If you made or plan to make your own party, please post thread here: http://hollowworld.co.uk/forums/alteraalive/

Also go there if you wish to join a party.


Please use the following format:

Title of Thread: [Date] <Name's Exploration> (Public/Private by Invitation)

Date and Time:
Event Tag: (Public, Private by Invite)
Party Leader:
Party Members: (please tag known party members)
Party Size Limit: (Please be reasonable here folks. If you don’t care, leave it blank.)
Proposed Zone of Exploration: (please consult the map and pick a zone)
Supplies and Other RP Context:




Summary
The Alteran adventurers successfully navigated the depths of the first Bastion, recovered the stone, and returned to the Grand Shrine relatively unscathed. Along the way, the adventurers encountered mysterious ethereal entities that appeared only as indistinct veils, devoid of light.

Upon return to the Grand Shrine, Clain informed some adventurers that he does not know the location of the other three Bastions. As such, news has spread that the Alterans must find the Bastions on their own.

Call For Exploration
This thread lists instructions for parties to notify staff of their intent to search for the Bastions. In exchange for prior notice, staff will do the best they can to provide interesting RP circumstances and a DM. You are free to search the map yourself and without giving notice here, of course, but please use the reasonableness standard when doing so (i.e. what is and is not a reasonable course of action in character). You are not being forced or prevented from organizing your own anything, from scouting to sweep-style searches.

If the land your party explores is not easily accessible (dock masters and the like) you will want to RP the voyage (if you’re traveling by sea, you’re gonna want to do a sea voyage). Please do make sure the focus of your mini-event is on searching for the Bastions, though.

You may either form a party or join one. If you wish to join an open party, please look for an open party on the second post and then post on this thread, indicating which party you'd like to join.

If you wish to form a party, please take a look at the map and select from the numbered districts. Please fill out the notice form to register your exploration mini-event. Event staff will provide a DM and work with party leaders to organize and/or modify the parameters of the mini-event. The mini-events can be public knowledge or private by invite. Public exploration events will welcome any explorers who wish to come along, while private groups will be by invitation only.

If there are regions in the zone you select, first check to see if it is on the region consent list found here: http://hollowworld.co.uk/threads/host-region-volunteer-registry.35951/

If it is on the list, then you can reasonably use the region during your exploration mini-event. If the region is not on the list, you must respect the rules of the region, including 1) getting permission to take the party into the region and 2) respecting classification rules. If the region owner simply does not want the party to explore the region, then the party must not explore it. The party must also respect locked doors and the like.

While there is no minimum party size, please keep RP in mind. For example, if you need to sail to where you need to go it would be prudent to have enough people to be able to sail.

Parties may choose more than one district and may adventure more than once. There is no restriction on exploring squares that other people have chosen, either. All we ask is that people be reasonable and try to respect one of our OOC goals, which is not only to provide player interaction, but to provide it to all who wish it.

OOC Information
Altera alive is an ongoing effort to turn the Aeon campaign into something more than monthly playdates. We will work with each and every party to try to stick to preferred dates and times, but we reserve the right to change dates/times according to DM and Build Team needs.

This is going to take an incredible amount of effort from staff to run, so I ask you all to be patient with dates and organization. We are going to try to do this in addition to bringing you the Bastions, after all. Every single one of these mini-events needs to be DM'd, and staff are going to do the best they can to make each one entertaining as well.

Altera Alive is more than just an exploration effort, though. It is an attempt to turn our world, and our campaign, into a living, breathing construct. In addition to increasing player interaction, the goal of Altera Alive is to make Aeon more personable, more interesting, and more fun. Not only will there be side events like these, but you may find parts of the campaign creeping into player-run events or even the daily lives of the Alterans.

Oh, this came out literally just before I was going to say "I'm making a thing to look for the rest of them irregardless of what we learn from Clain."

...WELP.

...Damnit, can I still make my own thread? Because It... I'm not going to spoiler it but it was beautiful.

Is there some kind of rolloff or are people going to be screeching to claim first-come first-serve?

...Regardless.

I own, or am friends with the primary region owner in most of these selections, though obviously I need to follow up with them.

You came in before I could organize the IC/OOC expeditions to these places. Was legit going to dispatch people to them this weekend to investigate /regardless/. I have one more thread to make.

Disclaimer: I /obviously/ don't expect folks to supervise all of these as IC events, but like, I was legit planning on sending someone to OOC+IC explore specific places of the map, due to IC logic, before this thread came up, so if it's too many, I'll obviously and without rancor limit the list down to ones with actual parties. (And still send folks, I just expect them to have no attention paid to them).

Got me by surprise, graah~

All my expeditions are open provided those attending are willing to listen to IC directives. If I'm /running/ it, going to touch the thing when I say "Don't touch the thing" is gonna result in you having a starcrossed relationship with your favorite limb. This said, I also don't need a giant swarm of people, so once I have arranged a competent team for each one I'll not be recruiting further.
