[ Plotting ] Ghosts of Christmas
So, as discussed in email, we'll be running a ghost event for Christmas-ish time. The in-game dates will be Dec. 21 to Dec. 28, but you may play any posts or threads as long as you need to in order to complete them.
Please make sure to use the event tag for anything you post, whether during the event or as a log/linkdrop after the event. It will be # inn-world: ghosts of winter.
As a reminder, these are the features of the plot:
* very loosely based on A Christmas Carol's ghosts
* anyone, dead or alive, can visit you at the Inn in ghost form and can take you on a visit to the present, past or future
* one ghost, per character, at a time; if they leave, another can come
* they can interact with you and anyone else you/they want to interact with
* ghosts do not have the powers/abilities of their living selves and cannot affect the reality of the Inn except through characters
* if you have a cool idea for something not mentioned here, it's probably fine. just run it by the mods if it's going to impact other players/characters
* Opt out: no one has to participate; the Shrine and individual rooms as desired will be ghost-free locations
* Mod-involvement: None, except as noted.
Please use the comments to ask questions, plot with fellow players, offer yourself to sock ghosts/ask for sockers, and so on. You are NOT required to use this post in any way, however as ghosts provide interesting and new interaction possibilities, it's a good way to invite other people to play with you.

Re: Jane Doe
Thor is going to be so heartbroken
Requesting a follow-up thread after Jane finds out
Re: Jane Doe
I was always going to have her discover she wasn't Sif even if I'd had to bring in Sif to do it. :P But, with Val arriving I thought it was the perfect time for her to learn it and to learn about the poisoning. This plot gave her the opportunity to do it.
She will miss the connection that she thought she had, but will always treasure the friendship that developed because of it.
Re: Jane Doe
Thor will be glad for her to figure out more about who she really is. And honestly, he'll be curious to find out what happened to her. Their relationship may have been born from mistaken belief, but his friendship with her is still true -- Sif or no.
