Week 2 Exploration Sign-Up.

[powersthatbe]

As your characters search the island for clues and the means to survive, please comment under the toplevels below to indicate which square you're exploring. In the body of your comment, please list any relevant skills or abilities that will help you search faster, more accurately, or more thoroughly, such as Control Panel, Questing Sense, Survivalism, etc.



A, B, D, & E are fully explored. That leaves I, J, K, & F immediately accessible, with some exploration already done in F and J. C & G are accessible by anyone using air or water travel.

TOPLEVELS WILL GO UP TOMORROW FOR SIGN-UP (once I know what percentage of F & J are explored).

P

[capital_asset]

Raidou's Questing Sense is taking him to the warehouses in sector P.

Relevant skills: Great Kohryu. Anyone want to hitch a ride on a giant talking dragon?

Besides that, he's got both Sensory and Somatic Conditioning to enhance his senses/strength, his wraithwolf abilities (animal communication may or may not be useful here, depending on how many feral animals are hanging around and how talkative or knowledgeable they may be), and a combo of Perfect Recall, Advanced Mnemonics, and Sensory Livestreaming, if it becomes necessary to pass along something he sees. And if there's anything supernatural at all, he can see it/talk to it/fight it as needs dictate.

His demons can set things on fire, freeze things, light up dark areas, cast a spell that illuminates items that may be important, and hit obstacles until they move and/or break; Moh Shuvuu can also scout for potential hazards, but she has a tendency to get lost. In addition, Inugami has a battery of healing spells, and I think Jack Frost has Finders Keepers, which lets him find random trinkets that may or may not actually be useful.

Natsumi will be accompanying him on top of Kohryu! And maybe they can get to talking about Questing Sense further?

Sure!

[powersthatbe]

With only two people, tracking down the source of the ping in P is going to take a second week - lots of exploring warehouses, many of which are still full of goods, whose shipping & expiration dates define a window of about 2 months after the travelers were last here in which everyone must have vacated the island.

It also brings up another obvious question - with a force bubble around the island, how are goods shipped in?

[powersthatbe]

Nevermind, with other folks chipping in on P, you'll get a complete search! Data pending shortly.

Q

[neverfeltthatway]

Imriel and Melissa, at least, will be going up into the mountains in Q.

Re: Q

[powersthatbe]

Got it! Q will take more than one week for two people to fully explore, but it's a semi=active volcano with a large caldera. Not much dangerous fauna gets up this high, but there are still occasional creepers. From the peak, it's possible to see the whole city, more or less.
