dehydrated, but he'll be relatively okay. Jalin will also be extraordinarily grateful for some reason. Weird.

Please comment below if you're interested, and fill out this thing to make things a bit easier for Eon (and, by extension, Julius) to round up! Please use this post for plotting, to hash out specific details, or to complain about the King being stupid enough to be kidnapped. It's all up to you!

If your character does sign up, please expect them to be roughed up a bit in the ensuing battle, because the Guard will not go down easily. You can also feel free to post logs fighting out in the Palace due to this event or other narrative-fun things in this setting! An official log, however, will not go up for it mostly because Chelseamod is studying for the bar and cannot consistently RP Kathashun in another big open log SORRY GUYS, though Kathashun post-rescue will likely receive a dated top-level on the event post once he is free.

Finally, as a note, this rescue will likely take place, ICly, mid-week next week. As always, drop any specific questions in the mod questions thread below!



thank you!


And, finally finally: thanks, everybody, SO much -- for being groovy, for being amazing, and for being patience with us figuring out how best to run the events! It's a brand new game, so we're sort of figuring out the bumps as we go, and all feedback you guys have given us has been really great and will ensure things go a lot smoother as Acatalepsy grows. We ♥ you big time!

Yours,
Acatamods.

Character: Gladio
Powers: He makes... cup noodles...........
Assets For Rescue: Gladio is six foot six of muscle and never-ending stamina and vigor. He's basically a King's Shield which is a fancy word in his world for his prince's royal guard. He's been trained in combat since he was a child. He has a blade at hand and knows how to use it, but ultimately, he's a major powerhouse.
Distraction Squad or Rescue Squad? Babysitting Squad Rescue squad, because where Noctis goes Gladio has to go
