PLAYER PLOT: What can one Grey Warden do?

[pinprick]

Save the fucking world, if pressed

---

While the Inquisition heads to Emprise du Lion to tackle the red lyrium problem, Nathaniel Howe and Bethany Hawke have come to Skyhold with new information: the Grey Wardens are assembling at Adamant Fortress, while a shady Tevinter named Livius Erimond is headed for the Western Approach with a number of Wardens. Erimond appears to be giving orders as much as Clarel. Nathaniel is convinced bad shit is about to go down and soon it will be too late to stop it. While a ragtag group of Inquisition volunteers can't storm Adamant Fortress, Nathaniel hopes to at least slow down Clarel by assassinating or kidnapping Erimond. Unfortunately, this can't happen until the Inquisition locates Corypheus and determines that he is far enough away not to influence the Wardens.

Fortunately, the Inquisition is going to find Corypheus' current whereabouts fairly soon, at which point Nathaniel will be gathering a strike team. Six to eight participants are needed, and non-Wardens are welcome. This mission will ICly begin in early Drakonis/March, with the log going up in late Guardian/February. Because Nathaniel was not able to obtain all the information available to the Inquisitor in the game, this mission is high-risk and more dangerous than the team will know until they confront Erimond. It all has the potential to work out extremely well--or become a disaster.

This is a mission where characters may be wounded or captured in the fight. This is completely up to the individual player, but please note that any captured character will be out of play until the game's focus shifts to the Western Approach. Please direct further questions to the appropriate thread below.

Here's the timeline, subject to change:

February 22: Signup deadline
February 22-25: OOC plotting post
February 26: Mission Log goes live

Further details will be released as the date approaches. In the meantime, who wants in?

Out of curiosity, if a character does wind up captured and is out of play until the game's focus shifts, how would it work when it comes to AC checks? Since it could be awhile before they could be playable again, would they be treated as a dropped player, or as being on hiatus, or something else?

[pinprick]

You would need to be prepared to hiatus for the March 15-April 15 period, thus being exempt from AC, but prepared to make AC for the periods before and after that.

Your character can escape or be rescued if it happens prior to their arrival at Adamant Fortress and not have to take a hiatus. Once your character reaches Adamant, though, they are out till the Inquisition proper arrives.
