Monthly CR & Plotting Meme



It's that time again already! It's time for our current players to plot for the month ahead, get some new CR and chat together about things to come. Go ahead and copy/paste the form below. Or don't. We aren't your parents, we can only make really good suggestions. (Unless...? Nah.)

Put your name/handle in the subject line!

Contact: [plurk.com profile] ch1ps0h0y
Character Name: Emet-Selch
Canon: Final Fantasy 14 (MMO)
Info: Main villain of the Shadowbringers expansion, Emet-Selch is formerly an Ascian - one of a group of shadowy (or, I suppose, shadow-less) figures who manipulate the events of the world behind the scenes.

Magics & Familiar: Alchemy / Death, Shadow Gwiber

Desired CR: I'm always looking for people who might befriend or provide moral conflict with Emet. He is the sort of person who believes firmly in doing the right thing, but may not pick the morally "correct" way of doing it.

Known Plans: After his murder hunt, Emet-Selch has been released from prison with the punishment of having to take care of the old man from the Pure of Heart event until they pass away. He won't be participating in quests that involve explicit fighting because he doesn't want to be imprisoned again (although I'm absolutely happy to have him caught up in it by accident), but he can help with the more mundane tasks like sheep shearing.

I plan to put up a log using the TDM prompts later, once I've settled a few more threads from his murder log. He'll likely be gathering stars in order to take some back to the old man, but he'll also offer to help capture undead.

Beyond that, if any existing CR wants him to participate in the tattoo shenanigans then please let me know! If he's the one giving orders it'll probably be boring tasks like fetching alchemy ingredients though...

Other: Thank you to everyone I'm threading with for their patience with me, I love your tags and I promise being slow has nothing to do with lack of enjoyment of them.

After Hijikata became a total pain in the ass for Emet during his showdown fight I assume that he wouldn't exactly be forthcoming with explanations of what happened between him and the fae thugs if he visited him in prison, so I'm waffling over how to get the guys to reconnect...

Hijikata has been studying death magic a lot, so perhaps they could run into each other around where the old man lives (Hijikata would be there to investigate the border of the Forest of the Felled and be really surprised to see Emet there)?
emet_sulk: (74 Well well...)

[personal profile] emet_sulk 2021-09-05 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yes, I was going to message you about what to do after the fight (well, 'fight') they had about where to go next!

I think, since Hijikata HAS had a positive relationship with Emet previously, he has a better chance than some to get words out of him. But you're right that he wouldn't be forthcoming whilst in prison - because he's too busy worrying about what his friend thinks of him and convinced he's going to be given a death sentence.

So meeting outside of prison around where the old man lives sounds perfect I think! Hijikata will get to see another side to Emet as well that way, I hope.
mayoninofukucho: (Satisfied)

[personal profile] mayoninofukucho 2021-09-05 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh Emet, you got yourself in such trouble... but ultimately the punishment could be worse! Back during Morganna's potion quest the old man was really kind to Hijikata (who was trying to prevent him from being "poisoned"), so hearing that Emet is helping him will make him happy.

If you're going to make a post at some point I'll tag in there, otherwise I could make a closed prompt for Emet on mine!

Emet: "This isn't how it was supposed to go"

A closed prompt on yours is fine! It may be a few days until I can get around to writing up Emet's own log ;;;

Here we go! There's no rush though, take the time you need.

Would you be interested in these two villains meeting? So far Sephiroth has run into mostly good-guy types, so it might be fun.
emet_sulk: (06 oh don't look at me like that)

[personal profile] emet_sulk 2021-09-06 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh sure, I only know about Sephiroth superficially (only played VII remake so far) so I don't know how they'd get along but that's part of the fun!

Did you have any ideas for how you would like them to meet?
sefirot: (246)

[personal profile] sefirot 2021-09-06 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Does he have any places he hangs out? Sephiroth does wonder the city a lot. Partly because he finds his roommate annoying.
emet_sulk: (18 well you'll be fine)

He has an alchemy shop called Polydegmon's Lapidary and Brew, but when he isn't there he's shopping for groceries or raw alchemy materials. This month he's also spending half his time taking care of the old man in the woods though so he may also be near the rent stables.

Maybe Sephiroth could stop by his alchemy shop. He might find that interesting, at least enough to be nosy and check it out haha.

Awesome! I have a log post up at the moment if you wanted to tag a custom prompt there, or I can write a starter up for you. Let me know if you want me to do the latter. \o/

Okay I fell into a dark abyss mostly because I think i was getting sick for some time. BUT I still would really love to do something. I am so sorry ;; If you'd still like to do something this month I can write us up a log.
emet_sulk: (13 the world belongs to us)

[personal profile] emet_sulk 2021-10-05 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
For sure, I'm still up for doing something! Shoot me a link when you have it up and I'll tag it :3
