yes another player plot! demon possession player plot: sign-ups/plotting!
Who: Kain/a desire demon, and 3-5 others! (I'm ok with an extra-ish if it turns out that way)
What: A small player plot involving demonic possession
Where: Just outside Skyhold in the mountains
When: September 8th
Remember that trip to the Fade? Wasn't that fun? Well, someone has gotten himself a souvenir! Kain will be returning in September from his little solo trip… possessed by a desire demon (one who pestered him back in the Fade and got away... and now came through a rift to chill out inside Kain). A little bit of background for the unfamiliar: in canon, Kain is mind-controlled by the main bad guy, so he has an exploitable mental weakness, and a tendency to go around stabbing his allies when under an outside influence. It's a perfect opportunity to mess with him and his allies!
Unfortunately, the battle will lead to Kain's death.Because these death things always have to come in threes, you know. It won't be instant, but it'll be happening shortly after the end of the battle, so everything is going down in the same day/post. Per the mods, the Inquisition will want to be very very careful about keeping knowledge of the whole possession bit from the public (but there's always room for internal discussion and tension and unease of course... The demon threat is real! Maybe rifters are demons after all!?!! All the old fears about possession freaking mages out... and so on). So one small request: whoever makes the death announcement on the 8th will have to be make sure it's locked strictly to the Inquistion (or just glaze over the details and say he went down in a demon battle, keeping the full story to private conversations).
I'm going to need 3-5 people to be involved in fighting the possessed Kain (and possibly some lesser demon friends). Since I'd like to get a forward-dated post up soon, I'll keep sign ups open over the weekend, and get that post set up for sometime early next week.
I figure since this is a smaller-scale plot, I'll just add a comment below for any plotting that's needed too! Want an excuse to get your character really badly hurt by an ally? Taunted and tempted viciously by a desire demon? Here's your chance! I'm pretty open for how word gets out at the start, too, I was thinking there would be reports of demonic activity drawing folks out to investigate... and then some unfortunate NPC gets found with a lance stab wound...
(As a side note... Apologies to the entire Inquisition: Bastard the swearing parrot will be a total pain in the ass without an owner around to keep him busy!!! Feel free to let him pop up wherever at inappropriate moments after the 8th. Someone will have to look after Kain's dracolisk too. But never fear... I won't be fully leaving the game for long. I hope to re-apply with an AU soon, so keep an eye out for that in September's TDM. :) Maybe the bird will find a new friend... eventually.)
