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: Mira
Contact:

moonjelly/PM, and I can also be found in the game Discord server if you use that.

Character Name: Emily Dyer
Canon: Identity V
Faction: Sutoku Alliance
Brief Rundown:

A local doctor who'd prefer you think she is perfectly normal and has no secrets and is just here to help. Kind, friendly, and hardworking to a fault. Actually a survivor of a looping death game and thus bent towards her own survival as well as that of those she cares about. Practical, somewhat jaded, but trying to make the best of this new world. A partial lieutenant for the Sutoku, and with a dose of learning about politics, bent towards ensuring the Alliance doesn't crumble and people stay alive. Being Ryouma's second is mainly just to ensure the latter - particularly his own survival.

Emily is also a CRAU from slumscape, and that means she's currently possessed by a tengu spirit named Hibiki. Though they only sometimes come out to commentate, they're as much a part of her as her own limbs, and influence her thoughts and decision making, and may fully take her over at times to experience life for their own self. Let me know if you ever want to chat with them!

Indepth info post is here and game specific info is here!

Initial Ideas:

Gambling: So this will come in two flavors. Emily herself will eschew regular betting on games to instead occasionally put down bets on the outcome of certain fights at the arena - she'll keep herself back from the bloodshed, but this she can read better than the games of chance. If you look like you'll stand a good round, she might put something down on you.

Alternatively, her possessing youkai will be coming out at a point, and they stand a better chance at the actual tables. If they catch you cheating, they may call you out before the dealer. If you're the dealer? Hope you like the feeling of someone watching your very soul as you try to rig the game. Good luck.

Gossip: Using her influence and general ability to listen well, Emily's getting some news about Iron Bear that she'll be open to sharing with her associates. Beyond that, she's happy to provide a distraction if someone else needs an in to talk to another person - but she will grab any Sutoku who seem too obvious in their pressing or just downright pathetic and steer them away for a mild talk. Discretion is the name of the game, after all.

Tanabata: Emily will be happily affected by the star magic and in a wonderful mood - even if she doesn't know people, she'll be apt to want to spread that joy and love to others. Whether that manifests as old friends, new allies, or something else, it's all on the table. She's also slipping a wish of her own on the tree, and will encourage people to do the same! What's the harm, after all?

Possession: As mentioned earlier, Emily's possessing tengu will be allowed to come out and enjoy Tanabata at the event. Hibiki is an observer type with an uncanny ability to read people, a taste for enjoying life, and a love for stories. They are also something of an asshole in that weird old soul way and have a literal taste for blood, and Emily formally apologizes for them. Hit them up and get a weird new friend, listen to them playing the shinobue they've won off someone, or just get read for filth point blank.

Others: I'm open to pretty much anything and everything! Have a thought, throw it my way, and we'll see what we can make happen. We're going Taisho for outfit inspiration.

Anything else:

when Ryouma doesn't die... (thank you

obviously at all times i want emmoosh things, but to be more specific, i'd love for them to be on opposite ends of a game

actual casino game wise or the two of them betting on opposite sides of a match?

casino! musashi probably wouldn't bet on fights, she'd want to participate.

ok! so emily won't be betting on those, that's entirely hibiki's territory, if that changes your wishes! emily's better at reading physical conditions of fighters, but hibiki's more in the mental game of chances and cheating

Musashi will enjoy herself either way, and probably catch up with Emily later for some dancing under the stars.

in that case she gets emily in probably the best mood she's ever been in around moosh, honestly
