FreeWorlds Plot Committee

What is Plot?
Plot, run by members of the Plot Committee, is an effort to bring more role-playing events to the FreeWorlds server and to create a continuous storyline on the server, the outcome and evolution of which is created and affected by the players on the server. The Plot Committee will be responsible for setting up Plot Events, separate from Territorial Engagements, which may or may not be combat oriented. These Events also may or may not offer rewards for the winning faction - if there even is a winner to be had for these events.

The main drive of Plot is to create a rich role-playing environment with complex story arcs which the players on the server feel as though they are a part of and can affect the outcome of. Plot rewards may be as simple as credits and cargo or be more complex rewards like admin approved "maintenance-free" ships. Other rewards can be discussed and voted on. Our only limitations are what the game mechanics put on us.

An Example of a Plot Event
A broadband SOS is received by the factions. Somewhere in the Bespin system, a neutral courier ship has lost power - systems have shut down and they are out of control and flying at sublight speed. They are unable to pinpoint their location, but they are losing life support, and any moment they will lose communications. After a given amount of time the crew will be dead. They are offering a sizable credit reward to whomever can find them and escort them to Cloud City.

The credit reward could be directly traded with the winning faction member responsible for saving the courier, or applied directly to that member's faction's maintenance costs.
