jigokuooc | August 2022 Event Plotting

Here's a centralized post for plotting out for the event!

Here's a breakdown summary of every prompt on the event;
Gambling Problem - The Shuten Clan is running an old-style den casino in Sai no Kawara with all kinds of games of chance to try your hand at. Shuten dealers have been trained to cheat on behalf of the house, of course.
Pleasure Palace - Tamamo has created a palace-like house of pleasure. It's essentially an extremely high end cabaret club and brothel, with both an indoor and outdoor stage for performances.
Gossip - With so many high profile clients in town for Tanabata, it's Sutoku's jobs to keep their ears open for all the hot goss they can. One thing in particular most characters will hear about is trouble in one of family of a particular finance wolf. His daughter wants to be a musician. He's trying to get her to come home. Drama ensues.
Tanabata - The usual Tanabata fun, though the Stardust-fueled magic creating the star show might make everyone feel more inclined to get in on the peace and love. What's more, the magic may impact the wishmaking itself! Take a chance, right?
"We Know Who You Are" - The infamous Iron Bear has made their presence felt. An attempted assassination is thwarted, but the finance wolf's daughter is kidnapped, and the Enma is here to make sure everyone starts talking about what they know. A tense ending to a party, but at least no one's in immediate danger. Right? Right?

Player Name: Fey
Contact: Discord available upon request, chat with me here, friend away on plurk @ wisdombitch!

Character Name: Kim Kitsuragi
Canon: Disco Elysium
Faction: Sutoku
Brief Rundown: Kim is a middle-aged, emotionally repressed police detective from a post-war Eastern European pastiche of a nation. He's generally kind and polite even as he holds people at a distance, but he can be convinced to go a little batshit, as a treat. If you're looking for a straight man (figuratively, not literally), he's your guy!

Initial Ideas: - For Sutokus: Kim offered to help w tailoring, so that's an option for pre-event stuff!
- Gambling: he doesn't have the stomach for too much high stakes gambling, but will have brought a discrete amount so that he can give it a shot and also get a good look at the locale and clientele -- his personal rubbing elbows has mainly been with lower-class youkai, and he's interested in seeing how the youkai with cash to burn act.
- Pleasure Palace: I probably won't be doing a prompt for this one, but Kim can certainly be convinced to accompany someone else, even if it's just to watch an entertainer friend perform, though he would seem impervious to the hosts' charms at best, and uncomfortable at worst.
- Gossip: He'll be keeping his ear to the ground when it comes to intel and gossip, usually by being largely innocuous. He'll be happy to cooperate with fellow Sutokus (or people from other clans that he already personally trusts) to do so. He'll also try to figure out what's going on with Ringo-chan, though he's stridently against reuniting her with her father until they know more, concerned that she's from a bad home situation. Unbeknownst to him, his power will allow him to more easily fetch information with a smile, which isn't what you'd expect from a guy who looks and acts like Kim... curious, isn't it?
- Tanabata: Kim will be in awe of the display, though he'll still be jumpy and liable to keep his guard up -- he remembers what happened the last two times he let his guard down in the face of spectacle, and he's not having it, any effects from the drugs making him even cagier. He could use a hand to help him relax, or perhaps to even make a wish, something that he seems oddly reluctant to do.
- Iron Bear: Kim will get into a brief argument with Enma officers due to his instinct to follow in hot pursuit, but will ultimately bow to their authority. He will do what investigative work he can. Because it's limited - and because everyone will be held until late at night - this might be a good prompt for just being stuck trying to pass the time in an uncomfortable situation together.
- Anything! Just let me know!

Anything else: Permissions here!

I want uncllleeee are you more interested in having them chat about gossip pre-attack, or after the attack goes down?

Though I also think the lighthearted option of having them chat about Tanabata might be a nice change of pace as well! I think it'd be a nice way to further the bites of lore they've gotten about each other lately.

Ydris would definitely appreciate Kim helping them talk up a Celestial or two, as they're planning to drum up some investor dollars at this event. They could always use extra capital for the business!

Advanced apologies when the amounts Ydris goes around asking for makes the man's eyeballs bulge out of his head.

Very belatedly, I'm down for that!! The amount of money being slung around will absolutely make his eyes bug out lmfao but I think that all that will coincide with the general role he's going to be playing at the event -- he's going to be acting the sycophant in order to wheedle more information out of them, and I think being seen as one of Ydris' lackeys (RIP...) will only help him in that endeavor
