Etrigan Plot
Hey gang!
I apologize for the Etrigan-plot kinda dragging down to a standstill the last few days-- it's gone longer than I expected in Real Life Time (which always seems to be the case with Plots), but I think we're just about into the last leg/grand finale as it were and I hope it isn't leaving anyone feeling too left out-- there's still plenty of time to throw your characters into and at things.
Just to update as to what is going on/where things are: basically, several characters have now had interactions with Etrigan face to face, and their threads are proceeding to the point where they will (I presume) try and tell the city that SOMEONE'S here and dangerous.
Currently, those people are Glitch, Logan, Sherlock who is currently with Nuada, and also Johannes, but he's probably still pretty close-mouthedbecause what is morality, Johannes? Also, Emma is at Jason's house, poking around, and can also guess maybe that something is wrong in the land of stripey-haired men.
Any one of these characters is welcome to 'pull the alarm bell', so to speak, once their threads get there-- I was largely playing it by ear in terms of letting things develop, and I'll leave that open as it can be still. If, in the interests of moving things along, someone wants to 'claim' who gets to sound the official alarm, that's fine by me-- then we can post that that warning is given to the city, and resolve those threads towards those goals.
That said: BIG BRAWLY TIME.
Within the next day or so I'll hopefully put up a post setting up the Impressive Final Fight-- anyone who wants to get in some melee fun is welcome to. As a rough guideline for how I imagine things might go (though I'm TOTALLY OPEN to improvising and people coming up with their own ideas!), I imagine that the more physical fighters will wind up restraining Etrigan after a lot of punches and horrible injuries on both sides, at which point if a character can help get Sherlock the violin back, Sherlock can try the chant.
I am not locking this stuff in stone at all, these are merely brainstorming ideas for things I could see characters doing, so please don't feel like they are orders, just suggestions if you feel stuck:
-Metody using bones to either help restrain Etrigan or to create a shield around Sherlock for when Etrigan attempts to light him on fire?
-Maddy using her TK to create walls of force and dampen the flames and/or protect everyone else from them?
-Spike, Logan, Etrigan, Nuada, Horst, anyone else I'm forgetting that likes a good fight-- TRADIN' BLOWS AND WRESTLING DEMONS TO THE GROUND LIKE BOSSES?
-Johannes, contributing insight into the significance of the violin? (Other characters might also be able to realize what it signifies)
-Selina-- oh, you say you need something small and golden stolen?
-Paul-- triaging on injured people if needed
-Glitch-- super-badass fire extinguisher invention?
If I'm leaving out a character of yours it is not because they have nothing to contribute, merely because I am writing at two a.m. and my brain is fuzzy! Please feel free to make suggestions. <3

I mean, unless someone else wants it and if so please take it off my hands. Otherwise we can handwave the "alarm-pulling" so I'm not putting another post up.
ETA also if Glitch finds out anyone was sitting on info re: a big bad wandering around and DIDN'T tell everyone? He's makng them clean up the shop >:(

Horst likes the option where Etrigan fights himself, but if that doesn't work out, he's willing to partner you for this little waltz.

I am so up for this! The fleshy bit of Metody might wander off so as to focus on the bones BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF ETRIGAN. Because demons aren't people, and it's fine to hurt them, and someone's been driving her towards the edge lately, and oh, golly, is she ever mad about having to move.
She will happily crunch Etrigan in a cage of bones and teeth. Armor for Sherlock is a little trickier, because that'd require openly admitting what she is, but maybe a critter could guard/swallow him?
