Missons/Assignments for Fall 518
Missions and Assignments for The Black Sun, Ebonstryfe and the City Guard will be presented in a different form starting in Fall of 518. This thread will list available assignments/missions that can be claimed. Each will have its own requirements and some will be available to all while others will be on a first claim basis. These are basically miniature writing challenges that may also count as Job Thread requirements.
One must meet the listed requirements in order to take on one of these missions/assignments just as they must meet the listed requirements to find success in their choice.
Rewards for completing assignment/mission threads and meeting the requirements for success will be listed with greater detail given upon success.
In order to claim a mission, post in this thread which one you wish to undertake. When you have completed the thread, link it to your original claim post for review. If you meet the requirements and succeed, listed rewards will be granted.
If a mission has a Claim Status of Open, that means that it is open for anyone to claim even if someone else has already claimed it. An Open Claim Status followed by a (number) indicates how many times a single character may perform said assignment/mission. Other types of Claim Status will be added as needed. Additional assignments/missions may appear at any time throughout the season.
With every successful mission comes the greater chance for promotion or elevated status in one's given group.
The mission/assignment format is as follows:
Title -- Name of the Mission/Assignment
Assignment Details -- What the assignment is all about; what is being asked for or what is needed to be done overall.
Requirements -- Certain criteria that must be met in order to both claim the assignment as well as have it considered a success.
Reward -- What one gets for successfully completing the assignment.
