A Call To Adventure

In one of the aforementioned seedier parts of town, a notice seemed to be... typed underneath this one, literally on a handkerchief.

"I wanna come"

~Nnoctor

 

“I am a sailor, tradesman, and a licensed Doctor! Hooray hopefully he’ll accept my application,”

the Kathar pins a note with his mailing address and his skills. izzdar Rashida

 

Valhona Gloryfern looked over one such notice, slowly going through the bullet points, one by one.

An adventurer's spirit.
They were sure they certainly had that. Well, at least, they hoped they did.
Training in diplomacy, combat, and leadership.
Diplomacy... was never their strong suit. But they got along with people well enough, and they minded their manners! And they had indeed trained for combat. They had absolutely no leadership experience, but that would just have to do, they supposed.
People who are good at thinking of names for groups. (NEEDED URGENTLY)
They got thinking as soon as they saw it.
'The Regalian Adventuring... League. The Regalian Adventuring... Giuld? The Regalian Adventuring Union?'
Maybe something besides 'The Regalian.' It was too general. they'd have to ask if the group had any symbols or motto, or colors, perhaps. Ooh- they wondered if the group had a flag, or something of the like! That sure would be neat.
Common sense.
. . .oh. I mean, they were pretty smart! Well, not really- they were still getting used to the hustle and bustle of the city, and, admittedly, they'd fallen for scams more then a few times, but... they were sure they could think critically when push came to shove. Probably.
-But not too much.
Oh, thank goodness.
Medics, hunters, and sailors.
Medics! They were a medic! They were both a mundane and occult healer, which they prided themselves on. And they could hunt! Well, they could hunt decently. But if the crew didn't mind a little magic, they could be super helpful with the food situation!

The Yanar bit their lip, mulling it over. It did sound fun. And exciting. And the flier did promise treasure, travel, and a good tale to tell... hmm. They'd have to check with their Cenn, but... but they'd decided to send a letter to this Mr. Arnyn.

The letter was printed on a slightly grass-stained parchment with a glossy ink, the paper emitting a floral scent. A few words are scratched out; the author seemingly having trouble spelling. It reads as follows;

13 Breukelaan, Regalia,
March 22, 311 AC.

Sera Wilvamair Arnyn,
I do hope this letter finds you in good health! After seeing your flier earlier today, and reading it over, I have to say your group has sparked my interest. If it's true what you say, that this group will embark on adventures of daring and glory, then I would certainly love to join you! I'd like to officialy formally apply! I beleive think I could be a great asset to your crew, as I do possess combat, medical, and maintenance expeir expirience skills. I already have ideas for the name of the group, too! Maybe something like 'The Regalian Adventurer's Union' or 'The Guild of the Merry,' if those are any good. I was wondering what symbols the group may be ascociated using, as I could definitely find some inspiration there. Lastly, I'd like to assure you of my spirit. I am ready and determined to pursue any quest, face any challenge, and perform any feat! It is my honor to apply! Thank you for your time.

For your consideration,
-Mx. Valhona Gloryfern

P.S: I am a Mage, and a Yanar, if the information is relavent important to your decision.

 

Sutoya's eyes narrowed as he read the page, adjusting his glasses. Giving a sigh, he rolled his shoulders, producing a journal and a pencil, and began to write.

"Wilvamair,

I am a healer, yet with magic, and am rather skilled in the diplomacy part of things. I also have a few other things up my sleeve, but that's for a later date.

I'm proficient in firearms and other weapons if need be, and can come up with aliases if the situation calls for it.

I do hope to hear soon, as I would love to help you in your adventures.

- Sutoya Ivaylo."

Pinned to the post by a blade of fog was a fairly simple, nicely-written addition.

Sera Wilvamair Arnyn,
I cannot assure you I come with good names, but I can assure you of my skill wielding magicks and my knowledge of mythical beasts; their tracking, their felling, where they roost, and how to summon them, as well as my skill in command.

We have had our differences recently, I hope that this venture may be a first step toward their resolution.

A certain Ailor was examining one of the notices scattered around the city. Finally, he wrote his own application underneath and pinned it.

"Sera Arnyn,

I know it's certainly been a while, but we both know I love adventure as much as anyone. That's what got me to throw my hat in the ring in the first place, because even though Regalia has a lot to offer, I agree that there's more outside of our beloved capital city.

You may already have a rough idea of what I have to offer, but I'll mention it anyway.

• An adventurer's spirit.
  • This has already been mentioned above. There's always more to see or feel, so count me in on any adventures that await.
• Training in diplomacy, combat, and leadership.
  • Unfortunately, I never got around to doing any real diplomatic or commander training. However, you know that I know a bit about magic and combat after my years at Fenn Mohér and with the Anglian Witches. It might not have been asked for specifically, but I'm your man when it comes to cryptic, ancient, and fancy-looking inscriptions that point to some sort of mythical creature or long lost treasure. Reading maps might also not hurt.
• People who are good at thinking of names for groups. (NEEDED URGENTLY)
  • I've never been good with names.... Maybe "The Snarling Angels", " The Winged Lancers" or "Rovers of the Tempest"?
• Common sense.
  • Feel free to hit me if I use too much.
• Medics, hunters, and sailors.
  • I was never much of a medic. I used to dabble a bit in hunting, though that was largely limited to occasional excursions into Anglia and Kintyr that went awry. I could offer the ley lines to guide us to our destination, it makes travel over large expanses of water faster and cheaper. However, if you want the travel time and feel of boats, I'm sure I can fund one or two, and I'll check around with some contacts in Kintyr. The art of sailing is a bit... unfamiliar to me, but nothing that a little magic can't fix.

You know where to find me or knock on my door.

Signed,
Lynmard Lomstedt
Swordsworn of the Bloodcast Order
Baron of House Gwentyr"

 

A letter would be pinned at the bottom of the notice posted, written with exemplary handwriting on House Abansaddi stationary. It read,
"To Sera Arnyn,
I'm not certain of how much use a poet may be to your coalition, though I've trained nearly my whole life in the art of written word, diplomacy, and have experience from the Eronidas military. In addition to this, I've been told I'm rather good at naming groups. Perhaps a name such as 'The Tempest Company' or simply 'The Squall.' I took inspiration from your lightning-bolt insignia, I think it's a rather powerful symbol to base the group's name of.
Sincerely,
Lord Aaro A. Abansaddi
Barony of Pol Shubat."

 

A small but detailed letter would be posted along with the many others. The Vikström seal of an owl and snake stamped atop it and read the following message:
​

To Sera Arnyn,

Though I am known to not be a fighter I feel I can offer aid to your growing band of adventurers with my other skills. I have been a known diplomat and scholar and offer those services as well as my skills in medicine if you are in need. I can also offer motivation that proves to empower my allies when needed. My common sense may be "too much" but I will leave that up to you. For names perhaps "The Culmination" or "The Remnants of Valor" would fit but those are only two that pop into my head. Maybe a better name will come to me later on. Until then I hope we can work together in the near future.​

Best of Luck & Sincerely,

Tuija Vikström
Countess of Risøyhamm
Imperial Hostess​

 

"No, yeah thats me"

 

A red envelope would arrive addressed to the Sera. It was a deep blood red with gold accents around the sides and back, his name in a gorgeous cursive. It was sealed in a gold wax with the Blàrach crest.

Spoiler: If you can't read the cursive

Dear Sera,
I wish to join your squad of adventurers. I am a diplomat, a general, and I am handy with technology. I also have a flying horse. What more could you want. I hope to hear back from you soon.
Signed,
Natharia Blàrach, Countess of Atherdin
