COTERIE INTERACTIONS (IC) - CHAPTER I

COTERIE INTERACTIONS
✶ ✶ ✶
The leader of each coterie, all colloquially known by the same name as their group—Jaguar, Eagle, Viper, and Salamander—will play a major role in the story, oftentimes appearing in events and even, during major plots, accompanying the player characters on their quests. While having constant access to them in threads would be difficult to keep track of and may lead to unfair advantages for some characters, and they will never directly comment to any network or log posts made in

Note that it is fine to handwave minor interactions with the NPCs, such as in the case of exposition or receiving their quest orders, and you do not need to thread that out here nor ask permission from the mods. Relationships beyond passing familiarity as leader/subordinate cannot be handwaved however—in general, characters will not "build CR" with their leader to the degree they might with other characters in the game. They will still get to know them well over the course of the story, though.
Please also note that the NPCs are played by the mod team and are subject to the same tagging speed or question-answering expectations. We will respond as soon as we can!

[ There's a brief pause, apparently out of surprise, but then Salamander hmms softly in what's apparently a patient sort of laugh. ]
I'm afraid I've never been one for parties, myself, but... if it's for a birthday, then... hmm. I believe you could find the ingredients for a rice pudding here. There is one I was most fond of, growing up, that was made with only a few things. Rice, milk and nectar to sweeten it. Then you could add vanilla and canella for flavor. Lightly scorch the creamy surface to form a shell beneath an open flame after it's finished baking, and there you have it.

[Though the difference here is likely that Eva likes parties pretty well to be honest. When she isn't getting hit with brooms or such anyhow, thanks Neil.]
I've been doing alright settling in, thanks for asking. The library you have is really fascinating.
no subject
[ She should really listen to her own advice—ol' gal probably hasn't partied since dinosaurs last roamed the earth. ]
I'm glad you like it! If there are any subjects you're interested in, I or one of my assistants can guide you on where to find it. It's... easy to get lost in there among all the books sometimes.
no subject
Though... I know you all have ways of neutralizing the incense or at least lessening the effects. The work I do at home is psychologically related so I'd like to dive into dealing with the effects of the incense if I could. I'll try not to bug your assistants too much but I'm sure they wouldn't mind a set of hands to help.
Thanks for chatting with me by the way. I don't doubt everyone is busy but I do really enjoy getting to know my "coworkers" as it is.
no subject
And it is no trouble! I'll admit I sometimes become so absorbed in my work that I forget all else, but I'm always happy to get to know not just my people, but anyone settling in or in need of answers.
