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!

Templestones and Winternacht sound more like names you could find on my world. [One of her friends is named Nacht.] But did you sail because it was swifter than the overland route would have been? Or is Copalli really an island?


But also... I think he did mean the island that the diadem came from. [She's a little hesitant about continuing on that subject. Salamander has every reason to not want to talk about it.] With everything that happened... obviously there was no chance to look any further than the monsters and the god in the artifact. Jaguar said that he wasn't sure whether or not you had done any more research about the ruins after things calmed down.

[That is far from all that Jaguar said about it, but Sarah doesn't think it would be very politic to repeat his opinions of Salamander here, especially when he made it clear enough what he thought last time they appeared in public together.]
