Personality Skew Plot
So, I was thinking of having Jinx rob the local museum of natural history and steal the Gem of the Pandora. When she blindly activates the item, it changes her personality, and then teleports randomly to somewhere else in the city. Every time someone touches the gem, their personality (and the personality of everyone nearby) is fundamentally changed by a blast of Chaos magic. They may turn to evil from good, from good to evil, from shy to a party-animal, from nice to a jerk, from unromantic to a Cassanova, etc. The duration of the effects also seems random, lasting as little as a few hours or as long as weeks.
Their costume may also be instantly changed to reflect their new personality. While their personality is changed, the character may have different memories to back up their new persona (ie your hero turned villain might remember having always been a villain). When they have returned to their normal personality, they will remember everything they did while under the gem's influence.
The same person can be effected by the gem multiple times. "Touch" does not just mean skin contact, those who pick it up with gloves are also affected. Tongs might work.
Please post plans here. Is you character going to be affected by the gem? What will it do to their personality? If they aren't affected by the gem, how may they react to everyone else going nuts?
Also, who is going to try and destroy the gem? (Warning, it is both durable and hard to track.)
The plot will start July 12, with a post of Jinx robbing the Museum. You may post there to be one of the first ones affected, but you can have your hero be affected at any point until August 12, when the gem will be destroyed. You can have your hero be affected as long as you like during the duration of the plot, but when the gem is destroyed it should set everyone's personalities back to normal.

Conveniently, they come packing evil counterparts!
Some of us more than one.SO - an update so everyone's on the same page knowing what's coming down the pike. At least mostly, as far as I can say on my own end as I won't try to speak for everyone.
Yuri and Tsubomi both will have their personalities twisted, taking on the guises of Cure Moonlight Mirage and Cure Blossom Mirage from canon amid the duration of this plot, leaving poor Erika to fend for herself. This will go on for some time while the plot is active, with Yuri and Tsubomi leveraging the fact that their identities are mostly secret still, as they seek out magical artifacts to use for their own gain. Including their own.
By the climax of their end of things, they will inevitably be thwarted by their own canonmates. BUT... I know at least Yuri is going to be up for bothering the hell out of other people in the meantime and generally making a nuisance of herself.
