• INTENSE EVENT PLOTTING MEME •

Welcome to our April Intense Event Plotting meme! This post is our monthly CR meme for everyone, and serves as a place to make some plans for our next event which will go live on April 12th. Below you will see the Event planning form as well as an Event Outline for our upcoming event.

Reflecting Back
Peering into reflective surfaces (mirrors, windows, water, etc.) causes Dreamers to see a past version of themselves.
They are unable to resist in engaging in conversation with their reflections.
Engaging with a reflection for too long will cause the Dreamer to begin to embody that version of themselves, eventually forgetting who they are and losing touch with reality.
This trance can only be broken by shattering the reflective surface which caused it.
Dreamers are hesitant to destroy reflective surfaces, and doing so will cause them to temporarily lose memories about the time in their life that was being reflected.
Doppelgangers
Doppelgangers are appearing in Visium and Lumindeas, impersonating anyone who is significant to the Dreamer they're following.
They obsessively follow Dreamers and insist on being close with them at all times.
They are extremely temperamental, prone to aggression or despair.
If accused of being a doppelganger, attacked, or otherwise confronted or displeased, they will viciously attack the Dreamer. They can use any ability that the person they are copying can use (please use your best judgment and nerf appropriately).
The only way to rid oneself of a doppelganger is to kill them, or viciously rebuke them, insulting them and demanding they leave, no matter how much they cry and protest.
Changelings
Creatures called changelings are replacing all living things in Lumindeas and Visium - locals, animals, plants. The originals are incapacitated and hidden, replaced by the changelings.
They are extremely violent, and will only tolerate Dreamers for a few minutes before attacking with the intent to kill.
They can only be gotten rid of by being killed.
Even plants may come to life and attack (use your imagination!)
The Locals' Response
Dreamers may be detained for long periods of time at the Light & Whole clinic if they are suspected of being doppelgangers, though conditions are very good, and they are allowed to use their devices.
At one point, doppelgangers and changelings make their way into the clinic, threatening the genuine Dreamers and locals being detained or seeking refuge there.
Meanwhile, locals are encouraging Dreamers to come up with plans for how to differentiate each other from doppelgangers.
Dreamers are also offered golden bracelets to wear, which will allow them to identify any doppelganger, and will prevent themselves from being copied.
Wearing the bracelet will lead to temporary memory loss, confusion, etc., which locals are aware of.
Wearing the bracelet will also cause each Dreamer who does so to lose one significant memory until it is returned during a future event.

Welcome to our Intense event plotting! This is the first month that we are focusing on an Intense event that is not taking into account new players due to our new app cycle schedule. We will have a feedback comment for the plotting form, in case you think I should add or remove different elements from the form that may work better for these months.

Also regarding the event: Please use your best judgment when writing your doppelganger-related threads. Remember that threads should primarily be between characters that are actually in-game; playing the doppelgang version of your character for certain threads is also an option.
