owo what's this? a planning thread? thanks everyone else for taking the plunge
Cheris will be working security detail, while inside of the situation. She's community-minded in the sense that she's willing to step into a leader-ly role among the people of New Amsterdam, as she's capable of simultaneously caring for people while manipulating the hell out of them. Her main goal is to locate Judas.
While she doesn't mind if anyone tags along, she's very much willing to make difficult and ugly decisions to reach him. Right now, I'm not sure what she'll do if she's able to reach Judas, only that she feels a sense of kinship with him. Similar (but obviously not the same!!) to him, she is also a tactical, military force that has historically been used by others in her own canon. It's a very kneejerk emotion and comparison, but it's definitely something driving her towards him in the end. Also, I'm always willing to offer Cheris up as a bad guy/to throw a challenging wrench into anyone's plans! She loves people, she'll do anything for them, but she's not above manipulating them to reach her own goals (she's very, very "long con").
As for Wei Wuxian, he's working on the two "P's" outside of the simulation: propaganda and PRESERVE. While at heart, he wants to ruin the UN - that's a vengeful response and it might not be at all wise to tear down the world's governing force. Right? Maybe. At the least, he wants to push back against the UN. As of this event, he's maintained and built a pretty decent e-following: between a decent social media presence on various sites, he's also worked for a few months at Armand's and now plays at Red Wings on Mondays. Did someone ask for a political idol? You're getting one! He can also, idk, hypnotize at least one important person, should anyone be able to reach them at this time.
Secondly, he wants to protect and empower PRESERVE. Acquiring funding for them that keeps them independent of politicians or corporations digging their fingers into it is pretty important to him. This might take more of a backseat for the event, but I wanted to keep it in the forefront of my mind.
