Big Potion HQ Heist

The core Heist group.

The Heist was a multi-person, asynchronous role-playing experience conceived by HighTac. A more free-form Dungeons and Dragons session with no die-rolling. The event included multiple phases, and different levels of participation, from those deeply involved in planning and execution, to spontaneous participation in the Milk Guild “protest” associated event.

On January 22, 2022, the Heist party collaborated in a private Discord chat, while the Protest event occurred simultaneously in a Discord channel that the entire community could view.

Heist Participants

Core Heist Team

Although not all of the pictured Wizards ended up participated on the day of the Heist, this illustrates the level of planning involved beforehand.

• HighTac: Organizer / dungeonmaster. Also participated through Arcanist Toka of the Woodlands (9493)
• ZayLaSoul: Alchemist Lumos of the Capital (8174)
• Zizzle: Shadow Mage Nixie of the Riviera (3467)
• Ember(theheretic.eth): Arcanist Sahir of the Keep (8923)
• Dubiousfood: Runecaster George of the Temple (5340)

Auxiliary Team

• Merlin: Merlin (540) helped to kick off the Heist by initiating a Runiverse-wide power outage, disabling many of Big Potion's defenses.
• Kel: Chaos Mage Miyo of the Wood (8711) was the primary instigator in the Milk Guild's Big Potion protest happening in the courtyard in front of the HQ building. This provided a further diversion, aiding in the core Heist team's infiltration.
