aldrip emergency planning interest check
Hi all! Due to the previous monster attack that's left Aldrip in disrepair, Claude (
feintofhart) and Marianne (
snowslip) are leading efforts to secure resources (think non-perishable food, medicine, weapons, etc.) with the goal of preparing the town for future emergencies. Below are the activities they're planning and they're looking for assistance from the Chosen because it will take a group effort to bring it all together!
This will be a plotting post for those interested in getting involved. Come help out the community and build that sweet CR in the process! We have an open log HERE for the event.
Diplomacy with Rumpitur
Land Restoration
Shoring up Storehouses

Diplomacy with Rumpitur
Travel to Rumpitur and negotiate with locals for resources, either as a goodwill donation or in exchange for labor/craftsmanship your muse can offer. This excursion will involve Chosen traveling through the haunted(?) Pessiria Forest and camping on the outskirts of Rumpitur overnight.
Land Restoration
Farmland and forests were razed in the monster attack. Help to restore fields around Aldrip by irrigating the land, planting crops, rebuilding farms, and tending to displaced animals. Dress for the weather - it'll be hot with the occasional summer rainstorm.
Shoring up Storehouses
Dig out safehouses and cellars to serve as evacuation areas and storage for emergency supplies. Dry meat, pickle vegetables, and solicit weapons from merchants in town to stockpile. Training areas have been set up for Chosen looking also to shore up their fighting ability.

Muse: Ethlyn
Which activities are you interested in?:
- Rumpitur: Ethlyn's been through the forest once and she's sure she can take it a second time, and she's talked to the Rumpiturans before. Plus she was raised to be assertive and well-mannered.
- Storehouses: She's already complained about the over-reliance on electricity and those storage methods were her normal back home. She might not be familiar with a shovel but if you put one in her hand she'll try to use it! And she can definitely guilt a merchant or two.

Muse: Tsunayoshi Sawada
Which activities are you interested in?:Shoring up storehouses, Diplomacy with Rumpitar
Anything else?: Tsuna doesn't necessarily want to go through the haunted forest because he's a weenie but that means he should go in the haunted forest. He's definitely going to downplay his diplomacy skills
no subject
so obviously this should happen

Weenies gotta stick together and make each other more scared.

Anything else?: i'm craving for some sushi. but seriously, during my hiatus last month, i made an excuse that she went to rumpitur the whole month and just chilled there. and she has a tree deck place in the forest. so she's definitely been there before. she also have shimmer (inhuman speed) so she can get there pretty quickly if she wanted to. and she also had experience of the morbol that are there.

Muse: Marianne
Which activities are you interested in?:
Marianne's very suited to looking after animals and I can throw her into land restoration prompts, but I'm pushing Marianne towards diplomacy for character development purposes and would love to have her work with others to convince the Rumpiturians. She needs to build her public speaking skills as a future margravine! I dig spooky happenings in the forest and would be up for haunted forest threads or campfire threads where she can get to know your muse better.
I'm also interested in her learning combat from others. Particularly how to wield a sword since her school closed before she could pick up other skills...but any training is good. She's a mage and has battle experience, so she can also practice with others as much as a squishy mage can.

or y'know, when he's not freaking out in the forest he might be trying to tell bad haunted stories to see if it can get anyone scared

Contact: this journal or
Muse: William G Maryblood
Which activities are you interested in?: Either shoring up storehouses or acting as manual labour to carry trade supplies to Rumpitur. (He's weak at negotiating but that could be a point of cr with someone, watching him fumble.)
Anything else?: Currently sick with covid

Contact: apomorphine @ plurk & discord
Muse: Silco
Which activities are you interested in?: Diplomacy in Rumpitur - Silco wants to explore, and he would be interested in establishing connections with others.
Anything else?: He will likely be going with Jinx, so there is a high likelihood something will blow up.

Muse: Elidibus (Final Fantasy XIV)
Which activities are you interested in?: Diplomacy, and maybe small hard labor tasks
Anything else?: Elidibus is absolutely here for negotiation, and absolutely not here for anything involving skills. The guy's probably never had to lift a shovel or plant a seed in his life. But he'll do things to the extent that a total beginner can!

Contact:
Muse: Kotone Shiomi
Which activities are you interested in?: Diplomacy and Shoring Up
Anything else?:
She'd welcome people to use the appliances/space/supplies she put together for Cooking Club for preparing and preserving food. She'll also be peeking into the training section, primarily to see if there's anything she can learn or anything she can help teach. She's an accomplished fighter in her own right, but is always open to learning something new!

Muse: Noel Kreiss
Which activities are you interested in?: Shoring up storehouses. Noel is a hunter and is very good when it comes to survival-based quests, so he's well-suited to procuring and drying meat, as well as helping maintain storehouses themselves. He's also a good fighter, and is more than willing to spar or to offer a newbie a few pointers when it comes to swordfighting.
Diplomacy with Rumpitur.
You probably don't want him on the talking end of diplomacy, but he makes a great bodyguard, and would happily act as an escort any time.
Anything else?: Noel was around during the first event that highlighted food shortages. He's really eager to make sure that doesn't happen again.

Muse: Caitlyn Kiramman
Which activities are you interested in?: shoring up storehouses
Anything else?: I was eyeing this mostly
to avoid Jinxbecause the idea of Cait teaching others to use a rifle sounds pretty fun. She has an extra one that she had a blacksmith make before she got her own from home randomly returned to her, so I was thinking letting her work on others with target practice might be interesting!no subject

Muse: yosuke hanamura
Which activities are you interested in?: diplomacy with rumpitur
Anything else?: well yosuke isn't the best at diplomacy by any means, but he'll go to see what's all out there. feel free to make him work or whatever, because he should probably just keep his mouth shut LMAO
no subject
Contact:
Muse: Mitama Yakumo
Which activities are you interested in?:
- Diplomacy with Rumpitur: As Mitama prides herself in her neutral stance in any conflict (please disregard the crime she arrived here with for a moment), she'd make quite a skilled negotiator! She would need help getting through the forest, however, since she cannot fight (well, she kind of can, but why bother when you can have an escort?)
- Shoring up Storehouses: Sort of? She'll avoid actual physical labor because she tends to delegate that kind of thing to someone else, but once she sets up her shop in the (hopefully near) future, she will offer it as an evacuation center for anyone in time of a crisis (since it would be considered neutral ground and she can protect it to an extent)
Anything else?: still trying to find that legendary work and life balance so this might be more of a "for later" note so I don't get overwhelmed─ we'll see how it goes!

Muse: Ange Ushiromiya
Which activities are you interested in?: Mostly.. training at the training areas, since Ange realises she can't just rely on her magic here.. She can also be
harassedpuppy eyedconvinced into performing some manual labor, but she'll definitely need some guidance with it, since there's very little she knows how to do herself.Anything else?: n/a!

Contact: BornToBury @ plurk is a good way to contact me.
Muse: Erichthonios
Which activities are you interested in?: EVERYTHING. He's a terrible, self-sacrificing do-gooder.
Diplomacy with Rumpitur -- He's spent a lot of time replanting Pessiria Forest, so he actually knows his way around it by now. He could, or more likely help track down people who have strayed too far from the group. His creation magick doesn't last in this environment, so he won't be offering goods (lest they be seen as untrustworthy due to them disappearing later).
Land Restoration -- as mentioned before, he's already been helping with the forest. Planting fields isn't a stretch for him at all. He also has a way with angry dangerous animals so feel free to stick your tough cases with him. And while his creation magick won't last long enough to build a house, he can make tools for temporary use.
Shoring up Storehouses -- having some small capacity for fire and ice aspected spells, he can help with the preservation of food.
Anything else?:
There's an enormous bramble patch in that forest now and it is his fault it is there.
On the plus side, at this time of year there are probably lots of berries to be snacked on.
