Bounty Board
Remember: Hunting monsters can get dangerous, so we suggest tackling those jobs in groups of two to four."
To attempt one of the bounties, comment to this post, specifying the bounty in question, other party members you'll be taking along, and any further requested or relevant details.
If the bounty states Moderated Log not required, you can put up a log to play out the events with all involved participants at your own discretion; if it states Moderated Log required, you will need to play out a series of events led by one of the mods, so make sure you can commit the time to doing it!
Bounties and expeditions may be taken by a single group of up to five people, and characters can undertake new bounties and expeditions once every three days.
For the month of July, completing at least one bounty will earn 50 experience!
Hot In Herre
Requester: AMBITIOUS ALCHEMIST
Location: Concord Spellcraft Guild
I'm told there's a mysterious rock or crystal of some kind that heats up nonliving matter in proximity; it sounds like a fantastic substance for study! I'm willing to pay handsomely for a few nice, big pieces of it. You'll find it in the Crater in this new Shard to the north. The fact that you won't be able to wear anything while transporting it won't be too much of a problem, right?
Reward: 1600 Sol per sample (one per person, please!)
[Moderated Log not required; just log out the awkward escapades that result! Each participant needs 3+ posts to receive credit.]
Coming Up Next
Requester: INSPIRED IMPRESARIO
Location: The Glistering Estate
I'm putting together a block of some shows for the coming weekend, and my audience is growing weary of the usual performances about mysteries and monsters and knights. Then it hit me: I'll put up short shows written by the illustrious Starfallen, and maybe even acted out by them! Why don't you all send me some scripts, and we'll see what we can do?
Reward: 1200 Sol
[Moderated Log not required: Just put up a log or description of its performance. Hopefully you don't mind your fellow Starfallen judging it....]
Welcome to Flavortown
Requester: GRANDIOSE GASTRONOME
Location: Laourn
As The Pit's chief tender, I'm not just the mayor to a village of flavor; I'm the lookout on the S.S. Delicious on her search for new and righteous dishes and delights. Why don't you Starfallen give me YOUR recipes? If I get enough, maybe I could even make an anthology! "Flavors of the Starfallen" has a nice ring to it, don't you think?
Reward: 1000 Sol
[Moderated Log not required; just post the recipe to the Liber Nuntiorum. It can be as realistic, fantastical, plausible, or nonsensical as you see fit. Just bear in mind other Starfallen may have their own thoughts on it...]
Hang On Tight
Requester: BOLD BOULDERER
Location: The Outlands
That weird bunch of moving floating rocks may be gone for now, but that's no reason to get rusty with your skills-- or for us to slack off on making the tools you need! We've made some subtle improvements to the retractable paraglider and grappling slinger we'd like to put into practice. You and your friends could even hold races with each other! How about giving us a test on the old obstacle course?
Reward: 400 Sol
[Moderated Log not required; just log out the high-speed escapades that result! Each participant needs 3+ posts to receive credit.]
Well, This Is Awkward
Requester: UNCOMFORTABLE UNDERSTUDY
Location: Not specified
I'm from a well-known and legitimate publication that specializes in tantalizing gossip about the recent goings-on, and... our lead editor and writer seems to have vanished off the face of the shard after one of his usual nights of belligerent drunkenness. If you can write up a snappy, scandalous headline and a tantalizing paragraph about recent events or especially the Starfallen, we'll pay you well for it.
Reward: 1200 Sol
[Moderated Log not required; just DM it to the mods!]
Many Layers
Requester: BOHEMIAN BARISTA
Location: Concord
I'd like to give a special gift to whoever is able to master ten classes. Respond to this posting if you manage to pull it off.
Reward: Not specified
[Not eligible for EXP rewards!]

Show Me Your Moves
Ralsei | Ascetic (Demonstrating hand-to-hand and sparing)
Cecil | Paladin (Demonstrating the Five Forms of Destruction)
Red | Lancer (Demonstrating his own flavor of aerial combat)
no subject
As Adah steps up for her showing, the man seems far less intrigued by the aerobatic combat on display- leave it to a Dragoon to have tussled with all manner of flying beast- but laser-focused on Adah's lucent weaponry. The team can almost see the numbers and angles floating about his gaze, as well as the possibilities and logistics of what it would take to get a set of his own. Once Adah finishes her demonstration, she's given a stoic, thoughtful nod and little else. It nonetheless has the feel of a passing grade.
Ralsei steps forward, immediately launching into a practiced series of katas taken straight from the walls of Laourn. The techniques of the Outlands may be only a few months old to Concord, but brawling does little to impress the stony-faced captain; his demonstration of pacification, however, earns the high praise of a thoughtful stroke of the man's chin- likely because of the increasing interest the guild's Cavaliers and Monster Hunters have had in live capture of monsters for study. He, too, earns a nod.
The arrival of a Paladin has the the man seeming particularly stern- perhaps some of that inter-guild rivalry on display- but Cecil's use of the Five Forms catches him off-guard enough to raise his eyebrows, though it may be out of justifiable concern for Cecil's well-being. It doesn't have the look of magic nor the subtlety, and who doesn't appreciate a flamboyant high-risk finisher? Whoever they are, they definitely aren't a Lancer. It takes him some time to mull over the details, but a nod is sent Cecil's way.
Then Red shows up and opens with a mech-mounted aerial piledriver.
Suffice to say, the team walks away with their 800 sol. Not too shabby for an hour's work.
Addendum: The next day, Adah receives a message delivered via courier. It's a personal letter of recommendation, seemingly suggesting she join the ranks of the Lancers. Red grumbles about having never gotten one of those.
