MEMBER & GUILD RANKING

New quests are released! Sign-ups will open officially on the 3rd of this month, so until then, here's a plotting post for you all to get your Duckletts in a row! Before we hop right into things, though, here are the tallies from total quest points!

Click here for the rankings!

⟡ MEMBER RANKING
ICly, Rankings will show the points earned of all Pokemon in guilds, including NPC Pokemon not listed here OOCly. We didn't list guild leaders this time, but might in the future for fun. Keep in mind that quests available to player characters are not the entire pool of quests, and that some are likely snatched up before they can get to them regularly, which is how points vary and how some guilds pull ahead even without much player help. However, over time, player points will certainly affect the standing of guilds! Without further ado, here are the characters in ranking order by guild:

AVAILABLE QUESTS

Remember - Players can submit their own quests, here!

OVER THE BRINK
QUEST TYPE: HEAVY
QUEST GIVER: Polteageist
CLAIM LIMIT: None
DIFFICULTY: ★★✩
THREAD REQUIRED?: Yes
DEADLINE: Must be submitted by APRIL 14th 11:59 PM EST.

We are facing an unprecedented circumstance as numerous Lum Researchers tasked with making contact with a Pokemon known as Decidueye have since gone entirely missing. Our witness and local guide, Chimecho, states that she was leading them through the area beyond the cliffs when they were set upon by a thick, heavy fog, not unlike what recently blanketed our forest region and bay. We have little understanding of what to expect. While Pokemon taking up this quest will be teleported in with the Lum's prototype room, after retrieving the Lum Research team, Pokemon must be prepared to make their own way back to the Bay through unknown and possibly dangerous terrain. Prepare for anything - adaptation will be key.

POINTS REWARDED: 300 points (200 points for failure)
EXTRA REWARDS?: Potential for plot information (if successful), risk of consequence (nothing to ever ruin your time in game).
NOTES: Please use the summary section to fill out how your character will prepare for this quest. Information on what the team will encounter will be presented in their reply. While we will use a super-secret rubric to decide success/failure based on later summaries, your beginning advice is to prioritize the potential to adapt to any given terrain.

GOING UP
QUEST TYPE: LIGHT
QUEST GIVER: Mightyena
CLAIM LIMIT: None
DIFFICULTY: ★✩✩
THREAD REQUIRED?: No
DEADLINE: Must be submitted by APRIL 25th 11:59 PM EST.

As reaching the mountains beyond the Spire is easier said than done, Spinarak has begun a city project to erect safe stairways and walkways along the cliffside to make it easier for future travellers. Please help them with either constructing, or gathering the necessary materials.

POINTS REWARDED: 100 points
EXTRA REWARDS?: None

NOT A MINIOR MATTER
QUEST TYPE: LIGHT
QUEST GIVER: Electrode
CLAIM LIMIT: None
DIFFICULTY: ★✩✩
THREAD REQUIRED?: No
DEADLINE: Must be submitted by APRIL 25th 11:59 PM EST.

Some of the rescued Minior from last month have been able to make their own way back to the sky, but others still need a little help. We need Pokemon to help construct two large catapults for launching Minior into the upper atmosphere... and others to man the devices when they're constructed! (Alternate methods of launching Minior are also welcome.)

POINTS REWARDED: 50 points
EXTRA REWARDS?: None.

DITTO TO THAT
QUEST TYPE: LIGHT
QUEST GIVER: Swellow
CLAIM LIMIT: None
DIFFICULTY: ★✩✩
THREAD REQUIRED?: No
DEADLINE: Must be submitted by APRIL 25th 11:59 PM EST.

Lately, there have been all kinds of Pokemon attacking the city from the cliffs! They seem to look different somehow, but that doesn’t make them any less dangerous! Please help fight them off!

POINTS REWARDED: 50 points
EXTRA REWARDS?: No.

STEEL YOURSELVES
QUEST TYPE: LIGHT
QUEST GIVER: Toxicroak
CLAIM LIMIT: None
DIFFICULTY: ★✩✩
THREAD REQUIRED?: No
DEADLINE: Must be submitted by APRIL 25th 11:59 PM EST.

With all the ongoing projects underway, we are finding supplies of metal running lower than originally anticipated. Join me in the caves under the Spire, and help to gather more minerals for smelting.

POINTS REWARDED: 50 points
EXTRA REWARDS?: No.

INCOMING EVENTS

With the recent Bounties revealing dire times for missing Lum Researchers, it’s no surprise that the town is preparing to avoid that kind of thing from ever happening again! But while rescues are underway, numerous unexpected Pokemon are flocking at the beaches from their winter homes. What are they doing here?

And for that matter, hey look! Lurantis has her reward ready!

Dolly

[autumnrainrunaway]

PLAYER INFO
PLAYER: Dolly
ABOUT: From the Mystical Lands of Wisconsin (it's a weather rollercoaster right now...)Currently in Easter prep mode, but after the Fifth, I should be back to normal and getting to work on that Dollhouse once more >:3c
CONTACT: Please feel free to reach me through my characters' journals or PP me over on Dolly_Mancer

Dolly Mancer

[autumnrainrunaway]

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Dolly Mancer
CANON: Original Character
POKEMON: Sylveon
GUILD: Lum Berry
INFO/PERMISSIONS: https://autumnrainrunaway.dreamwidth.org/2553.html
ABOUT:

Oh boy, time to condense this Fae Queen's background! Now, Dolly has been tossed about as of recently from her original home on Tir Na Nog, to Earth, then to Doriene by accident, and now the Pokemon World. After getting sorted into Lum Berry, Dolly has been having a pretty good and easy time adjusting with her guild mates along with getting glasses crafted for her. She's officially shaken off the scare from the dream share and is pretty close to normal...ish.

Heading into the personality department, Dolly most of the time, is pretty reserved in her own right, only letting loose her enthusiasm and excitement when something of her interests comes up. Dolly likes to keep calm and see if things can be talked through first before getting into fights. Dolly is very much full of wonder about the world around now that she is out for the first time. Sharing fun stories, especially ghost stories, are a very good way of getting Dolly to like people and in return will share stories that she knows of. Dolly is afraid of the dark thanks to where she came from and can get anxious at times. She can also sass a bit when the right buttons are pushed. The only time Dolly will fight is if she’s being threatened and even then, Dolly is the kind to hold back big time to avoid doing serious harm. Should be noted, Dolly likes to pun, a lot...

PLANS:

I am so down for the light quests for Dolly since she's still really REALLY uneasy about the Waystations...the Tiniest Sylveon has voiced her opinion on the matter and seen 'The Fly' one too many times. Your character is welcome to try and convince her though! If walking to the location is still an option instead of the teleporting, then Dolly will be a bit easier about going on the heavy quest.

ANYTHING ELSE:

Catrina Calavera

[gimmeeyeballs]

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Catrina Calavera
CANON: Original Character
POKEMON: Litwick
GUILD: Oran Berry
INFO/PERMISSIONS: https://gimmeeyeballs.dreamwidth.org/3275.html
ABOUT:

Once upon a time in Ventana Del Alma, an absolutely hideously awful couple decided to reproduce and spawned Catrina. Catrina went on to being the quote on quote 'normal' member of the family of mobsters by being an opera singer. The teen years were awful, her older brother ran away, a new hideous monster called Lola came into being, and ended up being prepped for becoming the next head for the family owned mafia. At nineteen, Catrina pretty much pulled a Jigglypuff during an opera concert and ran away as well for the next nine years as a traveling bard while looking for her brother.

Jumping over the Pry Gala, finding her brother, the subsequent assassination of her Mom and Lola via divine wish granting, Ventana Del Alma getting attacked by mutants and vampires, Ventana Del Alma getting the magical equivalent of a nuke, and moving to Estrella Del Rio. Catrina has been through a roller coaster and has magically found herself as an awful candle here in the Pokemon world. Who wants to take in this awful creature? She offers pinecones to eat. Good news! This Candle monster is learning the magic of friendship finally!

Now with the extra bonus of having interchangeable dentures of the nightmare fuel kind!

PLANS:

Catrina is already happily taken for the heavy quest this month, but this weirdo is still very much opened to the light quests and getting into trouble. She has to have some mischief with her brand new sets of teeth...oh Arceus...the TEETH..

ANYTHING ELSE: Please be prepared for this weirdo to be wearing her fresh new teeth like fashion accessories...also now there's a lot of cursed looking clay ghost dolls thanks to her quest last month..

[sharpjustice]

please freak mayaka out with the new teeth

[gimmeeyeballs]

Will do >:3c Mayaka, I'm so sorry, Catrina is an absolute weirdo with her makeshift dentures!
