PLOT SUGGESTIONS

If you have a plot, or even just an idea for a plot to suggest to the mods, please feel free to drop it here. You don't have to plan on hosting that plot yourself; if it's something you'd be interested in seeing in Ryslig, it could give us a good idea for a mod-run event in the future. We welcome all your creative thoughts, to help us continue to give the game playful angles!

If you'd like to run a player plot of your own, please don't worry too much about any lore leading up to it. You can just detail the effects of the event to us. From there on, we can work backwards to ensure there's a suitable inciting incident.

You may use a sock account if you wish to remain anonymous. The reason that we ask you to provide a sock is so we can contact you about your plot in private if necessary. This is to maintain a sense of suspense while keeping things unscreened.

I have a tentative and unfinished idea for a long-term buildup to a future plot, and I want to toss it in here in rough sketch form because I think...well, first of all, I want to check the feasibility of the premise before filling in the sketchy parts, and second, I think the sketchy parts would be better filled in collaboratively than just from my own fevered imagination.

So, concept:
- A character (innocent whistling) somehow happens upon some form of...baby Entity. Similar to the Backrooms Beast in vibe, if not specific powers.
- The character takes it upon themselves to try to raise the Entity to be friendly.
- lmao
- The specifics of...what the Entity is and how it works are ????, but ideally it wouldn't be, like, a pet NPC or anything, that would be a hassle. Maybe it's dormant in some kind of cocoon and the "raising" of it is like...visiting it and feeding it...whatever abstract thing it eats. It just exudes incredible baby vibes. idk
- SOME TIME LATER, it hatches/ecloses/evolves/whatever and causes a Situation. This would be the plot proper. What's currently floating around in my head is something in the vein of dreamsharing/walking, with some Nightmare on Elm Street kind of horror possibilities mixed in. I'm keeping this sketchy because the nature of the Entity is also sketchy and that's where I'd want mod input to make sure the setting is being respected and etc.
- Crucially, I'm only interested in facilitating a plot like this if the takeaway is not "and then it turned out malicious and you never should have done this stop trying to do anything". I'd be aiming for something more like the parasites, where raising it friendly kiiiiindasorta worked but it doesn't...know what it's doing to people, exactly, on account of being an Entity. It does some fun stuff. It does some really fucked up stuff. It's just a little guy and it's his birthday. C'maaaaaaan
- And after that point it wanders off Somewhere Out There, a free-ranging plot device. Also in the vein of the parasites and Backrooms Beast.
