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!

[The path is dark, but the corridor seems shorter than the one they left behind. There isn't much to see on the walls, though the floor becomes gradually more and more uneven.]

[reminded]

[How odd. Was there less time to work on this part of the corridor? It doesn't bode well for the chances of the pharaoh's tomb lying ahead, but it's a bit early to turn back. As he's pondering this, he feels something shift underfoot, hears a click, and stops in his tracks.

He moves the light to his foot and sees a small square of floor depressed beneath his shoe. He must have missed its outline among all of the other aberrations in the stone. A touch nervously, he keeps his weight on the switch, just in case.]

We... may have a problem.

[She keeps moving forward, though his voice barely gets her attention, and she turns her head back toward him.] What are you doing?

[reminded]

[He pauses a moment to listen for anything strange. Nothing so far...]

I've stepped on some sort of hidden switch. It may be a trap.

[wise_maiden]

And do you intend to stand there until we find out what it is for certain?

... You have a point.

[He has a bad feeling about this, but he can't stand there forever. With trepidation, he slowly eases his foot off the switch...]

[... and falls straight through the sudden hole beneath him, his exclamation echoing back up as he travels down, down to an unknown location.]

[wise_maiden]

[........

Well then. It looked like there was only one direction left for her.

With one more look toward the hole, she frowns a little, before picking up her bag of artifacts and looking to the path ahead, excitement renewed. Some people just needed to be more careful.]
