Without being summoned I might add. We already have you trying to destroy things here, we don't need an unsummoned Hickman tilting things in your favor.

Destroy is such a harsh word. apt but harsh.

In the interest of speeding up the story progression a bit, this will be a threefer weekend. The next 3 portions of the official story thread will be posted (on that thread, obviously) over the next 48 hours, starting with "Provocation", which I just posted.

Enjoy!

Recruiting Extras

The next 8 people who post a character name they want to appear in the Day of Vigilance story here will be picked for a cameo role in an upcoming story.

You also get your pick of any costume recipe (salvage included), if you want one, courtesy of the Mentor Project.

Come on down!


NB - anyone posting after the initial 8 may still be picked, at writer's discretion

JWB here--- just a quick note folks, these will most likely just be cameos. you know, the "oh look its..." kind of thing. Just please give us a character name, hero or villain, and a brief description of your appearance.

But, if you think you want to take a bigger part in things, get with Stalemate and let him know what you might be able to do. Contributing partners might get a bigger part.

Enjoy folks.

Indeed - thanks for pointing that out JWB.

This would not affect your character's lore or reputation in any way, for those applying for the cameos.

Also, anyone who hosts an event on July 9 will be offered the option of tying into the Day of Vigilance plotline (but no obligation to do so). Some have already proposed activities with this in mind, and we're still awaiting some confirmations from others.

This is a great way to get some spotlight upon your SG / VG, and could be used as a venue to recruit or promote if you're looking to expand.

Let me know what costume recipes interest you guys, and thanks for stepping up.

I'm guessing winged boots for Kreetch?

Rocket Boots it is buddy. I'll get those out to you via ingame email tomorrow night. =)



In other news:

You've heard it here first folks!

There will soon be a dedicated Ventrilo server made available for the Protector community.

Indeed, @Lotus Maximus will be announcing it officially at a later date, but he's authorized me to mention right now that there will be a channel made available in time for our event named Protector Vigilance.

Even if you're not a big fan of participating in voice chat, simply listening in just *might* give participants an added advantage that the type chat players will not have. ;-)

Boots sent to Arch last night.

Sio, what would you like to have? I forgot to ask you...


If there's anyone else interested in seeing their character cameo'd in an upcoming story, Monday June 6 will be the deadline for submissions. The costume recipe offer still stands.

The story needs to be written, checked, and then eventually released next week. ;-)
