Lechance

Greetings citizens!

First, a reminder: Our first two-week activity period is drawing to a close. Please make sure that all your pups have been active.

Next: Now that Leroy has names of citizens who are willing to volunteer for duties, he's making lists and organizing. In addition to the watch and patrol groups, he's come up with two more groups that he is going to send out "invitations" to. (These are more like "We could use your help with..." invitations and each character can refuse if they want.)

Each of these groupings will have plot participation hooks.

The names in parens below are the characters who are ICly "reportable to" for each group but please feel free to cross report if it helps move things along/create a thread/create interaction. We hope that the plot points will breed cross-group interactions.

Not every character is listed in a group. This is *not* intended to be a slight to you or your character. The lists were created from the IC and OC volunteering list and then from obvious abilities in profiles (For example, the inventors). If you see a group that your character would like to be included in, please respond here! If your character is listed in one group but you think he or she would be better in another, please let us know. If we missed names from either the town hall meeting or OOC post, please let us know. We want to get everyone involved! (Although, at this time, we'd prefer that each character only be in one group so that we can spread the joy.)

If you think your character does NOT fit into any of these groups, please PM (and tell us that you have) so we can give that character a plot point of their own if you wish them to have one.

Patrol (Jonas):
Delphina
Santiago
Delilah
J. Stanton
NOTE: Leroy would insist that they patrol in at least pairs (which also sets up interaction!). You can also have them patrol with an NPC deputy (please be gentle, these are Jonas!mun's NPCs).

Neighborhood Watch (Leo):
Sadie
Patrick
Ben
Hattie

Inventors (Leroy):
Edward
Julien
J. Ibis
NOTE 1: Leroy figures there will be some crossover here with the town's craftsmen such as Delilah, Santiago and Ben as well as the group explained below.

NOTE 2: We'd love to have some more names in this list! Even if your character has family background with inventions, they could help here!


Research (Leroy and Jonas):
Jay
Mercedes
Amy
Charles
Paul
Daniel
NOTE: Leroy tried to choose people with different perspectives to do research, try to figure out reasons and explanations for what's happening, etc. We feel they could interact with the inventors a lot, feed and react to information from the other groups and things like that.

Once the groups are finalized we will create filtered posts in Leroy's journal, setting each group on their first plot point.

PLEASE RESPOND BY TUESDAY, FEB. 10, TO HAVE YOUR CHARACTER'S GROUPING ADDED/CHANGED/OTHER!

And as always, if you have questions or suggestion, please ping!

Um, I'd forgotten all about this, but in her thread with Effie, Hattie was planning to have a tea party for the Beloveds. I'll post an invitation later, but there's no real need to reply.

Unfortunately, neither Hattie nor Effie appear to have met Edward or Amy in-game. Would you two like to assume that Hattie has run into them at some point? (Really, she should have run into Edward by now, since they're both passionate about cooking!) Or would you prefer to get one of the Beloveds you *have* met to invite you along?

Anyway. Hattie was planning to have her tea party on a Saturday afternoon, so unless it interferes with something the mods are planning (in which case, let me know!) I'll stick up a thread for the party tomorrow.
