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 [community profile] incensed or [community profile] incenselogs, we do want to offer the opportunity for characters to interact with them. Therefore, with the exception of the aforementioned event posts where the NPCs might appear, all direct interactions with the coterie leaders can be done here. Simply comment below with the leader you'd like to interact with and whether it is in person or via medallion/journal in the subject line.

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!

Oh, good idea! I don't think I've ever used canella before, though I've made plenty of rice pudding. My nephew probably shares your fondness for it -- or used to at least. Thanks, I appreciate it! Last party I went to was the Christmas party for where I work so trust me, I understand not doing parties too often.

[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.

Yeah you're telling me. I think I've gotten turned around at least a time or two. I've been mostly looking at the ingredients for all of the potions and such, trying to figure out what I know the equivalent of from back home. I don't have a medical license but I do know enough first aid to be passable.

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.
