OOC: Creepers


OOC: Creepers!



And now we're introducing Creepers as well as other things.

Creepers

One of the most "delightful" parts of the Minecraft franchise is the Creeper. The bane of many a miner, they are completely silent until they're close enough to explode and all you hear is a fuse before you're thrown back with some serious damage. Especially if you're not armored.

In game they've already done some damage. They were first seen by Craig Boone and Tauriel while they were on patrol, and Charon saw the first fatalities caused by them (as reported by the news). There were also dim sightings during the resort's celebration.

Now an unlucky vampire (as manned by Koko) will have the first direct encounter with them. If anyone wants to plot with her on that you can hit her up on the comments below.

The creepers here are going to look something like this, and be completely undetectable even to the finest ears until they're close enough to do damage. They'll only come out during the night and early morning, and somehow vanish during the afternoon and day. They're always a risk in the tunnels, and will be fairly uncommon above ground.

The people of Quadratus are used to a harsh environment and really weird circumstances, so they're not going to want to leave. A good way to influence the current political debate for further expansion and exploration would be if the current residents came up with a way to keep the immediate village (and spider fence) safe. It can be noted that dogs (and people evolved from dogs) don't like to be around them, even if they can't hear them something puts them off, and cats (and people evolved from cats) will make a creeper turn around and go the opposite direction. The information about dogs is known, and about cats still needs to be discovered (that's open game). It takes three shots with a gun or arrow to kill a creeper, and they deteriorate after death.

Some good in game solutions, maybe more than one, will be implemented into the setting.

More

Now that we've said that, some game settings are going to be expanded on with recent additions (like the drugs and the minor diseases) added for constant plot resource and made into their own pages for easier navigation. The most recent addition is more information on organized crime. We're still open to recommendations for things to include from other fandoms that are represented in both the alternate reality of this world and in the people that have been brought in. Medical supplies, unusual domestic animals, pests, you name it.

Narvin would help put him out, because he knows from personal experience how unfun it is to be caught in an explosion.

Unless he figures out that Dorian is a vampire. In that case, he would probably start throwing on extra kindling because he has a grudge against vampires. :(
somepartsbroken: (☆ - cause ya know I'll)

[personal profile] somepartsbroken 2014-07-28 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
Naaaarvin dont be that way.

[personal profile] timesbureaucrat 2014-07-28 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Narvin's a butt who holds grudges. (A vampire army nearly killed him in one episode.)

Just don't feed him any vampire blood or else he might turn into a giant dog. /peculiar canon

Oh god Narvin man, no. That blows.

Is that all timelords thing? Because that is useful as fuck to know.
timesbureaucrat: (smile)

[personal profile] timesbureaucrat 2014-07-29 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
There's other vampire lore in Who, too. Like, vampires are known to Time Lords as the Ancient Enemy, and Rassilon fought a war against them when Time Lord civilization was first being founded. (In some parts of canon there's implications that the vampires were innocent and Rassilon was just a genocidal racist dick. And in other bits of canon, the vampires were evil and destroying everything. Who canon is just all over the place. But Narvin believes the version where Rassilon is a hero and not a racist dick, whether that's true or not.)

In Narvin's canon it's all Time Lords. In the episode with the vampire army, the Gallifreyan army would drain captured vampires of their blood and feed it to selected troops to devolve them into giant feral doggie creatures to use as shock troops. It's an alternate timeline, but the implication is that the AU happened when Rassilon, instead of defeating the Great Vampire (which is part of tv canon) decided to become a vampire instead so he could gain immortality and thus triggered a massive war between the vampire Gallifreyans and the non-vampire Gallifreyans. So presumably it would effect Time Lords in the proper timeline the same way.

Excuse me while I take notes of useful things here.

Have I told you I love you of late?

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-07-28 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't want to bogart all your time so I'ma not offer to put him out (or I would), but if you want someone to drink from that's not a rat Niko's a good guy to go to for that.

NIKO YOUR A BRO.

YEP HE WILL NEED SOME BLOOD AND Niko may be the man for the job. He may just send Niko to collect some brothel girls. They make the best snacks.
vengeance_driven: pb, gun (►►that is indeed a chopper)

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-07-28 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Just don't kill 'em bro, he likes ladies he can pay. They're good company when he's feeling self-loathing and unloved.
somepartsbroken: (☆ - Yep I got lasy)

[personal profile] somepartsbroken 2014-07-28 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Thats why he said ladie, so he doesn't take too much from any of them!

Same for Dorian, even if he's the creepy guy that will pay for just cuddles.

ADDITIONAL QUESTION modly type one: Would you rather a space on a group log (we're thinking of putting one up) or posting first on the network to say "WTF Stay away from the woods!!!"
somepartsbroken: (☾ - I myself did not)

[personal profile] somepartsbroken 2014-07-29 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, I would say that would cut down on spamming but, hell both would likely encourage more tagging?
vengeance_driven: game, hand (►►da bomb)

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-07-29 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, what I was thinking (and I'm more about encouraging tagging, people seem to be doing well with log posts to motivate)
endsorrow: (ᘒ talking of michelangelo)

[personal profile] endsorrow 2014-07-28 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
WELL UH Braska can do that. he can definitely do that

there is literally a spell tree called Water in FFX

and he knows healing spe--...

would Curative magics harm Dorian. is he that kind of vampire??
somepartsbroken: (☆ - my wife is)

[personal profile] somepartsbroken 2014-07-28 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
He is dead so I am not sure that healing would work on him. But I doubt it would hurt him any. But yesss water and healing would be helpful thank you~!
