Search Requests
| Search Requests | |||
For the most part, characters are allowed to travel from uncovered square to uncovered square and gather basic items on their own, provided they announce what they're taking on the appropriate page. However, it's important that we can keep track of how everyone is moving daily, and you and your characters may want to search for more plot-relevant items. There are also squares on the map that no one has traveled to, and remain a mystery until explicitly uncovered. Thus, the search page has been created for this use. You must report your character's movements in your thread. We want to make sure you haven't made any math mistakes and keep characters from accidentally teleporting around the map, for one, and we also want to make sure your character gets to experience any location-relevant situations. We will respond to your characters' movement updates within 48 hours with any monsters they would have run into that day and anything that would happen of note on a specific square your character traveled through, in addition to pointing out any math errors. In the case of monster encounters, while the day they happen on is random, you will be able to select exactly where they encounter them. You will have to respond to us telling us how the character(s) handled the monster. Unless something unusual happens, we will not reply to your character movement updates. How much searching and traveling your character can do is based on the weather, any movement penalties your character may have, and any events that may otherwise hinder travel. Common sources of movement penalties are injury and being over-encumbered--if you want to try and drag a mattress around with you, don't expect to get anywhere very quickly! Travel and search are based on the squares of the map, and all actions are discussed in terms of squares. All searching uses up squares, which means every search reduces the amount of squares your character can travel. No searching is a free action, and is added on top of square movement, so make sure to double check your math! Moving to a square and searching a building in that square both have to be thought of as separate things, not as using the same amount of time. We will provide a limit of the amount of squares your characters have to act which encompass all actions a character takes that day; if they go over that limit, they will not be able to do anything beyond the last action that would have used up a legitimate block of time. Much like finding normal items, searches are split up into quick searches and thorough searches. A quick search takes up one square of travel time per building or area searched, while a thorough search takes up two squares of travel time per building or area searched. If you thoroughly search three buildings on one square, that would take up all of your movement at once, two per building searched. Residential Zone One: November 22 - February 1 Residential Zone Two: November 22 - February 1 Ice Caves: November 22 - February 1 Downtown: November 22 - February 1 Split Tunnels: November 22 - February 1 Entrance: November 22 - February 1 First, reply to this thread to make a top level comment where all of your location check-ins and advanced search requests will go. This thread should have your character's name in the subject line. Make sure to reference the setting page where necessary and let us know who is travelling with you. You can also use the character location spreadsheet that lists where characters are on various days, so you can more easily see where everyone is and how it relates to your character. This is player-updated, so feel free to make a row for your character and start adding where they've been! Additionally, there is a player-created and player-run character travel map that can be used, if you would like a more visual way to track things! Note that this is optional and not all characters may be included here. To report character movements, just use this form, making sure to put the IC day in the subject line. To inform us your character is searching for plot-relevant items or traveling into unexplored squares, use the following form, making sure to put the IC day in the subject line. Note that you will not always successfully find something, and the more specific you are in explaining how your character is searching, the better. If your character would like to alter something written in the basic description of a square or building, this is also the place to put that! For example, if your character really is going to give dragging a mattress around a try, they can take one from a house if you let us know. We can both adjust the descriptions of the locations and tell you potential results/penalties. To do this, fill out the following form and reply to your top level, making sure to note the IC date in the subject line: To search for items left in buildings by other characters, or have your character leave items in a building, please use this post and NOT the location alteration form. This post applies to searches from day 34 onward. The old search page with the old search results is kept here. | |||
Emily Kaldwin | Dishonored
Day 135
Starting Location: O8 - 103
Travel: P8 - toward 102, but doesn't enter

Areas Searched: O8 - 103, thoroughly
Anything Else? Alone and re-thinking adventuring out, Emily decides to explore House 103 instead. She's quite fond of the writing on the walls, so she looks for pens, pencils, crayons, paints and paper as she goes through the house because she wants to doodle, too. She checks every drawer she can find, every cabinet, and looks under the bed and any furniture in the living room. Curious, she tests the faucets, but doesn't drink or bathe. She opens the fridge since it's neat, and she opens the oven since it's one of the few appliances she half recognizes. Instead of sleeping in the bed, she sleeps in the tub.

F17-131, thorough during lockdown (??)
Anything Else? Since EVERYONE IS FADING OUT OF EXISTENCE!!! Emily decides to just take some time to herself to explore the first floor. The labor delivery peaks her curiosity because it is familiar (by age). She searches the fam room and the doc room.
She isn't looking for anything in particular, though her searching is childishly thorough in the hope to find more drawing materials and something perhaps to wrap around her occasionally aching wrist. Since she's a kid, her searching tend to be lower down normally. She's good at checking things below the level of adults, so cabinets etc from waist to feet. The only time she'll use a chair or something to reach higher is if there's something blatantly catching her attention.

D162 search doodad sorta
Areas: I27-242 (fire station)
Anything Else? In the fire station, Emily leaves the stone in two places just to see if she can get rid of it finally. The first place is one of the bathrooms, but she ends up vomiting back up the stone later.
The second place is in front of the door labeled, "OPEN WITH CAUTION. MONSTER INSIDE." She assumes if the eye has anything to do with the town, maybe the monster wants the stone back.

What Are They Doing? Above the plaque with "Catfish" carved into it, Emily leaves a piece of paper stuck in the lip between the glass and tank-edge. Written in childishly-forced neat writing with a red pen, the paper says, "You have to put your own fish in the tanks. DO NOT put Birdfish, Mousefish, or Dogfish in the tank with the Catfish!"

Anything Else? Thinking the snow wall seems pliant(?), Peter and Emily return to the snow wall for most of the day so Peter can use his meat mallet. They're seeing if he can dig away at the snow. If it isn't solid enough, they'll be trying to make a passage through. Near the end of the day, they'll return to H146 for lockdown.
