xHello everyone!
I feel like I am just talking to myself here ... >.<.
Anyhoo, I'm just popping in to update you guys on a few things. I've updated the Calendar. Since I need to get some things approved for the big Quest, I am postponing it until spring, that is the next time it will fit better into the city's theme. Seasonal challenges are still the same, and mostly every event has stayed on the same date as well. However, I will encourage you to check out the Calendar just in case.
Also, this season I'll be doing a few things to focus on you guys. First off I am doing personal quests with people. Each of you has a modded thread ticket automatically. All you have to do is ask for a modded thread, you don't even need to have a plot idea, I am more than happy to come up with something dangerous fun for your characters! ^-^' Neither does this mean you've only got one modded thread ticket. Once we wrap up a modded thread, your ticket is automatically renewed and you are welcome to ask for another. All I ask is that I don't have three modded threads with a single person while the others are waiting for one. Get my drift?
Another thing I will be doing to focus on you guys is development. I do realize that there are a lot of holes and incomplete sections of our lovely city and I will work on patching those up. I'll mostly be plucking locations that need spicing up, and adding some ingredients and putting them back. The one I am working on at the moment is the Kalinor Research Facility. Edits and expansions are being made, and should be posted soon. Yes, it may take longer than a season to get a lot of the development done, but I hope to round out our caves pretty soon. That said, I welcome ideas and suggestions! I love it when you guys get involved, so if you want anything, location or NPC(s), just let me know! I'll create it for you, or you are welcome to create it for yourself. Either way, you are participating and that is my ultimate goal! Feel free to post your development ideas and projects here or pm them to me. If it is an idea and you don't mind sharing, I'd love for you to post it here so the other players can get involved and contribute their opinions and ideas as well.
I'd like to share something that I realize has never been written down. Those who live in Kalinor must be paying a living expense of at least Common or greater (135 gm/season). Since Kalinor is so small, the city makes sure that each of its citizens are cared for appropriately. Also, there is no such thing as homelessness because there is no place to be homeless except for in the abandoned sector. But this is very dangerous. Since this has never been written down before, no one will be penalized or have to change their ledger for past seasons paid at a poor living expense. From here on out the minimum LE is Common unless given special permission to have it differently.
Saving the best for last ... We have a new player! With a community as small as the one we got here in Kalinor, its not hard to find someone to thread with. Luckily for us, we've got quite a selection of characters and I can personally claim that you are all brilliant writers! So please welcome Cassidee, our new scientist!
