LOCATIONS

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 incensed or 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!

So you'll do it no matter what I say.

[ Ever eternally patient, she doesn't sound aggravated. I'm Not Mad, Just Disappointed, if you will. After a long moment, she sighs. ]

Then this must be done safely. Under observation, with assistance. If you become a danger to yourself or others, we will need a team standing by. I would be there as well. Not everyone is as particular about handling individuals under the influence of the incense and its effects gently as I am.

... thank you, Aminat. What protocol exists for a situation like this will be followed by me and whoever would like to join us. I'll make it known beforehand that you are my voice while I'm incapacitated.

When the distillation equipment is ready, I will contact you again.
