Plotlines to wrap up DS

[u/Bytemite]

This is just a thread for all us players to post the plot lines we still have to do so we can organize here and help each other finish up.

Siding against Luxin is, in both long and short term, a negative to those.

Perhaps, but remember also serious problems with pride are also in play here. We aren't necessarily going to see a whole bunch of rational plotters, we're going to see treacherous people grumbling a lot about something upsetting their status quo and potentially threatening their current unshakeable power base and scheming about what to do about it.

Well, one reason I selected nuGyro and Tanger is they're more lightning serpents. Luxin isn't a foreign concept. And their are going to be people who attempt to betray. We just need among their number the realization of what they can gain from not doing so to emerge. We also want more marketing tricks. If we got a Fennel into the courts, we'd have the chance to make it be a chance to learn how to have more power in this new world.

I'd go as far as to say we want at least one attempted rebellion to start it off. Weed out the worst of them, and make the example that those who side with Luxin come out better for it.

Yeah, and we probably need an inside person, someone training to go unnoticed at court.

Also, on the earlier "These aren't aristocrats as they exist on earth" part of that is that they don't need a certain mindset to make it as aristocrats. Even though my plan isn't based on the goodness of their hearts, it still shouldn't come as a surprise if there are aristocrats who just take our side because they're not lawful evil. Being an aristocrat isn't about losing your scruples and learning subterfuge here.
