He isn't as he was meditating on how no one seems to like him helping to keep them safe.

In theory or in practice?

Kayla kisses Rachel the cheek.
"My safe word is teacup."
Isn't Kayla supposed to be celibate and asexual?

PM plots and relevant lore to @Elf. Get added to the plot roster. Run the plot when the time comes. Try not to piss off half the playerbase.

Oh and try not to end up in a definition debate seeing as that somehow happens occasionally. Also, remember to present any factors that would allow enemies to figure out more information on the party seeing as some characters have undisclosed information that the right factors would allow the enemy to know. You don't exactly want to get the plot resolved by someone revealing a hitherto unknown trait or ability that the antagonist should already be aware of.

Yeah, if half the playerbase regards it with apathy don't worry, you'd still be doing relatively well.

In theory. In practice, it's often more like:

"Hey, guys, it's been a while since there's been a plot."
*chatter chatter*
"Hey guys? Plot?"
*chatter*
"I'm running a plot now!"
*plot*
Crap, I didn't think they'd do this...

Plots I remember thus far:
-Selina getting enchanted: revolved via a combination of a crossover, a fade to black and overall forgetfulness of the players.
-Crossover: stole characters from another RP, resolved.
-Sen's Unealing: Went rather well, eeing as there wasn't any criticism.
-Anima's Disappearance: criticized but went relatively well.
-Grandiose: went relatively well; some criticism; resolved due to realism being involved.
-Void Angels: some criticism; resolved via legal shenanigans.
-Bombing: antagonist escaped without a trace, half the players didn't care about the plot, but no arguments happened.
-Angels or Creation: massive OOC shitstom about spell definitions, roll systems, action interpretation, antagonist balancing and lore contradictions; terminated early.
-Arthurian Realm: went off without a hitch aside from the slight debate over the realm being inaccessible.
-Dragons: ongoing; tangential criticism, communication issues, underestimation of a PC's degree of apathy, was on the waitlist for too long, going relatively well so far.

That was a plot? I thought it was a character introduction.
