[QUOTE="Angelsboi, post: 118707, member: 1219"] Ok my PCs have discovered an ongoing Chess game. They are nearing the completion of it. The only problem i have ... is the deputy mayor and the mortician (the ones playing the game) are going to try to pit the PCs against the other with their lies. I mean this is what i have right now: [b]“Title Goes Here”[/b] [b]Plot:[/b] The PCs having discovered an ongoing human chess game, now have to try to stop it. [b]Focus:[/b] Ensemble [b]Opening[/b] The show starts in the middle of the battle with Ted. After the weaponsmith is dead, they will no doubt try to flee from the scene b/c this takes place in broad daylight. A mysterious robed figure (unseen servant) will approach the PC Kiril and hand him a gift from ‘The White King.” ((Lance +1 Anything else it does?)). He will also receive directions that read: [i]Black takes White, you’ll now be hunted, like the sapplings, blighted and stunted. Now my Knight, White takes Black, you’ll play this game, you have the knack .[/i] [b]Segment 1[/b] The mayor announces that in the sake of his deputy mayor, he too will adopt a child from the local orphanage. The childs name will be announced. The Mayor is going to adopt Genny. [b]Segment 1 Cliffhanger[/b] ? [b]Segment 2[/b] ? [b]Segment 2 Cliffhanger[/b] ? [b]Segment 3[/b] ? [b]Segment 3 Cliffhanger[/b] ? [b]Game Info[/b] Black Pieces - Dead - 7 (including the weaponsmith Ted) White Pieces - Dead - 6 PCs have a clue about the White Queen/King/Black King/Queen I need to introduce a letter to the PC Monk about a book her order wants on the Shadow Planes. The mayor and deputy mayor (Mayor is the black king but all the pieces dont remember getting the tattoo and the mayor is charmed by the deputy mayor) will leave the scene when Ted dies and soon there will be 3 black pawns, a bishop, a knight, the king and queen left. The rooks are sanctuaries where no fighting can go on. I want this plotline to end this wednesday so i can start a new plotline b/c the one PC who this is supposed to be centering on is just not caring. Can i have some help? [/QUOTE]
