And with the end of the Last Flower Girl Plot, our Final Battle is ready to go! This will run much like an arena in that there will be rolls to determine who makes it to what part, a place to do buyouts, plotting, etc, and there will be events with each roll (most of them small, a few of them bigger). The first roll will go on up June 1st. Rather than have this go weekly, the rolls will be every three OOC days and will follow the events of one IC day. There will be eight rounds total. Plotting and all else will be on one page which the rolls will all link back to. We would also like to note that while there will be events with each roll, players are not obligated to play with each one. You are all 100% free to pick and choose!

Those who signed up for fourth wall will finally get their time to shine with the beginning of these battles. Once these go live, you may all finally reveal your secret!

We hope you'll all have fun and stick with us for the true actual endgame and aftermath to follow. May the odds be ever in your favor.

That's right this upcoming plot is one for the entire game, or at least all the offworlders (which makes up the majority). You will receive more information of it with its posting, but it's with this plot that the mystery of offworlder illness will be solved once and for all.

It will start with a rebel investigation. Capitol offworlders will be coming in later. You should all be seeing this next week. Hold on to your hats everyone!

With the nearing of the final battle comes the final surprises. One surprise is something that you, the players, can affect! We're inviting back the Tributes of the past for one last show.

Unlike in the Once Upon A Dream 4th wall, all visitors will be very much real, and unlike it's 4th wall ancestor Thicker Than Blood, these characters will be engaged in the fighting and will be doing so for the Capitol. To learn a bit about what that could entail, see here.

As for how they'll be serving the Capitol and arriving... that will be kept a secret between you players who sign up and the mods, at least for a little while. For this reason, comments will be screened until looked over.

Please note that exceptions to this rule will be:
-Those originally in 13 who were sent out to do work in the Districts will remain on 13’s side.
-Those who were killed in the Capitol will likely need a case made for them (particularly Panem Natives) and will remain pending until mod approval is received.

Characters who sign up will need to do so by May 16th so they can be added into the Final Battle Death Rolls. These characters may be killed, injured, and "captured" by 13 according to how the rolls go.

Your character does not necessarily have to be a Tribute to come back. They may have been a mentor, a petitioned-out Tribute, a guest in previous 4th walls, or someone new!

To sign up, please fill out the following information:

<B>Player:</B> <B>Character:</B> <B>Journal:</B> <lj user="JOURNALNAME"> <b>Has this character been in the game before? As what?:</b> (Tribute/Mentor/4th wall guest/Other) <b>Who are they being brought in for?:</b> (Name of character. N/A if they were formerly apped in game.) <B>Contact:</B>


The actual Final Battle is estimated to begin on the first of June so gear up and get ready!

Hello Games! As you may have noticed, District 13 has hit the peak of its long term plot; Uprising. As Characters work out ICly what they’re going to do and how to take control without upsetting the citizens of District 13, we need to figure out who is doing what OOCly!

Right now, there are a few things you can sign up for;
The confrontation of President Coin; this may or may not involve assassination depending on the choices of those characters selected. 3 People max.
The confrontation of Evangeline Webb. 3 People max.
The uprising speech to the citizens of 13; this will be something meant to appease the citizens and convince them that everyone has to work together, that now when Snow is bearing down on them is not the time when they can afford to fall apart. 4-5 People max.

All the rest in District 13 will need to fight to defend those on these missions, blocking off the halls that lead to them and keeping their allies safe until the citizens can hopefully be appeased. They will have until April 22nd to reach 20 comments. This will affect the success of the Speech as far as how many and how willing the citizens of the 13 are to give up the retaliation and accept the off worlders. The aftermath of coin’s and Webb’s confrontations with also contribute to this.

It’s in the aftermath of this event that the offworlders will be in control of 13. For better… or for worse…

There will be a section for plotting, both the battle and the aftermath, with what roles the offworlders and allies intended to take to keep District 13 afloat.

Sign ups will close on April 14th. Make sure not to miss out!

You are needed for a secret plot. We need character with new or old Capitol affiliation to move forward a District 13 plot. These characters will gain info that would be important to offworlders and the war but they will find something that makes it difficult to share this info with them (at least immediately). These characters may face some degree of torment for this plot which may be further discussed upon sign-up, and will also go missing for a brief time. (This will be largely handwaved unless there is desire for otherwise.)

For this reason we are also looking for characters who will search for those who go missing ICly. There people will then be passing this message (handwaved) to District 13 higher ups.

We cannot move this plot forward without these sign ups, but we do not need many. Just a few shall do. To sign up, simply comment under the appropriate header. This will need to be done by March 13th.

A Bloody Valentine plot is LIVE! See the Dance Auction here and the Investigation here!

Mods have decided that everyone signed up may go on this mission. Investigators will have received a prompt from the following characters: Firo, Altair, Shepard, Derek, Wesker, and Ermac. These people will have told at least two of those signed up. This can however be handwaved. (You may discuss here in plotting over what that message was.)

Investigators will need to look over and through each section to find clues. Fritz-mod will be keeping up with doing replies for these clue-discoveries. Each section should have up to three investigators and no more than that.

Remember, if all clues are found before February 18th at midnight EST, the Tributes will get away with it. If they are not, the Tributes will be caught!

There will be a chance later to send the findings back to District 13.

We need volunteers for a plot coming next month. This plot is super important to endgame reveals. What we need is for characters on the District 13 side currently working as soldiers to pass along a message to Captiol-soldiers with secret rebellion sympathies.

The Capitol-soldier receiving this message must be someone willing and able to spread this message to other Capitol soldiers before the plot goes down. This way, multiple characters will be able to participate in said plot.

State here with your character and their alliance (rebellion or capitol) if you would like your character to be a candidate for this.

This message must be passed during the District Liberation(s) coming this Monday.

Heads up, players! The following plot, though instigated by District Thirteen, will affect and include characters in the Capitol as well.

As you might be aware, characters' superpowers are kept in check by the chips implanted in them. Every (former) Tribute has these chips, as they monitor other functions as well (for example, tracking and memory retention), although D13 will have disabled the tracking function. D13 has had hackers working on disabling the security systems that protect the manufacturing plant where the control tower for these chips is located, owned by Gowan Stevens in District Six. Once the hackers - who will have their own IC prompt - have disabled security, D13's soldiers will storm the plant and remove some of the restraints on people using their powers.

Unfortunately, the science behind the chips is imperfect, and D13 hasn't had enough time to perfect what it is they're trying to accomplish. D13 command has put emphasis on taking control of the powers, but the Capitol has implemented a failsafe: D13 will not be able to control who receives their abilities back, and anyone with a chip - Tribute, offworld Mentor, or even NPC Peacekeeper - will suddenly have access to unfathomable powers. And some of these powers are incredibly volatile or uncontrollable.

If your character has a chip in their arm, please comment below with whether your character has superpowers/magic in their canon, and I will RNG:

- for non-powered characters, a randomly-assigned selection of powers for this plot only.
- for powered characters, a description of any 'hiccups' or difficulties your character might face using those powers. These might include physical pain at using the abilities, difficulty controlling them, an intense mind-addling adrenaline high or more.

Gamebreaking powers will be capped. If you are unclear on how your character's powers should be capped, ask in the Questions thread. Please bear in mind that even characters who would not have had a chip (Panem natives) can still participate in this plot, but just won't have superpowers.

At the conclusion of this plot, powers will be turned off, but it's now D13 that has control over when they are allowed, not the Capitol. Powers being turned on becomes the nuclear option, as turning it on for one side means turning it on for the other. Both sides, naturally, will be working behind the scenes to try and figure out how to allow their soldiers to have powers while the other side can't.

Please go to the sign-ups below and plot! You may choose one prompt for your character to respond to; I have left them vague intentionally, but let me know if I have not provided you enough information to adequately plot out some character beats. In the IC post, there will be a lot more scene-setting and direction, and if the responsibility for NPCing for that prompt falls on the players, I'll provide enough information and leeway for you to throw Peacekeepers and civilians at your characters to your heart's delight.

The IC post should be going up on the 22nd or 23rd.

Once again, a notice is sent out to gather in a briefing room. It seems your resounding success in the last mission has earned some brownie points because there's one major change to be found here: information. For once, teams won't be flying blind in this mission. It seems the goal of the mission is far too important to wait till last minute to convey. A quick glance at the files spread on the table and mission runners will see their destination.

Recon on District 3.

Other notes mention that the main point of checking out the firebombed district is information. There's important information 13 is hoping survived the attack and it's your job to collect it. It should be easy, it's a dead district, no one to sneak past, but there will be plenty of ruble and destruction to sift through.

Now who's willing to get their hands dirty?

--

This mission will have two phases to it. The first is simple info gathering. There will be three goals that need to be achieved in regards to this information and three locations to search for it. Teams won't matter and will be decided later.

The second part of this mission is less complicated; someone didn't get their information right (or perhaps it was withheld) but the mission runners will be in District 3 at the same time a Peacekeeper patrol is passing through. The result is a shoot out. Players will be outnumbered and there is no way to win this fight, although it's certainly possible to put a dent in it. The goal will be to pull back and make it to the hovercraft in one piece, feel free to use the section below to plot out whatever interactions you might want. As long as the info was gathered and everyone makes it back on the hovercraft alive, it will be a mission success.

Note: Light character injuries are welcome, be advised that serious injuries could leave characters out of missions all the way into endgame, so plot wisely!

Sign ups will close 11:59pm EST on Thursday the 17th!

For the first time, you're all about to get a taste of what the true Hunger Games are like. Since the quell began, there have been a lot of new and interesting events and showings to match that of the Capitol's new guests. But now, for the fifteenth arena of the seventy fifth quater quell, it's time to call back to the roots of the Games to remind our Tributes and us all what these Games really mean.

( You have to make them like you. )
