Hello friends & enemies. I'm running a player plot beginning September 29 wherein up to six lucky Riftwatchers will be captured, tossed in a fortress dungeon, maybe lightly tortured, and forced to try to escape while half-naked and hurt. Pretty straightforward stuff that is meant for CR development rather than moving any bigger plot point forward. Keywords: stealth, combat, hurt/comfort or hurt/suck it up dude we have to move.

To participate you have to agree to write one (1) NPC that everyone else might encounter during the escape. We'll also use a fortress map that I'll black out so the way out is revealed one room/space at a time as folks RP reaching those places, with dead ends possible. Aside from the info provided in advance on the map and my turn with an NPC I won't be GMing, so it'll require some willingness to take the available info and run with it.

Since I'm sending one of my guys, there are five other spots available. I'll backwards-engineer the specific purpose of the mission they were on when captured to suit the skills/makeup of the team, so anyone can sign up regardless of division or combat ability.

If more than five people are interested I'll RNG, with the non-random exception that characters who are already getting some delicious October trauma in Nina's body horror plot will be the first bumped off to make room if necessary. (Not players! Just individual characters. And characters can double dip in Bad Times if there's room left without RNG stepping in.)

Sign up by September 27! That's in three days. We're zipping.

that's right nerds we got a quick turnaround on this one (thank u mods kisskiss)



WHO: Teren von Skraedder + 5 or 6 people, at least one of whom is a shardbearer

WHAT: Going to the Emerald Graves to close a rift or two, then getting caught in a terrible thunderstorm! And having to seek shelter in the only available building nearby!! Which is an abandoned mansion!! But is it empty?? (How many beds are there?!?)

Note 1: This will more or less follow the beats of the corresponding quest in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

(do not click that link if you haven't played it or forgot what happens and don't want spoilers)

Note 2: I would like to run this pretty rapid-fire through the month of October, keeping the party together and in several consecutive group threads. With this in mind, I would prefer that everyone who signs up be willing to tag the log once a day at minimum (obviously with exceptions as long as you communicate).

Please sign up by September 30th! I'll RNG (if necessary) and post the log on October 1st.

<b>Player:</b> <b>Character:</b> <b>Anchor shard?:</b> <b>Do you understand the tagging speed request and intend to follow it as best you can?:</b> <b>Do you solemnly swear to commit to the bit, that your character won't be a Tough Guy impervious to spooks and scares?:</b>
