Intro/CR Meme - Small Town Setting

[uploadedmods]

Intro/CR Meme

Welcome to Uploaded 2.0! Our first setting will take place in the small town of Corwin, Indiana. This secluded town boasts beautiful scenery and a simple way of life. Yet, intertwined in the roots of the small community, there is an ominous presence unbeknownst to most. A fanatical cult dwells at the core of this borough. They possess the belief that ritual human sacrifices will appease the Devil and carry-on a longstanding “truce”, preserving Corwin’s way of life.


Our first event will take place at the Church. Every year, the congregation throws a holiday bash. Blessed with good weather, the events are able to span both the churchyard and the sanctuary itself. With attractions like a Christmas lights display, a hot chocolate stand, and booths peddling handmade wares, this convocation attracts every local. Those visiting the town will be encouraged to attend as well, tempted with a free glass of wine or the delicious home cooked finger foods on offer.



Cult members, your objective during this event is simple. Touch base with one another, and insure that everything at the party goes smoothly. While some curious guests may try to wander the church, you’d prefer for them to stay in the main areas. The basement is strictly off limits.

Tourists, you are fascinated by this small town celebration, and look forward to enjoying everything the party has to offer. Be sure to check every activity, even if only briefly, to get the full experience.

Locals, this party is your pride and joy! Help set up, encourage everyone else who is working hard on this lovely December night, and relax with a cup of hot chocolate. Maybe you’ve set up a table or activity of your own, or maybe you’re really proud of the dish you brought - in some way, you’ve contributed.

Since our check-in counts for December activity, please remember the opportunity to post your threads to the bonus activity (link coming soon!) page. Corwin will be our setting from December through January, encompassing four events. Our next event will be in about two weeks - please keep an eye on the calendar for the specific date. You may use the form below for the CR meme, or you may use your own format! Tag around, and have fun!

OOC:
Name: Morgan
Contact: PM
Interests: Music, some nerdy shit, fitness, books, coffee
Tagging Habits: I have no set schedule or specific times I tag back, but it will be within 24hrs most of the time, usually sooner. I'll boomerang if I'm around.

IC:
Character: Nakajima Atsushi
Role: Gossip/Cult
Housing: A small house in major disrepair on the side streets. The roof's been leaking so long only the basement is safe from water damage at this point.
Personality: Atsushi's a hot mess of self-loathing and panic, and he'll be initially focused on obeying the rules out of fear until something else sounds like a better idea. Before he gets used to the setting and people he meets, he's going to be jumpy and freaking out a bit. He's naive, easily manipulated, has no self-esteem, and doesn't think things through = he'll be making a lot of bad decisions. Personality tweaks would have definitely been needed to even think about participating in the sacrifice of innocents, or to not automatically volunteer himself for said sacrifice. That said, he'll still feel like he should sabotage it somehow.
Plans: He's going to try and abide by the rules, so plan #1 is figuring out how to avoid broadcasting his involvement in the cult to the tourists without consequences/death. Sort of a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario going on by way of role assignments. He's not very smart and he'll go for 'terribly obvious lie' as the easiest option, which may invite more suspicion from savvy tourists who just know something's not right with Corwin. Until he figures out role loopholes, he's a liability to the cult's objective. Plan #2, if it comes down to it, he'll consequence out to try and stop the sacrifice if possible.
Desired CR: Everyone. I'm indiscriminate on tagging.
Anything else:
a terribly obvious lie.

plan #2 or die trying

[naraku]

hey!! since these two have the same role as the TDM, would you like to keep our thread going/ keep it canon?

also, Oboro's very loyal to the cult's plan, so I'm sure these two will clash at some point - but he won't be inherently suspicious of atsushi !

[thetyger]

I'm okay with that. It would have been a similar first introduction in any new thread anyway.

[mightyboy]

Midoriya is so game to try to help you with plan #2! He doesn't want someone to get murdered, but he also doesn't want people to suffer trying not to murder someone...

[thetyger]

Because they'll totally succeed on enthusiasm alone!
