TEAM DAQUIRI

After that strange Retrospec post, you may be wondering how to contact this "technician". Luckily, your phone or whatever device you have handy to check the network chooses that exact second to go haywire... Team Daquiri roster: Baren Kumou, Bucky Barnes, Futaba Sakura, Hitori Togusa, Iwatooshi, Izuku MIdoriya, John Steinbeck, Koutarou Takamura, Lalli Hotakainen, Mikleo, Yu Narukami. On whatever device you use to view the retrospec application, you may note the following scrolling on the screen instead of the usual options: ALERT: CRITICAL TIME-SPACE ANOMALY ACTIVE. SEARCHING FOR ADMIN... SEARCHING FOR ADMIN... DESIGNATED ADMIN CANDIDATE: EMPLOYEE #91962 M. MAHONEY PLEASE INPUT AUTHORIZATION CODE. The prompt does not seem to be for you, however, as the text prompts continue to scroll, this time with some input. > ********************** ACCEPT ADMIN STATUS Y/N? > y DESIGNATE PROGRAM TO RUN. PLEASE BE ADVISED WE ARE SYSTEM CRITICAL. > run subroutine designation echolocation-alpha CONFIRMED. EMPLOYEES ACTIVE IN AREA: 2 > list employees EMPLOYEES ACTIVE: M. FITZWILLIAM LEVEL 0 ACCESS, INTERN M. MAHONEY FULL SYSTEM ACCESS, ADMIN > search for alternative assets CONFIRMED. SENDING ALTERNATIVE ASSET LIST. Names scroll by on the screen. and look, there goes yours! It seems like someone is manually picking and choosing from a list of every Retrospec user who didn't disappear into the void, and several names queue up. > initialize support team CONFIRMED. TEAM DESIGNATION? > daquiri CONFIRMED. TEAM DAQUIRI MISSION PARAMETERS? PLEASE BE ADVISED SYSTEM ENERGY LEVELS ARE CRITICALLY LOW. > make contact with sysadmin > contact point entrance 1 > temporary access level 1 granted CONFIRMED. MISSION PARAMETERS SET. TEMPORARY ACCESS LEVEL 1 GRANTED. The screen clears itself, and instead of the familiar retrospec logo, there is simply TEAM DAQUIRI as a designation. the application will refuse to show anything other than a map, with one point highlighted in red. it is, of course, up to team members to decide whether or not they approach the access point. Team Daquiri's access point is in the Retrospec Basement. Team members will find they can access the Retrospec building and utilize the elevator to reach the Basement level so long as they approach it in a group of two or more team members. Only Team Daquiri team members can enter the Retrospec building at all at this time. Please see the Objective 1 toplevel for more information on what they can see when they enter the door! This is the Team Daquiri Event Log. You are free to toplevel and thread as you choose on this log, but only team members may utilize this log. Important links to mod toplevels are: Mod Questions & Participation Reporting. Please be aware you are responsible for reporting your own participation & objective completion efforts with links; the moderators will try to keep up with threads, but as we are currently running several teams with participation, we require you to keep us up to date! Please read each of the toplevels and instructions! The schedule for Team Daquiri is as follows: WEEK 1: Objective 1; CLEAR: Maurice; Miss Gracie WEEK 2: Objective 2; IC mission briefing; CLEAR: J. Wiseman WEEK 3: Objective 3; IC mission briefing 24th: Objective 3 closes (8PM EST), Final city-wide log posted (9PM EST) Objectives will be given in mod toplevels to this post with instructions; please check the log currently for Objective 1 to see how this will work. NPC interactions will be rnged from your team roster once per week, and toplevels for those will also be posted, although all team members can hear/see these interactions!

WEEK ONE OBJECTIVE

[recollecters]

Once the characters exit the elevator after going to the basement - and they will feel like they have gone down a long ways for a long while, and have to sit through charming elevator music the entire time (Cotton-Eye Joe, for some reason, elevator style) - they will walk out into a very sci-fi compound style area. You may view the area map HERE. The terminal is at the center of a metal catwalk that seems to hang over infinite darkness, and light flickers above it once or twice. Power doesn't seem to be getting to the terminal properly, however, so all you can see are flashes of a human figure.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Turn on the communications terminal.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: Submit 10 separate monster battle threads. Each of these threads must be done in different team-up combinations (i.e. the same pair may not submit 10 threads to pass the objective).

The primary objective is required to "win" objective one; completing the secondary objective is optional and may allow team members to gain extra tools to complete next week's objective. Threads which progress towards either objective should be reported to this toplevel. Your primary objective cannot be completed solo, and will require you to work as a team! At least 10 of 13 team members must participate to pass. You must also solve the objective; be sure to communicate with your teammates and please let the moderators know of any drastic player action; everything is currently locked and to open anything you must alert the moderators in the appropriate top-level here!

ROOM EXPLORATION

[recollecters]

Please respond here with which characters are in the group (at least two minimum, three maximum if you are requesting mod comments to the thread instead of simply flavor text; in these cases please let the moderator know the tag order in your request) and which room they are attempting to explore. Some rooms may remain locked until the second week!

Please note this is for OOC requests/information, not the exploration threads themselves, thank you!

[crudest]

HI LUCY, Baren and Bucky are trying to look into Room One!! How's that gonna go for them. Bucky's gonna try to break it down but once Baren stops thinking it's funny he'll probably try picking the lock.

[covenantal]

Not sure if this is strictly necessary, but Yu and Futaba are taking the terminal, with a third person and final in their group pending!

[arahoushi]

HELLO

Toshi and Koutarou are heading into Room 16 (Toshi is not Bucky, he's gonna try just opening the doors before the kicking starts). What kind of magical and amazing mod flavor text awaits them behind said door?

[kittycaterer]

HI!

Noctis and Togusa will be working to get into Room Two! Not sure how they'll be able to get in, but I guess Noctis will try to fuss with the doorknob or bust in. What awaits them????

[vitis]

hello! mikleo and john will be attempting to get into room 17, possibly using force if required. any luck there?

[lalliho]

Once Togusa and Noctis are done with Room 2, Lalli and Togusa are going to explore Room 3! (Maybe Noctis is Noodle wants, but who knows rn.)

While they're off doing that though, Lalli would first gently being trying to open and knock at the door -- if it's locked, he won't force it, just sit and wait. If by the time Togusa joins him there's no solution, they'll try breaking in.

[covenantal]

Hello Lucy! Yu, Mikleo, and Futaba are going to be tackling room 17 today! No established tag order yet. Anything I/we should know before we set up a top level?

[frostythehitman]

Is there a bathroom with a shower in it anywhere down here? I'd think so for Maurice's sake but lmao who knows

also, dana wants to know where the coffee machine is

MONSTER BATTLES

[recollecters]

If you would like to either request information for a specific monster or to ask for a moderator to play out a thread with you for that (2 characters minimum, 3 maximum) respond here! Please only request moderator comments for 1 battle per week per character, but feel free to request assigned monster attacks beyond that. You can use the Bestiary if you choose to do your own battles; Moderator-assigned monsters may pull from other sources than the Bestiary, however!

Please note this is for OOC requests/information, not the threads themselves, thank you!

[crudest]

How do Baren and Yu fight a monster. How do we summon one from the abyss. Can Baren mess with the security alarm that Bucky set off and tempt fate? How bad can I mess this up????

[fashioneebo]

Baren and Mikleo wanna get jumped by monsters! There was an attempt at responsible adulting, but it failed, I'm sure. They have tempted fate, so what are they gonna get for their troubles?

[frostythehitman]

Do monsters appear only if something was done to trigger them (i.e. attempt to break down doors, being Baren, etc.), or are they also just hanging around like random encounters in a vidya dungeon?
