Somniar Practical Planning

paracelsus_modsHi everybody! We are going to get the practical up later today, because I figure this may take some time. This post is for the purposes of planning!
People will be split into groups of three for this event. People will go into caves that are sealed off, and come face to face with the Somniars; they're behind magical barriers, which means -- ideally -- they just see them, and learn what scares them. And force other people to see them, too. But then, the barriers are let down, and the Somniars rush out and attack people! You can check out the details of how the Somniars work on weekchange. They'll go after everyone, but they are focused heavily on the individuals who were involved in the attacks during the Tower Exam. The Somniars will be trying to kill these people, and are being directed in that.
We will leave GMing your fear-inspired monsters up to you, with a reasonable amount of trading -- so if they're scared of another character, the Somniar taking that character's form could be played by the character's mun. However, there will be a couple things where the mods may step in to provide guidance, because obviously someone is behind this. We'll give you clues about that! And a chance for an encounter with Somebody.
Also, to be clear: the Somniars will not break out of the Tower (or even past the floor that the practical is held on). So if you're not in the practical for some reason, then you won't encounter your fear. This is an opt out in case you'd rather not put your character through the ringer.
So! Plot your groups and your fears out. The practical goes up this afternoon. :E
