We're back, baby! Plot Roundup December 2020
Welcome one and all, new players and old, to the rebirth of Plot Round-up!
We have completely revamped this from its original creation so even if you've been here a while Please Read The Post before replying. This will be the format of the Plot Round-up going forward. Please note any changes are not retroactive so do not fret if old submissions are no longer above board as it were. This is the ruleset we will be using from now on.
It’s been a while since we organized one of these, but it’s back to bring you a chance to kick back with more delicious spyreading! A lot has been happening for the characters of the Nexus both in and outside the main comm! Once again we’re inviting you to show your fellow players what your characters have been getting up to! Simply follow the format below and tag with a plot summary and links to the relevant prose and threads – then enjoy checking out the latest storylines! Just make sure to check out our handy FAQ below.
Since we haven't had one of these in a while for This Post anything that is important throughout 2020 will be considered appropriate for submission. Going forward we will be doing monthly plot roundups and at that time only new or ongoing threads will be considered appropriate to submit.
----------
Submit One Comment per character with a collection of links (in chronological order) to important threads they have been a part of as well as a summary of the plot involved. In the subject of the comment include your character's name.
Why do we do this? For spy-reading, of course! It helps everyone in the comm stay abreast of each other's plots, especially as the size of our comm grows. It's also a good way to make sure your hard work is admired by others.
What is relevant: Any prose, private storyline/plot pieces, monthly prompts, community threads, or solo pieces which took place on personal journals or which were reposted onto personal journals from chat apps, etc. The pieces must be considered canon for characters as they are played in the Nexus (ie: No links to memes which were just for fun, etc.) If important Nexus-Canon development has occurred in a meme post that thread MUST be linked here to be considered canon in game going forward, but submissions from other DW games are not allowed under any circumstance. All submitted links should be considered significant to your character's growth or a plot in some way.
For community posts you must link to the important threads you wish to submit. We want to encourage people to spy-read the best parts of your characters' lore and to do that we need to be able to point to where these happened. No one is going to read through a 500+ comment party post for one thread your character was in. Please keep this in mind! The only exception to this is if your character made a top-level Nexus post that has multiple important threads. Please feel free in that case to only link the post once, but the summary Must include which threads are must-reads and why!
How should I list my threads? Please utilize a title for each link to label each submission using the < a href... formatting. This will help cut down on the confusion of having just a list of raw links with no indication as to what each of them is for.
Finally:
Each thread should be submitted only once per player so if you have multiple muses involved in a single thread make mention to who else they impact on the first submission of a thread and then perhaps refer to that in the next character's summary!

Felix Caelus
Back at the start of the year, having previously tied the knot in Jim’s universe, Felix and
Felix’s familythe gods of Tamriel by getting married there too. It took months of preparation and adventures rounding up guests. This being a Cyrodillic wedding thrown by a reasonably well-off mage family, it involved a lot of ceremony, free food, and a dash or two of politics.I: Unfamiliar Ground The day before. The couple’s friends and family keep them out of trouble; Felix receives some paternal advice.
II : By the Eight and One Ceremony! So much
officially approvedceremony!III: A Feast for the Heart Party time! Jim’s crew and

The celebrations wrapped up with a reception in the Nexus to celebrate with friends old and new. Highlights for Felix include making up with Isidor Durant (
Return to Rielle
Felix screwed over quite a few people during his time being possessed by a pair of murderous necromantic Runeblades. Stealing rare tomes from the College of Whispers and leaving a friend of his to take the blame was one he didn’t even remember – not until he had an irate fellow mage demanding answers (and some help to fix it). Unfortunately, said tomes now reside in the one place he and his loved ones never wanted to return…
Personal Dilemmas An upset Felix seeks anonymous advice from the Nexus about his ethical dilemma and winds up confiding in Kav Norn (
Playing With Shadows I Reaching the conclusion that he can’t ask his family to suffer for him, Felix goes back to Rielle by himself and tries a conjurer’s solution to fix his mistake. Trouble is, it turns out PTSD and delicate new summoning spells mesh very, very poorly…
Playng With Shadows II A previous bargain pays off to help Felix escape, but he’s in bad shape by the time he makes it home to a horrified Jim. Later on the Enterprise, the captain later has some Things to say to his spouse.
Tune in next time for familial confessions, demonic tricks, daedric warriors and a whole lot of confronting past horrors!
The Other Half | Jim Kirk
Or at least, it would have done if Felix hadn't left unfinished business in Rielle. Taking place after the playing with shadows set Jim ventures back into the Nexus and runs into An Old acquaintance in Matt Murdock (
Finally, Jim's mother has reached out finally asking to reunite with her estranged son and his new husband. Old wounds are picked at until they're raw and the captain's still unsure how he's going to handle this.
