Alright. All hands on deck. I have established a loose plot and am needing feedback from everyone.
1) Please let me know if you wish to continue or not.
2) If you do wish to continue, please think about how your characters would work with this more concrete direction. Think about how to get into group.
3) What are your character’s motivations? What do you want to get out of the narrative?
4) Thoughts on this?
See info below:
Back when Cordova was first imagined, the building plans were denied outright by the citizens of Cordova. They had a perfectly built school despite the fact that it was a piece of crap that was a death trap. Still, it was a school and would save them money. The administration and some of the teachers of the school district were not about to sit back and let their beautiful plans go to waste. After discussing all the possible ways to get the plans approved, several of the administration and teachers who were into other extra-curricular activities decided that perhaps it was time to do something a bit risky. So, the six of them gathered together on the grounds in which the high school was to be built and performed an ancient ritual, not knowing the consequences. Had they continued reading in the book they were using; the book that was now potentially lost, the administrators would have realized they had condemned the school in a horrific manner. The ritual required a blood sacrifice of a ginormous amount, but would not seek out payment for ten years. Ten years later, Cordova High School occupants found themselves locked away in another dimension while something crept through the school killing everything that came across its path.
Also, also… those characters that are more in tune with their ESP senses, will begin to sense things are off. Of course, those that aren’t all ESP-y will also be affected, but not as quickly. Part of the unknown entity’s powers is to make people vividly hallucinate! This allows both Dash and you all to have your own custom-tailored scary moments, such as a dead parent suddenly appearing with half his/her face missing [I dunno].
Simple running around will not save the students and staff nor will hiding from the unknown. In order to potentially survive, those alive must band together and determine a way to either escape from the building or more dangerously, attempt to kill whatever is stalking them. Those characters that are more prone to leading, must work together in order to keep everyone alive. Characters that can hunt for clues or are more brainstorming, must do their best to do just that. All characters should play a role in this horror-fest or they will pay the price. Be imaginative in what your character uses to protect him or herself. Remember, there are science labs and a woodshop accessible to students. Talking to teachers and any administrative staff that is still alive is an option to see what wisdom they might have. Who knows, might find someone that recalls the ritual or details concerning it. Surely someone read the warning page, right?
