Search Requests

Search Requests

While traveling through Norfinbury, 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. This page is not for reporting standard movements; if you need to do that, follow the directions on the character movements page. You can also find the square allowances on that page: remember, a quick search takes one square of movement, while a thorough search takes two!

In order to have your character search an area, first find the comment of the location your character will be searching. There are general area comments at the beginning for uncovering new squares, searching outside of buildings, and talking to @ADMIN or other things not tied to a specific building. If your character is trying to speak to @ADMIN, simply use the header for the area your character is currently in. After those are building comments for searching inside of buildings. We will reply back within two days informing you what your characters found. Search requests will always receive some sort of reply, even if it's just "there isn't anything interesting here". We will also do our best to hint if there's something more your character can do, if this place has already been thoroughly searched, or if there's just nothing there at all.

In order to submit a search request, please put the IC day you're doing your search in the subject line and fill out the following form:

Search Request
(I realize this contains a specific building search as well but I thought it would be easier on you if you only had the one comment to deal with. If you need me to duplicate the 264 search in its thread let me know!)

Area Searched:
IIJ 5 - flip square
IIJ4 - flip square
264 - QUICK...?
Anything Else? With Quark, doing some exploring before returning to creepy horror building. He's going to take some of the human remains and try to bury them outside before lockdown (with a respectful prayer for the dead, of course), including at least one piece of human leather from the walls.

While searching (but before the whole burial attempt), the following happens:

@robertmiller:

I know you have no reason to answer me, but this has been weighing on my mind and you are the only one I know of who may have an answer. I have heard you described the anomalies as people like us, people you have tried to transport here but failed. I do not know if they are who they appear to be when they appear to us, but that is less important than the fact they are in pain and are searching desperately for something to relieve it, something we have that they do not. What is it?

Yeah, he'll bury them under the snow (though like. Not where people are likely to step on them) and add at the end of his prayer, "I apologize for being unable to dig a better grave for you. I hope it's better than seeing your remains used as some macabre decoration."
