Character Shenanigans!

[voidtreckermods]

Sometimes things happen that may have consequences further down the line. Sometimes characters decide to do things that might have immidiate reprecussion. As mods we want to have our fingers on the pulse of the game as it were, but we are also aware that we won't be able to read every single thing!

So that's where this post comes in. If your character has done something 'noticable' that you think we might need to know about, throw us a link here. Some might require a response, some will just be noted.

Example: "Over *here* my character is trying to smash the windows of the engine!"

Sometimes you might have an idea in mind that you believe will have consequences and be in the midst of writing the thread, however you want to know what those consequences will be for threads going forward. Or you might still be in the planning stages and would like to know how things might pan out. That's also what this post is for!

Example: "At the end of this event my character is planning to not rejoin the train and instead ride off into the sunset! What happens?"

Ask away!

Sorry about the delay here.

So on the train she won't be in danger of possession (unless any characters try and possess her). She will absorb any negative emotions of those on the train. It will work very much the same it does in her canon- as to limits and side effects etc - what usually happens if Nike (or someone like her) absorbs too many negative emotion?

The walls of the train itself will protect her from the worst of the void but without her SCA she will feel more uneasy, sense the chaos a bit more.

For the most part, if she is overwhelmed by too many negative emotions she'll fall unconscious. Depending on the amount, she'll sleep for a few days or may get up feeling sick and exhausted.

Now if she encounters a character with a grudge that lasted a very long time (say over a thousand years), then she may begin to get darker skin tone and become possessed by the emotion, changing her alignment from a guardian spirit to a demon until she is purified.

I doubt we have any characters with a grudge so fierce, so I don't mind having her getting sick/passing out and feeling more vulnerable to the effects of the void even with the SCA (but let's be honest, she isn't wearing the SCA in the train rn).

I don't think we have anyone like that either, luckily!

So yes she will have less protection without her SCA from the void and also be vulnerable to the emotions of her fellow passengers.
