PARADISA OOC

FIRENZE
NOVEMBRE 15

A power based on faith can only be brought down by shattering that faith, certainly a Machiavellian concept, but it may just be the option with the fewest casualties. We wouldn't want to be slaughtering the hapless sheep along with the wolf, do we?

On Nov. 15, the entire city will gather in the town square again for another spectacle: an ordeal by fire. Fra Savonarola has agreed to Niccolo Machiavelli's challenge to walk through flames and prove the truth of his preachings, but it seems the weather (perhaps divine intervention?) has another agenda entirely. The IC mingle post is up.

This won't end well. Consider yourself warned.

FIRENZE
NOVEMBRE 10-12tk

Despite last night ending on such a sour note, there's quite an enthusiastic crowd gathered at the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, people jostling to hear Fra Savonarola's SUNDAY SERMON. For all his lack of appreciation for the finer things in life, some might find his points valid. So will you help him cleanse the city of sin and vanities?

On Nov. 10-12, the friar's followers will knock on every door to demand any vanities, whether they be paintings, clothes, jewelry or books. Those who refuse will be looted or even declared a witch, a sodomite, and dragged to the dungeons to await their fate. Walking through the city in anything but rags will become more and more dangerous as the days go by; you never know when those Piagnoni will find you.

Everything is permissible in the name of God.

Everyone's welcome to NPC these followers attacking and arresting your characters or even have your characters become one of them. No sign-ups are required. Those set to die should be captured in the next three days. The IC mingle post for the sermon is up. The party post is still open and there will be no more IC posts until Nov. 13, so feel free to make your own posts and logs and I'm still backtagging with the NPC too!

FIRENZE
NOVEMBRE 9-15

How do you follow an act with visits to a demonic spaceship, Jurassic Park then a wizarding school? Why, a visit to the cradle of civilization the Renaissance itself of course: the Republic of Florence circa 1498.

When residents wake up on Nov. 9, they will either find themselves in a few inns scattered throughout the city or placed within the society with AU memories. If you'd like to flesh out an AU background for your character, the cheatsheet may be helpful. There can be as many as three deaths during this plot, a few injured victims and the chance to join a cult or a revolt. You didn't think it's all sunshine and salamis, did you? To volunteer for deaths, please PM this account with the character's name after asking for mod approval.

The opt-out is to stay in a villa somewhere in the Tuscan countryside with all castle perks and an invisible wall keeping residents within a mile's radius. The journals will function for everyone, including those with AU memories and those opting out. All powers are deactivated and non-humans can remain as they are or turn human, it's up to you! The most the Florentines will do is side-eye them or burn them at the stake
