5/28: So here's the deal -- I've been setting up a plot with Heaven's Gate and some other awesome rpers with the eventual goal to have it running on its own steam with little in the way of meta interference (ie, specific plot goals and events, though there will be some of those and once we're better underway there will be plotting for twists and the like). The idea is that this isn't good vs bad, this is two (or more, eventually >>) sides who are looking out for their own bests interests -- and if that includes some morally grey or reprehensible territory, so be it.

Plot Setup
Players and NPCs Involved (I think I need to add some more players, which I will do eventually >>)
Current RP (which you don't need to read, it's just there for reference)

What I need

The first thing I need is people willing to put their characters on the side of Jaded and Luther. If you want to play a "bad guy" then we can fit that in, but otherwise your character will likely be an employee for either one just trying to get by. That could mean your character is a whore, a member of Jaded's security, a member of Jaded's crew (ie, someone helping to run the business and keep paperwork or whatever in order or their *cough* house clean), a member of Luther's crew (a sailor/whatever), or one of Luther's . . .less nice employees (either a runner like Zhi or some other sort of operativethingymajigger).

The second thing I need is someone either willing to play Tabart or someone high up on the other side (which could either be an alt or we can try to work one of your own characters into that role). This is going to be a RP-intensive and active role. Essentially you will:
  • Be helping to plan and drive the plot. Once I give you the basics of what's going down, you're going to be working independently against the HG group.
  • Be good at ooc communication. Part of this plot involves a little information war. So, if your side does something big that would be noticed, everyone needs to know. You'll also need to help make sure that people are aware of who is involved and whatnot, and coordinate with HG's side to make sure that side is also able to get information and whatnot.
  • Have enough free time to rp with numerous people.
  • Be interested in longtime involvement with this plot.

Send me a pm or post in this thread if you're interested!

Note that if you're playing one of Luther's goons you'll need to work with ShayRei as the character belongs to her, and also with Osric as he will be playing Luther.

Thanks for reading!



Original Post: (we no longer need clients for this side, though if you're interested in bringing your character in, let me know)

If your character is the type to hire companionship for the evening (a bow chikka), please send me/ShayRei a pm or post here. THIS IS NOT FOR ERP.

Andralyn Thatcher's prostitution ring is currently under attack (via hits and subtler, more political means) by two other rival rings. Part of the rp is dealing with her clients -- some of them are being seduced away by the rivals, and turned away by icky rumors that are being spread. Andralyn is trying to put the pieces together, and Zhavi is trying to dig up the sources.

Andralyn's ring is more high-class than not; they are whores, but they are also companionable. Clean. Upscale. Well-kept.

These clients can therefore either just be sources of information, or can get dragged into the evolving conflict. If Zhi gets ahold of them, she might even ask them (or try to manipulate them in) to do some spying for her. It is our goal to eventually turn this into a bigger conflict as the struggle of these rings for legal operation in Limsa (can pm details) slowly begin to involve other interests (notably gangs and the like) as it turns into a power struggle.

(I am in the process pming some players whose characters might work, but well uh ... yeah, it's always a little awkward, haha. Slow going, too)

Additionally, Andy's ring is mostly comprised of NPCs at the moment. So if there's anyone who would like to be apart of Heaven's Gate as it deals with the hits and the volatility of this rivalry (either on a main or an alt), do send her a pm! I believe they can also make use of crew, and mercenaries at this point in time. ShayRei is wonderful to brainstorm with, so even if your character doesn't quite fit but you're interested, don't hesitate to pm her!

Lastly, Zhi is in need of another runner-type individual to help her gather information. Due to extenuating circumstances, her maneuverability has been compromised, and she's having to keep her visibility low. I can always npc it, but it's fun to have someone to brainstorm with. Smile

Thanks for reading!

I am so very excited to see others join into this RP with us! 

As Zhavi mentioned, if you're looking join on as a companion, send me a tell and we can work you into Andralyn's ring! 

Our free company has an IC linkshell that I am opening to anyone that would work for Andralyn, the ship under Captain Vance (though really we would prefer crewmen to be in the company as our ship RP is tied to another LS) , or potentially be considered a VIP client. 

There is no need to join the Free Company (though we'd love to have you on board with us for the other end of our RP! /end plug).

I do hope this sparks some interest!

I don't have any characters who would pay for companionship, but I do have a bruiser of a Roe who has some friends for hire who wouldn't mind doing some... No questions asked work to build up a fee allies.

We could always use a few bruisers.... on either side of this story! If Zhavi hasnt contacted you already,  I could definitely see use for a character like this once the plot pushes that way! Big Grin

Dogberry's not really the type to hire an escort (there's no sport in it), but he does consider himself a friend to those whose work might not be smiled upon by those with more "traditional" values. If he catches wind of an establishment in trouble, he's likely to check it out to see what it's about. It's entirely likely he'd be the type of sucker to empathize and get involved. And who knows, with the right incentive, he could be persuaded to trade.

I um. . .

I got distracted and failed
*cough*

Seriously though, Denn and Dog? *fans self* I'll need to set up some antag npcs (or search out some volunteers) to get knocked the eff down! Plus I totally need Zhi to finish giving Denn the clothing (if you haven't already moved on from that, major apologies I didn't contact you sooner). . .but, yeah. I think we could definitely have Zhi either bring Denn in herself or recommend Andralyn to hire her. We're working on pulling in a couple other people who I think would really work to bring Dog in. . .if not, perhaps we can work out a past business relationship between Dog and Andy (the ring aside, she runs a business and is in need of material things -- some of which might be illegal and require the services of a smuggler, we can discuss that), which could maybe be what has him paying attention to the rumors?

WE CAN TALK. DEF. Whee, I'm really excited. Um.

Here's the basic plot setup -- still working out some kinks, but please do check it out! <3

I'd say driven away by the rumors also a change of attitude.

Dog has interests both legitimate and black market. He can fill either role, or both, for the plot if needed. Maybe become a helpful, yet uncertain element due to pressures being put on by the Maelstrom and those with interests in shutting down Heaven's Gate.

Laststander: OMG, would you be willing to have Denn work for the guys who are trying to take Andralyn out?

Forbie: how long ago would you say his last encounter with one of Andralyn's people was? Zhi just assigned Del & D'ly to follow up on some rumors (and some whores spreading the rumors teeheehee), so it's definitely possible -- if it wasn't too long ago -- that one or both might run into Pyralis, which would then lead to *ahem* talks. >: )

Dog: That sounds perfect. We still have some brainstorming to do in regards to movements being taken by all sides (as you can see from this thread, we're just moving all the starting pieces into place), but that hint of untrustworthiness is definitely some friction that could lead to some kickass do-or-die moments. Hmhm, let's see what Rei has to say when she comes back into the thread. Big Grin
