A storyline on String Theory MUX is a series of related logs that together form a Tinyplot (TP). It doesn't matter whether the TP is player-run or staff-run, or if it takes place over a few days, a few weeks or a few months; if it's the kind of story that affects a wide breadth of characters, it belongs here. Try to think of each volume as a collection of short stories/novellas, and each chapter as a separate (but semi-related) tale.
Note: Before adding any new chapters, please consult with staff to make sure that your storyline belongs here. More likely than not, you'll probably be right — but there's always a chance there might be a better place on the wiki for it.

August 12th to October 9th, 2008

Civella, known to be at the head of one of New York City's largest remaining crime syndicates, was arrested after an investigation team had managed to gather meaningful evidence linking him directly with involvement to the attempted murder of Myers in August. Although authorities have not released a motive for Civella's actions, it has been speculated by the media for some weeks that Myers was in possession of incriminating information against the suspect at the time of the shooting. Police Commissioner Karen Lau declined to comment. | ||
