Plot line title (if any): Waterfall Hunt
Name of the lead player: Bev, Raisa, Chris
Name of the lead character: Gillermo Stregazza, Raisa Valois, Eric Lamont, Cascata Stregazza.
Name of secondary player(s): Anyone who wants in!
Name of secondary character(s): see above
Time line: However long it takes, possibly something like a month or so RP time? Who knows?
Description of plot:
So while Gil is off in Azzalle proposing and things, he's left his house in the care of Raisa. Just so happens Raisa's a sweetheart, and wants to help him find his missing sister, so she's going to enlist Eric, and both of them are going to play Sherlock and Watson in the city, looking for clues. There's a family portrait in the townhome, which Raisa and Eric might use for identification purposes, and Gil left Raisa with what leads he had, but how helpful they are, we're not sure yet. This is the bit where we need help with possible clues to put Raisa and Eric onto some leads. The idea is that there's probably information circulating on Night's Doorstep: possibly some thugs were involved in the original snatching, maybe someone in the Yeshuite/Tsingani community could have witnessed/heard something during the plague that sets off Raisa and Eric on the right trail, some conversation that out of context made no sense, but that makes sense in context, things like that.
Plot Ending: The assumption is that Gillermo got whisked out of the house by his folk during the plague. Presumably, so did his sister Cascata. In the thread with Mael, we met the steward of the D'Iz-Entre-Mer marquisat, Florence Danton, who seems to have a stake in the Stregazza siblings being out of commission. (Danton is currently with Gil in Azzalle, but he obviously has minions in the City of Elua.)
What it turns out to be, is that Danton took advantage of the plague mayhem to whisk Cascata away at that moment. The logic of his motivation is that with the children out of the picture, Danton gets to stay in control of the Azzalese estate, since their mother is comfortable in La Serenissima, and not coming back. This gives him plenty of opportunity to embezzle (something already hinted at in the thread with Mael), and the like. And maybe he's a bit of a sick twisted guy who enjoys this sort of thing, too. That's not excluded either.
He could be keeping her in the city, actually, or somewhere in another countryside but what's for sure, he'd have accomplices in the city. They would have declared both Stregazzas dead, and one of them (some NPC, for sure) would have managed to falsify records.
Cascata in the meantime is kept in a temple of Shemhazai, in Siovale, where she now serves as an acolyte under a false identity, and under high surveillance. She's amnesiac, due to some drugs of sort. Cascata will be found by Eric and Raisa. They'll need to get Gillermo over in an attempt to break her amnesia, etc.
Any extra information: So basically, we're inviting everyone to participate in making a trail of clues!
Please reply to this thread if you have any ideas, if you think you have a character who could have heard something, etc.
It'd be lovely to have a group brainstorming on how to make this happen, and basically, we're inviting everyone to participate, hopefully to help foster plot for those characters left behind in the city, while everyone else is out at war.
