terminal scavenger hunt

[melnik]

Hi, expi! As I'm sure many of you know by now, there has been an IC discussion going on re: forming several groups to go seeking out the terminals. Root (computation) suggested to Miller that he take charge of organizing these groups while she would work on organizing the technical side. They are specifically interested in doing the reset after making a backup of the current system. So, just making this post to let the plotting commence!

Obviously this is a player organized sitch, so please feel free to ignore and it and completely do your own thing if that works better for you!

But for those who are interested, here's the basic rundown right now:

- Groups will be assigned by general scouting location (Aldrip and surrounding area, Ketsora, Lorentia Cave, Desert, Pessiria Forest/Rumpitur area, Ruins).

- STEM club will be providing a telemeter to each team which will provide a signal helping lead them to the terminal.

- Communication will take place via the STEM club's established darknet to keep details as secure as possible; characters who can’t already access it will be provided access. Spock, Kirk, and Pike will be acting as support and coordination for everyone.

- ICly, Miller will be looking for at least one tech-savvy person for each group and at least one battle-ready person (but preferably more); he would favor characters going to certain regions based on their own background in game or in their own canon (e.g. he's from an apocalyptic underground society, so he knows how to navigate underground), but we can pretty much flub anything based on your preference.

- If your character wants to be in a group with another particular character or characters, just let me know you'd like them to be paired together!

- If you have a preference for a location you either want your character to go to or don't want your character to go to, also let me know! If no preference is given, I will RNG your character into a team. The idea was originally for 6 teams, but if we get too many people, we'll just have more teams!

- Want to be involved and your character hasn't talked to either Root or Miller? Totally cool to handwave that interaction with Miller! No need to ask my permission. But feel free to add me on shomonkai or hit me up in the game discord @ seraphita2033 if you need to hash anything out.

For the sake of not slowing down the event, sign ups will close on 9/20 at 12 pm PST (GMT -8) at which point I will respond to you with your team assignments! But there is, of course, no time limit on what you devide to do with it. Happy searching, Chosen!

Feel free to use the comments below to plot out things amongst yourselves, not limited to but including trying to throw a wrench in these plans completely.

I'd be ok with splitting the party! It sounds like we don't all have to land at the Ruins then, and if you'd like Gray you could have Seimei land at the Ruins to do your thing, and maybe Ange Izuku and Minato can land at a different terminal? Either way as said I will roll with anything, Minato is just stapled to Ange's side is all so I'll probs just go with whatever Jelle decides LOL...

I'd be fine with that. I'm not particularly invested in any specific terminal locations, so I'll go with whatever works best for everyone, though I'd definitely love the chance for Izuku to spend time with Ange and Minato too.

I wouldn't mind a split up after the teleport if that's the easiest way to make this work! And if Izuku wants to end up with Ange and Minato post-teleport, that's also totally cool with me! So if we'd go with that, we could do:

- Split threads of the groups of two (Minato + Ange, Seimei + Izuku) looking around Aldrip
- A thread with the four of them regrouping to head into the mauseoleum
- Them being split up during the teleporting from that location, Seimei ending up at the ruins terminal with Douman and Minato/Izuku/Ange ending up at one of the relatively more chill terminals?

I'm just spitballing here to make it a little more clear, let me know if anyone has any specific wishes, we can always adjust it!

This sounds good with me!! I think we might be good once Gray signs off? But otherwise yes we can definitely get the balls rolling with the split threads that have the groups of 2!
