Player Faction: Beacon of Hope

Have you been wanting more mage shenanigans? Do you want your character to help mages out more? Would you like some revolution in your life?

If you answered yes to any of those, I have good news for you! If you’re somehow Meredith Stannard, however, you can probably skip reading this post.

With mod permission, I’ve created a mage faction - Beacon of Hope. Anders’ network, found here, is sending in reports, and I’ll have about 2 missions a month running to help mages in different ways, along with a task. Anders is the official head of the faction, with Vandelin as his second, but positive CR with Anders isn’t required to participate. Anyone is welcome to join in.



Missions will have a contact point (one of the network) who will generally start off each mission and I’ll NPC them to help keep things going/provide plot points, but teams signing up will be free to improvise off the information they’re given. Teams will generally have at least one mage each since these are mage-interest missions, but beyond that they won’t be restricted. Any character who wants to help will be welcome. After the mission is complete, or at the end of the month/when the end result is determined, one character from the team can either write a short report on what happened and post it to the faction page (coming soon, I’ll edit with a link when it’s up,) or use Anders’ inbox to tell him what happened and I’ll write up how he’d summarize what info is given him.

Characters do not have to like Anders or be liked by Anders to participate. They simply need to be good at what they do; he’s not gonna be picky when it comes to using resources to help his people.

If you’d like to suggest a mission, or run one through the faction (since Inquisition mage missions can’t be led by non-Loyalist mages anymore) you’re welcome to hit me up on Discord at Nadat#4647. All missions still need to be mod-approved before they can go forward and since Anders is loosely running this I do want to make sure the premise of the mission fits the faction before it’s associated with Anders and the network.

There is an option to join the faction instead of just running missions for it, but no one has to join to help out. Joining won’t have any OOC implication at this time, there won’t be priority given to them for missions, but ICly it will have meaning for Anders. The names of those who join will not be published or spread by him; it will be up to any joined characters whether they want to publicize it or not.

FINALLY, beyond this post being a place for questions or comments, I have two missions that are available for July to break this group in.

Where’s Waldon?: An older couple has requested help finding their son, a mage. They know he survived the Circles, they have a letter from him just after he'd escaped the White Spire slaughter, but they haven't heard from him since. Contact point: Kian Price, 3-4 people

Lost: An anonymous report has come in that several children of mages who were housed in Ferelden went missing recently, the dorm they lived in burned to the ground with the guards slaughtered. Contact point: Siobhan Breathnach, 3-4 people

Task: Teach A Skill - Teach any mage a skill. Fishing, sewing, swimming, creative uses of magic, the possibilities are endless.

Absolutely. :D Possibly even the second one, since I'm thinking Nate might be inclined to support this.
