PLOT THREAD!
PLOT THREAD!
Alrighty, so as you know, many things have been confused. Let's start with...
1. The Power of Hoof. Blazing Star has the real one, yes? FaFa thinks it's real, so does BIG, so does Catastrophe. Is this correct?
2. The Resistance and FaFa are different groups. Yes? FaFa wants to keep the Powers locked away and guarded. Do they be live the Powers are bad? Or do they simply want to protect them? The Resistance wants to activate them. That is including the mutans, Icy, Ronan, and the Powers themselves. Which side are you on?
3. Jaaws and Whist, Leptomoris, Grondor, Eyo, Aya, and Ayearth's sideaffected power (who still doesn't have a name people) are the current activated powers. That is all of them, yes. Where are they at? (Well, we know where Jaaws is.) Are they with Catastrophe? Following Jaaws? Planning their return and revenge?
4. We need a plan for the battle scene. If I remember correctly, we have four groups. Will these four groups be fighting each other, will they have allies? Is this going to be the final battle, or will we have others? Where will the Powers be when the battle starts? Will they start it? Will they still be imprisoned? Will the fight be to free them? Are they in their instruments or merrily in cages awaiting the time when Catastrophe kills them? If they aren't dead, why did catastrophe hesitate to kill them? Why did he put them in cages?
Okay, so here are the four groups and their beliefs.
The Resistance: originally a group from FaFa. Fanned apart when they wanted to do different things then what FaFa believes. Want to free the Powers and defeat Catastrophe. Hates BIG and SOCS, and of course Catastrophe. Will tolerate FaFa, some may even still have connections with them. (This is just an idea, tell me if I got anything wronge, or this plot development ideaon how They broke from FaFa should change)
FaFa/BIG: originally enemy's, agreed on terms and decided to join together. Against Catastrophe, but want to keep the Powers locked away and inactive, maybe because they dislike them, or maybe because they want to keep them safe. Will tolerate the resistance? Will they tolerate them, or are the mutants and erdge to be different and activate the Powers too much?
Catastrophe's armey: Kill Kill Kill. Out to seek revenge on Kyndom and serve Catastrophe. Will do anything to make catastrophe leader...And keep it that way. Will kill the Powers. No mercy.
SOCS: I don't know much on SOCS, but they are like BIG, just worse on hating animals. They may become and alliance with Catastrophe, if they can tolerate all the mutants in his armey.
That's it! Any plot development ideas are welcome, and we can work together to form the last chapters of Kyndom! Also tell me if I got anything wrong. Most of these are just suggestions and ideas to the plot.

Come now, rise up--Oh my Kyngdom, Hamilton.
Rise up!
When you're living on your knees, you--
Rise up!
Tell your brother that he's gotta--
Rise up!
Tell your sister that she's gotta rise up!
When are these colonies gonna rise up?
When are these colonies gonna rise up?
When are these colonies gonna rise up?
When are these colonies gonna rise up,
Rise up!
I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory.
When's it gonna get me?
In my sleep? Seven feet ahead of me?
If I see it coming, do I run or do I let it be?
Is it like a beat without a melody?
See, I never thought I'd live past twenty.
Where I come from, some get half as many.
Ask anybody why we livin' fast and we laugh, reach for a flask,
We have to make this moment last. That's plenty!
Scratch that. This is not a moment, it's a movement!
Where all the hungriest brothers with something to prove went!
Foes oppose us, we take an honest stand.
We roll like Moses, claimin' our promised land!
And? If we win our independence?
Is that a guarantee of freedom for our descendants?
Or will the blood we shed begin an endless
Cycle of vengeance and death with no defendants?
I know the action in the street is exciting, but Jegus,
Between all the bleeding and fighting, I've been reading and writing.
We need to handle our financial situation.
Are we a nation of states? What's the state of our nation?
I'm past patiently waiting!
I'm passionately smashing every expectation!
Every action's an act of creation!
I'm laughing in the face of tragedies and sorrow.
For the first time I'm thinking past tomorrow!
And I am not throwing away my shot!
I am not throwing away my shot!
Hey yo, I'm just like my country, I'm young, scrappy and hungry,
And I'm not throwing away my shot!

YESSSS HAMILTON!!!
(May 3, 2018 - 3:20 pm)
You know Hamilton too? *excited*
(May 5, 2018 - 9:36 pm)
Yaz!! Planning time!! My absolute favorite thing! (And Hamilton! My...273rd favorite thing! XD)
So, I don't have enough time to post all of my ideas/responses right now, but I shall be back later! (Probably tomorrow evening; I have a sleepover today. Don't forget about me while I'm gone!) Thank you for topping this thread, Viola?, and for initiating the next plot outline! Can we call this the Kyngdom Council? :3
(May 4, 2018 - 5:51 am)
Yes! *punches fist in the air*
Absolutely! Prelude to the in-story version? Maybe Lycaella will undergo a little development, become a sort of diplomat... She should have an open mind already, from her travels. :3
Anyway. Questions and possibilities are on the previous page. I think I addressed most of it, but let me know if there's something else.
(May 5, 2018 - 9:38 pm)
As for Rose and Sybill, I think they should leave. If we got them out into the open,maybe got them involved in some stuff, I think it would be more likely for them to become villains like we wanted.
(May 6, 2018 - 6:19 am)
Agreed. Sybill still does need to heal, though--it's only been a few days since her ribs were fractured, maybe a week. Let's see, there was the stuff with Ciaran when it happened, then the next day they met Albero. One day after that is when Yin dies, and of course avenging her takes place in the same afternoon. So now we're on the fourth of these eventful few days, and fighting Ma'ind. I do hope Sybill has been taking care of her breathing. Maybe Rose can rig up a little something to make it easier, but they'll probably just have to go very slowly.

Okay I'm back!
Quick summary of events; hopefully this is helpful! (Starting at the Ball of Stars)
So, there was a ball where we planned to have all our characters relax for once. Attendees included Sprocket, Mina, Kristjan (is that how it's spelled? So sorry if it's wrong), Kimi Flammori, Davina Starr, Moonshadow, Ocean, Nygrune, Alexandria, and Sylenia. At the ball, Master Nova, former guardian of the Crown, appeared to Mina, who had absorbed the Crown's magic. Nova took the magic out of Mina and put it into Ocean. Since Ocean is innocent, the magic does not affect her the way it affects Mina. Nova appeared again, and Mina ultimately ended up killing Nova in the bathroom. Ocean was able to heal one of Mina's wounds from the fight, something she'd never been able to do before, and Nygrune offered to teach Ocean how to use her newfound magic.
Meanwhile, Jaaws and Whist have hypnotized Aya, Leptomoris, Grondor, and Ayearth's SAP, and have discovered a new type of Brazen Goo that allows evil influences to overtake Powers. Jaaws has Ayearth and now Cealani under her control. She and Whist took what they thought was Sylvia's drum, but when they tried to summon Sylvia in order to control her, they discovered the drum was fake. The SAPs have a base in the Labryinth Lands, and they have drained all the flooding out of it.
Meanwhile, Sylvia is in the process of having a foal. Blazing Star's instrument was stolen (by Cealani and then Jaaws/Whist) and is now being hunted down by the SAPs.
Kimiko (a traveler), Moonlight (a black panther who gets energy from the moon), Aliaza Shadowstalker (a shapeshifter), and a ghost who haunts a sword (named Malachi?) are traveling to Mer together. Kimiko wants to join the Resistance so they're all looking for a Resistance base.
The Elites have discovered where Jaaws may have recently originated, after unhypnotizing Hazel and learning that elf magic has an effect on Jaaws's powers. (Claaws has suggested that elves got their powers from Sylvia, who gave them to Celesti's third child)
The Sages/Blessed Ones are meeting each other in a network of caves. The Sages are named Piiri, Abrany, Albero, Hindar, Fyor and maybe another one whom I forgot. The Sages were recently blessed by the Flower Carrier so they can defeat their Cursed Counterparts.
Thimble and Scarlet reunited at the Bog & Burrow Inn (on the B&B thread on Kyngdom's homepage).
And I guess that's it. I'm not really sure what the Resistance is doing right now. Or Catastrophe, for that matter. Also, there's the Normality thread, but I haven't been keeping up with that one.
---
So, about the Sages. Yeah, I had the idea that maybe the Curesd Ones were linked to the Artifacts. Any thoughts about that? @Piiri? @Everyone else?
As for the Elites, well, Hazel will ask Norah and Ben to join (@Norah, you still around?). After that, maybe they can begin heading to the labryinth lands with their new lead, but run into the Resistance on the way. Either that or they can make a detour if they get close to a place where they know lots of Resistance agents are.
On the subject of the Powers, I think the evilized ones should get cured by Sylvia at some point in the future. I also think there should be some more Power of Hoof action! After all, this is the Power of Hoof segment! Claaws had the idea that Icy could run into Sylvia, and then the two could look for Lunee--or maybe, they could search for Powers that have been turned evil. (@Icy, what are your thoughts on this?)
Claaws and I were also brainstorming some ways to bring 'formerly known as BIG' and FaFA back into the picture! We were thinking maybe FaFA could be involved with the labyrinth tunnel plotline. Or something like that. I'm trying to tie Thimble into that plot.
So I heard that Mina doesn't really believe in the Powers. Does she believe in the Sideaffected Powers? Or none of the above? The Elites are allied with the Resistance thanks to Shadow, so they send info over sometimes. Will Mina disregard the Elites' information on Jaaws? If the Elites do end up going on a mission to the Labyrinth Lands, will the Resistance support that in any way?
Where could we take the Resistance plot next? Claaws suggested that they get involved with the Powers, trying to find them, at some point in the future.
Okay, people we absolutely need to continue with the Powers/SAPs plotline: @RONAN and @SCYLLA. I just attempted contacting Ronan via the Kyngdom Wiki, so we will see how that goes. As for Scylla, I've contacted her over Animal Jam.
People that it would be awesome to have back on the Power RP Team: @Mina, you play Aya, right? Also, @ARRA WINDFLIGHT, but I don't think Arra is coming back. Lastly...@UNSUSPECTINGSTRYTLLR.
By the way, where in the world did Alex R go??? @ALEX R!!!
Anything specific to do with the Powers/SAPs, you say? Hm...well, I'd definitely like them to start making a comeback plot-wise. As for specifics, well, most of my thoughts are on this thread: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/kyngdom-rp/node/363093
I might like Jaaws to get into some stuff involving the Artifacts. And/or maybe she does some stuff to the Resistance?
What happens if Catastrophe steals all the people who have the Artifacts' power inside of them? Does he still get the benefit of having all that magic together? And is there a way to get the magic out of them?
And does anyone know exactly how the Artifacts were created?
Well, you know I'm always up for more labryinth drama. XD (The Power of Claw phase was a really fun one for me and I love the labryinth lands.)
As for additional thoughts...We really need to get Catastrophe back in the game! Like I said before, I just tried to contact Ronan, but there's a chance he might not see my message. Also, I'd like to bring 'formerly BIG' and FaFA and all the other groups that are allied together back! Do you think they'd have a base somewhere? If so, where? What do you think they're doing right now? Maybe they're continuing with their spy work, gathering information from all around Kyngdom. Maybe they know there's something up inside the labryinth, and that's how we can initiate the whole Labyrinth Lands drama.
Speaking of which, I think that if we go with the labryinth land drama, then first, the SAPs should finish what they're doing up there in the snowy lands, then start a new mission. Sylvia's plotline should continue (the one with the foal), and then the stuff with the Elites/FaFA & BIG/The Resistance/whoever should happen. And maybe the Resistance rejects their idea to go after Jaaws, so maybe the Elites, and Icy, and FaFA/BIG/some others head to the Labryinth Lands alone.
Either way, at that point, all the little 'side' plots could converge for a little while into one big main plot.
Maybe we could use this all as a buildup to the Power of Hoof, (well, I don't want to say 'finale', but...spotlight!) Yeah, that's it. A buildup to the spotlight on Sylvia--us going through several different stages that end up as one big main plot where we're all doing something that revolves around Sylvia, or is somehow related to Sylvia, since this is, after all, the Power of Hoof segment.
Basically what I'm suggesting is that we could use all this as a prelude to Sylvia's feature in the plot, since I definitely think we need one of those. So either it could buildup to her, or we could directly incorporate Sylvia in the next events.
Do you guys want to do that? And if so, any thoughts on how we could do that?
Well, that's it for me for now! My mind is empty after all that. xD
(May 6, 2018 - 2:29 pm)
The spirit in the sword from the I was going... Thread is Pani, and Machali is Kimiko's friend who she met when imprisoned in Jökull. (Oh yeah, and there's a ship, too--Machamiko!)
(May 6, 2018 - 5:49 pm)
Ohhh, okay. Thanks, Sybill!
(May 6, 2018 - 6:31 pm)
That all sounds fabulous to me! I don't have any thoughts on how to converge the plots right now, but when I'm less brain dead I'll give it another thought.
(May 7, 2018 - 11:35 am)
Well I'm back again with more stuff, heh heh.
I read through the discussions concerning the Artifacts and there was never truly a *solid* conclusion on how they came to be. But it sort of went like this...(And if you want to read through the discussion it's on pages 1-4 of this thread.)
Sylvia and Celesti made the Artifacts after they realized how evil King Catastrophe was. They were meant to perceive and purify/kill any evil that touched them.
But the Artifacts were never able to be used on Catastrophe because either he found out, or the chance was lost because all the Powers were getting killed off. Or Jaaws found the Artifacts. Whatever the case, they were ultimately left unused.
But the Artifacts were found by Jaaws and she infused them with evil/greed/darkness so that anyone--not just good people--could use them.
And then, Icy's ancestor (Celesti's third daughter) found out about the newly evilized artifacts and appointed guardians to guard them so no one could find/use them.
This means that there is both light and darkness inside the Artifacts, which explains how Ocean is not being affected in a negative way by the magic of the Crown. It also explains why the magic had a negative effect on Mina--and maybe even Master Nova, its guardian!
But there's just one thing...Sylvia's magic is strong enough to combat Jaaws's; we know that because elves (which are descended from her) can cure people from Jaaws. So 1: Why didn't Jaaws die/get weakened when she handled the Artifacts to evil-ize them? Perhaps she didn't actually touch them, or she put them through a special process safe for her to infuse them with dark magic. And 2: How could Jaaws's magic overcome or coexist with Sylvia and Celesti's magic inside the Artifacts?
I think it's cool that there's both good and evil inside the Artifacts. That gives them a lot of potential for the story.
(May 7, 2018 - 2:04 pm)
In response to 2: Maybe Sylvia and Celesti can't completely overpower or destroy Jaaws because she's Claaws' Sideaffected Power and therefore only Claaws can permanently take her down?
