[Faction] The Forged 🎇

[Woe]

Thread: Fright Night
Type of Forged: Soul-Forged: Woe, Song-Forged: Zoro, Ice-Forged: Praetorum, Elisabeth, Doran, Fire-Forged: Balthazar.
Participants: Woe, Zoro, Rei'sari, Praetorum, Elisabeth, Doran, Balthazar, Cad, Alistair.
Brief description of thread: Some folks attend a strange party full of ghosts, costumes, dancing and intrigue.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: Not sure if it really helped much, so much as a few of us ended up pledging to help with the search for Raine's lost daughters. I figured I'd slap this up here.

	Thank you for posting this here. The Fright Night thread itself doesn't gain you points - but I can confirm that following up that plot / finding out about the daughters / etc - certainly will

[Darius Baer]

Thread: I Walk The Line
Type of Forged: FireForged.
Participants: Darius Baer with Lars (settlement NPC) and Marvin (barony NPC).
Brief description of thread: Darius, Lars, and Marvin set about making the road between Smooglenuff Manor and Hopetoun safer. They do this by repairing part of the road, finding a place of shelter for future travellers, and fighting off some bandits.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: This should (in theory) result in safer travel between the manor and the settlement, and add a degree of security to both locations.

Following on from the consequence from the above thread, the following three threads were created...

Thread: 'Ottery Shards, An-ot'er Dread Otter Thread, Ambush At Otter Cove
Type of Forged: FireForged.
Participants: Darius Baer with a handful of NPCs, including Lars and Kirt from Hopetoun, and five new followers.
Brief description of thread: Darius and company hear word that the Dread Otter is near the settlement, so they head out to fight them off. The sea action is brief and indecisive, but the Libertalia does succeed in scaring the pirates off and protecting their fishing boats. Later, they hear that the pirate sloop might be returning to the settlement, and they head out to find them. Eventually discovering the pirates careening their ship in a secluded cove, an ambush is launched and the pirates are defeated once and for all.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: The Faldrass coast is no longer subject to raids from the crew of the Dread Otter. This of course serves the Hopetounians well, but also the other nearby villages over which Darius is not officially protector. Hopefully, it also deters others from taking up piracy around this part of the Faldrass coast.

Following on from the above trail of threads, the following thread was created...

Thread: The Arrrraignment Arrrrangement
Type of Forged: FireForged.
Participants: Darius Baer with a handful of NPCs, including Lars from Hopetoun, and his four surviving followers.
Brief description of thread: Darius takes two captured pirates to the courtroom, and pleads for clemency.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: With the pirate attacks taken care of, Darius is further protecting Hopetounians and the Faldrass coast by showing that those who are sincere in wanting to make amends can do so. The extreme opposite - punishing the pirates with vigilante justice, for example - would likely make attackers less likely to surrender as they would see no alternative to death.

Thread: All Hands On Deck
Type of Forged: FireForged.
Participants: Darius Baer with Yeva of Rharne and the crew of the Libertalia.
Brief description of thread: Darius takes a ship load of Faldrass refugees in the immediate wake of the eruption.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: This is an example of Darius directly helping/saving Scalvorians. This is probably one of Darius' first FireForged acts.

	Approved! 4 Fire Forged Points (2 for thread, 2 for collab) - you now have 66!! ✔

[Woe]

Thread: Winter's Whisper
Type of Forged: Soul-Forged
Participants: Woe
Brief description of thread: Woe gets a flute made of whistle wood commissioned, and helps keep the grieving woman warm near her shrine in the Sweetwine. He tries to give her some light psychological therapy while he does so.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: He's only helping one person here, and in the process, asking her to carve something special for him. A whistlewood recorder. He speaks to the Tree and the plants in the Garden of Lost Echoes.

!	Message from: Pegasus
	Approved! 2 Soul Forged Points - you now have 22. Your diri tells you that the Induk would like you to help more people than just one, but Sod says that everyone has to start small!! ✔

Sincere apologies for the delays here.
Please note that there is a new metric - Diri Relationship.
Those of you in this faction please note this is a new aspect of the Forged which has not been explored previously. While that is now OOC knowledge, please be aware of it not being IC knowledge and play your PCs appropriately.

[Darius Baer]

Thread: It's About Damn Time
Type of Forged: FireForged
Participants: Darius Baer and Elisabeth Angelus
Brief description of thread: The two settlement leaders meet and agree to work together for all settlers. They also agree to contribute to building a road between Haven and the Hopetoun/Barony road so that settlers can travel more easily and safely.
Make your case! If you're protecting or saving Scalvorians or Scalvoris in some way, great! But if not - how does it impact the Induks? How is it impactful?: To be honest, I think this is more of an 'intent' to benefit the settlers in a more tangible way (by constructing the road) but there is also that intangible improvement that is formed by the two settlements agreeing to work together for the betterment of each other. Maybe news of this co-operation puts the settlers at ease!

!	Message from: Peg
	Thank you for posting this but you are correct in that it is an "intent" thread. Induks are about doing!

[Kisaik]

Thread: A Shellter Against Outrageous Fortune
Type of Forged: Song Forged
Participants: Darius Baer and Kisaik
Brief description of thread: Kisaik pledges his fellowship of knights to protect Hopetoun, and shows him where they live, Shellknight Lodge. Darius beats a Drawer Dragon.
Make your case! Kisaik had no hand in the defense from the Drawer Dragon, but he promised to protect Hopetoun in the future.

!	Message from: Peg
	Approved! Kisaik you gain +4 Song Forged points (2 for the thread, 2 for collaboration). This brings your total to 18! I have added tags to the thread.

[Kisaik]

Thread: Waylaid by Chaos
Type of Forged: Song Forged
Participants: Devin Thorn and Kisaik
Brief description of thread: Kisaik blasts the magic out of Devin with a chaos bolt. He promptly, with no small amount of contrition, begins caring for the Baron and making sure he's alright. Devin invites him to stay at the Manor.
Make your case! Spirits don't seem to like magic, and Kisaik blasted the magic out of Devin, the Baron of Smooglenuff. Maybe they think kindly of him for it?

!	Message from: Peg
	Thank you for submitting this but it wouldn't gain Kis any points. The Induk is about doing good for Scalvoris, and accidently blasting magic out of someone doesn't garner its attention.

Up to date!

Please note that I am using topic-tags to identify threads which have been given Forged Points. Any thread given Forged Points will now appear in this list of threads with the "Forged Points" tag

When you see the list, you'll be able to see who was in it - and which type of forged got points.

Please remember - post individually to claim points - it just helps me if you do that. Thanks!

Thread: A Shellter Against Outrageous Fortune
Type of Forged: FireForged
Participants: Darius Baer and Kisaik Ciuruọrun sọ Kufuata Karo
Brief description of thread: Kisaik requests permission from Darius to establish a knight order. (Permission granted! ) Then, a whistle mishap leads to a drawer dragon going on the rampage, and Darius single-handedly defeats it.
Make your case! Darius makes use of FF abilities in this thread to defeat the drawer dragon. Most notably, he uses the Limit Breaker ability as a FF to use an Ice Forged ability. What will happen?! Find out tomorrow...same diri-time...same diri-channel!

Message from: Peg

Approved! This thread has the following consequences: Darius gains +6 Fire Forged Points (4 for the thread, 2 for collaboration). This makes your new total 72 ✔ Darius gains +1 Diri Relationship. This makes your new total 3 ✔. This gives you a new Relationship Rank: Darius and Katara are now bonded. Please see this post and the new section re: Relationship for what that means. While Katara is gone, Darius has moments of anxiety - sudden-onset and without any apparent reason he'll feel afraid or nervous or anxious. When she gets back, Katara experiences the same. This will last for 2 full Cycles (although it will slowly decrease during this time) and will be helped by spending time together.
