FAQ MASTER POST
Apr. 5th, 2013 12:16 amWill characters on any of the ships think they've always had some appropriate role, or will they still remember who they are, and realize it's a castle thing?
Their memories will be completely in tact. They will have to use clues from the ships themselves to figure out where they are and what's going on. More info on that will appear as the plot progresses.
Will characters' familiars be in stasis or allowed to go with them on either ship?
All pets/familiars/pokemon will remain in the castle and not be a part of the plot at all.
Does the second permanent loss thing still apply if characters die during this plot?
It does indeed. All but one of the regular death rules apply for this plot. More info about the way death will work for the plot will be given on the day one OOC post.
For those of us "not humans" is being naturally tougher to damage than human considered a "power".
Bodies made of metal and stuff are just harder to damage than flesh and blood.
No, that doesn't count as a power. They can keep their metal bodies/armour and its toughness.
Is there any set way deaths are or should occur once the plot is in motion, i.e. accident or via other residents?
There are no NPCs in this plot, how a character dies will be very much up to the player. I'm trying to keep the plot as much as surprise as possible for those who have not seen the film, but as the plot progresses, how death can occur will become more obvious.
Any salvageable food/drinkable water on the EH?
There is, but it's very little, not enough to keep all those people fed for very long. Rationing will have to be a thing.
Does any tech that comes along with the characters still work? Like would a sylladex inventory still work for a Homestuck character, ect.?
Yep! Tech (so long as it's not a super advanced weapon that can put them at a great advantage compared to others) will still work!
Will there be any sort of manuals for characters on the L&C to find? Also, what will they have in the way of tools/emergency light sources?
There will indeed. They will appear in the IC sections when the mingle post goes up.
Just to be sure: the L&C is going to lose gravity when everything else goes kaput, right?
It most certainly is!
Regarding the "decorated" rooms on the Event Horizon: do they smell as bad as they look?
They really do. It's pretty gross in there.
These noises and not-aloneness, is it basically whatever you want to relate it to?
Absolutely! Though the hallucinations won't appear til tomorrow, they are all personal to each individual, so the noises and weird feelings can be too!
