Tips: 0.00 INK

So an idea came to me while I was working on character relations, and noticed just how much of a variety we had regarding where our characters stand on the new world order. For some, it’s very obvious where they stand, and their position is unlikely to change, but there are also a number of characters who are either on the fence, or have not yet been put in the position where they need to choose a side. Eventually, after the ball, quodpot drama, and character development conflict, something probably needs to happen to create a situation with higher stakes conflict that forces our characters to draw a line in the sand (or at least begin to question or think about their stance).
Currently, whatever their position, our characters are protected at Remington, which enjoys the privileges of a more liberal environment due to the Dark Lord’s strict grip on power being looser, and a slightly more open political environment in the Americas. Nothing however, gets a tyrannical government to tighten that grip on power more than the fear of losing it. If there were perhaps events in the background involving terrorist attacks or a failed coup being staged by either Maleficarum or the Covenant, that could create a chain of event that increases tensions at Remington, and forces characters to start picking sides.
Such events could lead to multiple possibilities, including investigations of Remington from the MBI due to suspicion of organizational recruiting taking place at the school, or even a Deatheater raid on the school aided by students completing their initiation into their ranks. Those are both long term plot ideas though, and would need to build over time. That’s just a thought though, so feel free to add on, shoot it down, ect. :)
