IN THE WAKE OF IT ALL: EVENT 001, PART 001
You’ve seen the social media posts. The tweets from Hollywood actors and actresses and the tribute Instagram posts from his fans. You’ve seen the grief surrounding his death. The lingering sadness palpable in the corners of pop culture and Mallory. You’ve read the post put up by Derek’s parents, their gratitude for the love shown toward their beloved dead son and their emotions regarding his passing. You’ve read the announcement of Derek Mitchell-Bach’s wake and celebration of life. The church service at the Mallory Church. And you’ve decided to go. You’ve decided to pay your respects to a dead man who may or may not deserve it.
So here you are now, standing under the stained glass of the church or sitting uncomfortably on one of the long wooden benches, waiting for the service to start. The service will start soon, right as the clock strikes 3 PM. You get up or you sit down. You wander around or you stay put. You find familiar and unfamiliar faces in the crowd. You talk to them or you don’t. You tell stories about Derek to one another or you have nothing to say. You look into the casket or you look away from it. You find things to do or not do to pass time before the church service starts.
Before the Hometown Hero is given his final homecoming.
It’s finally Ricochet’s first event! This part one of the event and the date is 15th July 2021. It’s before 3 PM. The service is expected to last for around two hours. Your characters have filed into town exclusively to attend this funeral. Why are they here? What do they think of Derek and his odd death? Interact with one another! Maybe share your conspiracy theories and gossips regarding his death with one another?
