Greetings.
Unknown and Muse have met up and the following has been determined:
The Mistwood Plot will have a culminating event on
Now to answer a few questions that I anticipate:
1. Why is it so far out?
Because Unknown has finals for school coming up in April, and I have a few work related projects due in mid-april, which makes planning it any sooner than that a detriment to the story. May 12th was the earliest reasonable weekend that gives us enough time to plan the event, attend to RL needs, continue to DM other events, or enjoy our time also playing on the server.
2. I can't make May 12th! Will you please move the event?
No. I know that in the past we've done our best to poll players and try to optimize plans, but this time around this event is so far back that it was more important to set an end date and be able to work on a rubric / outline leading up to that day. I am very sorry that you won't be able to make the ending event, but perhaps there are other things we can do over the next several weeks to still help you feel like you were apart of it. (That is still an option.) But this is the day and time range. We're not really open to moving it. And we're hopeful that by giving you 6 weeks of notice, that you'll be able to join us.
3. Is this event specific to people or guilds?
No. The Mistwood is a place in FRC. If your character's body resides in FRC, then you can just as feasibly be involved in this event. This isn't to say that guilds may have taken an interest in the Mistwood plot as groups or entities, but this plot resides in the house of FRC. It's resolution will greatly depend on the players of the server as a whole, and how they choose to play within' their groups... or outside of their groups... or independently. <3
4. Will I have had to of participated in this plot previously to be apart of this event?
Maybe. We are pretty flexible. Here's the compromise and ground rules:
Only one character of yours may be involved in this event. No switching back and forth.
We need you to sign up that character and inform us of some basic information so that we can put together an approximate game plan for the day. (and try... an attempt... to balance encounters or come up with a game plan for non-epic vs epic encounters)
This event is closed to characters nuzzling too close to the level 30 mark. It's nearly impossible to balance encounters with characters that push past the level 25 mark. So if you find yourself nestling too close to the 30 mark, I may ask you to not battle, and rp only.
And finally, Unknown and I may ask you to sit this plot out. We reserve that right.
5. How do I sign up?

6. What happens if I just show up on May 12th and don't sign up?
I donno. It's possible it won't matter. It's much more likely, the event will suffer. So please sign up. Thanks.
7. I can't stay for the whole day! I'm going to be late! I'm going to leave Early! Something something time!
Stay for the whole thing. Come late. Leave early. Just don't swap characters. <3 You might miss out, but you might not. Who knows.
If I missed something question wise, just post it below, and Unknown and I will chime in as we can. Looking forward to it.
