 OoC:
Â
New Plot, New Events! Continuation of the "Saga of the Wind Swept Sands," "Blood on the Sands," and "In the Shadow of Death's Wings" narratives! *
Â
The intention here is to encourage and foster in-game roleplay in rarely-frequented locales while simultaneously advancing the personal stories of the participants. This will be done through a long-running series of events comprised of myriad tasks assigned to new hires. Perhaps your newfound employer will require you to deliver a message, or recover a priceless artifact, or track down a certain individual... and mayhap along the way you'll succeed, or be thwarted, or sidetracked by a fascinating encounter with the impossible. Rest assured, it's all connected! The game's afoot, as they say!
Â
This is an excellent opportunity to meet new faces and gather with old friends. Furthermore, it's up to you how much and how long you're involved. Since the plot is structured to accommodate both low and high attendance for the events, there's no pressure. Missed a week or several? No problem, jump right in whenever. Not for you? Feel free to bow out.
Â
Due to fallout from previous events and the hard lessons taken from the resulting controversies, this plot is written and its encounters designed to purposefully avoid any medium-to-large scale impacts on the general RP community. There will be no explosives rigged to blow up half a city-state, no poisoning of water sources, none of that. Instead, think of this as an opportunity to play James Bond or the like, as the narrative consists mainly of behind-the-scenes scheming and near-constant small-scale conflicts between antagonistic and rival parties.
Â
Minor Warning: As a consequence of further developing existing narratives, this plot will involve a number of characters whose inherent natures fall under lore-bending, if not outright lore-breaking. Appearances by, impact from, and interaction with these characters will be kept to a minimum as much as possible, allowing you to choose exactly how much exposure to such and how much adherence to lore you'd prefer.
Â
That said, despite the overall seriousness of this tale (as opposed to more outlandish and/or carefree events) we're aiming for fun fun fun! Please look forward to it.

RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Parvacake - 01-08-2015
I could see Lili doing some work to better advance connections for the Society and for herself
Plus, new people are pretty nifty!
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - cuideag - 01-08-2015
Delial and her partner in crime Saxon Thorne would probs be fishing around for miscellaneous side-jobs that hopefully don't revolve around Big Scary Political Figures and the Pirates They Hate.
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Melkire - 01-08-2015
Added you all.
There's money.
There will be connections.
This might revolve around Big Scary Expatriate Figures and the People They Hate.
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Jancis - 01-08-2015
If you need any help with side characters and fill-in I'll help!
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Berrod Armstrong - 01-08-2015
Ooh, I'll definitely want a piece of this. Only question is on what character...Steeljaw, maybe...
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Melkire - 01-08-2015
Thank you both. /bow
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Zakary'e Khai - 01-08-2015
I'd totally be interested in participating, Zakary'e has been trying to look for some quick jobs for extra gil. Sign me up!
RE: Carrion Underfoot [Balmung] - Jariana - 01-08-2015
If room for one more is still around, I'd like to sign Jari up for this as well. I've been meaning to expand my RP circle a bit, and this seems like a good way to go about it. Thanks!
