Do you want to know a secret? Do you promise not to tell?

Secrets, secrets are no fun...

Hi there, players. We have an upcoming plot for anyone interested in participating. Please, please PLEASE read the entire post before commenting! And keep in mind that this is entirely optional.

We're looking for secrets. Secrets that your character has been hiding. They can be major, earth-shattering secrets (If you're playing Clark Kent, your secret could be "I'm Superman") or small secrets that are hidden for the sake of comfort or embarrassment (Clark's smaller secret might be "I was adopted" or "I wear Batman underpants"). It's up to you, what kind of secret you'd like to share with us, but here is the catch: If you give us a secret, it will be exposed. That's right. A lot of secrets are about to get exposed. So please consider very carefully what/if you contribute.

Here are the rules for submitting a secret:

1. Please only submit one secret. It can be from your backstory or something that's happened since arriving in Niflheim.
2. Please only choose one of your characters to submit for. This might be a good opportunity for characters with limited CR to get involved in things, but any character you want will suffice!
3. Again, please remember that any secret you give us will be revealed to the entire PC base at large. Do not share something with us that you don't want exposed. On the other hand, if you have some secret that you've been dying to have exposed, but haven't been able to find a way to expose, here's your opportunity.

The rules are fairly simple. Take some time to consider whose secret you want revealed. Also, again, keep in mind that this is entirely OPTIONAL.

The deadline for submitting secrets is Thursday, July 11. That is a hard deadline. Sorry folks. Once the deadline has passed, a plot point in which these secrets are revealed will appear, so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the fallout. Obviously, even if you don't submit anything, you can still participate! Or not! The choice is yours!

And yes, this plot point was motivated by PC actions. We won't say who caused this one. That's the mods' secret.

Oh man, this is easy! I'd like it exposed that Christine has a big, ugly scar on her neck that she hides. Depending on how far you want to take it, it can be revealed how she got that scar, though it's violent in nature so I guess the question is if you mods want possibly triggering subjects for these secrets?

Sounds good to me! For the hints, I guess it would be monster, claws, attacked, killed?

I know you said the secret could be anything from big to small. I'd prefer the bigger one, but the smaller could be hilarious too. I'll let you guys decide if you need more hilarious, wtf secrets or not.

Big: Mary works for the Witness Protection Program and spends her days relocating and protecting federal witnesses that some really bad people want dead. (She can't even tell her family this is actually what she does.)

Small: Mary has been married! It lasted 36 hours.

I have two secrets for Reinette and I will let the mods decide which they like better, since one is a bit nsfw.

1. Reinette was afflicted (historically) with a discharge that made it extremely painful for her to have sex. The King spurned her and once remarked that she was a cold fish (a play on her last name "Poisson.") It was a large secret that was exposed once, costing the person their position and a banishment.

2. The second secret is that Reinette received death threats at Versailles. A note was pinned to her fireplace, detailing what the person would do to her. Another was someone had a fish's skeleton sent to her rooms. And the people of Paris attacked her.

The secret for Dorian isn't too huge but I'm not quite ready for everyone to know what he is with such limited CR. So his secert is that he is terrified of large bodies of water because he nearly drowned in a creek when he was 10.

You know what, let's do it.

Elena Gilbert is a Petrova doppelganger. Depending on how detailed you want/need them to be I can add more, but we can start there.

Vector is so in on this!!

The major world shattering secret would be that he willingly participated in racial genocide. Detailed here in his app (in the history section). Vector isn't really trying to hide this - it's something that just hasn't come up or had need to. He'd be more upset or worried depending on the reactions of his friends.

Smaller secrets include things like his feelings for Ming (which honestly isn't a big secret lol), he doesn't know how to swim, he still has psychosomatic pain in the location where he was killed (which can effect his ability to rest), and trying to eat solid food still squicks the hell out of him (though that isn't really a secret to those that know him), among other minor things. Also being in biological reality alone without his unit like this frightens him.

The worldshattering secret is probably the best one lol!! It's something that people won't see coming by those who met him and/or are friends!

Obi-Wan's secret is that he has... Inappropriately stongly affectionate feelings for another Jedi named Siri Tachi. Anakin pretty much knows about it, but basically Obi-Wan and Siri decided not to act on their feelings because a relationship would have got them kicked out of the Jedi Order. So he doesn't talk about it.

Rush gets a secret! Well, one of many.

He's directly responsible for the death of the only woman he's ever loved besides his wife.

There were so many to choose from...

But! Anakin's secret for this plot is the Tusken Raider slaughter. After the tribe of Sand People murdered his mother, he lost his shit, gave into the Dark Side, and killed everyone in the camp (man, woman, and child) where his mother had been held and tortured the previous month.

All right. Spock's secret is that around 10-years-old he was betrothed to another Vulcan girl. He's never told Uhura, nor anyone on the Enterprise, as those types of things are pretty private Vulcan culture things.

Thought of something waaay better. Spock's secret is that he can't get drunk off alcohol, so he can out drink anyone. HOWEVER. He gets drunk off of chocolate.

Aileen's secret is that she is fiercely jealous that Bert has been able to find happiness, that she can't manage to be as content as he is. This is especially the case when it comes to his relationship with Cordelia. There is also leftover bitterness that he was given guns while she was taunted on the sidelines, and that he gets to be Roland's right hand man.

Sarah's secret is...

She's terrified of clowns thanks to a doll her aunt, who raised her, left in her room and she swore it moved during thunderstorms.

Kurt has a guilty pleasure! He owns and enjoys a boyfriend pillow. He named his Bruce and likes it because it's not 'judgmental'.

Have fun!

Rose's secret is that she was once engaged! It's not something she actively keeps secret but she definitely never mentioned it to the Doctor :3

Jane has a massive fear of being trapped in confined spaces and unable to escape.

She also has a huge fear of losing people and they're both caused by the same source.

So in the interest of wanting more CR for Devi, her secret is that she's only ever gotten laid once.. and that was when she was 24.

Creature may be new, but he's gathered a relative boatload of CR for me to mess with in his short time here, so here goes:

He burned down the house of his friend De Lacey while the man, his son, and the son's pregnant wife were all inside.

Cordy's secret is that she is attracted to Spike!

Embarrassing for obvious reasons.

(Spike's hair being the most obvious of these reasons)

[personal profile] ziver 2013-07-10 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Ziva's biggest secret in her life (and it's one that comes from her canon) is that she was actually the one who assassinated her half brother when it was discovered that he was a double agent and his true allegiance was to a terrorist organization.

Pasha's secret is that is was her fault that Amanda Greyson died, because of her own pride and assumption that she knew better than everyone else. She still has nightmares about not being able to save her.

Glinda's secret is that she knows that the Wizard is a fraud but she's willing to keep her silence in order to keep her position as the Good Witch.

Gaila's secret is that she had her heart broken when she was a girl and refuses to devote herself to one person because that way she won't get hurt so badly again.

Whoops. Who's a dumbdumb? Claire's a dumbdumb.

I'll go with Gaila. She hasn't had enough trauma.
