The Vale Region / Re: An Off-the-Record Request [LLGD Initiation]
« on: February 16, 2018, 07:43:20 PM »
"I don't really get it, Lee," Lissa said as she sat down on the ground, pulling her legs in while staring up at Leona. "If that's what happened, shouldn't this be a great chance for you? We can stop the same thing from happening to someone else! That's what being a huntress is all about!" Lissa was once again beaming, trying to show Leona that this was okay. If her new team wanted to succeed, they would need their leader to be ready for anything.

...That and she didn't want to get in trouble.

How about this: The student body this year is large enough that Beacon simply could not accommodate all students in the first wave of initiations. That's why they're holding this special secondary event for the remaining students at an alternate location. I could have Crystal give the little introduction and then send us out on our own, separating us in the process. Maybe give some clue about what we're trying to find, how to locate it, and where to take it.

So, sort of a mix between the "traditional" initiation and the "special mission" initiation.

Alright, so that just leaves one last thing:
What do we want to do for initiation?

Alright, BADJ it is.
Now, DEX, were you planning to lead your own team, or should we pick a leader now? If we're picking our leader, I'm gonna go ahead and nominate Jacob, actually. He's got the smarts and the devotion to his team to make a good leader, and his potential anger issues could make for an interesting arc.

I don't understand what you're going for with that. Some foreign word?
I'm trying to work with first names but it's not really working out for me. Best I came up with was team "BSJM" (BassJam?) but that's kind of a stretch and also not a color.
If I factor in last names I'm left with more non-color names, like "SSMB" (Samba) and SSBM (Super Smash Brothers Melee).
One legitimate possibility is "BADJ" (Badge) with some copper or gold color.

Lissa tilted her head and pouted at the response by her teammates. "You guys could be at least a little happy, you know. Most teams don't get a proper mission this early on!" Swiftly moving towards her desk, Lissa removed her bag from her back and slung it over the chair. From the bag, she pulled a sheet of paper and showed it off around the room. "This is my copy of the mission details Ms. Evermore gave me. Take a look! Seems pretty fun, right?"

On the paper was plain text formally outlining the specifics of the task at hand. As was Crystal's style, not an inch of the paper was wasted on superfluous information or fancy formatting.
Student Mission
The following task is approved to be carried out under the supervision of Professor Crystal Evermore, who will be accountable for her students' safety until either a report of mission completion is received or the team is otherwise officially removed from the mission and returned to Beacon Academy.
This task is the sole responsibility of team LLGD (Lissa Lime, Leona Koningsblauw, Gray Saggio, and Graham Dylandy) and their supervising professor. Outside parties are prohibited from interfering unless explicitly instructed to do so. Any unauthorized interference by Beacon-affiliated individuals may be punished at the discretion of the Academy.

Objective Summary:
A group of nomads was cornered by Grimm in the ruins of Mountain Glenn. They have managed to find shelter and relative security in a building near the southern limit of the settlement for the time being, but it is uncertain how long the structure will remain secure. The student team is tasked with evacuating the nomads and destroying any Grimm that threaten them. Failing this, the team is to return a report on the situation whereupon the supervising professor will advise further action if necessary.

At the bottom of the page were two signatures, both equally illegible in unique ways. One, presumably Crystal's, was elegant and flowing with a flourish on the terminating "e;" the other, Lissa's, was hastily and scratchily written in a sad attempt at what she thought cursive script approximately looked like.

Oh, sorry, forgot to mention I don't really establish a posting order in threads I GM. Post when it feels natural, and if we need to enforce a strict order we'll just go with whatever order the first few posts come in. Whenever you're ready, you can feel free to post!

The thread is up.

And yes, I'm setting up some plot stuff for Crystal. Don't worry, the mission isn't totally a farce.

The Vale Region / An Off-the-Record Request [LLGD Initiation]

Lissa slammed open the door to her team's dorm room with such enthusiasm that she knocked a can of writing utensils off of the nearby desk. She dashed into the center of the room before performing a quick spin and flourish to grab everyone's attention, a beaming and deeply dimpled smile across her face from ear to ear. "Hey, hey! Guess what?" She looked around the room to make sure everyone was listening before continuing. "I just signed us up for a mission! A real one!"

--

Professor Crystal Evermore let out a resigned sigh she had been holding in since the bubbly youth first entered her office. Beggars can't be choosers, she supposed. Still, what was the headmaster thinking, choosing a wild and irresponsible girl like her to lead a team?

Not that it mattered. If worst came to worst, Crystal could handle this mission singlehandedly. She only needed to make it official so she would have an excuse to leave the academy. She retrieved the info that girl had left her... Lissa Lime of team LLGD. Much to her dismay, it seemed that first letter "L" did not, in fact, refer to Lissa. Their leader was, in fact, named Leona... What a careless mistake, one that Crystal mentally scolded herself for making. With some hesitation, however, she decided it was worth bending the rules just this once. After all, the four of them wouldn't be in any real danger. With her approval, team LLGD was good to go on their mission.

I just meant that we should use that as a baseline for brainstorming, I don't have nearly enough in mind to actually start a thread!
We should plan out what the mission objective will actually be and what point in the story we actually want to start, and then I don't mind working as a pseudo-GM from there. What I mean by that is, should we start with Lissa taking the request, Lissa telling the team about it, the team on their way to the mission location, or already on-site about to begin?

As for objectives, I'm supposing a rescue mission of sorts. Crystal mysteriously puts out a request for students to assist a group of faunus nomads who were supposedly cornered by Grimm near the ruins of Mountain Glenn. She keeps the details rather surface-level but reassures students that there will be staff in place to assist them should the task prove too dangerous for students alone.

Okay well, I don't have any definitive ideas but as a baseline, maybe we can work from this?
Crystal (my teacher character) puts out a request for a dangerous mission, one that she will oversee. If you want, Monster, we can throw in that your teacher will also be coming along to make sure the students don't get hurt.
Lissa carelessly accepts the mission on the team's behalf, not even running it by the others first. She just assumes they would all go along with it and gets overly excited.

Alright, on second thought, might as well discuss it here.
So, the main ways to work out an initiation would be to either seek out a GM and do the initiation the way they want to, or do a "first mission" type thing where we're already a team but we just have to get used to working like one. So the things we really need to discuss are A. Can we run it without a GM and B. Do we want to do a traditional initiation or not?

Bear in mind, if we decide not to bring in a GM I do have a Beacon teacher that could run it.
