THE TASK
For one reason or another, you've been called by the Investigator for a little one-on-one talk. Everything is fine, you're not in trouble, he just has a few... questions for you.

Effectively, this is a low-action scenario where Stunts asks your character questions and the two of you have a conversation together. Think of it as less of a job to do and more of a little character-building opportunity. You can interact with the environment and characters outside the scope of the task as well - for example, if the interrogation takes place at a restaurant, you and Stunts can order food from the restaurant staff.

All of these interrogations are individual (unless multiple characters agree to be investigated together); in other words, even if multiple characters sign up, the conversations can happen at different times and places. The encounter will be as low-stakes as possible, both in and out of character. Feel free to respond in any format or length as you want. Stunts may respond in an exaggerated long-winded way because he's a ridiculous detective character, you do not have to match him.

INTERROGATION TO-DO LIST
  • Your character here?!

SIGN-UP INFO

Who: Your character.
What: What is the topic of conversation? Is there a particular incident that Stunts is investigating your character for, or is there no particular reason?
Where: Where does this interrogation take place? Who chose it?
When: What time does this interrogation happen? Who chose it? This time can be any format; e.g. "Before [event happens]", "In the morning", "A few weeks ago", "On a rainy day", etc.
Why: What led to this interrogation? Are they related to an arbitrary case Stunts is working on? Did someone pay Stunts to talk to you? Are they doing this at random?

Note: If no inciting incident is provided, Stunts may or may not make up an incident and interrogate you on it. He's just so quirky like that.]]>

"Good day, I'm Elsevast and I'll be your captain. I've got a spaceship, and I'm preparing it for its non-technical test voyage. The plan is to explore spaces and other areas, noting down what we find and investigating wildlife. I'm looking for those willing to provide an extra set of hands, have interesting research ideas, or otherwise wish to take part. The ship is fairly, modular, so I'll also be taking concepts for certain facilities or objects to tag along. I've got...a decent bit of resources prepared for this, so as long as it isn't anything too esoteric I should be able to get the ship modified on time."

END GOAL: Obtain scientific data and return to town.

CHARACTERS PARTICIPATING: [Minimum of three users total, including me with Elsevast. This will start probably, around three days after we reach that or something like that, unless someone mentions they want to join and just needs some time. Otherwise not really restricting this.]

-Mane

CURRENT SHIP ROOMS:
-Helm/Command/Navigation/Flight Room
-Engine Room

-Generic Laboratory (Probably has Astronomy + Biology Stuff)

OPTIONAL INFO:

Also feel free to post commentary/idea/suggestions outside of the signup stuff.

“My name's Meeba! I'm looking for raw materials for the first part of a project I'm working on. I need to head to Cityscape and collect various construction materials and electronic components, and it would be quite helpful if I had a few extra hands to carry things back with me. I can offer you a portion of the resources everyone collects, and a prototype device I've been working on once we return.”

END GOAL: Collect as many resources as possible and return to Nexus!
 
This will be a very freeform RP, but there will be an opportunity to influence the way a future quest plays out- I'll make an out of character note once it comes up.

CHARACTERS PARTICIPATING: 2/4 (one per person, please!)
-Meeba
-Meckle
-???
-???

REQUIRED INFO:
-Name
-Image/Description
-Inventory List (3 items and a tool/weapon maximum!)
 
“I'd advise packing light, since this will be a relatively mundane supply run. You'll be carrying supplies on the way out, so leave lots of room!”

“Hi!! My name’s Partly Cloudy, and I heard of a mysterious cave full of delicious honeycomb…I want to get some and bring it home to my husband as a treat, since he loooves sweets. I’m looking for brave adventurers who are willing to get their paws a little dirty, and maybe deal with some danger!”

END GOAL: Find that honeycomb!
 
This task will be lightly DM’d, but have plenty of room for people to wing it and do their own thing. There may also be a special bonus surprise at the end for those who participate…and honeycomb!

CHARACTERS PARTICIPATING: 1/4 (one per person, please!)
-Partly Cloudy
-Count Diamondstall
-Lumin
-Vial

REQUIRED INFO:

Here you may post a listing for something you need done by members of our community- this can be anything!

Here’s how it works:
1) Post your thread with the following info:

-a description of the task at hand and what the end goal for completion is- this can be as complicated or as easy as you like, but keep in mind- you don’t get forum cash until it’s completed! it may be better for you to start out with simpler tasks and work your way up once you and your peers have established characters and dynamics to play off each other and get things done.

-whether this task will be guided (either DM-style or in character, feel free to get weird with it) or freeform

-character signup information.  You can sign up a maximum of two characters per user for a listing, unless the listing requires only two characters- at which point you can only sign up one for the sake of variety. You can request players provide other character info upon signing on, but at minimum, your listing response should include character name and image.

-anything recommended for the task- this can be types of characters, items/tools, and/or any content warnings necessary for the task itself.
 
 
2) Wait for characters to sign up. You don’t need all of the slots to be filled to start a task, but you should at least have one other player to work with! While you’re accepting applicants, please mark your thread as [OPEN].

3) Start the task as a roleplay in the same thread. This goes until your goal is completed, which is up to your discretion! Please make sure to mark your thread as [IN PROGRESS].

4) Once you complete a roleplay, go to the redemption thread here and report it as complete. Every participant will receive 10 cash for every page of roleplay done!
 
 
5) Make sure to mark your thread as [COMPLETE] when done!
That’s all you need to do tasks! Enjoy!
