Plot Reports


PLOT REPORTS

If you run a player plot, participate in a war table mission, or do something unplanned/unofficial that you feel may have wider implications for the game world, please use this page to submit an OOC report! Your report doesn't need to be lengthy or overly detailed but should include the basic premise ("A and B hunt down C"), state the outcome ("C is caught and placed in Inquisition custody"), and explain anything significant that is handwaved rather than played out if, for example, the log in question ended prematurely.

The purpose of these reports is twofold: first, to provide an easy reference for players to keep up with what's going on (or to get caught up if they're new); second, to allow the mod team to monitor the results of player plots and show the impact of those plots on the game world moving forward.

To submit a report, please use the form below and respond to the appropriate comment. In the subject line please put the date (or date range) of the plot as well as some sort of informative title ("Catching C").

Harvestmere 20-ish / Samson fight and capture

[personal profile] redinside 2017-01-12 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
PLOT: Operation: Sweetest Downfall
PARTICIPANTS: Bruce, Christine Delacroix, Ciri, Inessa Serra, The Iron Bull, Issaquntaar, James Norrington, Kain Ventfort, Raleigh Samson
LOG: Link
PREMISE: Inquisition forces ambush a red templar caravan headed south. Samson is with them. Surprise!
OUTCOME:
  • Christine, Inessa, Issaquntaar and Kain participated in the neutralization of the red templar forces, particularly by taking down a behemoth. Nice. One assumes they did not die nor lose any vital pieces during this event.
  • Bruce, Ciri, Iron Bull, and Norrington dispatched four red templars before facing Samson himself, probably also without dying. The general resisted their attacks at first, but over the course of an exhaustingly long battle they wore him down until finally, in anger and desperation, he took one too many doses of red lyrium and collapsed on the field.
  • He was then dragged back to Skyhold like heavy, stinky luggage.
  • Overall it was an extraordinarily violent battle with significant NPC casualties on both sides.
  • All participants experienced temporary discomfort due to the proximity of red lyrium, with no permanent negative effects (luckily).
  • Norrington got a cool scar. Other people got scars too but his is the coolest.
  • The wagon ultimately forded the river along with with five red templars protecting its heavily hooded passenger, whose identity was not revealed. A group of inquisition agents pursued the wagon several miles south of the river before successfully disabling it. Three of the five red templars escaped into the Wilds with their passenger, while two were slain.
  • The red templars set fire to the wagon upon abandoning it, but a small quantity of red lyrium research records and equipment were salvaged.
  • Samson's custom-forged red lyrium armour and greatsword were also retrieved from the battlefield. Both are presumably kept somewhere dark under lock and key (and lock and key and lock) until someone can figure out how to deal with them without going crazy.
  • Samson's last words before losing consciousness were, "You mustn't hurt him... he's just a boy. Don't..."
