Convenience Store Raid - Groups/Plotting Post

[braavado]

Hey, guys, sorry for the delay. Here are the groups for the convenience store raid that will be happening on June 20th:


Convenience Store
These groups will be actually going into the store and attempting to find whatever Yao is hiding in there.


GROUP ONE
▶ Korra (braavado)
▶ Ty Lee (chiblocker)
▶ Beast Boy (thebeastwithout)
▶ Mikasa (minuscule)

GROUP TWO
▶ Ciel (seventh)

GROUP FIVE

Pyramid Head
These groups will be in charge of distracting and drawing Pyramid Head away from the entrance while the store groups head in. They'll also be covering for anyone who makes it out of the store. Korra will be telling everyone in the PH group to disengage as soon as the store groups are in, since PH cannot be killed.

▶ Presea (emptywarmth)
▶ Vin (ladyheir)
▶ Oguna (oguna)


Outside Support
This group will be here to help with the first aid and keeping an eye on the groups fighting pyramid head. (Feel free to have injured characters taken to them for patching up!)

SUPPORT GROUP
▶ Pepper (norabbits)
▶ Loki (tricksterofasgard)
▶ Stephanie (quipper)
▶ Katara (kyasdaughter)



Feel free to use this post as a place to plot with other players! (I highly encourage this, actually.) If you have any questions about the raid, you can reach me by PMing this journal or through gaslamp!

Korra here will be posting to the network about the raid...soon. (Today or tomorrow).

Since she's icly organising this, feel free to approach her for for info in the post or out of it!

Pyramid Head Groups

[raavashing]

Coordination attempt between the groups!

Maybe set up a distraction hit and run thing? Where one group hits first, then the next, then the last?

Wan is likely to try and drop PH into a hole in the ground, so Group 1 should maybe go last if we do the hit and run thing? If we can pull it off that PH is far enough away from the store by the time he gets dropped into the ground we might be able to set it up so he's not a danger for when they enter. Or not as much of a danger. Since he'll probably be able to get out somehow regardless.

Thoughts?

[super_nanny]

I THINK THIS IS A GR8 PLAN. Also dropping huge things on top of him once he's in the hole might be pretty awesome also, because otherwise he'll probably try and dig his way out.

[raavashing]

Do we have anyone in any group that can drop large things on him? Other than Wan, because yeah, he could drop a boulder on him, but he's not sure that would be better than just leaving the hole open. At least without anything on top, they can watch Pyramid head to see how fast he climbs... and maybe make that climbing difficult.

[oguna]

Sounds like a good idea to me too. Not that Oguna would comment on it because he's an uncooperative brat, but none the less. He's not going to say no to a plan that sounds alright with him.

[oguna]

Speaking of group activities, though, to PH Group THREE, I'm sorry you'll have to deal with Oguna. He's a really skilled assassin but he doesn't like working with others; most of all if he doesn't know if they're worth his time or capable fighters.....

[chiblocker]

Whoo, reuniting with Korra and Beast Boy for a group thing...and she'll get to meet Mikasa. Ty Lee will be going in with her Kyoshi Warrior get up on the grounds that there will be fighting and she is fore-warned. Also, if you don't have me on plurk feel free to add me @ lucylovespluto. c:

[thebeastwithout]

Whoo reunion party!!

Beast Boy will try to lead them the right way, which is almost certainly now the wrong way. He'll warn them in advance about illusions that you have to ignore no matter what they say or do, hallways where they need to pretend to be Kite, and spiral paths that hypnotize you.

[braavado]

Heyooo hallways where they need to pretend to be Kite

Noire actually mentioned that to Korra, so she'll probably ask Beast Boy about that at some point!

[minuscule]

it's like the restoration party part 2

except i have a different character this time...

also i'll add you on plurk, if that's okay! (if you see a friend req from darumaka, that's me!)

[chiblocker]

Completely chill, and I added you back! I think we share both our games anyway...?

GROUP FOUR

[outrival]

Yo, Group Four!

Most of them are raid veterans, I think? Zohra, at least, will be wanting to get an idea of what Izumo and Joel can do, because knowledge is power and all that. Especially if anything happens and team-killing becomes necessary, welp— I mean. /whistles

[nosentimentalist]

HECK YEAH RAID VETERANS

But yeah, Keats as been through this stuff before, and he's definitely going to question what people can do BEFORE they get into the store. Because the last time he went, they all tried to kill each other. Fun times.

[outrival]

ZOHRA'S GOING TO BE GLAD TO HAVE YOU ON THE TEAM AGAIN KEATS at least you're strong and rational

[thievingironman]

YES Izumo's done this before too, though he was...murdered by a keyblade that time gj. He's going to want to know of any special/supernatural abilities and all that's for sure, especially since he doesn't have any himself or are we all just a bunch of normal humans here

[outrival]

poor Izumo... /pats

Keats is... not normal and Zohra's technically a normal human but he's got magic at his disposal, so.

[aintyourdad]

Joel is a first-timer to the convenience store! But he's got long experience with, uh, breaking into places and scavenging and stuff, so yeah! He's just a badass normal so don't hit him with any magic guys, gosh.

GROUP THREE

[kagemane]

so.

lets do the thing.

rock lee and shikamaru are both new! though shikamaru has a tendency to take point once he has the deets.

Re: GROUP THREE

[slugs]

if theres anything shikamaru needs to know sakura is of course happy to talk to him about it, but i doubt she knows anything that like... might prepare them for the convenience store. except maybe to say haven be crazy yo anything could happen, but thats not really helpful....


anyway after i thought about it a bit it'd probably be good to have lee for front line fighting, axl and shika in the middle because shadow justus/tactician and plasma blaster, and keep sakura in back for medical and just watching their backs in general.

if anyone thinks otherwise punch me, but thats what the skill sets seem to dictate

GROUP ONE

[maipokerface]

:V Ho boy, distractions.

This will be Mai's first raid and her first time seeing our lovely Pyramid Head.

Your FRIENDLY Support Group~

[tricksterofasgard]

Wait. LOKI in support? He sure must be planning something--

Well. Partly. Mostly he wants to see if this whole lot can damage or even beat PH without getting near that monster again himself.

You sure can get your heals from him. He knowledge in healing magic may not be great, but it's Asgardian healing magic, meant to heal dense Asgardian butts, so it should be more than enough to heal a little human.

Aside from that... You may be able to get a little enchantment out of him? Try him. He'd love to see PH getting a beating.

Re: Your FRIENDLY Support Group~

[norabbits]

Clearly these two were meant to be in a group together.

Group Five

[purestintentions]

Uh, this is Jude's first raid AND time seeing the lovely Pyramid Head but he's really quite a capable fighter when it comes down to it and works well with others and is actually a smart kid so he can and will help wherever he can, as he can think on his feet and pack a punch.

He's also a good healer if people need patched up as well /o/

Re: Group Five

[magicisreal]

Hello group five token cute character

Meet your token magic user

Rose has magic wands that do magic damage with some very poorly-specified magic spells. She can also fly. She can also divine the path that will get them to the best possible outcome...or the best possible achievable outcome. Because they can totally be different things. She's met Pyramid Head just once, not in a fight but in a territory-line battle that she kind of invented in her head.

Pyramid Head won.

I am excited to have a group in this and to raid with two cuties like Jude and Thor ok.

[uninvincible]

SO I'm about 1000% sure I signed Tony up for this, but he's not on any of the lists? D: Unless I screwed it up somehow?
