Important Story Poll

I'm trying to figure out exactly the reason for the time travel and so far all I got is that something's messing with the melodies of Arda.

But what is?

I like the first two! The Melkor one could be the reason that Melkor is a little girl now - he screwed something up badly.

But I like the cosmic horror one too. HOW TO CHOOSE.

[crantz]

Melkor'd be an easy choice, but I'm thinking pinning essential plot details on a pc is asking for trouble, especially if my cat finally succeeds in killing me in my sleep. ON THE OTHER HAND THAT IS JUST THE SHIT he'd pull.

Cosmic horror, as you know, is my favouritest thing ever because I love cosmic horrors. And it could start bleeding into other plots, as cosmic horrors do. And there's the potential of keeping the game in the works once it's destroyed, just no new arrivals, all new characters will be already arrived ones or citizens.

[snacky]

I don't want the whole game to be horror, though.

[crantz]

I think it'd be pretty to avoid straight out constant horror, but I think like the sometimes murder mystery, we could probably fit it in fairly easily without it dominating everything.

Especially given our tendency to get distracted and do entire chats about baking pie.

[snacky]

Well, it could work. Let's see what others vote for.

Pie. Yum.

[crantz]

YES THEY HAD BETTER VOTE SOON >:O

I tried to get Jess to weigh in since she was considering but she isn't replying to me

Cosmic horror. Or ancient evil. Or both.

Actually, I'm leaning toward ancient evil, because nearly all evil is ancient, right? That's what the man on the TV keeps telling me.

[crantz]

Ancient cosmic horror, slipped in during the original song?

[jaiden_s]

Exactly. One slip of the tongue and everything went sideways. Horribly sideways.

[balrog_bait]

More seriously, I like this one too!

[balrog_bait]

Dagnir did it. Somehow.
