Scatterhome wants YOU!

Soren

A Haiku* in Five Parts

My Salutations
to all my Scatterhomies
(...and the rest of you)

Something's going down
in Micro right after sync
Be there or don't be

It is up to you
I won't sensationalize
or oversell it

I could tell you more
but I've decided not to
cause that's how I roll

Scatterhome's the place
Haven, specifically
See you flakkers there!

---
*or something like that

Sup, Scatters. This Thursday, sometime after sync. Things will happen, as things often do.

Sincerely,
Your friendly neighborhood Storyteller

IC: Over the past few months, the hostilities in Oldtown have begun to escalate between the Dikamazi Ventrats and the Chrome Skull interlopers. The leader of the Ventrats, Recoil Akura, has posted a bounty of five marks on Kuda Shayato, a move clearly intended to insult and enrage him.

Kuda, for his part, seems determined to get his hands on a mysterious flower he insists the Ventrats have in their possession.

Things are coming to a head, and the Ventrats and Chrome Skulls are sure to come to blows that will end this thing, one way or the other.

OOC: Players in Scatterhome (and everyone else who's curious) are encouraged to log in tomorrow, 5/25, at the Sync (8pm EST) to participate in the next phase of this event!

Thanks to everyone who logged in tonight! We all had a blast, and hope you did too.

And big thanks to Storyteller Soren for his hard work over the past couple of weeks! The concept, characters, and plotline were all masterminded by him, and would not have been possible without his dedication. Thank you also to Storyteller Tallulah for pitching in and being our eyes and ears as the madness went down! See our Events post in game for the fine details.

Soren

AHHH! Thank you to Slander, Vaxis, Morgan, Keinna, Naldan, Juno, Ilyavhen, Marcus, Poet, Zarrach, Orrin, Albion, Vianou and everyone else who participated in any way during this thing, however big or small... good or villainous. Sorry if I forgot anyone, I know there were more of you, but those are just the names I can recall offhand. You have all been beyond fantastic.

Also, big props to Keinna for the clever idea of how to trick Kuda, and to Ilyavhen just for being a wonderful, decent person. Why are you in Scatterhome again? Kidding. Well, sorta. 

And of course, thank you to Eukelade and Tallulah for making this whole thing 1000% more awesome than it would have been if I were trying to do it alone! You're both brilliant.

Recoil had a literal plot armor.

Poet

I missed a lot of this, and then an inadvertent programming error led Poet to acting crazier than normal. (for her, invisible Chrome Skulls were everywhere).

After everything was over, and as many of you might expect, Scatterhome drank Gravity dry.  Poet offered Genny cash for a custom cocktail out of whatever she had behind the bar. Her only requests were that it "not be too froofy" and that it should "fuck shit up".  For a limited time, you can get these at Gravity

Description: This blue-ish purple bluepricot cocktail is made of a slush of strong tasting vodka and fresh bluepricots and hinkafruit liqueur, topped with a mint leaf and a trio of fresh bluepricots on top for decoration.

 

Contents: 10 draughts of chilly blue slush slosh about inside.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

You take a drink from a fancy cocktail glass filled with chilly blue slush.

Chunky and cold, the blue slush glides down your throat, tasting of chemicals and marshmallows.

The strong taste of alcohol permeates through the drink's flavor!

Slander

Even though I couldn't be around for the big battle Thursday (stupid job) I gotta say that this whole thing was absolutely amazing. Thank you so much everyone who was involved, storytellers and players. It forced Slander to make difficult decisions, question herself quite a bit, strained (and in one case, destroyed) relationships and even caused me stress at times but it was totally worth it. By far the most fun I've had with an event in all my years of MUDs.

Orrin

I agree, it was awesome! Well done and thanks to Soren for the amazing storytelling, and creating an immersive and compelling event. I'm not strong enough to take part in the battles really but it was really exciting to be a part of, despite getting killed 3 times on Saturday 😂 
Brilliant stuff!
