Oh dear, sorry about that! The ping for your link-correction reply never showed up in our inbox.

When Knock Out reawakens after his absence, he will remember said time and events occurring back home, despite his death here.

It's alright :3

Thank you a lot!!!!

YOUR NAME; Breezy
YOUR CHARACTER; Leonard McCoy
SUMMARY; Leonard arrived in-game during the ending of Star Trek XI. His canon will be updated to the events of Star Trek: Into Darkness. He would be returning back to Cybertron, once more, at the end of the movie. Specifically, when the crew are on board to start their five year mission in space. When McCoy returns, he might be a little more edgy, little more bitter. His best friend did die (but came back so yay!) in the movie, and then he's suddenly sucked back into this alien world, remembers his time here, yeah... He's kind of bitter that he's basically lost his friend again, though in a different way. Not only him, but everyone else he cares for and loves. Generally, though, McCoy will continue being a gruffy grump with a heart of gold.
WHEN?; It's up to the mods, but I was hoping starting the 28th into early December during my hiatus, since tags will be (no surprise) scarce, and this would explain why he's suddenly gone very quiet.
ANYTHING ELSE;

McCoy may have noticed he's been feeling tired lately. Some conversations seem distant, and it's been harder to get up in the mornings. The worst part is, it doesn't seem to be getting any better.

In fact, it's getting worse.

A lot worse.

He might be having a conversation or going about his daily business, but at some point McCoy will feel an intense pull from something. It compels him to sleep, right then and there, regardless of what he was in the middle of.

When finally he does succumb to the pull, an Acolyte of Solus Prime will find him and return him to the temple's summit: to an empty, seemingly unused room, exactly mirroring the rooms new arrivals find themselves in. There, he will remain unconscious for four days, before eventually awakening with new knowledge, changed by the Lambda.

YOUR NAME; mmejack
YOUR CHARACTER; Starscream (tfp)
SUMMARY;
So Starscream has been out for a while under this canon-update coma: http://re-alignedmods.dreamwidth.org/3281.html?thread=509393#cmt509393 and has not in fact woken up yet. May I change his update point to the end of the film instead?

Given the length of time between now and that last update-request, and the scope of the change, we would like a full update request form filled out before approving.

Please submit a update summary and we will get back to you ASAP!

Perfectly fair!

YOUR NAME; MmeJack
YOUR CHARACTER; Starscream (tfp)
SUMMARY; Updating Pscream to the end of his canon: the end of the TFP film (right as things fade to black as the Predacons surround him on the throne). There are no upgrades. As for personality changes, that's largely to be determined by how the game treats him -- since Starscream has always been mercurial and unpredictable (largely because he's unstable). Physical events that might affect him though, are:
- The fact that the person he cares about most doesn't give two dimes for him
- The Decepticons are officially disbanded by the boss himself --> leading to Starscream having no existing affiliation or rank
- Turns out gods are real and death might not be permanent either
- He's betrayed last-minute by the person he thought he could trust most
- The Predacons have a taste for revenge
So really: Pscream has been stripped of everything imaginable, now believes in deities, and can't even lie to himself and pretend he's got any (living) comrades. All in all... it's arguable that he hasn't had worse and just faked it, til he could make it.

WHEN?; As soon as the current event has largely wound down.

ANYTHING ELSE; I just now realised that there could be possible implications for the following: It's canon Starscream will never be able to join the whole "all-are-one"-Robot-Heaven upon death because his spark's been polluted with Dark Energon (albeit to a much lesser extent then Megatron -- since the Dark E had a diminished effect with Starscream's minimal usual). Starscrean doesn't know this, but at death, he's damned to robot hell at the worst, and at best: forced to exist in the limbo-like-state of empty robot-hell (Unless Unicron comes back or his old boss dies first).

Mods willing, this could possibly be interesting for a little First Forged interaction. This would also be the only feasibly way Pscream could ever learn about this. I wouldn't mind it coming up in conversation-- so y'all have info-modding permission going forward!

Approved! When Starscream wakes up, he is free to remember everything up through the end of the movie!

YOUR NAME; Ty O
YOUR CHARACTER; Prowl
SUMMARY; Prowl will be updated to the end of RID Issue #16, where the Autobots have been exiled from New Iacon.
- Personality changes: After this point, he'd experienced Bombshell's mind control & forced combination with the Constructicons. As a result, he's set up to begin to drift away from his old, more manipulative methods. It's not an immediate drastic change, but after being rescued by his fellow Autobots, he seemed to regain a little of the idealist that he was before the war. JUST A LITTLE, THOUGH. He's still 95% a grumpy asshole.

Prowl's going to be super upset to be brought back to this Cybertron neck deep in his own schemes. HUR.

- Physical changes: He was modified with Decepticon Combiner technology and has taken on a bit more bulk to accommodate. He can shift between a car and the head and shoulders of Devastator. The new tech is modular, so it can be fit on more than one combiner.
WHEN?; I'll be aiming for about 1-2 weeks from now.
ANYTHING ELSE; He'll be coming in injured from the whole Devastator ordeal but I imagine he'll be repaired when he's brought back.

YOUR NAME; Ty O
PLOT SUMMARY; Shockwave creates a Predacon shell for Four from the bone given to him in the August drop. For Science. B)
INVOLVED CHARACTERS; Shockwave, Four
ESTIMATED TIMESPAN; Not long. A few weeks, maybe?
ANYTHING ELSE; Not that I know of?

Edited 2013-12-16 18:56 (UTC)

When finally he does succumb to the pull, an Acolyte of Liege Maximo will find him and return him to the temple's summit: to an empty, seemingly unused room, exactly mirroring the rooms new arrivals find themselves in. There, he will remain unconscious for four days, before eventually awakening with new knowledge and physical modifications, changed by the Lambda.

Provided that the shell stays within reasonable strength and power levels, your plot is approved!

If you end up with any further questions regarding the limitations of the plot, please let us know.

YOUR NAME; Breezy
YOUR CHARACTER; Ambulon
SUMMARY; Up to the moment of his death in MTMTE #19. When he wakes, his body will still be in one piece and there's no serious damage, but he will be suffering from a horrible migraine and phantom pains throughout his frame, if that is okay!
WHEN?; Whenever possible is good~
ANYTHING ELSE; boogers

YOUR NAME; Katt
YOUR CHARACTER; Bulkhead
SUMMARY;

Timeline wise: I would like to update him to The end of the series. To the end of the movie 'Predacons Rising', and after Optimus' becoming one with the All-Spark(quite literally).

Personality wise: He doesn't change too much in terms of personality. He's basically become more or less how he is in R/A now. Going back in construction, learning to work with Vehicons, and being put in charge of the reconstruction effort. And basically fighting when he needs to.

Also, lol. New tales of how they took out Unicron.

WHEN?; Whenever the mods approve it would be good. ^^

ANYTHING ELSE; Bearhugs for the mods!

Yay! Thank you hon! \o/

YOUR NAME: Zoan
YOUR CHARACTER: Blackarachnia
SUMMARY:
Updating up to Season 3, after the Episode Crossing the Rubicon.

Because of this update, a few things are going to change for Blackarachnia. The most noticeable is that she is getting a total body upgrade to a Transmetal 2 form. Which is shiny, more colorful and a lot tougher than her current form. The Transmetal 2 bodies have been shown to take an awful lot of punishment and also the capability of healing any damage automatically. And apparently this means BA now has telekinesis. [I wish I was making that part up.]

As for her personality, a few things do change. For one, she's not as hostile as before. Why? Well, BA's now a Maximal. The Predacon shell programming has been severed from her core consciousness, allowing her to be the Maximal she was actually supposed to be. ….But don't worry, she still has the intelligence, skills and ability to kick ass. [Even if it did nearly kill her]

She's just calmer [But still has some of the attitude] and still very science minded. Maybe even a little more so now that it isn't completely focused on her survival but helping the others as well. In a way, she's more relaxed and not constantly trying to prove something.

Also, she's… pretty much married to Silverbolt at this point.

Soo, essentially she'll be a little less confrontational and calmer for the most part, shiny and missing Silverbolt more than she already is. Otherwise, it's business as usual. [With maybe a little less experimentation without permission. Maybe. That depends on the bots in question.]

WHEN?:

Whenever mods approve of this?

ANYTHING ELSE:

Sit back and watch the fireworks? I feel sorry for whoever ends up watching her body. Considering she'll be in a coma, will appear to die and then become a shiny new thing.

When finally she does succumb to the pull, an Acolyte of Liege Maximo will find her and return her to the temple's summit: to an empty, seemingly unused room, exactly mirroring the rooms new arrivals find themselves in.

Plot
YOUR NAME; Jayde
PLOT SUMMARY; In one sentence: the Zone comes to Cybertron! In more than one sentence: Strelok is being slated for a canon update. One week after Strelok wakes up from that, mutants from the Zone will start to show up in the Haven. They’ll be ugly but mostly harmless at first… until the really nasty stuff starts to show up. Once Strelok realizes the mutants are coming from somewhere, he will try to organize a party to find where the mutants are coming from and fix it before the Zone over-runs the planet.
INVOLVED CHARACTERS; Strelok and anyone that wants to get involved
ESTIMATED TIMESPAN; 2 weeks maximum – the first week for mutant incursions into the Haven, the second for the trip into the Zone to fix the damage before it’s too late. Beyond that, it can be placed whenever the mods would like, preferably within the April/May/June range
ANYTHING ELSE; This event can potentially end with new sources of food for organic refugees, as at least two of the mutant species slated to appear and possibly remain are edible. And besides, who doesn’t like extremely dangerous treasure hunts that end in saving the world?

Canon Update
YOUR NAME; Jayde
YOUR CHARACTER; Strelok
SUMMARY; Strelok will be updating to the end of Call of Pripyat and thus (essentially) the end of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series. In terms of the games all good endings are being used.

After destroying C-Consciousness and escaping to a place just outside the Zone, Strelok returned to the Zone with some help from his old friend Guide. Specifically, he went back to Pripyat, where Guide had led a stranded military squad. He had information to deliver to them about the Zone, specifically information that could potentially be used to control or destroy the Zone entirely. Of course, he might have had an easier time talking to them if he hadn’t snuck into their base. Rude. He gave the military some extra information too (that ANY stalker probably could have told them): that their super-secret military mission failed because anomalies move around after blowouts. They waited out another blowout before calling in a helicopter rescue so Strelok could pass on the information he had to the military.

But there was a problem. Of course. There’s always a problem in the Zone! They had to fight their way through Monolith forces and zombies to get to their rescue. It was all very thrilling. Luckily they did manage to make their rendezvous with Strelok alive and whole. And a military stalker managed to get him a few old notes that he and his group left for each other before everything went to hell for them. He took up the Chief Scientific Consultant position for a new group: the Scientific Institute for Research of the Chernobyl Anomalous Area.

As far as how this information will affect him, Strelok will know that the elimination of C-Con didn’t do what he’d hoped. The Zone got out of their control and killing them didn’t fix it… and he knows that he can’t fix everything alone. He still won’t give straight answers about what he saw in Reactor 4 – or didn’t, because he’s not sure if he even believes it anymore. Teleporting around the Chernobyl reactor fighting people will do that, apparently. More the point, the notes he received gave him some amount of comfort. He never got to see his friends alive again after their first trip into the CNPP, but the notes gave him a reason to live and fight on, so that their deaths weren’t in vain. He was finally able to put Ghost and Fang to rest. He’s a little more world-weary – and still a little wary of scientists and the military – but he’s more willing to work with others to solve a problem.

He will be bringing a few things back with him/finding them in the Junk Pile after waking up (however you are comfortable with me doing it); the SEVA Suit he wore for the final confrontation in Pripyat, and his specialized SGI-5k (without ammo, good job stalker), as well as three notes left by him, Ghost, and Fang.

Also, he has one nice big new scar on his head, earned from heavens only know where.
WHEN?; Approximately one week before the Zone plot; ASAP if the plot is declined
ANYTHING ELSE; GET OUT OF HERE, STALKER

Strelok may have noticed he's been feeling tired lately. Some conversations seem distant, and it's been harder to get up in the mornings. The worst part is, it doesn't seem to be getting any better.

In fact, it's getting worse.

A lot worse.

He might be having a conversation or going about his daily business, but at some point Strelok will feel an intense pull from something. It compels him to sleep, right then and there, regardless of what he was in the middle of.

Your plot is go!

You will want to write up a small summary to post to the OOC community to explain what will be happening and what dates you'd like to run the event. Given that we are in an event right now, it is suggested that those dates fall afterward (IE probably not in March but the entire month of April is open.)

After that you're good! If you need help with the event, just let us know.

YOUR NAME; Susan/Tanks
YOUR CHARACTER; Axel
SUMMARY; Axel will be going through with the rest of his 'death' then his eventual waking up again as Lea, once again fully human and in possession of his heart. After regaining his bearings, then thoroughly exploring the castle in Radiant Garden for evidence of where Isa and Braig might have ended up and having no luck, he heads off world to search for evidence of the whereabouts of both them and his other friends.

He'll be meeting up with King Mickey in a typically dramatic fashion, appearing out of a Dark Corridor and tossing his chakrams in front of the King, just in time to block a blast from Malificent. After Malificent departs, King Micky comments that he didn't expect Axel to rescue them, whereupon Axel announces that he's no longer Axel; he's Lea. Together with Mickey and co, he heads back to Master Yen Sid's tower and shocks everyone by announcing that he wants to learn to wield a Keyblade. Though somewhat doubtful of his chances of actually being able to do it, Yen Sid agrees to let him try, knowing that they'll need every advantage they can get against Master Xehanort. Lea then heads off to a more "temporally flexible location" to train with Merlin and the three good faeries in hopes of learning to wield a Keyblade.

He finishes his training just in time to crash Master Xehanort's gathering of the true Organization XIII and save Sora from becoming Master Xehanort's thirteenth vessel, reitterating his promise to always be there to bring his friends back. Master Xehanort and his Organization retreat for the moment, and Lea returns with the other good guys to Yen Sid's tower. There, he stands watch while Riku dives into Sora's heart to wake him from his magically induced sleep.

Once both Sora and Riku are awake again, and Riku is named the new Keyblade Master, Lea comments that he'll 'catch up to them in no time' and reveal that he can indeed weild a Keyblade now, much to everyone's shock. He had planned to come busting in with it to rescue Sora, but couldn't get it to materialize, commenting that it must be in the snap of the wrist... and summoning his Keyblade almost by accident. Then, after things settle down a bit and our heroes settle in for some regrouping and planning, lea heads off to see how things are going in Radiant Garden... which his when he'll be brought back to re;al, catching him up with Sora and the most recent canon.

Main changes when Axel returns is that he'll be Lea again, fully human and with his original heart. He still retains all of Axel's memories and abilities, though he loses his facial markings. He'll have basically as much understanding of the current state of things back home as Sora does (up to the end of Dream Drop Distance, in other words). He'll also be bringing his newly acquired Keyblade, though that will be somewhat unreliable at first. Lea is just a beginner with it, after all, and it will take time and practice for him to be able to use it for anything but its basic functions of fighting and unlocking things.

WHEN?; Sometime within the next few weeks, probably post activity check.

ANYTHING ELSE; I think that's it.

There, he will remain unconscious for five days, before eventually awakening with new knowledge, changed by the Lambda.
