march plotting & plot rolls
Hey guys! Getting the plot show on the road, ahead of the 12-13 March update — some of the big-picture mission objectives available:
- ■ finding the babe-eating serpent woman mentioned by Taksui
■ looking into the dark well waters
■ finding out the village links to the feral Beastmaster
Beyond that...
There are three mod-assigned plot rolls/objectives available — — comment here by 23:5 GMT on 11 March to enlist your character.
You can also sign up for a RNG selected conversation with either corrupt village leader Hok-Shinn Weisi or with mysterious blind priestess Hyang-Tai, also by 23:5 GMT on 11 March. The expectation is to try to finish a thread with them by 20 March, if your character is selected — and to share findings with the group, after.
If you want to carry out your own plot or exploration, fill out the below form and try to recruit other other folks into your fun. You can ask for help or a mod roll here, if you want rewards or consequences for something characters try to do (ex: two fools try to burn a volcano. What happens? Heh. )
No ideas? Join someone else's plot!
Regarding ancestral curses — your character's atonement can be as specific or general to the curse story as you want.
Example: if your character is making amends for the wrath/indifference of a daughter-in-law who quietly suffered the nonstop criticism of her new family, until one day she snapped and took an axe to them: you could do story-specific acts of atonement, like finding the remains of the woman's family and making offerings to silence their aggrieved spirits or cleaning the last drop of blood from their decaying house, midway-specific ones like teaching new brides patience or how to cope with nagging in-laws, or more generic solutions, like promoting pacifism worldwide.
Generally, curses are just meant to prompt characters to exit their comfort zones and ice break some new CR — have fun!

Up to you whether the curse expires on its own around the one-two-week mark, or whether the duo need to fix the altar with their adorable snouts (by bringing fresh stones, removing weeds, re-writing the local symbols with their cinnabar-dipped paws). You can have them be full foxes for the duration, or randomly transform into foxes at various parts of the day.
The foxes can somehow still communicate via transmitter.
En........ joy.
