First the geese then a bunch of things going missing. Is this normal for this place?

Apparently it's time for a game of lost and found but it's imperative that I find what I've lost.

It's a set of dog tags. Last name Katz on them.

This is more important to me than you could possibly know. Please. Anyone.

Adding to the list of lost items: my motorcycle keys. It's for a Harley Davidson Softail, and the keys should have the brand name on them.

Found:

Black-armored helmet that doesn't look very practical.

A leather bracer, well made.

A pink contraption with wheels like Adam's motorcycle, but a very light frame and it has pedals to push it? I'm trying to figure it out.

A notebook with hearts that have letters on the inside of each one. .... Not all of the hearts have the same letters?

If any of these are yours, let me know!

Also, if you go into the forest a lot, follow Gilmore's advice on avoiding any shambling undead, BUT ALSO if you go by the lake that's near my house, be aware there's an occupant in it! His name is Jörmungandr, and I promise, even though he's large*, he's very friendly! He talks, but it's an ancient language that's not widely known back home. I don't know how good I'll be at teaching it, but I can try if you want to talk to him? Please, he's lonel

Anyway just-- he might look scary, but he's actually smaller here than he would be at home. A fraction of the size! And I promise, friendly. Unless you're Thor. But don't worry, Torunn, I told him about you and he's okay as long as the Thor from my world doesn't show up! but I've been wondering if this world is prepping for

TEAM AVATAR

Hi! Hey! It's Atreus! You guys were looking for a flying ... bison? This morning in the field by my house there was a large white creature grazing, but he took off when he saw me and he went flying north. I've tracked him a little, but if he's yours, he might not take off running? Do you want me to show you where?

[OOC:* For OOC comparison's sake, Jormi is about the size of the movie Anaconda's snek, but is grey/blue and looks like this. But really he is friendly if your character wants to meet him/run across him.]

Hey.

[There's a shared image. More like a flash. It's not the image itself that's important, a statue of a green haired woman, but what it represents: psychic ability, illusion.]

You're like me.

Since it looks as though I'm not the only one who's lost something recently, I'm looking for a screwdriver. It's sonic. It looks...well, not very like a screwdriver at all, I suppose.

Metal cylinder, makes a noise. Very...sonic.

Right. Okay.

This might as well happen.

Okay. So everyone can see this, I guess. Bill? Eddie? Bev? Guys? I saw stuff from people saying it was you further up. Is it really you?

I hope so because this is fucked up and weird and if I'm the only one here, I really don't want to have to explain it later.

You're okay?

It's becoming apparent that this is a long term situation. Which means finding a job. Not that I'm technically qualified for anything.

I was hoping, maybe, there'd be something that someone might be able to make use of me for? I may or may not be trading on connections with this.

If nothing else, telekinesis has to come in handy, right?

Hello again, Vallo.

First off apologies to all the new arrivals I've not caught up with yet; my name is Anders, and I'm nominally in charge of the Magical Research division of Outlanders. Which mostly means keeping track of who's interested in learning what and trying to bring like-minded people together and secure them a chunk of the DOA budget to put towards said learning. If there's things you want to know about Magic, let's talk.

Normally when I do one of these things it's a "Hey, we poked a thing and learned some stuff" information dump or a "Hey, does anyone know about this thing?" net-throw. Today, apparently, I'm here to talk about skeletons.

I'll preface this, for the newer Outlanders, with the fact that the Waypoints don't just pull in fascinating heroic sorts like all of you. Occasionally they also bring through things with knives for arms, or bear-owl hybrids, or angry murder chickens. This week (I say week, I don't know how long this latest madness is going to last) it's decided to pull from Thedas, which is home for a few of us.

So. Skeletons. Specifically, skeletons possessed by demons who, on finding out they've ended up in a dead host rather than a living one, go crazy and start trying to destroy anything with the audacity to not be dead like them. There are a few different sorts, dependent on what manner of demon is doing the possession - some are fast and vicious, some are slow and lumbering - but all of them are vulnerable to fire. Or being smashed with extreme prejudice, if that's more your thing. Be aware they like to attack in numbers, and have a tendency to pretend to be dead before launching an ambush.

Fortunately for us, most if not all of the demons are going to be too weak to break through what passes for a Veil here and instead will die with the host. Otherwise we'd have a whole different problem.

Unrelatedly, I'm still looking into finding a space we can use to store anything dangerous or just potent-and-unwanted that comes through (new people: sometimes Vallo gives you things or places instead of people, we're not sure why or how). If you've got ideas, I'm all ears.

Questions, comments, recommendations for where to source new flavours of sugary whipped air all welcome.

Well, I think I've been here long enough to come to terms to the fact that I will not returning to Ravka anytime soon so I might as well start a life here.

What do people advise here in terms of starting your own business?

NIKOLAI

One of my amplifiers is missing. The dragon scales. Nikolai, it's gone. I've looked everywhere.

Hi, Brigitte here!

I was getting a pastry from Porthos (if you haven't had some of the MAGIC he puts together, let me take this moment to highly suggest it. They go great with some of Torunn's mead. Okay now I want more, but that can wait)-- sorry, let me start over. I was getting a pastry and I found some of Jester's stuff.

How do I know it's hers, and why am I coming to all of you instead of her? Well, funny story. One of the things I found is her phone. The other is her sketchbook. And I might've peeked in the sketchbook JUST TO MAKE SURE. And did you know she likes to draw penises all of you? And there's one of me? It's flattering, no way I look that good.

Anyway, I want to get it back to her. Could you help me track her down?

I don't really do well with the whole sitting around thing so I need to find something to do with myself here. Before I go insane Back home I worked for the UN, I'm sure there isn't really something like that here but I'm adaptable and a quick learner so I'll take any suggestions you might have.

I also wouldn't mind helping run a community center or something like that if there isn't one already.

I seem to have come across some kind of cuffs? They're very well made and beautiful. I guess I'm a little late to the lost and found party.

I don't really know how this place works yet, but I've obviously noticed there's been a lot of losing and finding going on around the city. So before I turn this in to whatever authorities, is anyone missing a wallet? Has some pictures in it, if you want to identify it. Cute kid.

It turns out that I'm an Animal Whisperer now.

Either that, or Trinket's just that good at making new best friends. It's kind of cute, really, as long as he doesn't replace me with his new wolf companion.

Okay, so to add to the list of stuff that went missing - is anyone missing a picture? It's a little grainy maybe, but it's in a nice frame, of a good looking guy in a cowboy hat? He's got dark hair and a little bit of a beard.

I found it not far from the Amicitia estate.

Do you need any last minute help with anything?
