RP Antag and Objective Changes/Ideas

[nefarious6th]

...What about 'Assume John schmoe's identity and out him as an impostor without killing him'? Perfectly doable with the transforming sting, turn him into someone else, knock him out, steal his id, scream bloody murder! Its only one way to do it though.

Obviously this is meant as an "everyone's-thread" kind of thing, but I personally really, really like this idea a ton. And it leads to a whole bunch of new opportunities to explore some of the less-used changeling plays, so I'm all for it. 

Emphasis on limbcritters and thralls is nice too. I think my only concern/line of inquiry I have is that would a limbcritter objective then encourage changelings to bump people out of the hive and into limbcritters versus having them ride along? I don't know how signifcant that is on RP, since I haven't been assimilated into a hivemind, but I'd be curious to learn from anyone who plays changeling/gets eaten by changelings more frequently if that's an experience that tends to be like a limited version of spectating, or something a little more co-op with granting control to hivemind members here and there? If it's the second, do you think people would miss out on those opportunities if they had to be turned into critters instead? Do people treat critters nicely enough on RP that being a critter would be a tenable option for players? I have a lot of questions, only because I don't play as changelings or critters often! 

I mostly agree with traitor in that you get the most leeway to slap together whatever gimmick you want and you get your pick of the tools for the job. 

Feel free to re-share or link the conspirator thread, and I can add it to the main post! I didn't do enough backscroll to see it, and that's on me, so apologies for that. I'd be down for a greater number of objectives, especially since admins in the Discord bounced the idea of maybe making the gamemode more frequent; I'd like as many different conspirator adventures to come out of RP as possible! 

Thank you so much for sharing; I think there's definitely something novel to work with on the "identity theft" changeling idea for sure! :+)
