ORIGIN

HAI GUISE.

So, I have a few ideas for Children of Rot activity. I'm thinking of doing a group-wide monthly contest or task, as well as smaller games, contests and threads, in addition to the plot events.

Thing is, there aren't enough of us to do the really big things, so most of the huge events will need to wait. Here's some of my ideas thus far:

- Hunting: Gather food for Aquarian. This can be ongoing, but I'm not sure how to organize it--maybe a hunting thread overall, or individual ones. I intend to find a way to RP out prey animals that you lot will need to roll for to kill. I might even make a list of "special" or rare prey animals--specific individuals with special characteristics--that if you roll a crit while hunting, you can find and try to catch :3

- Preaching: Willow and sometimes even Dragon might hold little gatherings where we discuss philosophy. There'll be a lot of weird natural selection stuff, crazy cult brainwashing, and asking others for their input on various concepts and ideas. This will be about character development, not action.

- Sacrifices and Festivals: Willow and sometimes Dragon will likely end up creating big events to make offerings to Aquarian. These events will be something like a pagan ritual in summer: a big bonfire, crazy cult speeches, maybe things like hallucinogenic spores so everyone has crazy visions, and then a giant pile of corpses or even life sacrifices to Noodle Dad.

- Sparring: both physical and magical contests of skill, intended to hone and prepare the members of CoR for real hostile situations. This may, once we have enough numbers, take a sort of tournament format.

- Scouting/Preaching: Dragon may send a scout, accompanied by a bodyguard (or more) or not, to preach some of the philosophy of CoR and try to get more members. This will take the OOC form of Willow going to another group's territory and screeching insane nonsense to give them some fun, and maybe actually gather some groupless Gembound to Cetus on the way.

- Scavenger Hunts: (of a sort). I might have small monthly contests to send members outside Cetus to gather: 1. information on particular subjects or areas, 2. strange plants to bring back, grow & experiment with in Cetus, or rare foods or treasures for Aquarian; loose gems, pieces of armor, etc.

Any other suggestions are welcome! Please let me know what you think and poke me if you have any more ideas or criticisms, either on anything here or anything else. :3

@Ghanyarah @Eve @Talat @Czernobog

tal'at wants to make a smol garden in cetus

if he makes a lovely smol garden that attracts lesser gembound all the better

but also so he has some nice fruit and stuff to eat (along with anyone else who eats stuff other than meats)

i love all those ideas by the way. such hype.

Big pig can be a guard, and he can also gather plants (by growing them into his skin)! And if Tal'at makes a garden he can help grow it with his magic. :^O I'll update this post when/if I get ideas for events and such b/c I'm a big baby with none atm!

tal and big pig need to become friends. tal is v soft and gentle and it might be good for big pig

omg absolutely. 8^D They need to be best friendos and Tal can totally ride on his back + big pig needs a calming influence so he doesn't just end up a rabid beastie. <3
