January OOC Post
Greetings, Travelers, and welcome to Stella Fortuna!
State of the World
For the first two weeks of the game, IC time will be looping from August 10th to August 16th. It's currently late summer in Mondstadt, and the trees are just beginning to turn out their autumn colours. The weather is cool and pleasant, with light showers on Tuesday (11th) and Friday (14th). It's also a good time to go out gathering berries and nature's bounty from Mondstadt's forests and valleys.
Our first group of characters will appear throughout Monday (10th) near the fountain in Market Square. NPCs will completely not notice the character’s arrival and treat them as if they had always been there. Even though nothing consequential seems to be happening in the city, characters should probably try to get used to their new life and using their Vision before things start to shake up a bit.
There will be no activity requirements for January, so all threads started during this time period can be used for regains!
The January IC log post will go up on our log community on January 18th. Till then, please use this post to plot with your fellow players.
Quests and Commissions
January will also be a test-run for our commissions system! For any feedback on the OOC and IC process of completing commissions, please let us know in the comment top-level below.
Commissions Listing
1. Books of Exotic TastePerson: Charles Mingle, self-proclaimed distinguished novelist
Request: “I require help regarding a rare, one-of-kind, extremely popular book. Please only respond if you possess a significant amount of taste.”
Charles Mingle is a struggling writer determined to write a world-wide hit on the Mondstadt Distinguished Best-sellers List. He requires the help of a mind much more cultured (or uncultured?) than his, and will accept as many different plot ideas and samples as the characters can offer. You may choose to take his request for an all-ages novel, or an erotic novel. No explicit descriptions are necessary, this commission is mostly for the memes.
Reward: A medium amount of Mora, a personal dedication to your characters, and also a copy of the hopefully award-winning novel.
2. Food Delivery
Person: Sara, waitress at Good Hunter
Request: “Good Hunter has received a surge in orders lately! Please help us deliver the food to our customers!”
Characters will receive a request to deliver some piping-hot food to adventurers out in the wilderness! Some food will require special care during transport. Please don’t eat the rations, Sara will be unhappy.
Reward: A small amount of Mora and a hot meal. Mmm, steak.
3. Forging Ahead
Person: Wagner, the Mondstadt blacksmith
Request: “I’ve heard news about a rare blue ore popping up around Mondstadt. If I get a good supply of this ore, I might be able to forge something better than my previous work.”
Characters will need to go out and mine for Crystal Ore and Resonant Ore. They can be hacked at with pickaxes or claymores, or they can be retrieved by Geo Vision users. Or if you’re a Pyro with an Electro buddy, you can try… explosive mining. Note that being a Vision user doesn’t make you immune to friendly fire or collateral damage.
This commission is more difficult than the others and characters will probably have to face a lot of physical exertion.
Reward: A weapon!
4. Clutch Rescue
Person: Adeline, from Springvale
Request: “Several of my prize hens have gone missing! I’m so worried for my beautiful girls. Please look around and find out where they might have gone!”
Adeline’s hens are missing. She shut them in the coop a few days ago, but someone seems to have broken into the coop and taken a few hens. The remaining hens are all in various states of fright from the abduction attempt.
Characters will need to use Elemental Sight to track the Cryo marks on the coop into a nearby Domain. There will be a battle against an Abyss Mage who luckily only wanted eggs.
Reward: EGGS! And Adeline’s eternal gratitude.
5. Paranormal Activity
Person: Boris, from the Adventurers’ Guild
Request: “I’ve heard rumours of a green-coloured ghost wandering Mondstadt at night… Some say the ghost haunts the Whispering Woods and Windrise. Is it really true? Is anyone brave enough to look?”
This is an RNG commission! Please specify if you would like to thread out a combat or non-combat commission. Your character may encounter monsters, Seelies, a mysterious NPC, or all three.
Reward: ???
Accepting Commissions
The mods will not thread out most quests with players; instead players will receive a write-up of the quest process. After threading out the quest with their thread partner, the thread can then be submitted to the OOC post for their rewards.
For example:
➤ Players A and B wish to participate in a commission.
➤ Player A comments to the OOC post with the sign-up form and includes both their characters. The form will include how their characters will handle the commission request.
➤ Mods will then comment to the sign-up form with a text description of what their characters are likely to encounter while trying to fulfil the request.
➤ Players A and B then thread out their characters doing the commission.
➤ After the thread has achieved the commission’s objective, player A replies to the mod comment with the thread link.
➤ Mods will then comment to the thread link with the characters’ rewards.
Players are allowed to backtag the previous month’s commissions. However, threads of commissions from two months back cannot be turned in for rewards anymore.
Swapping
For players who joined us in our first app round will have the option to swap their ingame character for another if they feel that their current character is not a good fit for the setting. Players will not need to wait until our next app round to app in their replacement character. If you would like to utilize this option, please let us know at our mod contact post and we'll make the necessary arrangements.
Plotting
Feel free to use this post as a plotting post for all your CR and commission pairing needs! A quick form is provided for your use:

If Albedo has experiment results & notes on the travelers arranged on a bulletin board in the alchemy lab, will it reset to be whatever was there at the start of the loop? Or since he has altered things himself, will those alterations persist?
