To make the afternoon go by more quickly, you are all going to be assigned to cases. These cases work like collabs. You will PM/DM me for roll requests as needed, but you have a lot more free reign. Please look below to see what cases your characters have been assigned to. It will include the goal of your case, as well as how much time you have allotted to complete it. 

	My intention is that we have one round of cases, then transition into the wedding of Bruce and Myth. Characters do not have to attend the wedding of course - but it is a public wedding. If you do not attend the wedding, enjoy the continuation of your personal storylines! 

[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Tavern Brawl
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Discuss what you learned from Nera and plan your next move
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Party bonding time!
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Arnora Skadidottir, Jazen Grimspound Dyrki, Ahote Proudstar
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Minerva Frost, Bartender, Various Patrons  
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]	The [i]Aricie[/i] is still undergoing repairs and according to Harlianne, it won't be until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest that they'll be able to leave the Port. No other vessels have open spots for passengers so you are going to have to either wait for repairs to finish or decide to continue your adventure at the Castle by foot. It's about midday but daylight won't last much longer due to the time of year and where you are in the world, so eventually, your party finds itself inside [i]the Wicked Maiden[/i] - the rowdiest and most highly recommended tavern at Port. 

[color=B8675D]"I'll have a Dragon's Kiss,"[/color] Minerva said, looking over the menu of exotic drinks. She hadn't divulged with Grimspound just what exactly was so important she would be willing to burn a historical home filled with ghosts to the ground for. 

Here are the most popular items that the tavern serves, along with cost: 

[list][*]The Kingslayer - two different types of whiskey, butterschnapps, and goldschlager - [b]1 shilling 8 pence[/b]
[*]The Dragon's Kiss - Blood oranges, lemon, lime, vodka, and sugar - [b]1 shilling 5 pence [/b]
[*]Witch's Poison - Green [b]FizzFroot[/b], Vodka, Ice, [b]Poppers[/b], [b]Adrenalyne[/b] - [b]1 shilling 7 pence[/b]
[*]Standard Ale - [b]5 pence[/b] 
[*]House Whiskey - [b]6 pence[/b] 
[*]Blood Wine - [b]7 pence[/b]
[*]Mystery Juice -[b] 1 shilling 5 pence[/b][/list]
Please send a starter for the case in a PM including everyone involved. Message me on discord in the chat groups I'll set up for rolls as needed.[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] The Dark Knight Returns
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Retrieving a [b]Questing[/b] Stone 
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Find a cure for Fayard 
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Rhys Asher
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Ernie; Various as needed
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]	Ernie looked at Rhys, flabbergasted. "What is it with you and pulling me into alleyways?!" Ernie exclaimed. While he had been genuinely glad to see Rhys last time, this entire routine was getting a bit old. "Ya can't keep doin' this, mate... If I were you, I'd just go talk to Miss Rincewind. She's a bit cold but I think she'd go easy on you," he said, shoving his hands into his pockets. "Especially with that boy of hers always around... Muller or something..."

Since it's just you, message me for rolls as you need them and responses from Ernie as needed. [/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Something Wicked This Way Comes
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Tend to your fallen 
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Find a cure for the [b]Sickenesse[/b] and plot the downfall of Queen Valda 
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Fleur La Mallificum
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Assorted witches 
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Princess Meadow nodded. She was quite weary after long travel to this place from the Lagoon. "Of course. I am going to go collect my thoughts and rest - may peace be with you," Meadow told the Witch Messiah. She was then escorted by one of Fleur's helpers to a place where she might sleep. 

Of course, Fleur's life is hardly easy. Another helper comes and informs her that two more of succumbed to the disease: a young witch named Aphrodite and an older witch by the name of Sherry. A few more seemed to have worsened in condition and there was also detection of activity at their old home at Port. So many threads to pursue, so little time....Time for Fleur to get her house in order! 

Since it's just you, message me for rolls as you need them and responses from NPCs as needed.[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Uneasy Lies the Head that Wears a Crown
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Princess Luna's Secret was revealed 
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Figure out the next steps for the Royal Family 
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Amarantha (526), Queen Valda, Princess Luna
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Hopefully none
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]We are doing a bit of a timeskip here to get the crowd out of the room. Prince Myrus was taken over to his room and he continues to sleep, making no real improvements but also not getting any worse. Arya is dressed in the borrowed clothes from Queen Valda, since they're about the same height and build. The ExtraOrdinary Wizard then went to Prince Myrus' room in order to give the royals space and to study his condition. 

Anyways, wrap it all up in here. You all have a lot to discuss. 

Please send a starter for the case in a PM including everyone involved. I'll be making us a little discord group for roll requests.[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Nature or Nurture 
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Study Prince Myrus' condition
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Cuyler needs to meet his mother
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Cuyler Eysteinsson, Arya Rincewind, Myrus Silvers, Skaoi Silverveil
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] The All-Mother
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Myrus was moved to his room, and as mentioned in the previous description, Arya was given a dress of Queen Valda's to wear. She looks very regal in it, enough that some of the ghosts stop and stare, confusing her for a Castle Queen for a moment. The four of them are in Myrus' room and Arya is seated, looking over the sleeping prince, and trying to figure how she might be of assistance. 

Please send a starter for the case in a PM including everyone involved. I'll make a chat for us on discord for rolls. Include [@BlueSky44] in the PM as well, since she is controlling an important NPC for this one. [/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Rock Bottom  
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Skaoi gave her a list of chores to do 
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Frightening Rainbrook
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Lyra Laurek
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Various ghosts
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Rainbrook looked at Lyra for a moment, his head tilting to the side like a confused dog. He wasn't really sure if she had meant it just to be polite, if she was blowing off chores, or if she was interested in him. Romantically. He wished that his dad had given him more advice in this arena - his mother, well, sometimes he found it was a miracle she even took her nose out of a book in order to meet his father. "Uh...." Rainbrook stammered, tripping over his legs as he moved backwards and fell to the floor. 

Then Skaoi came out and gave Lyra a list of chores, disappearing but not before suggesting Lyra was looking for a husband. He didn't know what to say or do as he picked himself up, but one thing came to mind. "I'm so terribly sorry, miss...I think I'm gay."

Case wise - This is very much up to you. Lyra has essentially been given a list of chores. The ExtraOrdinary Wizard is in with the Prince, Skaoi, and her boyfriend. Amarantha is inside with the Princess, Queen, and Tristan. Will Lyra wait patiently? Will she do her task? Or is she going to...well, go wander off? Send me your progress as you go in this collab and ask for rolls and responses. Depending on what Lyra does, this could get intense...[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] The Banner Family
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Meet and greet
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Get ready for the wedding
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Bruce Banner, Myth the Muse
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Astrid Banner, Halley Banner, Runa the Goddess of Lies, Lance Banner, Nova Banner
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Bruce's last sister, Nova, is going to show up in this collab. Now, you all have been doing introductions for a while and I imagine it's getting old. In this case, you need to wrap up all of those - grab whatever clothes you need to bring with you - and head to Wizard Tower. There's a space there for you two to get ready in, so Myth just needs to grab her bag filled with wedding supplies. All of the heirlooms and whatnot required for the ceremony are already there. 

So please...Get to Wizard Tower before this collab is up. Antonije, Sylvi, and the twins will be traveling separately. 

Please send a starter for the case in a PM including everyone involved. Message me on discord in the Banner family chat for rolls as needed.[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Moody Millennials 
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Get ready for the wedding
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Figure out what Antonije is planning
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color] Sylvi the Bard, Antonije Magnisky 
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] The Twins
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Antonije and his siblings are down in the basement. They're clearly keeping something from Sylvi. Figure out what it is and also, make sure you get ready for the wedding. Get to Wizard Tower before the collab is over or risk the wrath of Myth and Bruce! You will be traveling separately - since otherwise this case would be too confusing for me as the GM tbh. 

Please send a starter for the case in a PM including everyone involved. Message me on discord or in a separate PM for rolls as they are needed.[/hider]
[color=ed145b][b]Case Name:[/b][/color] Home Alone
[color=ed145b][b]Lead Reason:[/b][/color] Tristan is Bored/Confused? 
[color=ed145b][b]Secondary Reason:[/b][/color] Very free form
[color=ed145b][b]Player Characters:[/b][/color]Tristan Alvissen
[color=ed145b][b]NPCs:[/b][/color] Various as needed
[color=ed145b][b]Time:[/b][/color] 10 Days Real Life - 4 Hours IC
[hider=Details]Once more, this is really up to you. Tristan is off by himself. So you get to be the master of your own destiny. I don't know what to do with him at the moment or what you are intending for him to do next so... Have fun! Send me your progress as you go in this collab and ask for rolls and responses. Depending on what Tristan does, this could get intense...[/hider]

And since why not...[b]Sickenesse[/b] notes have been updated. We have a lot more deaths now.
