[ ARCHIVED ] NPC Scheduler
Replacing our original NPC inbox, we are going to use an "appointment book" type set-up to help making NPC plotting and threading easier for everyone all around.
The following NPCs are available to be threaded with:
Rebbekah
Lindsy
Ledwika
Sergei
Feofan (Theasthai)
Sophia (Theasthai natively, though technically still in Verens)
Given the current low frequency of NPC threads, we are going to just keep all threads on this post! Be it network or log type, we can thread it out here unless requested otherwise.
So without further ado, fill out the following form. It's formatted in a "letter" type as that would be the only way characters can initially communicate and reach the NPCs.

[She got derailed so hard she has to take a second to figure out what Red is asking.]
The crystals and otherworlders? [...Oh. ...Oh, hmm.] I did look into trying to compare the data I had of the samples from before, but the only real way to know is if an otherworlder actually tried to align with it.
no subject
[ As off the rails it might've sound, it was actually relevant, promise. ]
I wanted to know if the reason we couldn't use the crystals in the mountain had something to do with Simpathis, and how she's been keeping this place safe. [ The fact it might've been such an odd thing to ask though, he pulls a sheepish face. ]
I...had to get a new crystal recently, and I was curious. [ Anyway! ] But this means wherever Empatheias used to be below... it wasn't far from that mine?
no subject
As for where our little floating home is from, it's possible but can't really say for sure. You'd need dirt samples for that, and I'm no geologist.[Only rocks she studies are the crystals, alas.] So we still could be somewhere else, but maybe within the same region.
no subject
I was starting to think those machines we found were imports after all. [ That was a possibility Rebbekah brought up before, wasn't it? ] Thras thinks Shaarnath used to be Simpathis's land in the past too, but when I used dunamis in the mines and outside the city in a test, they reacted pretty different.
Did you see what happens if something grows down there?
no subject
But I did! It was so fascinating—did things turn to crystal for you, too?
no subject
[ And Rebbekah is the crystal person, not the land person. And crystals is what he has, remembering the envelope in his hold and coming closer,pulling out the flap from its tucked place. ]
This doesn't have anything to do with Simpathis, kinda, but I got some crystals for you. We found these near what looked like an old shrine... uhh, where would you like them? They're broken up, so...
[ He's looking for a clear spot, but at the same time, he'd rather wait to pull out the contents for an indication of where she'd prefer them than just dumping them anywhere. ]
no subject
[It's said in good humor as she laughs and notices him searching for a place to put the crystals. Which...is a good question.]
Hmmm, oh, I know! Hold on.
[She'll hurry over to a roll-away cart, clear it off, and then pull it over to him.] Just put them here!
So are these from Shaarnath? Or Theasthai? Or both—sorry I lost track of where you said you went.
no subject
This was outside Theasthai, a few hours away-- on unaligned land! [ He looks away from the crystals at that, since is that cool or what??? ] Daimonia told her rep about it, and we went to check it out. There were camps too, and we even found a map of the area with locations marked out! But here, these-- there were more, but how old do you think these could be? Because the camps we found, they couldn't have been as old as the war!
no subject
Oh gosh hold on, let me see— [She takes a couple of the crystals, gives them a quick once over, and then hurries to one of her many instruments.] This might take a little time, but I should be able to figure out at least a general date first. Getting a specific time will take longer.
no subject
And really, he can barely contain his own excitement, though he does down to making it simply warm around him, as he takes out what else was in that envelope. Rebbekah's moved, but that doesn't mean he can't ready the charcoal images made by Shun for later, sheets of paper with picture-perfect copies of the ruined outdoor shrine (similar to this) by a shore, the set of camps lined. There's a map too, and letters written in a hand close to Thespian... ]
One of the letters talk about a creature that sounds like Daimonia from the description, and they mention the air balloons they used at the mountain. We asked how long they've been running them once we got back, and it's been around fifty years! With that and the notes on the map, it has to mean people have been living out there even without the Arehtei! Just think about what that means!
[ Or don't, since Red even touching on the thought that much makes the trolley before him bucks and nearly sends everything flying, until he slams his hands down onto it with a yelp. It doesn't stop him for longer than a second before he continues on. ]
We have to check it out!
no subject
Rebbekah will listen as she carefully slides in a few crystals into different instruments. Why only do one at a time when you can multi-task?
But oh gosh—oh gosh—]
Oh my gosh, Red if that's all true—!!
[SUDDENLY TAKING HIS HANDS INTO HIS AND JUMPING UP AND DOWN.]
If there are other people that means there must have been ways to survive!! Maybe even places that wasn't as badly affects as initially believed! There could be other cities, hidden away—oh my gosh Red, have you told anyone else yet??
no subject
N-no, you're the first person I came to! You're the most official person I know! [ Sorry, but those lights--they're probably popping now. Rest in pieces because nobody cares right now. ]
Daimonia's people will take us there if we want to go again--and for free! [ Oh- ] Shun's going to talk to Daimonia, I'm sure they'll want to check it out too. But we can work together and investigate!
no subject
Oooooh I wish I could goooo uuuuuuggggggggh! [If she were Peromei she'd probably turn to goop if she could. In the meantime, various items around her are going to turn green in envy as well as a bit murky since she's also a bit in despair.]
If you find anyone you have to tell me! And take pictures and interviews and—just everything!
no subject
But here, Red's going to pause on all this excitement on his end, eyes widening some. ]
Me? But... shouldn't someone else go? What would I say?
[ Isn't this really too important, Rebbekah!? ]
no subject
What? [...Oh. Oh.] Oh, I suppose having some kind of spokesperson would be...logical... But ugh, they're all stuffy, they'd make anyone run away and not have anything to do with us!
No, definitely should be someone more normal&mdahs;someone fun!
[Clearly she thinks Red fits the bill. Somehow.]
But maybe not by yourself...they could be dangerous, too. Oh man, I wonder how people managed to live out there? [Gasp.] What if they're not even human? What if all the negativity actually managed to warp and transform how they look??
[You'd think she'd sound terrified, but no. She sounds excited.]
no subject
[ This is clearly not a normal question to ask, but.
Rebbekah?? ]
