PLOTTING POST: Whoville
PLOTTING POST: WHOVILLE
Posted November 29, 2017
What you need to know
Hey everyone! As mentioned in the latest mod announcement, the month of December will see characters taken to the second Prison World: Whoville, home of the Grinch! This is intended to be a lower key event, which will give you all a festive setting in which to play over the holiday period. Here's what will happen and when:
- On Saturday 2 December, Everyone is invited to the Winter Wonderland ball! Secret Santa gifts are exchanged, everyone has a great time.
- At the end of the night, the Grinch crashes the party to steal all the presents. In worse news, the power that brought him here comes courtesy of D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. This means...
- As the Grinch leaves, he'll take some of you with him. This is optional! Characters who didn't attend the party can still be kidnapped, and those who did might be lucky enough to escape. Feel free to play with this as you wish.
- The trip off-world will knock characters out. The next morning, on Sunday 3 December, they'll wake up in Whoville!
- The Grinch will hijack the Network and make a post, explaining what's happened. He's mean and bitter, and will refuse to take them home.
- Kidnapped characters will remain trapped in Whoville. Their hosts, the Who, are having a terrible Christmas - the Grinch has stolen all their presents! Characters must help them regain their holiday spirit, and show the Grinch what the holiday really means.
- Unfortunately, the Grinch will retreat to his mountain lair shortly after dropping the prisoners off in Whoville. His patrons, D.E.S.T.I.N.Y, have seen fit to put an impenetrable forcefield around his mountain. Both he, and his dimension-hopping sleigh, will be protected behind the field.
- Characters will also find that all superhuman powers have been nullified. Basically, while they're in Whoville, they'll be baseline humans. Note: characters may retain a non-human appearance, but all powers and abilities will be nerfed to a baseline human level. Skills may be retained.
- Despite his forcefield protection, the Grinch will make occasional appearances in Whoville. Characters may run into him from time to time. Do try to make a good impression!
- By December 24th, the Grinch will have seen enough! He'll regret his actions, turn his sleigh around, and bring everyone back to Xist in time for Christmas.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE GIFTS?
Of course, how could we forget? This whole thing started when the Grinch stole everyone's Secret Santa presents. Don't worry: he'll give them back when he brings you home. But speaking of those gifts, those who signed up for Secret Santa have now been given their assignments! Everyone who signed up to participate should have received a PM from the Mod account with the name and username of their recipient. Please let us know if you haven't heard from us!
If you have signed up for Secret Santa, please ensure that you add a present for your recipient to the log on 2 December. We don't want anyone to be left out!
CONFRONTING THE GRINCH
The Grinch will make appearances in Whoville throughout the event. Unfortunately, it won't be possible for him to thread with everyone. If you are interested in having your character confront the Grinch in person, please fill in the template below and comment with it HERE. To make things fair, we will use RNG to choose the winners. You are also invited to sign up as a group; however, if you do this, please ensure that all group members are available to complete the thread.
If you don't get chosen for a log thread, please don't be disappointed! The Grinch will also be making a Network post to which anyone can reply.
