Traitor Storyline

[Aurelias Kazaar]

Adding some more stuff:


I was trying to figure out how many members of 'the Toxic Six' actually know who the other is. If they want plausible deniability, some of them aren't going to know the others (like the lower level Cavalier members wouldn't know who the higher ups are). I was halfway tempted to have some of them be recruited by someone called Stephen Kametta but that might be making it too complicated.

I just kinda like the idea of E/K/M and TBM going 'off the reservation' (but not rogue) to track down Kametta.

Also a possible updated timeline on this:

2) Man Overboard

3) Raid On Communications Platform

4) Attempt on Razien

5) Repin and Kazaar meet

6) Interview with Starborn/Interrogation and Death of a Cavalier member/TBM declared the traitor

7) Jailbreak E/K/M-style.


8) Hunting the rest of the Six/Learning of second attempt on Razien

9) Final Pieces Put together

10) Final Attempt on Razien

This is just off the top of my head. Maybe I'm being too rigid on this. It doesn't have to be ten (that could be too long) but I wasn't expecting long 'chapters'.

6) Mili is questioned by Jane Starborn on her involvement with Byl Laprovik. Lessard reveals who she thinks the traitor is, while E/K go through their own data on the traitor. (Tenatively entitled "Deep Breath")

Can I hang out with you guys more? Gracey doesn't want me to help with Dasq.

I said I was going to have you guys help. I just don't want your mother pissed at me

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I know that now

[Aurelias Kazaar]

One thing I'm considering, but haven't decided, is will there be a 'break' between TBM getting arrested and E/K/M breaking him out. The new boss coming in is gonna 'shake things up' a bit.

I'm halfway tempted to make it a 'Four Months Later' thing or something like that.

Of course the problem with that is then people have to adapt their timelines to mine and it'd be just as easy to have ti all happen in a manner of weeks than months.

[Dasquian Belargic]

If it could happen in a matter of weeks, have it happen that way - only the timelines are getting shifted about enough as it is, and there is so much that is all linked together right now.. that it's getting really confusing

[Aurelias Kazaar]

That's hardly my fault. I've been planning this for almost a year

That's why I brought up doing the 'Four Months Later' dealie.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

That's part of the problem - long planning, long execution... other smaller arcs or threads get started and completed in the meantime which throws off the timeline. Not that its terrible or anything, its just a fact.

[Aurelias Kazaar]

Well this would have been done a year ago but something about two cross country moves in six months

[Dasquian Belargic]

All I'm saying is, Darkest Days is linked into and referenced in a whole lot of other threads right now. It would be a lot of upheaval to change all of them.

But this is the problem, like you say, of threads taking a long time to complete. Unavoidable, but no less problematic for it.

[Aurelias Kazaar]

Well 'Toxicity''s "problem" (even though it wasn't really one) was it took a while to be put together. None of the threads have taken a long time to complete, just one of those situations where the ball took a little bit to get started rolling.

[Estelle Russard]

Right now, where is the current conflict? Im unaware of any clash in timelines/story arcs, only that ALOT is going on at the same time.

[Aurelias Kazaar]

I don't think there is one just that a lot is going on.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Yep, it's just a busy time to be a Rebel.

[Estelle Russard]

o-kay

Lots going on is a problem to have

Until it starts getting muddled, we should leave the timeline as is imo.

It just means everyone cant be a part of everything thats going down, thats all.
