Episode 2 Chapter Five: Objectives Joint Post

This is a wiki page dedicated to the Joint-Post writing of Chapter Five in Episode 02: Cosmic Imperative.

Writers will find the objective(s) they've opted to describe/document achieving on this page and will have until a set date to write In-Character segments. This set up will serve to increase the pace and alacrity at which this epic multi-vector episode is depicted.

Rules:

• The order of the slots has been inputted according to the Cosmic Imperative calendar of events.
• The chapter GM will "fluff" and weave the individual posts once all the objectives have been depicted.
• Write as much as you like and use as many NPC's as you like. Just remember that if you choose to kill off an NPC, the same rules apply here as in regular threads: get permission from GM first and, after the fact, update that NPC's wiki page to show the deceased.
• Once all the objectives have been written, the GM will alert chapter writers and they will then have the opportunity to look back through the objectives they did NOT write to and add in In-characters thoughts/responses to that objective if they feel so inspired
• Continual corrections and edits are encouraged to allow for a better flow.

Any continuity errors and discrepancies will be sorted out after the ending date and before the JP is posted in Chapter One, Episode 02. The GM will handle any latent formatting issues and conversion from wiki markup to forum BBC code before posting.

Find and Expose Tal'Aura's True Nature

Now that our characters have escaped from the Citadel (the epic story prompt thread we decided to do together), this objective should showcase the survivors finding Tal'Aura and getting her exposed to our cannon scanner to see if she is Infested (she is). From there, detail the fall-out of this information, citing connections to the other story prompt threads if/where applicable, as character fall-back to the Allegiant.

Escape Romulus

With all the coming and going on the planet, it is inevitable that their presence is known and their escape will be dicey, to put it lightly. Detail the escape and remember: creative build-up of in-game canon is always encouraged and welcomed, and if you have questions or ideas you'd like to run by the GM, reach out via PM/DM.

Travel back to Helmet dealing with unfriendlies

There is no feasible way that our characters are going to escape the planet without some unfriendlies on their tails. These unfriendlies can come from nearby patrols and/or even from Romulus. They can be whatever class fighters/ships you'd like, and as with all the objectives, wreck and maim and kill as you see fit. Just give a heads-up to the GM and update the wiki pages accordingly.

Arrive at Triangle in time for epic battle

After a harrowing journey with unfriendlies on tail, this objective can be perfect for recapping all the losses, personal or professional, as well as all the gains made in the duration of the chapter. Details on damages, injuries, fallen comrades, as well as new hopes/fears, are also good for this objective. Approach it as you like, just end the objective with the chapter characters arriving at the Triangle and alerting those on the Helmet of their arrival.
