NOVEMBER MID-MONTH UPDATE POST.

NOVEMBER MID-MONTH UPDATE POST. Hello, dear players! We hope you've been having a good month so far. November's mid-month event will be a small one to accommodate for player size - but it'll be one that has a major impact on the plot going forward. Let's get into it! WHILE YOU WERE AWAY... Recovery of the crystals has been proceeding apace thanks to the help from player characters. However, something will go amiss on the 15th - literally, as a caravan of NPCs transporting a crystal load to the Spring faction has vanished. Lucius will ring up the player characters as soon as their tracking signal disappears from his Moon-wide radar. The caravan's last known point of transmission is five miles into the Badlands, and he requests them to check out the site in hopes of finding the vanished people. Crystals are, after all, very valuable for multiple reasons. THE SEARCH. If PCs follow the coordinates paged to them by Lucius, they will find a still-smoking crater punched into the ground. Wood splinters from carts are dropped here and there on a trail (almost as if intentionally) and will lead to a cave after twenty minutes of walking.The cave looks to be a naturally-formed cave with a dead end. Examination of the end wall will reveal some sort of seal to magic-sensitive characters... as well as two hellhounds that are very obviously door guards. Getting past these fire-spitting hounds will lead into the heart of the mystery. Threading out the search and exploration up until this point will earn you a mod-directed fight and lore thread! Please let us know here if you are keen to participate in this event. Finishing this arc will also introduce new plot elements for December. And most importantly: have fun!

Louise will come, but leave Lottie at preschool or with someone because this sounds too dangerous to drag a child into it without need.

[lasteden]

Does Louise have proficiency with any type of weapon? It can be provisioned by NPCs for her safety.

[ordinarycitizen]

She's pretty proficient with a longbow! Her main fighting abilities lie in the hand-to-hand combat area and may not apply here, but she is also decent enough, though untrained, with a frying pan blunt weapons.

[lasteden]

A composite longbow can be provided for her to use, sourced from the military. She can also acquire a sword or a firearm if needed, we leave it up to your discretion!

[ordinarycitizen]

She'll pass up firearms, as she has no experience with those, and the sword for the same reason, but she'll happily accept the longbow.

I assume she won't be able to keep it afterwards?

[lasteden]

Given that she's been a law-abiding resident, she will be allowed to keep it if she wishes to.

[ordinarycitizen]

She'd love to! Is there a shooting range or an archery club or something like that around Light where she could train afterwards?

[lasteden]

There is a small one! Usually it is used by the military and other people who train for their daily quota of exercise, but she can go in too.

[ordinarycitizen]

Sweet!
