"Love Fool" Player Plot Sign Up Post
Hot on the heels of the other player plots for this month comes one more! From March 29th until April 4th, Diarmuid is going to become a very unhappy camper as his curse goes from activating rarely and for short bursts to almost constantly being active. For those who aren't familiar with Diarmuid's curse, during his first life a spirit of love, youth and beauty gave him what she considered a gift--a curse that makes any woman who sees his face fall in love with him. The mole under his right eye is the physical manifestation of that curse.
During the beginning of the event, Diarmuid will be out and about the tower doing his usual rounds, meeting with people etc. What he won't realize is that the curse has basically gone back to its usual strength--instead of being actively only rarely and randomly, it will be active most of the time and only rarely inactive. On top of that, for an unknown reason (April Fools anyone?) his curse will be affecting both men and woman instead of just women as usual.
As Diarmuid begins to realize what is going on, he will start isolating himself in his room to stop affecting other people. However, this will only backfire on him because while he will not be out affecting others, he will now be staying in one place so that everyone affected can easily find him and everyone else vying for his attention!
What does this mean for the characters in the tower? Anyone who signs up for the event and then tags Diarmuid's permissions post here (since being affected by the curse requires a permissions post tag), will be considered to have been affected by Diarmuid's curse. How strongly they react and how long they are affected for is up to the character's mun. So far, most characters affected have been so for a week or two at the most. It has also been shown that those who have a strong will and/or know that they are affected by the curse have a much easier time resisting it and recover much more quickly than those who don't know or actually want to feel love for him.
So, feel free to have your character react however strongly you wish! Do they stalk him from afar or try to lock him in his room so that no one else can have him? The sky is the limit here especially once he retreats to his room and people start running into each other looking for him. Fights are encouraged and as the end of the event draws near, a certain Master and Servant combo will be taking up guard at Diarmuid's doorway to try and keep out all those affected by the curse. The problem with this? They have been affected as well!
Everyone is welcome to have their character affected whether or not they already have CR with Diarmuid. This is an excellent way to start up some CR with him if you have wanted to but really haven't found the chance to yet as he will most likely be checking in with those who were affected afterward just because he's a nice guy like that and wants to make sure everyone is okay.
If you don't want to have your character affected, but would like to get caught up in the shenanigans outside of his room, that is an option as well. People who would like to have their character troll Diarmuid and act like they are affected when they really aren't are also welcome! Or maybe your character wants to give him a thank you or something like that for helping them out, but has been too shy to until now when they can do it under the guise of being affected. The opportunities really are endless, so don't be shy about signing up.
When you sign up, please give me a few pieces of information in your comment so I can best try to arrange the chaos this is bound to cause:
