Hello! Thanks for signing up, and sorry for the delay getting in for back to you! You’re in, and here is some info.

WHO: Marisol and up to three more people, as long as either (1) they’re a reasonably appropriate choice for the mission or (2) we talk about it and work out why your character is allowed to take an unreasonably inappropriate choice. Basically, don’t make my character look like an idiot for not telling yours they can’t take a boisterous drunk into a meeting with royalty or a helpless researcher into a war zone, and you’ll be good.

WHEN: Sometime during Cloudreach or Bloomingtide (April or May), whenever you want to fit it in. Try to submit a report by the end of May.

WHAT: Basically, go dazzle. The Laseca family—matriarch Didia, patriarch Lar, and an assortment of five young adult and teenage children—have transitioned from the Soporati into the Laetan class within the last decade due to three of their children developing magic, and have even more recently come into a large amount of money when old family mines found untapped veins of Silverite in the hills near Peravantium. They have money and some power, love attention, and have no interest in the current Tevinter social order, which heavily favors Altus mages and doesn't leave the non-magical Didia and Lar room to rise any higher than they already have.

Lar is throwing a lavish—bordering on garish—party for Didia, and seeking the aforementioned attention, has invited the Inquisition to send representatives. Mindful of appearances, the Inquisition isn't openly accepting this invitation on paper, but it will nonetheless send Marisol and a few others to put on a show and try to see what information or favor there is to be won in the bargain.

The Lasecas will look favorably on flashy magic demonstrations, rifters (how novel!), and drama that will leave their guests talking, as long as it isn't at their expense. They'll look less favorably on any outrage over their use of slaves (they treat them well! look how unbeaten they are!) or open attempts to talk politics or secure promises outright.

If Marisol plays her cards correctly and subtly, one of the guests may mention the scandal in Nevarra and specifically recall Estoris and Tividar, of Nevarra fame, visiting one of the guest's relatives in Qarinus to discuss it.

HOW: You can make everything a group effort if you want, or divvy things up however you like. And it doesn’t matter if you RP every aspect or just pick a scene or two that would be the most fun to write and handwave the rest.

ETC: Let me know if you have any questions.
