WHAT'S NEW?
MORE
The four new locations from the October mingle, as well as the Casino/event center from August, have been added to their corresponding location pages. These locations are open for use, but have nothing else new in them, and any ghostly features from the mingle (like seeing spooky shadows or reflections) are no longer in effect.
The Haunted House and Stone Circle are listed on the Aldrip area page. The underground grotto and abandoned bunker are on the overworld page listed in the section about Pessiria Forest.
What used to be the Casino has been reopened as a general Event Center, and is listed in the NPC Businesses. It’s not open very often, but Chosen are welcome to use it to organize their own events, if they so desire.
THIS MONTH IN ALDRIP

NOVEMBER EVENT
This month’s event will focus heavily on travel, exploration, and investigation. Even though it’s an event month, a lot of people are beginning to gear up for the holiday season–that means things get busier IRL, so we want to be mindful of that, especially since we may also be busy! We’ll reveal more details closer to the time of the event, but considering the success of recent RNG/lore-dropping mechanics, we might include a similar element for the November event as well. Stay tuned!
TRADE AND TRAVEL
The Rumpiturians are soon going to be opening a new trade route between Aldrip and Rumpitur. Because travel can be tricky and sometimes dangerous, this will be a joint effort, and Rumpiturians–currently less wary than Aldrip’s citizens–welcome the Chosen to get involved by protecting cargo and travelers, bringing their own wares, or finding other ways to get involved.
MISSING NPCS
Locals continue to be wary of the Chosen, especially with the missing shopkeepers and other residents still missing. There are no further signs of the missing people, for now, but keep an eye out, as we will return to this plot point soon.
STATE OF ALDRIP
Weather continues to move into fall territory, with cooling temperatures and browning leaves. Still mostly sunny days ahead, but with the occasional chilly rain shower as well.
The Chosen will continue to find wariness from the locals, especially those who have abandoned their charms. And remember the statue gardens and shrines from so long ago? They’re no longer maintaining those, either. Statues can be defaced or removed, and indeed, many already have. Whole sections of the statue garden have been repurposed into a lovely little outdoor area.
Monsters continue to give characters a wide berth, but with temperatures beginning to drop, who knows how long that will last? Keep an eye out.
As we said above, business owners continue to be missing! Any Chosen who’d want to take over a specific business need only ask. Silco seems to have taken over several restaurants, Claude has started running the apothecary…there are still locations left in town for other enterprising businesses, though–a few restaurants, and plenty of other things.
LOOKING AHEAD / REMINDERS

SENTENCING
For those who were picked for sentencing, please get those in by November 10!
REMINDERS
- Anyone taking over businesses, please update that info on the PLAYER BUSINESS PAGE.
- December’s AC will be a similar check-in to what we had in July during the mod changeover.
- Just a general heads up that we love seeing what you all have planned in our fair city of Aldrip! Player plots can be directed at THIS PAGE, please let us know if there’s something you would like to do that would impact the town/NPCs and we’ll see how we can help make it happen.
- If you would like to submit plants or animals/monsters from your characters’ worlds, we are always open to that! Please use the forms on the corresponding pages if you’re interested.
SO MUCH LOVE,
October was quite a month, huh? We had a ton of stuff going on, thanks in no small part to our amazing players. Thank you all! Please let us know if you have any feedback on recent mechanics, events, etc. We’re looking forward to things to come–and we hope you are, too!

Jenni told me to put this here so I'm putting it here. On Halloween, jinx (and quentin) egged city hall because Jerry and the council didn't deserve treats. Only tricks. It got cleaned up the next day or almost immediately from what I was told. Still, they got egged and that's what matters in everyone's heart. Ye? ye.
