It belongs in a Museum

​

Starting Date: Next week
Spots: 4-5
Difficulty: Beginner+
Requirements: Have less than 1000 MP, be cooperative, daily posting

​

The leader of the Ynglar Brotherhood, Juliette is looking for a team of brave adventurers to help her retrieve an item called the "Gem of Karzka," which is currently held in an underground cave inhabited by Goatmen.

These humanoids are highly sensitive to magic, which is why Juliette is specifically looking for novice-level adventurers to take up the quest.

The goal of the job is to explore the cave and figure out a creative way to retrieve the gem without dying.

This challenge will be using a dice-based freeform system I have used in the past. There is nothing mechanically unique about it so you don't have to worry about anything aside from roleplaying. Expect a mix of exploration, combat, and problem solving.

 

The Excavation

​

Starting Date: Early June
Spots: 3-4
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Requirements: Daily Posts, Cooperation, Creativity

Nigel Westfall simply cannot catch a break. Only months before, his estate in Dunnstads was swarmed by plague rats. Now, his mining operation in the nearby mountain range is being sabotaged. And the culprit? Well, if you ask the men themselves, they swear it is some kind of ghost.

With his business at stake, Mr. Westfall has once more put out the call for adventurers. Are you brave enough to explore the depths of the mountains, and face whatever lurks there?

This challenge will be faster paced, and slightly more difficult than its predecessor, The Extermination. Though it is a continuation, you are encouraged to join even if you did not participate in Part I! Expect a healthy mixture of free form roleplay, collaboration, and problem solving. It's choose your own adventure, Terrasphere style!

 

The Thief

Starting Date: Friday, May 25th
Spots: 5-8
Difficulty: Medium
Requirements: Daily Posts, Cooperation, Familiarity with the Dice System, Familiarty with the Action Sheet, Comfortability with New Mechanics

The Monster Hunter’s guild has received various reports of sheep, goats, horses, and other livestock being kidnapped within the Twisting Spire region of Astorea, specifically Aramoor Village.

The Village itself sits next to an old mining shaft that has been inoperative for years. Some citizens have reported that a creature of unknown origin leaves the mining shaft in the dead of night, comes to the village, makes off with their livestock and returns to the shaft before the sun rises.

All attempts to venture into the mines to combat this foe have failed. While there have been no causalities as of yet, many villagers have been wounded and ranchers are complaining that their yield for the coming winter won’t be enough to sustain a comfortable life for their families. No clear picture or description of the creature is available.

The League of Explorers has tasked the Monster Hunters Guild and those loosely affiliated to rid Aramoor Village of this creature once and for all. Please complete this task within the fortnight. Payment will be given upon completion of the contract.
