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.

Thanks, Hazel! I like your idea about the Elites. Trixie, are you on board?
About the BIG: I think that some of the scientists aren't okay with being allied to the Resistance, and in Cornelia Hornshaw's absence, my charrie Lycaella's father will step up to lead them. They'll be splitting off from the rest of the BIG, reclaiming old labs, recapturing old tests subjects and gathering new ones, and basically trying to continue as they used to. Lycaella's mom will also be a member. She does a lot of the actual experimenting, while Lycaella's dad was previously some sort of lower manager, maybe of staff? He had ideas about where the organization could go, which was why he was looking into the SOCS and the Powers. And now he's taking it into his own hands. Thoughts?
You reached Scylla? I've sworn to hold her to her promise, but I can't do that if I can't contact her. It makes me feel like a paladin in an ethical dilemma. Can you ask her to come back or talk to me or something?
We need Claaws too, right? She's a good writer, and has always been involved in the Powers plot. I think she's still here. @Claaws, are you here?
I have no idea where Alex R. went, but I was just wondering the same thing! I think the last time I heard from him was when he asked me for some bases.
Kidnapping the Artifacts' vessels? Interesting. I like it! He'll probably figure it's worth a shot, although he doesn't know that's what has been done last I checked. He has spies, though, so he might.
Ronan introduced the Artifacts the last time he was gone. Said they were ancient and powerful and Catastrophe would have the power to rule Kyngdom if he got all three. He gets the Sword on the Tale: Two Kyngdoms thread, but I'm not sure where he originally posted.
I love the idea of building up to Sylvia, but I'm not sure how it would work... Maybe some people see her as being able to combat Jaaws and want her to try?
(May 11, 2018 - 2:39 pm)
Ooh, yes, I love that idea about Lycaella's dad bringing BIG back!! Hey, Thimble was once a lab mouse at BIG. But I doubt they'd go looking for her. xD
Yeah, I can ask Scylla to do that.
Oh, of course we need Claaws! I think she's still here, though, right, @Claaws? I just listed the people that have stopped posting. Which reminds me--
@ICY! I know you're here! Please post; we love you and miss you and desperately want you to come back!!
(@Alex R, if you're reading this, also come back! We missssss youuuuuu!!!)
Connie hasn't been on for a while, either. Neither have Microchip, Anwen, KG, Akrra, shadow (but didn't shadow officially leave?)...hm, lots of people have faded away, now that I think about it.
As for building up to Sylvia...hm...
Perhaps after the SAPs find Blazing Star, Blazing Star seeks out Sylvia and tells her what's happened. Either that, or some other charrie(s) figures out what's going on with the SAPs and the Powers, maybe interact with Blazing Star, and ultimately find Sylvia and inform her of the situation.
Either way, maybe Sylvia learns about what's happened to her siblings, and during/after/in the vicinity of the labyrinth drama, she appears to help?
Here's a list of events we can host to get charries together:
-Another ball (heh, well, I couldn't leave this out! Kyngdomers love to dance!)
-An auction
-An important council (Claaws suggested that Catastrophe take over the council of Kyngdom around the Power of Howl time. This event could happen around then!)
-A really large festival
I don't know, maybe the Resistance hosts an event, or Catastrophe does, or the Resistance goes to one of these. And the Elites could run into the Resistance there! Ooh, and maybe some FaFA & co. spies will attend! Maybe? What do you think?
@Moonshadow - Do you want to continue the Thimble/Scarlet RP? (If not I understand) But if you do, where do you want to take it?
Also, I think we should try to revamp the Groups section, as well as threads on the homepage, just to reduce crowding on the RP board. (Bog & Burrow, Mission at BIG, the Resistance Group thread, etc.)
(May 12, 2018 - 9:32 am)
Yes, a ball or something would be great! Oh, maybe Rose and Sybill could somehow attend. Maybe they hear of a healer going there, or maybe Lilly will convince Rose to go... Viola?, do you think that would be a good idea? I'd like it if Kimiko and Machali could attend, but they're pretty busy at the moment. Maybe the Sages could make an appearance or something? If Majnun learns about it, he'll likely go whether anybody likes or not!
(May 12, 2018 - 10:59 am)
Can we do that after I come back from Suspension? I want to attend! :) Or maybe I'll have Ath meet her crush at the ball. She still doesn't have one. Sybill? Do you think you can manage her future crush? Ath is on the Normality (though not... Thread. If you can't could someone else please handle him? I don't care what he looks like as long as he's at least relatively good looking. Thanks.
(May 12, 2018 - 2:22 pm)
Id love too! Actually, I was planning on making a new charrie to replace Yin. Does it have to be a Gemstone Warrior though? Like, is it possible for Ath to marry a human or no? Just wondering.
(May 12, 2018 - 5:49 pm)
Yeah it's fine if he's human, he just can't hate shapeshifters. Ooh! What if he's obsessed with magical objects and carries a couple around with him for protection? @Mina, can Ath (and eventually her crush) be friends with Serafinne and her friends on the Normality (though not... thread?
(May 12, 2018 - 10:13 pm)
Great! Also, that depends, what did they do with her?
Anwen is the same writer as Moonshadow last I checked, although I could be wrong. Dunno if that changes anything. I was hoping to plan out a bit of an ending so that people can leave in good conscience, wrap up their charrie arcs and be free. Not a full ending, of course; I'm sure there'll be others who have the energy to go on. Just enough of one that people like Scylla and Ronan and Icy and me don't have to leave our parts of the story on a permanent cliffhanger. So that we can go out with a bang.
That sounds great! We just need to get Scylla in on it.
The Pur Lamours could host a ball, perhaps, either a kind of memorial to their daughters or just as a random 'volunteer' family chosen by Catastrophe. A council sounds good--maybe we should live chat that? Come as your charrie and just imagine we're all in a room together, talking as they would, doing the actual boring work of running a revolution/government. I think Discord would work for that. A festival is also interesting, providing different sections of one locale for people to fight and dramatize in. An auction is puzzling; it's a very structured event. What would that be like?
I'd love to have the Elites and the Resistance meet at an event, and you know not a single one will go by without something exciting happening. The Ball of Stars is probably the only party that wasn't crashed, but that still had a death and at least one major plot development. So yeah, anything could happen.
Activity in other sections... It would probably give us a boost. It would drain me a bit, but I have to deal with that anyway. Sounds good.

A quick note on Discord: You don't actually need an account. You can create a username and just use that. As long as you don't sign out you'll be good. I don't know much about Discord though, is it possible to join a server without a link?
(May 14, 2018 - 12:01 pm)
Ooh, cool! I'm not sure... I know there's a search bar at the top of your direct messages to find a user, but not a server.
Mexi says xpew!
(May 14, 2018 - 6:26 pm)
I thought of a way we could do Discord invites, but I think it everyone would need an account.
I'm sorry, but Chatterbox rules do not allow us to enable users to meet elsewhere than Nano.

We also have to figure out what or which ball it is going to be, like is it an Alighning of the Stars ball or...?
(May 12, 2018 - 10:15 pm)
Thimble was a test mouse for a genetic modifier that increased strength, life span, and overall hardiness. BIG was, um, using it on this giant snake or something. I have no idea what the snake was for though; I was kind of...all over the place back in the day, and I never really finished anything I started.
Yes, good plan! I'd really love to finish on a solid note! When you say ending, I'm assuming you mean finish what's going on now--the Power & Catastrophe arcs, etc etc?
YES I love that idea for the council! We can live chat it, and once it's over, I'd be happy to copy/paste the events onto a new thread here, just to have it all in one place. Discord would work best, and Trixie's right, you don't have to create an account to use it. If Discord for some reason doesn't work, then we can always make a Kyngdom YWP classroom. (We might actually have to do both, but more on that down below.)
So, as for the auction, it could either be a fancy event full of rich Kyngdom folk, (this would be hard to include many characters in), or it could be something more along the lines of...a giant outdoor market, like a flea market where there's hundreds of different people selling lots of different things. And at the market, there could be auctions for livestock (horses, cows, etc) and other items. In my mind this would take place in southwest Kyngdom, or wherever the ocean is, but really, it could take place anywhere! I also think it would be really interesting if Catastrophe hosted an event!
So! About other websites!
The only websites we're really allowed to talk about a lot on Cricket are Nano-related sites, meaning we can't put a Discord invite here. But we could make a Kyngdom classroom on Nanowrimo's Young Writers Program, and from there, post a Discord invite.
And we could also stay in touch via these sites as well!!! It makes me sad to think that I'll have to say goodbye to all you wonderful people after Kyngdom is over. I'd love to be able to keep in touch with you all even after the story has ended!
Oh, and before I forget, maybe once we start RPing again we can post plot updates here? Kinda like the news or something--just quick briefings on what's been happening on various threads.
Annnnd now I'm out of time! I'm working on writing out some plans for my characters, but I'll have to finish that later.
(May 14, 2018 - 4:49 pm)
How does the YWP work? Would it be easier to just RP there?
(May 16, 2018 - 10:52 am)
WhAt NO!!! Kyngdom is not ending! A singular plot line IN Kyngdom is ending. There are more things to do! Conflicts to be solved! There is Dari and SMA(LL) to take care of! Just like the actual continents on Earth, Kyngdom can't just fade!!
