Calling all Angel Victims

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

You may be experiencing a strange sense of déjà vu. Don't worry, it's not a glitch in the matrix.

The following people are our victims, who will be split into five groups of six: ( Cut for list )

Now, what we need from each of our victims is:

1) Pick one other person on the victim list that you want to be in a group with. (Make sure they're okay with it, first, though!) That way we can simply throw together three sets of pairs.

This does not mean you will disappear at the same time as the other half of your pair, just that you'll end up in the same victim group.

If you don't care, just let us know and we'll toss you in a group.

2) Nominate your two preferred days to become a victim to the angels - IF IT MATTERS (Monday to Saturday, only. No vanishing on Sunday.). Also, if there is a day that you absolutely cannot be available to be angelled, definitely let us know.

If you don't care, and you'll be available whenever, then let us know that, too.

You MUST ping with this info by Friday midnight EST, so we can get you a full schedule of character disappearances as soon as possible. If we don't hear from you, we'll just randomly assign you to a group and a day.

Old, old, old

Now, on to the next bit. As you would have read in the last info post, we need some characters who will be alive (but OLD) in 2008 when the away teams come looking, and some who will have spent their life finding out what the angels were. If you want your character to be one of those, please indicate so below. Numbers will be limited on this.

Live through the ages

This one is not necessary for the plot, but it would provide a very unique opportunity. We may still choose not to go with it, depending on how things pan out.

Do you have a character with an overdeveloped sense of responsibility who would refuse to go into stasis? Who would choose to stay out and age naturally, dying before 2008, to watch over their fellows?

If so, you can volunteer them below. This would be the end of your character, they would die, but they would get to live a full, if handwavy, life. Think about it, and if you want to, then sign them up, and we'll let you know.

( Limitations on the handwavy history/future you develop for your character (Now behind a cut, 'cause I'm wordy )

Next post? Yet MORE information. And just a reminder, the dates for this are Monday, 10 March to Sunday, 16 March.

ETA: Anyone who needs to pre-play their abduction, can you let us know in the magically created thread that is actually UNDER the OOC? Thank you!

[please wait for OCD, thanks We have reached OCD. Go thou forth and ping.]

Yet more info! Safehouses, researchers, away teams and other stuff

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

Safehouses

The Safehouses will start from Thursday morning. They will work by having an adult or two in charge of a group of people in a largish space. This can be a common room, someone's house, town hall, the suites at the hotel, the gym, (lock in at Caritas?!) etc etc. The campus posts can be put up by students, and the adults ping in whenever they can, if availability is an issue.

The main point is to stay in groups, in a well-lit place with clear lines of sight.

There will be morning ones and evening ones - the evening ones are for sleeping, too. Those staying in the Safehouses can ping in whenever they like, with something of the feel of a slumber party for the night ones. There may be some small cracky things happening in the Safehouses to lighten the atmosphere, and keep everyone entertained.

We will be doing up a schedule of who and when for these soon.

Researchers

Everyone knows how this goes by now, but this time we'll be having research parties in the dorm computer labs as well as the library. There will be certain information found by them, both library researchers and internet researchers .

We'll be randomly picking the people who will find it, so feel free to have your character go off on wild tangents, finding all manner of bizarre possibilities, or simply find nothing at all!

These pieces of information will lead to the away teams being sent out, there to find the keys to the angels - five pieces of information that together will unlock the secret of how to defeat them.

Away Teams

There will be more info coming for the away teamers, but for now: there will be five groups, and they will start being sent out on Thursday/Friday.

Anyone who wanted to be a victim and got RNG'd out is welcome to sign up for the away teams. You must sign up below by midnight Friday EST or miss out. There will be a detailed away team post and a list of our away teamers on Saturday morning.


NPCs and you

WE WANT YOU!

We need people to play NPCs! People to play the angels and people to play NPCs in the past for our victims. We haven't decided on where each of the five locations will be yet, but the time period will be the 1920s/30s.

If you want make a suggestion as to where they end up and when, there is an OCD thread for that, too.

If you want to wrangle an angel or puppet an historical character, this is the place to let us know - we really can't do this one on our own! If you could indicate below if you
a) want to play an NPC,
b) whether you want to play an angel or a character from history, or both
c) Your availability the week of the BDE - more days you won't be available, or it will be spotty

There will be more to come !(Are you sick of this yet?)

[wait for OCD, plz It is up - have at it.]

Fandom weirdness: take five

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

Friday? Dust bunnies.

These are bunnies which try and make everything as dirty as possible! They can be any bunny size, any bunny colour, or any bunny fluffiness, but all have the ability to produce dust and dirt from thin air and can *poof* disappear right before your very eyes.
