I have thought of an alternate to the justice hall. Let me know if you'd prefer justice hall or Priscilla's Crazy Alternative.

After a chat with Gia, I'm going to simplify things by going with Priscilla's (literally) crazy alternative.

I need to apologise.
I am going to need to pull Krevster out.
I have been procrastinating - spending days on the computer and not doing anything else. So I wont be able to keep up with a 2nd thread. In short, I've been finding reasons to avoid getting on with real-world matters that need dealing with, and I've no excuse for laziness.
So I will be removing Krevster. I don't mind him dying by the way. I will still be playing Karsimir but at a slower pace. Moderator stuff may slow down, but may actually speed up if I break the procrastination habit.
My apologies for this, and for leaving the issue so long. So how best to facilitate this?

Hmm... Well...
Say something that would make Priscilla angry, and I'm sure she would find a way to punish him...
I'm not so keen on him getting killed (that's rather permanent..), but perhaps Priscilla could sap some energy from him and lock him in her basement for awhile?
Edit: The idea got brighter right after I posted it. Priscilla could lock him in the basement after weakening him and then hold him hostage to force Gia to go on errands.

Very neat idea Daq, but unfortunately it would involve a fairly large asspull. Priscilla's profile states she's very vulnerable to attack, so her having a handy way to overpower Krevster would directly contradict what she's able to do. I don't mind her gaining new spells for these kind of things (updating new powers) but it would be irresponsible for me as a mod to go with that idea.
What I'm thinking is maybe that Krev hears the Crazy Option, he's going to need to go to plan all this anyway. And can meet Anga in the temple (maybe she's been looking for him... they've been in contact before) and she can give Krevster his Stage 1 Demonsworn Pact, which will lead to Krevster sent off into the woods, maybe to find Mavarion.
Earlier on we discussed Gia gaining the ability to create more werewolves. A pact with Fenris would be a simple way for Gia to gain that power, and Krev could assign her to 'recruitment' while he is alone learning from Mav. Maybe Priscilla finds something to offer Gia...

Also a good idea, but Gia doesn't like Priscilla. She won't stay with someone that she doesn't like... but the idea of her getting an infectious bite was one I liked.
First, though, Gia's going to go through a period of depression, like she did when Mavarion went away and she couldn't find him. Whether or not Krevster leaves her with a task, she'll be open to more influence than is healthy for her. So, if someone wants a pet werewolf, stepping into the leader gap for her is a good way of getting said pet werewolf. They probably wouldn't get the level of devotion she had for Krevster, but Krev didn't get the same amount of devotion that Mavarion got.
Just throwing that out there...

Hm. It would be rocky convincing Gia to stay with the way things have been set up, even with the promise of the Fenris pact. Priscilla isn't the kind of person to offer something, so it'd have to be holding something over Gia's head.
I agree with you on the stretchiness of my first idea. I was planning on having Priscilla activate some sort of latent spell or trap (she is, after all, in her own home), but Krevster kinda flouted it the first time, so I don't think that would look very good.
But I have two other ideas,
One being that I haven't really made mention of what was in Zapar's note. While I was intending it to be just notes on what transpired, it could be a 'plan of attack.'
Zapar could reemerge to seduce Gia and convince her to attack Krevster, and then when the moment is right, Priscilla could land that spell to cripple him. With Zapar gone, Gia would return to her senses, and then Priscilla could dangle Krevster's life over her head (with the added compulsion of Gia now feeling guilty about it).
Two: the entire 'crazy alternative' could be a trap, and when they get to the Asylum, bad things happen to Krevster that incapacitate him. But the question is how quickly that would end up in Krevster being written out.
Of course, the final alternative would be to dissolve the plot entirely. Just have Gia or Krev (or both) get cold feet and leave.

Any particular decision on this one?

Another option is that Krevster can simply go crazy with the Whispers in his head... We can just have Krev & Gia leave, then plan to seperate briefly, and next thing we all know Krev is a gibbering loon inside the asylum.

Anga is going to be sending the Demon Spawn crew after her warrior, Krev. I figure eventually they'll come to meet Priscilla while tracking the boy down.
Just FYI my lambs

So if you still want to pursue the idea, I've thought of a really neat way to have the whispers amp up and drive Krev temporarily insane and have it tie in with all of the stuff we've set up so far.

I hate to say it, but I'm gonna have to pull Gia out of the board entirely, at least for a few months. As y'all are probably aware, I'm going on exchange to Russia and the first few months (if not the entire thing) are going to be crazy for me.
The werewolf ain't going away, she's just going on a vacation or something for a while. I don't know how long she'll be gone, but she will return. You can't get rid of her that easily.
Short and sweet... but yeah. It's all I've got to say.

Daq, go ahead and PM your idea to Rail. If he agrees it would be best to get'er done ASAP.

I like your idea, and I think it's very good, but with Gia pulling out with me we can simply turn and march away. Krevster will simply smile and nod and walk out, and take his time about that quest.
