| Duty Session 7: Obligatory Rat Cellar
|
2020 July 12th
|
In each of the starting cities, there are at least a couple of poor merchant landers who have developed mysterious rat problems. This is clearly bad for business! A worried looking Lander stands outside their shop, rubbing their hands together, looking anxious, flagging down any passing Adventurer they can find to help.
(Note: This Duty has multiple possible paths/challenges/rewards.)

| Floor 1: The First Push
|
2020 July 18th
|
Brave guilds, parties and soloers have been slowly poking at the first floor of Aincrad Tower. Progress has been slow due to uncertainty, low levels and a desire to avoid testing the Death theory. A wall has finally been hit where a larger push will be required to overcome it. As such, a strong, coordinated charge into the floor has been organized. Notices have been made. All Adventurers are invited.
Hellooooooo Adventurers! This is your host Misa Takayama. I'm going to be running a scene for the first major push into floor 1 of Aincrad Tower. THIS IS NOT THE FLOOR BOSS FIGHT. That will be coming later. But there will be fighting of mobs. EVERYONE IS INVITED. But I highly encourage to-be-eventually-formed Scale Emblem Alliance members to join in. It'll be a good hook for the formation of the guilds and subsequent alliance. After all, our whole alliance is basically focused on clearing the tower. But as I said, everyone is invited. I'm sure the majority of you have some reason to challenge the tower and the mobs inside.
It's unlikely to be card combat as I expect numbers to be too high for that... Though if the numbers do turn out to be small, I'm certainly happy to give a go at bossing in the card system. But I will try and come up with things to at least use dice rolls for.
I hope people will enjoy this!

Are you inexperienced? Do you need helping getting xp? Want to also help your fellow adventurers, by making the "Landers" work for you? Just bored and want to kill something with people? Well here is just the adventure for you!
Meet up with Xander Scaleharth and we will be going over the basics of combat, killing some crabs, and brining back some crab meat to have a specific lander in a kitchen cook up some meat for some extra coin to boot!
See you all there!

Patrols in the tower have located a patrol of crocmen that are camping out to close to the parameter of the town that everyone worked so hard to seize on Floor One.
While no one is sure what these Crocmen are planning, Xander has decided that he won't let them push any closer than they have and will force the crocs to think a bit more carefully on their choices of camping locations; Or getting any bright ideas about pushing back in!
As such, a notice goes out to any willing adventurers to join in taking out this Crocman Camp and any of their patrols in the area.

The region is largely open fields, with a lot of tall weeds. But there's old roads in the region that still carry some people who go to that region to gather some special herbs that can't be found anywhere else. The request requires the disposal of these goblins.

Various guilds have gotten together, led by the Scale Emblem Alliance, with plans to raid the first boss of the Tower. Formerly, it was always possible to open the doors and scout inside, and report on what is there. As such, the first team moves in, in order to get scouting under way.
But the plan goes awry.
Warning: As the boss system right now is a heavy weight on the system, and we are still balancing things out, we will be using Concept Roll based combat for this go around. Folk will be given 2 Evasion/Shield Failures during this battle, and a 3rd one if they wish to wager a Memory to stay in the battle.

First of all, let us set things straight: he's not her dad, and she's not his daughter. Despite him taking this weak defenseless thing under his wing, her complaining about the smell and suggesting deodorant, him teaching her to fight and enduring the harsh reality of this world with all its mortal dangers, first among them the lack of deodorant, and her getting toughened up, going from being a squishy newbie likely to be killed by the first bottom-level monster she encountered to being a squishy newbie who can contribute to boss fights yet actively seeks and pokes the bottom-level monsters she's just as likely to be killed by.
It's a complicated relationship, okay?
Come witness this majestic spectacle of nature, where gratitude and mutual caring is exchanged in the form of unleashing wanton violence on each other!

The adventurers have now kept two bandits within a small town, in an attempt to figure out where the bandit hideout was. The woman gave them a warning that a wreckoning would come and it seems that day has come.

It is time to end the bandit threat by going into the bandits own den. How are these adventurers getting in to end the bandit king? Simple! By disguising themselves as the bandits, bringing back his 'queen', and putting an end to this group once and for all.
They know the location, they have a key thanks to a captive, now they just need to finish what has started.
It's going to be a battle event. Come one and come all!
