riverviewooc | Mission: Petcetera

Hello gamemates! Rocket here to talk about exciting mission opportunities for chaos, fun, and excitement.

Petcetera discussion on the state of the game and the Mission details are at the links provided.

The current roster of volunteers.

~~Rey (Star Wars)~~
Poe Dameron (Star Wars)
Tony Stark (616)
Daryl Dixon (The Walking Dead)
Stephen Strange (MCU)
Augustine Sycamore (Pokemon)
Benjamin Holt (OC)
Antillar Maximus (Codex Alera)

We can still take more volunteers if you're interested. To make things easier to play out, I'd love to have the mission broken into sections and let people work on parts of it and with each other as needed. The idea being maybe we can build teams for certain aspects and the teams can work together or individually as people want to play it.

Update This is a bit sudden but I'm withdrawing from the mission due to a need to drop Rey. If anyone would like to take over the mission you are welcome to. My apologies for this confusion. Since the mission is still in early planning stages, I am hoping this will get straightened out to everyone's satisfaction and I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

If you're willing to wait on me, I can take this mission back over if Cassian gets in, and continue to help organize/run the mission. If you would prefer to move forward with it as is, that is another possibility. In either case I think it would be for the best to retcon Rey's network post about the mission.

Skillsets/Volunteers & Teams: The mission requires characters with the following skills/jobs:
Characters who are good with animals, have training with them, or have animal-related abilities
Members of the Perimeter Guard
Characters who are skilled fighters for protection.

We have a couple healers, some animal handlers, a few perimeter guard/fighters/trackers familiar with protecting and navigating so we have a good spread of characters. If you're not involved and want to be, there's a pretty good spread of possible roles to help fill.

If you can, leave a comment with what your character is likely to contribute/want to do, we can work on setting the mission up and figuring out what the teams are planning to do and how things might go.

Daryl grew up hunting and with that came skills as a tracker. He's going to be put to use with tracking the little monsters, building traps, and navigating the wilds. As he's naturally used to watching out for his group, he'll probably end up taking up an unofficial guard position for whatever people he's with while things are going on.

Okay, so since we're planning here, Professor Sycamore is one of the animal handlers for this mission.

And since he is worried about the creature regarding its origins and behavior, his first priority is that to learn more them as well seeing if it's aggressive or not before helping the others on taming the creatures.

Unfortunately, his only defense is by using his Garchomp, so I have a feeling he might need more help when it comes to survival.

max is a member of the perimeter guard. in addition to that, he can
- calm animals (so long as he's around earth, but that won't be a problem i suppose)
- heal wounds (so long as he's around water, preferably enough to submerge the wound)
- he's a skilled fighter

max would most naturally fall into the role of fighter/protector, with calming animals and healing only as they become necessary

• Not (yet!) a member of the guard, but possibly soon will be.
• Expert hand-to-hand combatant
• She can fly, has microscopic/x-ray vision, enhanced hearing, travel faster than the speed of sound aside form all her more obvious offensive abilities. She's handy to have around in a pinch.

Kara's dad used to take her on trips like these often; so she can help with the animals and also keep an eye on the group for threats from a distance, make sure they stick together, etc.

Jon works as a perimeter guard. He's has a bit of experience with tracking, but his main skill is in combat. He was part of the Night's Watch and went on excursions beyond the Wall, so this would be very similar to him.

Objective: Capturing a few breeding pairs of the Reality Star Pet. We're looking for a deceptively cute critter, one that would be in high demand as a pet, and is still capable of being nasty and dangerous as this one purportedly is outside of the show. Let's have fun with this, as it could be an interesting pet people can have in the future if they succeed in taming/domesticating them. It's also possible that might just not be a thing that can happen. That depends on the outcome we decide on, I imagine.

Dangers: Apparently this creature only made a good pet because it was under telepathic control. The type of creature we're dealing with is up to us, so if you have suggestions leave them below with: What it looks like, the dangers it poses, where it's likely to live, whether or not they're loners or pack creatures, and what it's likely to eat. I think these are the relevant questions for our mission, as they help with tracking and trapping as well as knowing how it will react. We're definitely dealing with an aggressive creature.

I think something that's about the size of a house cat, but physically resembles a baby sloth mixed with something else. Particularly the claws and face of the sloth if not the body
