Timeline, Mission Info, and Plotting Post

As of this post, the party log for the 15th is now up, and we've now added the Missions Log as well.

Things will be going generally well for any party-goers until about 10PM, so if you’d like your character to show up and have a lovely time, just make sure they leave before then. But come 10PM, the Misery will make its giant, rolling, crying, power-nullifying appearance, and that will kick off the last wave of the kidnappings. (Note: to those who are being mind-controlled to do their kidnapping — they’ll have to get their victims out of mile radius range of the Misery before their powers will work, if they’re going to be using any!)

Those being mind-controlled and their kidnap-victims will be clearing out to the UE within the hour, but they’re not being secretive about it anymore. If anyone manages to follow them, they will be attacked by the Border Patrol that are picking up their last round of victims — but they can be followed in stealth. Any rescue attempts, such as Ed Elric’s still-open rescue attempt, before the official, coordinated attack will fail, but characters are certainly welcome to make the attempt. Either way, it’s highly recommended that someone keep an eye on where the UE-and-victims group heads, so they can report the location back to the Transports and Initiative.

By the 17th, the Initiative will have gathered enough information to begin the missions in time, to weaken the Holding Compound’s defenses and minimize their resources. Sign-ups for these are now closed, but those who signed up already can find their assignments in the comments below, and do any plotting with their teammates in their respective threads. Questions about the missions are also welcome there. There will be a log for the missions up by no later than the 16th.

The rescue mission and distraction team will be shipping out on the 19th, and anyone who signed up to look for information about the UE will be alerted before then as to their results. The log for this will also be up no later than the 18th.

And finally, remember that any characters going into the Holding Compound during the rescue must be nullified, or else risk tripping the alarms! This will be ICly announced to all the Transports participating in the rescue and distraction teams, along with the fact that Jesse Pinkman can nullify powers. Anyone who would like to enter the UE Compound without triggering alarms should see him, either before or during the mission. During the trip into the UE, Jesse will be located outside the Compound, just outside the nullification range. It should be noted that Pana is on Hiatus at this time, and this will be handwaved or backdated. Please contact Pana if you would like to backdate something with Jesse.

All Transports will be safely back in Exsilium on the evening of the 19th, and shortly after (depending on when our info-planter pipes up), news of the impending nuclear strike will spread. The Initiative will ask all Transports not to spread word of it to the native Exiles, and the move to the moon base will begin on the 21st.

This post can be used as a general plotting post, if kidnapees would like to find specific rescuers for the log on the 19th, or if rescuers want to team up, or if distraction team people want to plan specific carnage! Have at it!

Just to make sure I've got everything straight, for the rescue team actually sneaking in, the power nullification includes any abilities their Weapon has, correct? How stealthy will they be trying to be? I mostly ask because Amelia's Weapon is a giant suit of fairly heavy, rather noisy medieval armor, and if there's a strong emphasis on sneaking she may decide to leave the armor behind.

Initiative given Weapons from a character's arrival will need to be nullified as well, so yes, that means her armor! Stealth is better prized than clanking for the rescue, so she may see it in her best interests to leave the armor behind.

Question! What if a character wants to warn the native Exiles in spite of the Initiative's request?

They can! Warn about the bombing, or warn about the kidnappings?

The bombing, Miss Sharon.

Sharon says, according to Miss Slyvey...!

He is fine to go telling people, and I hope to goodness he can handle the disbelief, the panic, or the hurt that'll rain down on him knowing that there is no current conceivable way to save all those people. (Maybe a few!)

Good way to learn they've got UE soldiers along the coast though, am I right>

Oh my, that is what happens when you get someone who knows nothing about nukes to warn about a nuke attack. Maybe someone could sit on him or knock him out. And by maybe I mean that would be beautiful and I'm taking volunteers. HELLO KEVIN CR. XD

Hahaha, hey, it's a good thing to use for CR jumping! (I can toss Collette at him for a very distraught version of this, should you like, but I bet buttons you will find many willing for this task! Beren with Break, perhaps?)

D'aww, Collette. All the betting. If there are more than one volunteer, they can take turns at sitting on him. :')

Guardian Angel of Britain during Britain's nuking. It's going to be GREAT!
