EVENT LOG: SCAVENGER HUNT

[lucetimods]

Who: All you scavenger hunters!
What: Scavenging and other fantabulousness, I suppose.
When: November 24th to 28th
Where: The whole village! And yet also all over time and space...
Summary: See this post for more info.
Rating: P for Points! (Keep it PGish, folks. Anything worthy of a higher rating can be brought to your appointments posts.)

As announced by CJ, the village's immediate environs are divided up according to this map. There are five areas: the Nile, Ice Age, Space Opera, Shogunate, and Gangland. Time-and-place appropriate architecture and conjured up NPCs exist in each area.

Don't forget the scavenger hunt! While actually finding things is ultimatly optional, you can find more information on the hunt here. If you want to claim a reward from the hunt, be sure to link at least two related threads on the new rewards claims post.

Finally, here's a quick rundown of the objects:
- In THE NILE: A ceremonial dagger and a piece of Pharoah's treasure
- In GANGLAND: A tommy gun and a set of car keys
- In ICE AGE: A bone spear and a smilodon's tooth
- In SPACE OPERA: a raygun and part of a robot
- In SHOGUNATE: a samurai sword and water from a kappa's head

Happy hunting!

[ Nojiko honestly has no idea what to do with this, so she's functioning on completely ignoring it to whatever degree she can. It's actually her first event, and mostly she's just. "Whatever" about it. She's going to be going about her daily routine to the extent she's managed to establish one, and will just try to avoid the weirder portions of the town for the time being - that means she's pretty much only going to be found in Egypt, where she lives, or the Ganglands, where 1) she works and 2) all the shops are found. She will never go near the Ice Age due to cold, and while she might venture into the Shogunate, she's also probably going to avoid the Space Opera.

Find her going about errands or in the bakery or Good Spirits. She may also have to pause to stare at some of the weirder portions of this event, i.e. the pharoh's palace. Where the hell did that thing come from.

Costumes are: Egypt & Ganglands! ]

[You totally want an escort to your workplace and back don't you, Nojiko? Because once Nami wakes up and realises what's going on (well...at first glance, dear god hello desert) she (a) swears up a storm and (b) finds Nojiko, poking her head around her sister's door. Sup. Your sister is back to being dressed like an Alabastan dancing girl. :Db]

Nojiko? Are you still going to work?

[bluemikan]

[ Nojiko herself has a sort of typical Egytian theme going on, and just looks up from attempting to locate anything else in her closet. There's no cigar in that way, so she'll just. Shut the door. ]

As long as it's still there. [ Which, if you've looked out the window, is not a sure thing. ] May as well check, anyway.

[ If she were Gen she would probably be upset about all that skin, Nami. ...Nojiko really isn't in a position to talk, though, and furthermore doesn't care, so. ]

[mikangirl]

[Gen would have a fit if he saw Nami in the summer around here. She sighs, blowing her bangs out of her face.] Well, given the lay of the land out there... I'll go with you. Even if they've changed things around at least I can keep you from getting lost.

[And, you know. Just in case there are other things out there than 'desert'. Because just waking up to the desert doesn't strike her as the most interesting experiment the Malnosso could have done. There's going to be more to it.]

[bluemikan]

[ Nojiko probably wouldn't argue this point even if there weren't a surprise desert outside of her window. But in this case? Especially not going to quibble. Nami's the navigator, after all. ]

I'm pretty much set to leave. ...Do experiments usually change things this much?

[mikangirl]

Yes and no. The environment, they usually leave alone, but work all their wonderful changes on the people. [You can tell by the flat tone of her voice exactly what Nami thinks of that.] This isn't so bad, I guess. If this is all they've done.

[bluemikan]

[ Yeah, Nojiko can't say she likes the idea, either. ] And there's no way to tell if they've done that or not.

[ ...Well then. No use worrying about it. ] Well, I'm ready to go when you are, then.

Day 2 The Nile

[toujoursfluer]

[Robin comes up on you while you are staring at the Pharoh's Palace.]

Hello, Nojiko-san. [She glances at your outfit] You seem to be enjoying yourself.

Day 2 The Nile

[bluemikan]

[ She'd change the outfit if she could, Robin. ...Well, maybe not. It's best suited to the weather. In any case, Nojiko gives Robin a half smile. ]

Maybe? It's...interesting. A bit of a headache to switch from era to era, though. You?

Day 2 The Nile

[toujoursfluer]

I haven't left this one yet. Though I have to say that being in the desert with a blue-haired woman does bring a certain level of nostalgia.

[Good and bad nostalgia, admittedly. But she'd still like to see a Bananadile again for all that she disliked them when she was there.]

Are you planning to go in and set off any ancient curses?

[Because that's her plan]

Day 2 The Nile

[bluemikan]

Alabasta and Princess Vivi? [ She's guessing, based on what other people have told her at different points in time.

Robin's question just gets a look. A sort of "are you serious?" look. ]

Of course not. I'm planning to avoid curses, ancient or otherwise.

[snikting]

[Logan sure is grateful to be at the bar. Sure, he looks good, but that's irrelevant. Because she's behind the bar and that means one thing:]

You, lady. You real?

[bluemikan]

[ Nojiko looks up from her drink, curiously. ]

Last I checked. Need something?

[snikting]

A stiff drink would be nice.

[He just wanted to know the tone to take. He wasn't being so nice to the NPCs.]

[bluemikan]

[ ...Well she's not actually working there, but hey, why not. She's seen Nami grab drinks before, and since no one seems to be handy at this exact moment...just give her a second, and Logan will have a drink. ]
