The Stormfather

Adin?

I haven't looked into the district specific threads. Do I need to or can I just leave the district of my character to be decided as whichever one fits best, since where he comes from has basically 0 relevance?

I think @RoyalBeeMage meant that it could like, toggle and un-toggle, maybe?

Does this mean you have approved this talent?

"We don't know. We don't get many cases that other, more physical realm-bound police forces can't handle, but this one, raiding of the trade shipments, is one of the most common. It's really one of the only crimes we get, other than some murderers switching planets. One time a few years ago...Well, lets say that a long time ago we didn't run backround checks on the people joining up. Ugh... Yon..." Synwyl sighs, shaking her head. "I learned then to never be that trusting. I'm not too confident that you lot are good enough to solve this, but we do have other teams that will take over if you mess this up. Be careful, and... Don't trust anyone."

I haven't read anything non-cosmere. AGHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Can the next one please be cosmere so I can play in it?

You can all join. Forgive me if I forget who has which character though, I have a lot to keep track of. Anyone want to talk with Synwyl or anyone else before leaving?

Uhhh I can’t drink yet, so, good guess. TPBM is going to have a username based on a storm light character or meme.

Unrelated, but I just decided that my character Arc's dad was named Ark. his brother was named Bark. His other brother was named Barc

I just remembered when my character actually blackmailed callie. That was so funny, I can remember telling @The Sibling "If I can't burn down the entire forest, then I'm blackmailing the gamemakers!"

So, basically, all of you have time for interaction amongst each other for the next i'll say two days and then the journey to the perpendicularity will start. good?

It's totally white sands.

Yeah, the solution was just taking off all the weights. On to the first case! I'm goign to assign all of the players to the same spot just to make this easier for me. The captain you have been assigned to introduces himself as Synwyl. She is a scadrian terriswoman, who clearly has metalminds but didn't say anythign about them. She gives this spiel to all of the people independently, but the talks are all about the same. This is one of them, "So, time for you're first case. This one.... Well, I'll just say that we might not be starting you off too easy. No cases for us are easy. We don't actually get many cases, so you'll probably be able to use a lot of resources and connections to figure out who's been doing this. (Context : Interplanetary trade happens. Roshar sends crystals and gems to scadrial, who sends aluminum back, horneaters claim they have a lightweaver who is soulcasting. There. Boom. Context!) "six days ago, one of the shipments of aluminum and cadmium from scadrial was robbed. It was still inside Shadesmar, which baffles me. There were three guards on the ship, a human and two reachers. They claim that they saw a person... swimming through the ocean. The person popped out, snapped the giant chains holding one of the crates in place, lifted the big crate (Weighed about 1000 pounds) and leapt into the ocean. Noone saw anything of them after. They moved so quickly, and the guards were too shocked to do anything. We suspected that they might be a full feruchemist, using a combination of tricks to swim through the ocean. That might explain the fast movement and the super-strength, but they would have had no way to gain momentum in the ocean. We thought about that for a while before realizing it was too far-fetched. Maybe they were a steelrunner, but they clearly had some other powers. We suspect they are scadrian, for obvious reasons. We're bringing in the three guards to see what it was they saw, but the reachers can't leave shadesmar. You all need to travel to the horneater peaks. be swift, and do not let anyone see you use an invested art. You are dismissed."

(I can tell you the solution so we can skip all the tests. I didn't realize they would take this long and we could get this going. I have a couple good ideas for cases that'll happen.) Also, @Brik_head you can join.

A series about cats for littler kids but it’s still pretty good. They live in the wild and there’s murders and wars and ghosts and magic and lots of random stuff and very convoluted family lines.

I would come, but, it's in the wrong country.

Yes, only one is unbalanced.

Well I'll be darned

Obviously stick would have caterpillars to carry them.

So basically there is three scales. one has two heavy weights, too heavy to carry, one has four and four small weights, and another has seven and eight small weights. The smalls are still very heavy, but liftable. "Balance all three scales."

You next. @Ookla thePresentParticiple, you pass. Who is your character? Sorry, I've got a lot to keep track of. Also, maybe I'm going to make it that each person only has to pass one test so that this can move a bit faster.

the room is about ten feet tall, and the holes go up to around your height. @Ookla thePresentParticiple

Darts continue to shoot for a few minutes, then stop. The ground has been peppered with darts, but no more are shot from the holes. That is only the first of three sets of darts, however...

Oh, yeah. I'll change that.
