Player Plot Request
Player-run plots are integral to Arda Marred. We want all of you to have a chance at making an impact on what happens here. If there's something you want to do, please share it! We also encourage checking out the locations page and bestiary for inspiration! Think of a plausible way to introduce a swarm of tribbles? Hey, you never know unless you ask, right?
Plots must be approved ahead of time. Fill out the following, and wait for approval before implementing your plot.
Plots must be approved ahead of time. Fill out the following, and wait for approval before implementing your plot.
Some things to keep in mind:
✦ If you suggest a plot here, please be prepared to take charge of that plot.
✦ Plots should have an opt-out option whenever possible. People can notice what is going on around them, but they shouldn't be required to thread anything out.
✦ An idea for a major event that does not have an opt-out will require more consideration by the mod team and possibly a game-wide vote.
What would you like to do?
Here is where you give the general idea of your plan, such as "A bunch of Orcs attack Deepwood"
When do you want to do it?
Give a start date and an end date. These can be estimated for the time being.
Will this plot cause any lasting changes to the game or it's player characters?
If yes, describe what that outcome would be. Such as "This will turn Hobbiton into an island."
Do you need control over NPCs? Which NPCs?
If you need control over NPCs for this event, let us know who and what you plan to do with them. Do you need to invent an NPC for this event? Let us know what you have in mind.
Is there an opt-in/out? What is it?: If your plot functions with an opt-in, explain it here. If there is an opt-out option, explain what it is. If not, explain the consequences of the plot's conclusion. If there are major changes, we might have to take it to a vote.
Briefly describe how you expect things will happen during the course of the plot:
Give us a paragraph explaining how you think things will go down when the plot gets rolling, from start to finish. For example:
"It starts when George pokes Mr. NPC troll in the eye. Because Larry already told Mr. NPC troll where he lives, he's going to attack Rivendell with his troll clan on the night of the full moon. There will be two main trolls coming from the north and the south. The north troll hates fire, and the south troll is afraid of water. Clues will be given to help the characters figure this out. Hopefully they defeat the trolls on the same night, and everything should go back to normal after some rebuilding."
