WHAT
As new housing options become available for those affiliated with the Inquisition, Lady Vauquelin (along with the Duke de Coucy, and Morrigan's Kieran) will be relocating to a Hightown home where she will make her base. At roughly the same time, an increase in missing elves from the Kirkwall alienage will be becoming noticeable to anyone who cares to notice - though, who cares to notice some more missing elves, right? Certainly not Gwenaëlle, noted asshole; but increasingly suspicious behaviour of her Hightown neighbour will draw her attention, eventually requiring the aid of the Inquisition in investigating the increasingly likely prospect that the man next door is a Tevinter slaver acting as a spy for Corypheus. The ideal outcome? His living capture, a boon to the Inquisition and a PR opportunity to prove that they will work thoughtfully and methodically and without upending Kirkwall.

So try not to upend Kirkwall in the process.

See THIS POST for the full introductory breakdown and signups. Signups to investigate missing elves are CLOSED; signups to investigate shady Hightown dudes are still open.

CHECKING IN
HELLO THERE, LET'S BRAINSTORM. I'm checking in to see if there's still interest in continuing this plot and what would best enable people to do so! The way I've set it up is aimed at people figuring out what they want to do & how their characters will proceed, and I can provide information and assistance based on that; how it moves forward depends on what people choose to pursue and how they proceed.

If you're still interested, what would you like from me in order to move forward? What appeals to you about the plot, what works for you, what would you like your characters to do? Let us brainstorm.

THAT'S A LOT OF COMMENTS, WHAT'S THE HAPS

QUICK LOOK:

team yakety stealth (ellana, yngvi) pursue suspicious individuals to gather intelligence.

team kindergarten cop (myr, kit, sina) rescue some abandoned children, what the fuck happened here.

team the watch books (wren) will begin hightown adventures.

to be added to as plans firm up.

oh no definite bad end, yes, let's not.

Quite good at both; he is much less harmless than he appears and still has many of those sweet knight-enchanter skills if he's got to get himself out of harm's way and/or end someone rightly should things take a turn for the worse.

Although the "targeted" bit he may need a spotter for. NEVERTHELESS, I am intrigued.

[elegiaque]

You wanna rescue some babies, my man.

[faithlikeaseed]

heck yeah

don't hand him a baby though he has no idea what to do with one

[elegiaque]

Did you say definitely make sure Myr has to hold a baby

Because that's what I heard.

[faithlikeaseed]

He'll stand there holding it like he's terrified he's going to drop it which as we all know is the guaranteed way to drop baby.

[elegiaque]

I wanna see Kit do a combat roll to catch a baby I will be real with you

[faithlikeaseed]

YES LET'S.

[faithlikeaseed]

OKAY UH

I ALSO HAVE A NEED

For Myr to have cause to telefrag somebody in here.

for reasons.

awful reasons.

so if that can be done it would be rad.

[elegiaque]

what is a telefrag!!

[faithlikeaseed]

killing a dude by teleporting into them

it's pretty rad

also pretty chunky

[elegiaque]

it's probably the wrong plot for it alas :( this is a very low combat plot and the goal is minimal death

(think atmospheric noir mystery rather than action adventure. ~forget it, myr, it's hightown~)

[faithlikeaseed]

That is totally fine then! I did not know at how much risk our guys would be and whether that kinda thing might be necessary.

(awwww mannnnnn but they're slaveeeers)

[elegiaque]

it's ok they will get what's coming to them :]

[faithlikeaseed]

okay :| good enough for me

[elegiaque]

it's just that to get there you have to investigate and not murder unwitting accomplices 8)))))

[faithlikeaseed]

[sad whine] can't I murder one of them

accidentally

when he runs into my spirit blade nine times

[elegiaque]

i mean yes

but then all the elves in his house get slaughtered when he pulls the plug on the operation and books it because he can tell you're onto him

[elegiaque]

also killing random kirkwall residents who may not have known what they were involved in when you can't prove what they might have been involved in will definitely get you in trouble.

[faithlikeaseed]

ahahaha bad end

I think I am coming off more bloodthirsty in jest than Myr would ever be in actual play. XD
