FLASHPLOT SIGNUPS
Jul. 20th, 2016 02:30 pmPlatinum here. So, for those of you who missed the last announcement, we're going to be instituting something called Flashplots. These will be short, simple, optional plots designed to wrap up in less than fifteen posts.
Think of them as short scenes for a single character or a small group of characters. They won't be anything world-shaking, more along the level of running across a mugging, stopping runaway meteor from hitting a ship full of orphans and puppies, pulling people out of a fire, or something like that. In short, they're rather like the establishing character moment of a comic, where the first page or two has them defusing some kind of crisis before moving on to the actual plot.
They'll mostly be designed for one character to handle and we can deal with more, but probably no more than three to a plot for speed reasons. These are, after all, supposed to be short action scenes.
A Flashplot will count as a plot credit for AC purposes.
When you sign up, make a note of whether you're signing up for a single or you're open to share. If you've got a preference for what you'd like your character to do, mention it and I'll work with you. Otherwise, your characters will just go through a short, random adventure designed for them to succeed.
If you have any questions, ask inside.
