We all have our little plans when it comes to what our characters will face and experience. as such, sometimes it may be a bit complicated to keep track of all that stuff so how about dust off this section of the forum and make a place to help us with that.

As such you can follow the guidelines to sort future Plotlines, as well as Character-Specific Arcs that you may have in the works.

Plotlines are the more straight forward of the two. It's the kind of story you wanna tell involving more than one thread that involves a continuous adventure (with some exceptions):

Code:
 

[b]Plotline Name:[/b] (The name of your Plotline. It doesn't necessary gonna be the name of a particular thread)
[b]Characters Involved:[/b] (Which Converger characters, whatever yours or other player's, will be involved in this story?)
[b]Plot Description:[/b] (A summary of the story and setting.)
[b]No. of Threads:[/b] (How many threads will it need?)
[b]Status:[/b] (Basically give the status of your Plotline: Pending, In-Progress or Completed. Please edit when the Plot's status has changed.)
[b]Threads:[/b]

[b]-Thread no. <Insert Number Here>:[/b]
[i]Name:[/i] (Name of the particular Thread)
[i]Description:[/i] (A Small summary of the thread)
[i]Extra:[/i] (Optional. Any extra bits of information needed to be addressed that are thread-specific.)

<You can add more Threads according to how many you placed on the "No. of Threads" Section>

[b]Important Points:[/b] (Optional. A breakout of the different plot points or character-specific developments that will happen through the entire Plotline.)
[b]Notes: [/b](Optional. Any extra info that may be necessary.)


Now if you wanna keep tabs on the character development of a specific character in Arcs, you can tweak the template with the name of the particular character, as well as using the Thread list to just, well, list the different threads that had importance in the overall arc with no extra descriptions needed.

==========================

Example:

Plotline Name: Nexus Inbound

Characters Involved: Ratchet & Clank; Kalas; Xelha; Spider-Man; <Additional Character if Available>

Plot Description: "A Re-telling of the story of Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus. The Nebulox Seven Prison Ship has fallen. The notorious and dangerous super-criminals Neftin and Vendra Prog have escaped to a forgotten and apparently haunted sector of the Polaris Galaxy. As a distress signal is send for space heroes to aid in the search, Ratchet & Clank are stranded on the very same planet the Progs are conducting strange space-manipulating experiments. What sinister powers are the twins hoping to unleash upon the universe? And how will it determine Ratchet's ideals for the future and search of his race?"

No. of Threads: 3
Status: Pending
Threads:

-Thread no. 1:
Name: Lost & Spaced
Description: "Our Converger heroes arrive at planet Yerek, to find Ratchet & Clank and join them in their search of the fugitive criminals. As they face against the mercenary troops of Thugs-4-Less they soon learn of the dastardly plans that the Prog Twins are planning. Who are the Nethers? and who is this Mr. Eye?"
Extra: n/a

-Thread no. 2:
Name: It Came from the Nether-Regions!
Description: "Our heroes chase after the Progs to an abandoned city on planet Silox, but the entire city is crawling with mercenaries everywhere! Can they reach the Twins and stop them before it's too late?"
Extra: n/a

-Thread no. 3:
Name: So Long, and Thanks for all the Bolts
Description: "The Nether Leader has been unleashed!! With an alliance made and a plan set, our heroes head to Meridian City to find and repair the Dimensionator; The only thing that can stop the Nether invasion for good. However, a full-mass attack complicates the situation and as such, the Convergers have to defend the city as the fate of the universe hangs in the balance..."
Extra:

Important Points: <To be Determined>
Notes: Certain fights has been added/changed to fit more heroes. Also the Destructapalooza arena will be skipped for better pacing (Possibly be turned into a Scrap if necessary, set between the first two threads.)
