I am a terrible person and this is the best opportunity to prove it.

Akko here is going to be signed up for the Pillars of the Community quest to teach magic to any volunteers. So if anyone is interested in a complete failure of a lesson (Akko can barely do the magic she knows as it is let alone teach anyone else how to do it) please let me know.

[maipokerface]

I'm interested in pitching Mai into Blinded With Science: Take Two, Rockin' Robin Robbin' or You Know How the Caged Bird Sings.

In the third quest she has no qualms about going after any remaining shaman - in fact she'll likely encourage it, viewing it as an act of securing safety from anything else they may decide to do in the future.

[doomedtheworld]

Looking to take on the Caged Birds and Bone To Pick quests with Vin here. She'll likely be approaching both incognito, wearing a hooded mistcloak and mask to hide her identity and using her Allomancy powers openly. If anybody she met during the intro log happens to ask her to accompany them she'll do so without a disguise but she'll use her powers in more subtle ways.

Open to both working together or law enforcement types to get in her way.

In Caged Birds she will be interested in tracking down any Shamans involved with the kidnapping, either to eliminate them or try to pry information out of them. So she can work with anybody wanting to hunt those suckers down. She won't have much personal stake in this but she also won't stop anybody who wants to carve out some revenge for themselves.

She will be going straight for the big prize of dragon bones in Bone To Pick and won't hesitate to incapacitate any guards around them, although she'll avoid killing if she can. This is the one where she's basically in it to make some money so she won't be particularly out to spill blood here.

She might also take a swing at training a bird or something I dunno. Hit me up if any of this sounds interesting.

TEACH SHELL ABOUT MAGIC

She could do even the simplest spell and he'd be impressed, tbh.

[izanyagi]

Hello yes please, Yu would like to know more about Magic

[meinwaifu]

Looking for someone(s) interested in Pillars of the Community where Mephisto (under the name Johann Faust) will be a teacher, teaching characters how they can learn the magic of this world and where to start if they come from a place totally devoid of it (he also offers private lessons for anyone who wants continuing CR!)

He also participated in Safe Haven, so he'll be teaching a crystal class if anyone wants to mess around with the different powers they have!

Can be fellow teachers chatting between/during joint lessons or students during class, whatever works!

[rosebyanyother]

I'm definitely interested in getting Peter to take a crystal class. (Actually, really I'm interested in both classes for him, but if I had to pick one over the other...I kind of want him to pick up a crystal....)

[icingonthecake]

despite how he might look, Axel here actually has a good bit of experience wearing the mentor hat, and honestly kind of really enjoyed it. as such, he'll be hopping on that Pillars of the Community bandwagon and offering Arson and Other Practical Applications of Fire (working title) and Dirty Dancing; or, How to Kick Ass Without Taking Collateral Damage classes.

if you wanna learn some handy dandy fire magic, or how to use some fancy footwork, or just wanna practice some two-handed melee/ranged combat, hmu!!

also interested in Bone to Pick, if anybody might want a buddy who can teleport and act as a decoy while you play sawbones.

[shikomizue]

I'd love to have Takasugi and Mai track down some shamans! He's not their biggest fan so he's all about going after them :D

[shikomizue]

I have no idea how these two would get along, but if you'd like to have the team up for Bone to Pick, I'd love to see how it goes lmao

Takasugi can saw bones all day he's done it before he'll do it again

[maipokerface]

Man this time her morality is gonna be shaking. I'm so down for this.

[shikomizue]

no need for morality THESE GUYS SUCK!!!

i'll write us a starter if you'd like, and link it here!

[icingonthecake]

idk your canon, friend, but i am always up for new CR! i'll be posting a thread for quest stuff, but since Bone to Pick does require a partner i was gonna do individual starters for that. where might Takasugi usually be found? i could have Axel be there and they could bump into each other and decide to go graverobbing together, what could possibly go wrong.

[shikomizue]

Hell yeah!!

Takasugi is usually in Wyver or the Guilded Cage - more specifically probably drinking or gambling kafjsdf MAYBE MEETING IN THE JUNGLE AT THE SITE IS THE BEST IDEA!

If they're going for the same thing, Takasugi will work together out of convenience, so that sounds great to me! He's more focused on getting dragon bone himself (because go big or go home), but if you'd rather go human hunting we can do that :D

[icingonthecake]

we could meet there, that's fine too! i think Axel's more interested in just checking out the weirdness than actually desecrating any graves, LMAO, but he's a great decoy, so if Takasugi will grab a bone for him too, so they can both get paid, he'll be happy to create a flashy diversion to get him all the time he needs!

[shikomizue]

sounds like a plan! They can 'admire the scenery' for a while, but when Takasugi spots some primo dragon bone he'll go for it, and make sure to get some for Axel too isn't he a good guy?

(He's not.)

[meinwaifu]

Let's do it!! Honestly Mephisto's ego is such that he'll probably show off his own powers/magic while teaching about the crystals, since some of them do things similar to what he can already do on his own.

I'm working on a catch-all log for quests and such this month, so I can shoot you a link when I get it up later today!

[quintessent]

+1 perspective student for practicing melee combat. :D

She may scoff at his technique.

[icingonthecake]

wow rude no scoffing at your sensei.

i'm kidding, please make fun of him, that's how he makes all his friends anyway. i'll make us a starter in the log when i post it, if you like! any preference for setup?

[icingonthecake]

LMAO Axel's moral compass points magnetic north at best, so as long as you're not kicking puppies and killing children he probably won't care.

[shikomizue]

Here you go! Let me know if I should change anything ;u; I'll have the thread segue into shaman hunting after this little intro bit :D

[quintessent]

Ahh! I don't have any preferences! I'm fine with tagging a generic starter too if you're going to have those/whatever works best for you!

[shikomizue]

They'll be perfect for each other then lmao

[meinwaifu]

And then I got it typed up faster than I thought -- let me know if that works for you!

Also as a side note: Mephisto goes by the name Johann Faust when he's actively pretending to be human, so he would have told the class to call him Professor Faust!

[maipokerface]

Bless, thank you. Remind me next time to write the starter in repayment.

[fiendennor]

akko

akko please

[guidetoblivion]

Okay, so I'm thinking of giving Riku a bird or two to train, but also to sign him up for the Caged Bird quest, as he was one of the people kidnapped and he is definitely interested in getting the rogue shamans off the streets! He's seeking to turn them in rather than to kill them outright, but well… maybe a team mate or two will have other ideas? mo_om

[insist]

Rohan will be satisfying his curiosity by going to other people's classes. He's the kind who wants to try everything once, and will probably do anything for the experience. The only classes he won't go ... will be art classes, mainly because he already thinks he's the hottest artist on the block.

I'm also pretty interested in Actual Pillars (Rohan has a camera and likes to sketch stuff, he's already ready to explore this shit), Preaching in a Material World, Rockin' Robin Robbin' and Caged Bird. He'd pretty much do anything because he's deathly curious.

For the Rockin' Robin prompt, he could feasibly control the birds with his mind control, but I've nerfed him so his power doesn't work all the time. I'm ready for disaster-like threads where they figure out how to get these birbs to listen, tbh. He also kind of dislikes animals, so this will be funny.

For Caged Bird, I'm kind of interested in getting Rohan the teleportation pendant, or the visions pendant?? He's going to have a heck of a fun time with new powers tbh. Anyway, he's really no hero but uhhh ... how do i say this. he's incredibly bored and will do anything if it looks fun. i'd love to do something like going undercover to gather more information, or rigging a fight with his mind-control powers. maybe he can partner up with someone on a revenge quest too?? OR STEALING! he would totally steal some loot from the Temple/other gangs.

while rohan has stupid infomod/mind-control powers (that i've nerfed), he's pretty useless in a physical fight otherwise. please someone save the manga artist.

[bullshitter]

i want chloe to take better pictures with her camera phone than rohan does with his camera xoxoxoxo kid

[insist]

it's not his fault he's from 1999 and didnt have camera phones oh my god????

yeh they can explore the caves ... maybe they get caved in .....

[guidetoblivion]

Riku is going to do Caged Birds to go after the Shamans too – with intent to get some info from them and then turn them over to the authorities – so this may be a chance for these two to meet and work together?

[doomedtheworld]

That sounds great to me. I have a post up with an open prompt for just that but if you'd like to start off a different way we can work it out.

[winddaughter]

Anemone's definitely looking for someone to teach her about the crystals because she really needs something useful on her person, if he's still open to students lol.

[ukase]

Brock Rumlow is looking to throw his name into the underworld games of both cities, and right now, I'm looking to have him participate in Rockin'Robin Robbin' for Cree and Preaching to the Material World for Voss.

Also willing to be a grave-robbing jerk for Bone to Pick.

Rumlow has no powers whatsoever, but he's highly skilled at tactics, leadership, infiltration, combat and all that goes with being a professional double-agent for years. He is sneaky and can lie his way out of most situations.

[meinwaifu]

So I was gonna say yes, but then it took me three days to even get back to you, so I think it's safe to say I'm a little swamped this month. But it looks like the quest goes until mid-may, so if you're still looking for someone to quest with next month, I'd love to thread out more classes!

[winddaughter]

Sounds good!
