Casefile/Plotting

[undertheaegis]

This post is for submitting issues for Aegis Force to be involved in, whether crimes to solve, imPorts to train, or conflicts to mediate. Submitters are asked to provide details of what's going on, who is involved, what leads are available, and what outcome they and other players involved would like to see from Aegis' intervention. Any members looking for something to do will then respond to the submission and volunteer their characters to be attached to the case, and plotting will proceed from there.

Cases involving NPCs or acts of nature can also be created by players within Aegis Force looking to create new mini-plots and CR-building opportunities! Just bear in mind that major events or anything involving death will require mod approval at the PLOTTING POST. Also bear in mind that as a pilot project, Aegis' scope of authority is currently restricted: investigations are limited to only cases involving imPorts, metahumans, or national security issues. Agents are not expected to focus on mysteries involving run-of-the-mill murders or petty theft, for instance, although they are not penalized if they intervene in such crimes while encountering them on patrol.

To submit a case, fill out the form below in response to this post. Someone will get in contact with you to begin plotting.

CASE NAME: Bonus points for puns and alliteration REPORTED BY: NPCs or PCs? DATE: When did this happen or will it happen? WHO IS INVOLVED: Characters involved or affected. Be sure to consult with involved players before submitting an incident for Aegis involvement! HOW IS AEGIS GETTING INVOLVED: Self-explanatory: are they investigators? Mediators? Responding to a fracas? INFORMATION AVAILABLE: What is happening or has happened that Aegis would be able to know? Is this a secret incident, or in the public eye? If this is a mystery to solve, what kinds of evidence, witnesses, and clues will characters be able to work with? DESIRED OUTCOME: Do you want this incident to be resolved by Aegis Force? Will an arrest be made? If this is intended to end in frustration for the team, how will they end up stymied?

Against Atropos

[undertheaegis]

CASE NAME: Against Atropos
DATE: Ongoing since July 2018
WHO IS INVOLVED: Everyone in the damn universe
HOW IS AEGIS GETTING INVOLVED: Currently as investigators attempting to find out more about this threat.
INFORMATION AVAILABLE: Communications on the Network have revealed that the supernatural entity known as 'Atropos' is present in this universe. Atropos was responsible for the destruction of another dimension inhabited by imPorts, with very few survivors escaping to this version of Earth. Atropos' location, capabilities and intentions are currently unknown, but it can be assumed she is hostile and an apocalyptic threat, and that she is linked to the OTO (see Casefile: Opposing OTO).

Gaining more information on Atropos and ways to protect Earth from her is a top priority. Currently available leads below:
-Post by Inanna and Cassandra, who encountered Atropos in a vision
-Post by Ruka, a survivor of the previous universe destroyed by Atropos
-Majority Report containing a coded message concerning Atropos and the OTO
-Another coded message coinciding with the start of the 'Shimmer' disaster that claimed 600 lives in De Chima: WE TRIED TO WARN YOU. RUN.
-Post by Laurie Collins - Atropos and the OTO were later confirmed to be behind the Shimmer
DESIRED OUTCOME: Not seeing the universe end.
