THE TIME WARP AGAIN, ETC
HELLO I COME BEARING PLOT. This plot is going to be primarily player run, and as widespread or as narrow focused as you like. It could easily involve the whole game or just a few people. It is optional, but radical.
The idea: TIME TRAVEL.
The structure of this time travel plot will be thus:
PART ONE
Ten years in the future of CH, there has been a Bad End. For those unfamiliar, this means that everything has gone to SHIT through some means or another, and is tonally a post apocalyptic world of tomorrow. The nature of this “apocalypse” will depend on player plotting, and the people who want to step up to be bad guys. Has someone risen up to become an evil cyborg overlord? Have Alternians taken over the planet? Has TRIDENT taken over CONDOR? These are the questions that we must answer.
Everyone who wants in will get to make a gritty, dark future AU version of their characters. An INCIDENT will occur that will send a group of these characters into THE PAST (aka present game time) in an attempt to stop whatever bullshit has caused the future to suck so much. This could be one event, or multiple.
The important thing is that we have a team of time travelers in Los Angeles attempting to fix the future, and weirding everyone out. They must acquire some kind of MacGuffin, or stop some disaster.
PART TWO
With the mission more or less in hand, the time travelers will travel to the future – and this time, they will be bringing a motley of past people with them, to experience the rotten world of tomorrow. Why? Because they need help doing some kind of thing, most likely dicking with a time machine in a way that will properly reset the timeline instead of creating an offshoot.
So they are basically fighting to make their timeline no longer exist.
At any rate, they need backup. Time will move along in both timelines more or less linearly, though there can be some variation for convenience. How this part ends really depends on you.
So what we need to do here is PLAN. Who wants in? Who wants to timetravel? Who wants to be villains?
Use the comments below to decide. The plot will start mid November and will proceed indefinitely, since the rest of the world will be able to continue on regardless.

slams this down 10 minutes before bed
Raiden and Chris both want to go to the future but beyond that I have NO IDEA what to do with them
no subject
FUTURE!TERRY is evil, probably excessively powered in the fear department because of Magic Reasons and wears a lot of Cool Goth Suits. I have no idea what his motivations are beyond Misanthropy and Being A Dick but really who cares. Will probably not be coming to the present but can mos def be around in the future if people want to harass him.
FUTURE!RAIDEN is a quasi-emotionless battlebot/vigilante who has EVEN LESS qualms about killing the shit out of people than he has now. PRRROBABLY WON'T BE COMING TO THE PRESENT? I haven't decided yet.
FUTURE!CHRIS is a roguish anti-hero type with stubble and scars and is worryingly buff when compared to current Chris. Also his arms are now full of weapons because why the fuck not. (Think Adam Jensen except maybe not with the Typhoon or maybe WITH THE TYPHOON this is not set in stone.) His fashion sense has vastly improved in the near future and also he will be in the present because this is a gift you all need in your lives.
CURRENT!TERRY will be sticking in the present, though he may be helping with the whole co-ordinating this clusterfuck of a situation with CONDOR and whatnot.
CURRENT!CHRIS is up in the air, he may want to go to the future he may want to stay here. idk what to do with him.
CURRENT!RAIDEN is going to want to kick ass in the future it's gonna be great guys, you can trust him he has a lot of weapons and can do sweet backflips.
(I also have a plotting plurk here, and my plurk is public so you don't need to add me to reply)
