Plotting Post: Mine Exploration

[justbeingknife]

Sup, this is the plotting post for exploring the mines on Mount Rheum! The main log post is here.

As your character may or may not know, there’s an abandoned mine on the west side of the mountain, previously blocked off by un-traversable, eternal flames. These are now unlocked! Majima will be exploring the mines and likely making some kind of network post about it later, but heck feel free to live ur best ghost miner life.

The environment is kinda sorta dangerous because of horrible fires, ash, and ghost residue. It's fiiiine.

Feel free to use the following form and this post to plot!

Majima Gorō | Yakuza 0

[justbeingknife]

Character Name: Majima
CR Wanted: Survival horror, comedy horror
CR Not Wanted: ?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
- I'm gonna be real I've always wanted to play out a cave-in with limited oxygen reserves. LET'S TELL EACH OTHER SECRETS
- I put in a monster request months ago for what is essentially RPG treasure chest mimics and I'd love to play through getting personally victimized by one. Bonus: They taste like lobster, please enable me in this terrible culinary experiment.
- Investigating the remnants of the miners and the lone woman, ofc
- Gimme that tasty F.E.A.R. CR, he knew those suits were going to come in handy eventually

[newtralize]

I'm excited to see this finally happening AND I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO DO SOMETHING WITH THE MIMICS. Mostly because you bet your butt that Newt might try to capture/keep at least one to study them proper.

If that includes possibly trying to eat one THEN WELL. Why the heck not. They can do some investigating together after the mimics of course.

Almost caved in...

[onerthes]

With Newt doing mimics, I had a thought about that potential cave in. Maybe a spell to keep it from completely caving in around them, but not enough to actually break them out. Conserve air while others dig them out. One of them injured, tight, charnel spaces with the smell of death and ash all around them?

[lovesuwithknives]

I am brand spanking new to this game, but what better way to get to know the new guy than a cave-in!

He can be injured, or not, either is good with me.

[nothinicantkill]

I will give you ALL the FEAR cr, though I have to warn you, I will be slow. I'm working now, so my brain gets sucked dry during the week... :(

Also, limited oxygen reserves likely means they're stuck down there for a while, which also means people are gonna get hungry (and thirsty, but shh). Say they take down one (or more) of these things because it's attacking and eventually they have to eat it? YUMMY

[incandescentfaith]

Fear things...let's do this.

[shotgunyuukon]

Ouse can try to talk to the woman. More than that, she can try to Glance her, which will give her a good look into the moments up to and situations surrounding the woman's death. She can do it with all the miners, too.

Only problem is I don't know what that all is, and maybe ghost mindreading fuckery is cheating but Ouse's good for it :V

[newtralize]

Character Name: Newt Scamander
CR Wanted: Any...? All??? Having a jolly (read: probably not jolly) good time in the mines
CR Not Wanted: What could possibly go wrong?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

-Newt can't do much about the fire part for others or for himself.
-He can cast bubble head charms for people. The description mentions they should be basically upside down fish bowls, so it'll give people some clean air and avoid ash in their eyes if they want that. Newt will be using it for himself at least and offer to others.
-Please don't let this dumb man wander off on his own.
-He won't keep any gold, but he'll probably pick some up to examine it and regret it.
-Newt doesn't have a strong aptitude for spiritual energy or anything, but he'll probably be able to feel some of it since HP world does have a lot of things like ghosts and what not existing so I imagine that he'd be able to get a feel of some of it.

Spider-Man (Peter Parker) | y'know the canon i know you do

[quipsandthwips]

Character Name: Peter Parker, though in this he'll be Spider-Man.
CR Wanted: survival/heroing/anything tbh
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Peter's a sticky boy who can stick to cave walls and help people swing across stuff and etc. etc. Generally if you need him for something, lemme know, because he'd definitely go along in case anyone needs a hand. He also has a strong spider sense so if you want your character to almost get burned alive and for pete to pull them to safety, he can also def help ya there.

Vira-Lorr Plotting OTA

[onerthes]

Character Name: Vira-Lorr
CR Wanted: Fellow Explorers
CR Not Wanted: Can't think of anything specific but will let you know
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I'm looking at this as a nice surreal horror exploration. Vira-Lorr will, provided she gets some information from Majima, be coming as a magical combat expert with some familiarity in spiritual matters.

I'll inquire with the mods about anything unusual she might see beyond the standard, but it should be a nice, creepy little adventure.

Fool's Gold: She's not the type to take the gold herself, but I wouldn't mind if someone else did around her and thought she was burning.

[justbeingknife]

Hellooo did you need some info?

wow what a nice, non-forbidding abandoned mine, what could possibly go wrong

[ishisstrength]

We should do more with Airy & Vira! I am really enjoying their CR so far and Vira keeps Airy on her toes lol. Airy might accidently pick up gold but she wouldn't unless there was a lull... she's naturally curious. I'd also love for Vira to learn about Airy's magic too, since it's kinda weird.

Lance | Voltron

[azurestar]

Character Name: Lance
CR Wanted: ALL OF IT.
CR Not Wanted:

Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I love anything where characters have to survive and make hard choices. I'd like to give Lance something cool to do, some way to play to his strengths and talents. He's the sort of guy that'll throw himself in harm's way to help/save someone even after only knowing them for a short time, so he'll be good for hero-ing.

Stuff that Lance can provide:
- high tech paladin armor with a booster pack. jump over crevices with ease and save people from falling to their deaths!
- his suit is also made for space, so it has air and oxygen recycling abilities. If there's a cave-in situation he can turn that on and not use up other people's air, but his suit's isn't unlimited either.
- his bayard can be a rifle, sniper rifle and a broadsword. so unlimited energy blast ammo to fight monsters?
- comedic relief! gallows humor and goofing off are his specialty. He is also skilled with puns, but it's not his go-to.
- despite being the goofball of Voltron, Lance is pretty smart, he has a good sense of direction and he can problem solve on the fly, and he also has enough smarts to get into a school that people have to be at the top of their class to enter. So if there's a problem presented that needs a creative solution backed up with hard logic and facts, he can provide if pressed.

Re: Lance | Voltron

[onerthes]

Oooh, out of curiosity, would Lance be foolish enough to pick up one of those cursed lumps of gold in this place?

[grotesqueobserver]

Character Name: Vigil
CR Wanted: ALL THE THINGS. I'd especially like to see him using his abilities to help out the team, maybe rescue someone? I also wouldn't mind having him discover the hard way that his stone skin doesn't do anything against Deerington monsters.
CR Not Wanted: I don't want him to die, but I'm up for just about anything else.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
- Vigil can control earth/stone, so he'll be handy to have around during a cave-in. But using his power to tunnel through earth is both tiring and takes a long time, so there's still plenty of room for tense trapped CR! :D
- He can also see in pitch darkness, so he can scout if/when the lights go out.

[nothinicantkill]

Maybe they should get TRAPPED

o noes

Azwel | Soul Calibur 6 | PLOT WITH ME

[lovesuwithknives]

Character Name: Azwel
CR Wanted: Any. All. He loves all of you.
CR Not Wanted: Don't kill him, yet, he just got here.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

-As I stated earlier, what better way to get to know the new guy than a cave-in?
-Azwel can fight beasties or even other people, as his weaponry is 100% magick.
-He's really intelligent in a place filled with really intelligent people, but he's got mad 1500s-era survival skillz.
-Drag this man out of his comfort zone and into someone else's! Make him tend the injured/oxygen-starved/etc.

[nothinicantkill]

They should get up close and personal, have a talk about Cable's TO virus, stuff like that. The stuff should practically fascinate Azwel.

Justine & Airy Miller

[ishisstrength]

Character Name: Justine | the Dresden Files | ishisstrength
CR Wanted: Survival horror, Darkness horror, etc.
CR Not Wanted: This isn't a thing.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- I'd love for Justine to get stuck in the mines somewhere. She doesn't get trapped often and this seems like a great moment for her to get close to new CR or show off her fancy ability to panic.
- Justine will likely get hurt. Nothing to serious but something with a lot of blood.
- She isn't much of a fighter and she's going on this trip to assist Majima the best she can. With that in mind, Justine will be setting up a first-aid tent outside of the mines. Which means that animals from the area could attack and smell blood or what have you, if you wanna do anything with this let me know. Justine isn't a doctor but she can keep people alive until either a doctor arrives or they get off the mountain.

JUSTINE'S OPEN POST

---

Character Name: Airy Miller | Original Character | imaginationswoes
CR Wanted: Survival horror, the ability to use her more erratic powers and mess something up, Cute horror (Airy is often adorable and awkward), body heat or being trapped.
CR Not Wanted: ?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- Airy is used to being underground but that doesn't make it any less unsettling. Maybe something with slight claustrophobia? or darkness and tension, even if they find a large cavern.
- General mayhem but Airy being able to show off her awesomeness. She can create light but she'll be distracted with the ash.

AIRY'S OPEN POST

Cable | XMCU

[nothinicantkill]

Character Name: Cable (but you can call him Nate)
CR Wanted: any and all plz
CR Not Wanted: why would I not want all the delicious cr?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
- How about a WARNING? If you choose to play with Cable, I will definitely be slow as hell, so backtagging is gonna have to be friendly. (New job=no brain)
- Going to try to help out Majima with FEARing, whatever that may entail. Likely helping people (which he would do anyway).
- anyone stuck? He can try to use his bionic arm and his telekinesis to help you! Though, 'try' is the important word here.
- Anything, really. I'm open to anything.

Re: Cable | XMCU

[onerthes]

Back Tagging's always fun. Thinking of doing a top level shortly, but would you be up for partial cave in/holding things together until others can get to them?

[incandescentfaith]

Character Name: Rei Hino
CR Wanted: Pretty much open to anything, but I'm not wild about cave-ins.
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

-I'm mostly interested in exploration and environmental horror overall.
-Maybe a monster attack
-The extreme negative feeling in the area will definitely weigh on Rei very heavily. I'd like to play out her really freaking out about it, and the effect it's having on her b/c of her spiritual sensitivity.
-Open to just about anything!

[shotgunyuukon]

Swoops in dramatically and carries Rei back out bridal-style from the pile of miner ghost corpses.

Or maybe piggyback.

Okay, okay, just convening on what the spirit sense is picking up?

Ouse Kurosawa | Fatal Frame V

[shotgunyuukon]

Well since Heather is an absolute no-go with all the fire trauma...

Character Name: Ouse Kurosawa
CR Wanted: Anything! New people especially welcomed!
CR Not Wanted: ... Uhhh nothing I can think of off the top of my head
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- I mean. She is a ghost...
- But mostly she has a very sensitive sixth/spiritual sense, and can try to help out matching equipment with dead miners, talking to their ghosts, and otherwise being completely unruffled by literally everything
- That said, as a human, she carries no weapons, is mostly defenseless and vulnerable, and very nice so people will probably want to protect her
- Cave-in sounds interesting but she might be the one person that's like. Oh, someone kill me, I can just go get help. As funny as it is though that might be put to a consensus.
- Eating a mimic sounds hilarious, who wants a lobster broil?
- But mostly she is here for all of your "what does the ghost say?" "RING DING DING DING DING DING" moments.

[onerthes]

I'm up for being mystical muscle while the actual ghost spear-heads investigations if you want to have creepy conversations with screaming, burning souls...

- TL: here

Osomatsu Matsuno | Osomatsu-san/Cartesio CRAU

[relieable]

Character Name: Osomatsu Matsuno
CR Wanted: everything
CR Not Wanted: i want all kinds of CR
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: new CR would be good. Osomatsu's not really that much of a daredevil, and he wouldn't be wandering the mines alone, but he's got weird strong superpowers that make him pretty durable, and good for lifting heavy things. i'd love to show off these powers since he hasn't had an opportunity to yet. i don't know if i'll toplevel, but i'm very open to tagging where you are. please don't hesitate to let me know if you want me anywhere.

Elizabeth | Bioshock Infinite

[uncaging]

Character Name: Elizabeth
CR Wanted: Any and all!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: She's along for the ride, so I'm up for any adventures she can go along with and disasters she can get swept up in. This would also be an interesting opportunity to use her powers (she can open tears to alternate universes and bring small objects through), which would be the first time she's really used it in a pinch here. She's never been underground before and she will be excited and nervous in equal measure.

Re: Elizabeth | Bioshock Infinite

[onerthes]

Actually, I would enjoy using this as an opportunity for the two of them to finally see each other's powers at work. Maybe this would be a chance to help get the two of them out of a jam (so they aren't always getting each other in trouble.)

Top Level if you end up wanting to try something.

sabrina spellman | chilling adventures of sabrina

[casts]

Character Name: sabrina spellman
CR Wanted: survival, horror, survival horror, magical misadventures
CR Not Wanted: n/a

Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

— i'm super excited for the environmental horror, exploration and investigation fun; sabrina has medium abilities so she can sense, see and speak with ghosts
— that said because she can sense this stuff, she'll probably be under a lot of stress/easily spooked based off the general feeling of the area
— would anyone be interested in helping a tiny witch astral project? i figure it might be a fun route to try for the cave-in though she'll quickly be overwhelmed by her power warping before she can do much
— salem won't be with her at first but after the cave-in, he'll magically show up to try and help because familiar :')
