(I'm taking some cues from our last NPC handover, here, so thanks Schnikeys for the idea!)

Wave, Blue here. As most everyone know, we sadly lost Meghan from the game recently due to IRL circumstances and since she was running Elsie, I offered to step up and take over. This is a little bit intimidating, even as someone who's already a mod, as I've never run a plot NPC before, and Elsie has a bunch of history, but I'm going to do my damnedest!

I will be starting fresh threads wise, but I still have a lot of reading to do. So it might be a minute before Elsie is fully present again, especially in a plot-serving capacity, but that's where you all come in because I would greatly benefit from a summary of key CR and links to important threads!

My general plan is to have her absence since September primarily explained by her retreating to her tree and being somehow kept separate from everyone during the Kadath event, and hopefully have her pop up in a limited capacity at Merrymeet. From there, I'll ease into things.

I do run a pretty full roster, as people probably know, so I don't plan to overwhelm myself, but I do want to have her available for CR development, plot notes and will obviously make special effort wherever the Fae come in.

TL;DR: Let me know below if your character had CR with Elsie and if you have them accessible, links to threads would be great! I will backread as much as I can over the next couple weeks on my own, either way.

You think you've private lives, think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape, I'm watching all the time


As Nyarlathotep's newly appointed Cult Leader, Marik's going to be people watching more than ever. He's always been an odd one, especially during large gatherings, where he'll simply stand on the sidelines and watch everyone. He may not be able to watch through the eyes of a person like he did when in possession of the Millennium Rod but he hasn't let that stop him. When viewing people, Marik studies their body language, listens to the tone even if he can't hear the full conversation, reads their expressions, stuff like that.

The Dark Lord asks that his new stooge servant be on the lookout people who are easily persuaded or of an unstable mind.

This is where you all come in. ♥

Would you like your character to be watched/investigated/possibly manipulated by Marik?

It can be as something simple as him hearing rumors or the tomb keeper conveniently appearing in the same locations as your character. If you'd prefer something more involved, I'm all for it! Just let me know in the comments or on discord if you'd like your character/s to potentially be a candidate for the wonderful Cult of the Crawling Chaos. You can write a little blurb of stuff he might here/see/learn that he can report back to Nyarly or we can even thread stuff out!

Monthly Plotting Post | January
Woah, it's February already! Through snowstorms, capitalism, political nightmares, seasonal depression, and more, we persevere towards spring as the world gets ever-brighter with the return of the sun. I'm so proud of all of you for what you've gotten through <3 (It's Imbolc today and I'm sentimental, sue me ;P )

Anyway, we're gonna try to keep February a little light as we roll out of a hefty event in January that many folks are still enjoying, and in preparation for shit to get very real in March!

WINTER TDM
December - February
The Winter TDM is live for one more month! Take some time to play around on there and enjoy the market, sleigh rides, ice skating, or see if you can't catch a flying horse rustler! ICly, Jean Jacket will have vacated the premises by Merrymeet. Also, this is a great time to start thinking about things you'd like to see in the upcoming Spring TDM! Should we bring back speed dating? What flavor of evil flowers should we do this time?

FEBRUARY EVENT - Dance into Spring
February 15th
Merrymeet! A celebration of the onset of spring, a holiday of romance, fertility, rebirth, and renewal. We've been voting for our potential Flower Queen for a bit now and we'll be starting round 2 of voting with our highest scorers. Because we're between Kadath and the fall of Eligos, this event will be kept fairly light, though we were considering adding an element or two of low-stakes comic mischief just to keep things interesting. If anyone has suggestions, let me know! But otherwise, it'll just be a lovely outdoor garden party with more opportunities to dress up your barbies all fancy.

CURRENT METAPLOT
July 19th
There's a couple of things to go over with regard to the current metaplot! The first is that with Nyarlathotep's identity at last revealed as Dr. Neil West, West Dream Analytics is now fully closed and no longer accessible, as is the Ocularum's original base of operations. (Well, you can still get in the meeting room, if you break down the locked door, but all you'll find is a cheeky note. This information will be immediately available to all Ocularum members, and passing it along can be handwaved where appropriate. Good thing we have a new therapist in town! Definitely drop by Dr. Harvey's clinic if you're in the market.

Additionally, since Meghan regrettably had to drop out of PH due to some life circumstances, we are currently in the process of transferring playership of Elsie over to Blue. Meghan graciously provided really extensive notes, but it's still a work in progress, so Elsie will be temporarily out of commission but returning soon!

And lastly, another heads-up that we will be enjoying Eligos' final appearance fittingly over the Ides of March. Because the demon-killing events tend to be extremely involved, this event will cover both March and April with our next new event arriving in early May. It was decided that Mulcahy will be the one leading the charge.
