SCOUTING

The Scouting Division encompasses traditional scouting, tracking, and reconnaissance work, along with more espionage-focused tasks like surveillance, intelligence-gathering, and cryptography. Their overarching goal is make sure that whatever the Inquisition wants to do next, they have the information they need to pursue it as efficiently, safely, and successfully as possible.

CLOUDREACH 9:44

[frdivisions]

ASSIGNMENT: SCOUTING VARIOUS LOCATIONS
WHAT: Scouting parties are the eyes and ears of the Inquisition, necessary to ensuring the Inquisition remains aware of any and all significant events occuring in the lands around Kirkwall. The people on these assignments will be tasked with exploring the location they select, keeping an eye out for anything serious enough that it might affect the Inquisition. While scouts are encouraged to try to investigate anything they find, their job is ultimately to assess, not engage, and attempting to handle any serious threats on their own are frowned upon.
WHERE: Scouts may select (or be assigned) from the following locations:

• Planasene Forest
  
• Wounded Coast
  
• Vinmark Mountains
  
• Lakes of Wildervale
  
• Sundermount

WHEN: Throughout Cloudreach
WHO: Groups of 1-3 scouts. You're allowed to sign your character up for multiple locations, obviously allowing time for them to go back to the Gallows, report, and relax for a day or two before being sent back out.

MISSION: CATCH A KILLER
WHAT: Ostwick has sent a request to the Inquisition--They're being plagued by a serial killer, and after reaching dead end upon dead end, don't have the resources to keep devoting to this. They're asking for help from the Inquisition, in exchange for information relevant to their interests. Enough so that the Scoutmaster has agreed, and will be taking a small group to Ostwick to investigate. The killer has thus far been targeting newlywed couples, and thus the group will enter Ostwick posing as two pairs of newlyweds, hoping to draw the killer out.
WHERE: Ostwick
WHEN: Mid-Cloudreach
WHO: Three other people, whoever signs up gets to decide who's paired with who. Hopefully, in hilarious teams.

MISSION: THE BONE PIT
WHAT: The Bone Pit is a mine that lives in infamy, known for the regular disasters that hit it, some of which the Champion herself was tasked with fixing. Eventually, the mine was closed, and the general opinion is that it was for the best. However, there's been strange lights and noises seen in the area at night by locals passing by. None of them wanted to investigate, and it's fallen to the Inquisition. The job will be to see what's going on, and either deal with it or report back, depending on how serious it is.
WHERE: Guess
WHEN: Early Cloudreach
WHO: A team of around 4-5 people

Name: Marisol Vivas
Assignment/Mission: Catch A Killer or The Bone Pit (equally interested)
Notes: Marisol's smuggling/information contacts or knowledge of smuggling routes could potentially be useful particularly for the Bone Pit, although obvs that's at your discretion

[arlathvhen]

Congratulations, you've been assigned to Catch A Killer, with your new wife, Melys. Throws flowers over the two of you.

[champions]

please imagine she dramatically winked at the scoutmaster when assigned to this mission, regardless of context

irl ;D

[aforethought]

Name: Melys
Assignment/Mission: To Catch a Killer, the Bone Pit
Notes: Equally interested, and if there are more signups than slots please remove her

[arlathvhen]

Congratulations, you've been assigned to Catch A Killer, with your new wife, Marisol. Hopefully your old wife won't get too jealous.

[exequy]

Name: Kostos Averesch
Assignment/Mission: Scouting location of your choice, or Catch A Killer if you wind up needing him there
Notes: I can't believe you beat Cass to making a fake married plot

[galvanising]

i've been trying for YEARS!!!

[arlathvhen]

Assignment: Scouting Planasae Forest.

While scouting the forest in question, Kostos will come across a group of mages in a makeshift camp city. If he investigates, he'll find that they appear to be harmless, having chosen to stay away from civilization while the war was still uncertain. They are, however, incredibly annoying, and prone to launching into telling Kostos the singularly most boring stories imaginable. Did you want to know how to grow and harvest moss as a food source? Now you do!

[aenseidhe]

Name: Iorveth
Assignment/Mission: The Bone Pit, Catch A Killer
Notes: OOCly equally interested in all of the above, ICly, Iorveth would run from that pretend to be married thing so fast, which might make it hilarious for him to be assigned it. But otherwise I'm up for anything \o/ Just put him in where a people is needed. Also good with general Scouting Various Locations stuff if we need folks for it.

[arlathvhen]

Unfortunately for Iorveth, he's been assigned to Catch A Killer and stuck with Beleth. At least he'll probably get to stab someone at some point during the mission.

[aenseidhe]

legit just made a joke the other day in a thread that hed be allowed to murder humans without consequence on his wedding day

8') bless

[gottakeeponejumpahead]

Name: Adasse Agassi
Assignment/Mission: Scouting (all locations), The Bone Pit.
Notes: He has gotten SO GOOD at being sneaky let him sneak.

[arlathvhen]

Assignment: Scouting the Wounded Coast.

While Adasse scouts the Wounded Coast, he will hear a ghastly wailing coming from one of the tucked away campsites. If he investigates, he'll discover that this wailing is nothing more than a distressed woman traveling to Kirkwall, whose cat has managed to get caught in a nearby tree. She will then tearfully request that Adasse help her.

If he does, Adasse will be rewarded with a lot of cat fur all over his clothes, and a delicious scone from the thankful woman. If he refuses, he'll discover the woman is actually a blood mage, and agitated by his refusal, will promptly attempt to attack him. Whoops.
