go to the OOC Plotting Post or IC Event Log

---

This post is for coordination to prevent the IC Event Log from being overrun by OOC mod and player communications. Forms and instructions are available in this post.

Use this post to:

◎ Coordinate event plots with the mods
◎ Request a mod dice roll
◎ Submit noticeable actions
◎ Write rapid IC exchanges
◎ Investigate a plot point or track ongoing investigations

If you have any questions, see the Questions thread on the OOC Plotting Post.

Available Forms

For details on each form, see the sections below.
Be sure to reply under your assigned category if applicable.

Mod Communications

If you have an idea related to the event plot, communicate and coordinate with us here. This includes NPC meetings, requesting resources, destroying the environment, or anything else that may require mod permission. If we can't accommodate a request for any reason, we'll do our best to offer an alternative!

Contact Us

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Request:</b> (Describe what you'd like to do)

Randomization Request

Request a mod dice roll at any time for outcomes and consequences. Some actions require a dice roll to proceed, such as attacking an acolyte NPC or attempting to break anything major in the environment (chains, doors, walls). If you aren't sure, you can check with us.

Request here

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Action:</b> (Describe what your character is attempting to do and how) <b>Thread:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (Link to the thread where this is taking place) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else)

Notable Actions

Submit notable actions that are likely to gain attention from other players, such as fights or disturbances.

Submit a notable action

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>When:</b> (Approximately when is this incident taking place?) <b>Where:</b> (Where is this incident taking place?) <b>What:</b> (Describe the incident) <b>Link:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (If applicable. Actions can be submitted without a thread if they're minor, such as if your character snores loudly every night.)

IC Exchanges

Use this option for interactions you'd like to play out, but setting up a standard IC thread would be impracticable. For instance, if your character wants to speak to several people about an event they witnessed together, you might want to do an IC exchange.

Treat this like an informal IC network thread done in person, where character reactions, snippets of dialogue, and other details can be quickly played out and concluded in-game without committing to a full log thread. Exchanges are game canon and can count towards Activity Check under the category of a Network thread.

Start an IC exchange

Using the provided form is optional. Begin a thread freeform if you prefer.

<b>Where & when:</b> (Where and when is this exchange taking place?) <b>Purpose:</b> (What's the reason for this exchange?) <b>THREAD START</b> (Write the scenario, your character's actions, and any dialogue as usual)

Investigations

Several investigation paths are available for characters to interact with. Each assignment group will have their own set of investigation paths. You can investigate something as many times as you want, as long as there's a reasonable explanation for your character making their second attempt. Interacting with investigations might carry IC consequences. We'll try to telegraph when characters are at high risk of triggering something major. To investigate, fill out the form, then comment under the item you're investigating.

Interact with an Investigation

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Other characters involved:</b> <b>Action:</b> (Describe what your character is attempting to do and how. If multiple characters are taking action, include their actions.) <b>Thread:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (Link to a top level or any other relevant threads. This is so we can review what the characters involved have been doing to best flavor the investigation outcome for you!) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else)

Comments

[aquaveiled]

Thank you so much!! I'll touch base with Himeka's travelling companion and we'll definitely play with the shrieking weed sniffing dog.

Here is the thread for Osanna!

Also really quick in regards to the Council, does Rowan feel that Josselyn ever saw the Summoned differently than the other Councilmembers?

[abraxasmods]

Rowan would answer that Josselyn's interests over time gradually diverged from the commune's belief that the Summoned were integral to the settlement's community. He believed that this was originally due to her self-interest in trades with the other nations, but now he fears her intentions went beyond that.

[aquaveiled]

Thank you!

If possible Himeka would like to touch-base with the Council a little later during this first part of the event. She'd like to let them know that they're making progress in tracking down leads and that the Summoned in other factions are assisting as well. With this she'd like to request that they open their borders to other Summoned for a time to assist. She thinks it's be important and beneficial for the Summoned to see things for themselves.

If this seems a little outlandish she may suggest a buddy system as well.

[abraxasmods]

The Council is aware of the connections to Solvunn, and so are willing to open their borders to the other factions within reason.

If Thorne and the Free Cities receive a request from their Summoned to visit Solvunn to help investigate, they'll allow it if the person making the request is a trusted Summoned or is accompanying someone who is a trusted Summoned. While we won't require a specific rank for this, essentially, at least one of the Summoned in the group should have a history of contributing to their faction in some manner that proves them as reliable. Officials will also send an escort to make sure everything is above order.

A portal will be available to drop characters off at the edge of Solvunn's borders. Characters can cross over with their escort and continue from there.

The Council will take good care of their guests. The Solvunnites will be somewhat curious since visitors from other nations are unusual, but they'll retain their usual friendliness.

Hi there, mods! Checking in to see if Thancred would be permitted to travel to Solvunn if he asked Thorne officials? If you need a summary or justification for this, let me know!

[abraxasmods]

Yes, Thancred would be allowed since he's been helpful around Thorne.

[funbreaker]

Great! If possible, he would ask if he could bring G'raha with him as well. While he's new to Abraxas, Thancred would vouch for him as a stalwart companion from home who will be dedicated to the investigation/rescue of those taken.

[abraxasmods]

Yes, he may bring G'raha with him!

[funbreaker]

Awesome, thanks so much!

[cryptsleeper]

Echoing the sentiment above, as Al would like to bring the deeply fucked up wood that was sent over to Libertas to how the Council and see if they can make any sense of it.

[abraxasmods]

Alucard can visit with a sample of the ruined wood. He needs to make sure it's securely wrapped or stored. You can submit the investigation request under Solvunn's section using Tracking Leads, and include any other relevant details or characters involved.

[cryptsleeper]

Thank you, I've put the comment in the appropriate thread!

[hextechhead]

Echoing these two as we're already here, Jayce would like to go to with Alucard. He'd like to follow up on the flesh wood that was found and he also wants to talk to Claire about medical needs possible in the rescue crew.

[abraxasmods]

Yes, Jayce can also visit with a sample of the ruined wood along with Alucard. He needs to make sure it's securely wrapped or stored. You can submit the investigation request under Solvunn's section using Tracking Leads, and include any other relevant details or characters involved. He can also speak to Claire. If you have some ideas regarding medical requirements or provisions, you can submit a separate request with those details.

[hextechhead]

Hello mods, just a note here as Nadine is bringing medical things, can Jayce bring some multitools/tools from his shop? He wouldn't bring any weapons for the obvious reason (not very diplomatic) but he does make some nice collapsible tools that maybe people would find helpful to have.

Added: also Viktor made an old-fashioned blender and sunglasses, if he can bring those too just as little gifts.

[abraxasmods]

Yes, these gifts would be accepted!

[nadine_he_loves]

And throwing Nadine in to request to go to Solvunn to help investigate, and to bring medical supplies with her.

[abraxasmods]

Yes, Nadine may go to Solvunn and bring some medical supplies!

[cointosser]

Might as well throw Jaskier into the asking train as well! I technically asked over here (with Jaskier filling in Quilleth), but hadn't gotten an answer to that particular question.

Jaskier is going specifically to get a tracking signal for Viktor for the most part, but he would also be interested in introducing himself to the Council.

[abraxasmods]

Yes, Jaskier may go! At the time that Jaskier asked, the arrangement with Solvunn had not yet been made, but once it has she will inform him that he can proceed.

Rowan March and Isar Hart will remember Jaskier. The former will recall Jaskier due to his song about Lyfbringr while Isar will recall their conversation in Nocwich. They'll be quite cordial with him with the typical Solvunn warmth.

[cointosser]

Brilliant, thank you! He's going to be so flattered. :) (no he won't he's not humble)

What sort of signal would he get from Solvunn, standing near the borders?

[abraxasmods]

The signal will point north in Solvunn.

[theidlemaiden]

Hi mods! As per this inquiry, Hilda would like to travel to Solvunn with Altair to pursue the lead they found in the bandit's camp about the forested area near the settlement. They'll be meeting up with Wanda on the other side.
