HOUSE INITIATIVES: JAN
Welcome to the House Initiatives voting post!
☆ Any questions about the missions can be asked in the mod questions thread.
☆ Questions about the general game mechanics, setting or locations, or magic can be asked on their respective pages.
☆ To vote, just read the initiatives presented below and then reply to the comment header for the House your character wishes to vote for. Every character gets a vote.
☆ Initiatives will affect both events and the types of missions that are available and will be focused on as gamewide projects for the next two months, thereby allowing player characters to cause a concrete change to the world.
☆ HOUSE STONE proposes that the residents of the valley focus on securing the perimeter of the current grounds of the Ivory Castle, which has been under attack by various animals from the wilds outside the grounds. These animals have been stalking and attacking both people and some of the currently tamed animals living in pens built by residents near the edges of the grounds. Securing the perimeter would mean risking attack from these animals, but would provide protection for both residents and tamed animals via barricades and magical barriers. House Stone is suggesting that this initiative comes with a stipulation that participants try to avoid killing the monsters.
☆ HOUSE SUN proposes an in-depth study of the plants and animals in the area. This would involve scouting the surrounding land and taking extensive notes and samples of soil, plants, stones, moss, and other natural phenomenon as well as sketching pictures of wild animals. The initiative would necessitate groups of people spending several days out in the wilds gathering information, sketching, and living off the land, at risk of wild animals and exposure.
☆ HOUSE RIVER proposes that the residents of the valley focus on thoroughly scouting and mapping a new area of fertile land that looks like a promising area to start growing crops come spring. The area in question seems, from afar, to be a lush, flat area already growing some kind of thick grass, surrounded by thickets of trees perfect to use to build and for shelter. The area is about quite large - around 220 acres - just perfect for a small family farm. Scouting the area would mean risking exposure to wild animals, spending several nights out in the wilds, and mapping the area so that plans can be made to settle the area.
☆ HOUSE LIFE proposes an overhaul, inventory, and restocking of the greenhouses. This would mean going out into the wilds to find edible herbs, berries, tubers, and other plants that might be useful to the population and bringing back seeds to be planted in the greenhouses. It would also necessitate an inventory of the current plants in the greenhouses and possibly replanting and repotting existing plants to better facilitate their growth.
