♥ November (Malom) Event Plotting
Feel free to use this entry for plotting purposes as you please, and use the Mod Question thread below for any questions. Also, please utilize the General Plotting Comment below for any non-event related plotting for things like open mingles, parties, your own plots, etc. You can also use the Havenwell Status page for original prompt ideas.
A log will be posted on the day the event begins, but characters are welcome to create their own entries as well. This event will run from 15 November to 30 November. Click on each prompt's title to see the text. If you have any questions, feel free to direct them to the FAQ or to the Mod Question thread.
❥ PROMPT I: Fetch Quest Frenzy
With the widespread damage of the previous month still a large issue, offworlders may find the marking-based powers of that incident manifesting again in different, passive forms. Regardless of the color one's ability takes, a little bit of trial and error will lead the markings' bearers to understand the powers are now geared towards helping rebuild or rehabilitate the city in various ways; examples being manifesting as telekinesis to move heavy objects around, or a magical compass to help locate something lost in the chaos. Some may find themselves inexplicably filled with knowledge previously unknown, Matrix-style: characters who have never picked up a hammer before will suddenly possess the skills needed to rebuild furniture or repair structural damage, weld parts together, or get really good at organizing search parties. Feel free to get creative with it, but these abilities are meant to build, not destroy like last month, so destructive powers are not likely to manifest unless for good reason.
There's no shortage of work to be done either; from dismantling petrified worms to running errands for the surviving locals, offworlders may find themselves lucky to have the supernatural assistance of the markings and their powers. With time and effort, taking up such tasks to aid the locals and fellow offworlders alike might just go a long way towards healing Havenwell on both physical and emotional fronts.

❥ PROMPT II: Fruits Basket
In places where the worms were slain before their fellows were petrified, their massive corpses have been reclaimed by the ground--specifically, they've turned to surprisingly fertile soil. So fertile that it would appear trees are already sprouting where they fell, bearing an arrangement of oddly-shaped fruits. With how delicious they look, one would surely be forgiven for daring to try them, but the result might be just a bit surprising...
-Eating a round fruit will make one have a sudden desire to cuddle up to someone else; the more of the fruit they've consumed, the more insistent the desire. Just take a bite? Maybe you could do with a light shoulder touch, but eat the whole thing and you'll realize you might be suddenly looking for some big hugs with anyone receptive to the idea.
-The square shaped fruits have a somewhat more subtle effect. The more one eats of a square fruit, they gain a steadily more obvious gentle glow and warmth to their bodies. With enough of one, someone could easily turn into a combination nightlight and comfortably warm space heater.
-Being curious enough to eat a spiky fruit will end up with one having some trouble keeping their footing; this fruit leads one to find no traction underfoot, sending them slip n' sliding around. Be careful, you might just skate right into someone's arms!
-Eating a star-shaped fruit may cause a gradual drowsiness, where residents will feel the urge to lay down and have a nap. Seems the aftermath of the worm attack left some lingering magic. (A small percentage may alternatively find themselves transformed into sheep. Weird.) Being held or gently cuddled, whether on the spot or while being carried home, will reverse the effects.

❥ PROMPT III: Corporate Concessions
You might recall that the research towers were awfully unhelpful during the attacks, preferring instead to seal themselves up in protective shielding and leave the rest of the city to fend for themselves. Now that the danger has passed, there have been some understandably divisive responses to this decision from their fellows. Many of the tower workers have pleaded ignorance for this choice, openly (or quietly, to avoid disciplinary action) blaming the higher-ups for creating company-wide lockdowns and not allowing anyone in- or out. Many were helpless to assist in relocating friends or family, and some have quit their positions over this stance. Those in charge of the decision-making are unapologetic for the most part, stating that due to previous security breaches, their priority was to protect their research and their employees, for the greater good of the world.
They are aware that doing this was not by any means a good look, so as an olive branch, they have released the research materials confirmed as stolen in the previous security breach to the public network, as they have been unable to track down those materials and would rather control its distribution themselves. Damage done, after all; those who know could pass it on as they please. Additionally, they are reallocating some tower resources to helping with restoration and rebuilding the surrounding areas and public buildings, and have donated a substantial amount of dora to the city budget for whatever purpose the council deems appropriate. Whether you think the released data is true or if their efforts are sufficient is up to you, really.

General Plotting Comment
cr plotting!
Canon: 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
Age: 16
Brief personality: A grumpy grouchy teenage mech pilot whose million and one layers of cynicism and depression grime exist to cover up the fact that she has a big sappy heart and if you manage to earn her trust and loyalty she will lasso the moon for you. Basically a neighbourhood stray that will eventually stop trying to claw your hand off so long as you do not give up
Seeking: Right now I'm mostly looking for gen stuff to get Ryoko settled as she's coming in from a canon point where she'll be pretty mistrusting of basically everyone. Here's some stuff in particular I'm looking for, though!
Characters from canons with kaiju/giant mechs: i don't have an excuse for this i just always think it's funny
Other teen girls: Ryoko is probably going to trust/bond with other girls her age a little more quickly which would make a nice foundation for building other cr. also she never gets the chance to just make any normal fucking friends in canon and that depresses me!!!!
Adults she can trust: this is more of a long-term thing, but Ryoko is coming into the game on the heels of being betrayed about as hard as it is possible to be betrayed by the one adult she trusted and as such i would love to eventually have her deal with this and have some adults who are NOT dogshit humans help her out. I will say up front that this will probably start off as potentially negative CR but if you're down with that, pls do hit me up!
Anything else? I've mentioned this a few times but Ryoko unavoidably comes with some baggage related to chronic pain, amnesia and loss of identity as well as some other stuff that's even more unpleasant. My opt out post has a list of it all so check it out if there's anything you think you need to be wary of.
