➥ Breaking It In
cw: mentions of apparent mutilation of/violence against animals and animal death
Characters are given a briefing by Reyes Amador that the kelpie encountered in the TDM prompt has likely come from Essex Bay. They know this due to triangulating disappearances and apparent marine mammal deaths. Reyes invites people to ask them questions about this mission and about ADI. Bonnie is also present to give her opinions.
➥ Move the Goalposts
cw: kidnapping, violence, sadism
Kelpies appear and attempt to kidnap characters from Gloucester. The only safe haven from the creatures if you can't fight them is ADI HQ and ADI Housing.
➥ Curveball
cw: kidnapping, violence/violence and mutilation against apparent animals, sadism, body horror, transformation, potential for claustrophobia
Kidnapped characters awaken to find the kelpies tormenting what seems to be a seal. It is not a seal, though. The kelpies cut the animal open to reveal it's a woman who's been trapped inside the sealskin. Kidnapped characters find themselves subject to the same fate. They are wrapped in sealskin and become psychically-linked selkies, hunted by the kelpies through the dark waters of Essex Bay.
➥ Below the Belt
cw: violence/violence and mutilation against apparent animals, body horror, gore
Characters on the Essex Bay mission arrive to find clever seals in the water being chased by horrible crocodile horse monsters. The kelpies attempt to hunt, capture, and kill the selkies and their would-be rescuers.
➥ Sticky Wicket
cw: potential for severe burns/injury, pain
Characters are tasked with fetching artifacts from a rundown portion of the Docks. The artifacts, if touched, induce 3rd-degree burns and a burning sensation across one's entire body. Additionally, characters may find themselves having to deal with some of the young punks around town who have claimed this part of the Docks for themselves and want what's in that box.

Re: QUESTIONS
no subject
Is the consequence of Shiro being disappointed in you not enough, Keith?This boils down to: How severe was the injury and did the character get caught doing this? If not, there will be no to few consequences. A verbal slap on the wrist and possibly a minor dock in pay for the job. Get caught at that and the reprimand is going to be stronger. You'll also likely find yourself paired with someone else for the next pick-up mission, someone ADI thinks they can trust more.
If characters actively let the punk die, rather than just be burned, that will be a much more serious consequence. They'll be barred from taking field missions for at least a week or two, and their pay will be reduced accordingly because they now have to cover that up for you. Thanks.
Characters who let the punks get hurt or actively fight them are also going to find themselves persona non grata around the Docks for a while. They're likely to be harassed more, albeit at a distance.

screamlol, what shiro doesn't know can't hurt him...Gotcha! One other question, will ADI be providing any other equipment besides basic weaponry? I'm thinking like tactical gear etc, or will they be insisting on plain clothes so as not to stand out? Keith is pretty likely to attempt missions in paladin armor as a precaution and was just curious if there was any specific policy on things like that.
no subject
For missions around town, they are going discourage flashy things like Keith's armor, but he'll mostly get verbal reprimands and told that, if he MUST wear that, he needs to tell people he's a cosplayer/something similar.
no subject
ONE LAST QUESTION....(for now)
Will there be an opportunity to speak to NPCs in the aftermath of the kelpie mission or should i specifically make a top level on the event post to do that?
no subject
Please make a TL and let us know in the subject line which NPC Keith is looking to talk to after the kelpie mission. Bonnie or Reyes will be available!
no subject
I posted a tl for this here! Hope it's not too late....
