He literally puts AP into being on-call for stuff like this; being favor-reachable is an explicit opt-in thing, and he gets free oodles of what-have-you-done-for-the-colleges-recently currency in exchange for mentor fluff.

It's his Duckling Club.

...now I want to actually see a negaverse chapter with players reacting to the sudden interrupt they got when their College favor sink action—which probably only exists because the quest has been running for so long they miraculously managed to beat the AP-hell—suddenly gets a background Nat-100 and we happen. Imagine a worn, tired group of questers about to reach the finish line... who just found a very interesting and unnaturally capable Magister on their radar. The panic would be amazing.

Also, I actually really want to fin coins for the first three dynasties of Nehekhara just so we can make a big book of coinage for them. Like, sure, we could throw down a book for each dynasty, but I feel getting something approaching a full history would just be a whole lot more impressive, and give a lot more information than has ever been had about Nehekhara before. Also, I imagine Mathilde would be curious about that snake coin—especially if it's a connection between Ranald and the Cobra god what's-his-name like I think—and we might run into Theurgy knowledge if we're lucky.
Hmm, actually, Cython hung out in Araby for a whole, right? And he mentioned a sun god IiRC during his previous social. I wonder if he might have run into some information on the Nehekharan gods and could tell us more.

Here is my reasoning why you should not vote for Panoramia

I've asked people not to do this.

people mostly only vote for her because of SV's Pathological need to make all female quest protagonists lesbians for no discernible reaso

I've told people not to do this, and evicted those that insisted on doing so.

But all jokes aside, I believe having Mathilde romance and marry a man would ultimately be more interesting in the long run because that way you can have child characters (Unless we do some crazy slaaneshi nonsense that's not happening with Panoramia)

Adoption and surrogacy both exist, and I definitely don't like them being implied to be lesser.

Rethink the way you're posting, or stop entirely.

How do posts get gilded status? Because this deserves it.
 
The votes are close, folks! A three-four way race for 3rd and 4th is happening as we speak.

Only a couple more entries for Cython to ursurp Eike, someone I've literally forgotten who is! Kasmir with a small but decent lead, Barak Varr coming in hot from the rear, and Johann looking sad from a comparatively distant 7th.

Note: There is an extra, misspelt vote for the dragon at the bottom, so it's tied for 4th!

Adhoc vote count started by Dermonster on Aug 30, 2020 at 1:30 AM, finished with 992 posts and 248 votes.

As someone raised almost solely by people I have zero blood relation to—for the first three quarters of my life at least—and having experienced both the worst and best it can offer, I can only agree wholeheartedly with this post.
 
[X] [ROMANCE] The Ice Dragon of Karag Zilfin

[X] Kasmir, to see how he's keeping himself busy in Sylvania.
[X] Julia, to see what she has gotten up to as Stirland's most experienced spy master.

[X] Follow up on your donation of the Skaven organ-vat, and see what has been made of it.
[X] The Gold College, to see what's become of their research into Skaven technology.
[X] The Amber College, to check in on the salamanders.
 
[X] [ROMANCE] Journeywoman Panoramia

[X] Pay a visit to your fief, to see if anything has changed. It probably hasn't.
 
Reminder to people looking at tallies that there is one un-consolidated Ice Dragon vote at the bottom due to a typo; as such, mentally add one to Cython's count. So it's currently tied for fourth with Eike, 103-103.

EDIT: And the count changed just as I made this post, smh.
EDIT2: And the person who made the typo just fixed it, meaning this post is now irrelevant. I am consigned to the dust of oblivion.

Fertility cult that predates the Empire, unknown to anyone else and is willing to kill to preserve the secret of their existence. And Jade Wizards do commonly carry sickles...

Is the Jade College a more benign cult of Ahalt the Drinker?

They worshipped 'the Earth Mother' and ascribed all their powers to this deity, and then Teclis turned up and said 'that's the Jade Wind, dummies'. Those that agreed became the Jade Order, those that didn't remain underground throughout the Empire. According to Panoramia, the Jade Order are split between those that want to pivot to Rhya worship, those that want to pivot to Shallya worship, and those that want to be irreligious.

Someone voting to romance the dragon because they want more dragon in the quest is valid. What I don't want is people doing so because they want that single social action with the dragon and nothing else.

Thought the romance options were their own thing?

@BoneyM could you clarify?

It's all competing for social actions, but I will be keeping track of the relative vote breakdown between them to gauge thread interest.

@BoneyM, given that Mathilde would be able to tell thanks to the coins, I'm curious what timeline you're using for Mourkain/Strygos? I imagine it's either Night's Dark Masters or 8th edition.

The Strigoi didn't even exist in 5th edition, 6th edition doesn't include a timeline but seems to agree with Night's Dark Masters (-1147, Kadon creates Mourkain, is later taken over by the Strigoi, Mourkain falls in -1020 to Orcs, Vorag was the first Ghoul King in -600), 7th edition has Kadon, the Orcs, and Vorag the same, but says that Ushoran found Strigos in -250 and fell to Orcs in -200, which means that Vorag- who in this timeline is called "The first and only Ghoul King"- predates Strigos itself, and then 8th edition keeps Kadon, the Strigoi takeover of Mourkain in -1020, and Vorag the same, but says that Strigos fell in -200, which means that Ushoran was instead ruling for nearly 1000 years and Vorag was a contemporary.

Off the top of my head, Kadon/Morkhain -1200ish, Ushoran takes over and renames it to Strygos in -1000ish, it falls in -200ish.

It seems like all this has been resolved by now, but for the record, definitely cool it. If you need an outlet for your enthusiasm, effortposts are much better received than thread spam. That counts for grumbling about non-romance social actions as well.

@ReImagined, keep in mind that there is a stray Cython vote hanging out at the bottom due to the voter misspelling "Karag" as "Karak." They've been pinged, but until then, either remember to group it with the main body of Cython votes or just mentally add one to the total you see after hitting tally.

There is no romance tag in that vote.
I argue they want to non-romantically hang out with the dragon.

Not the one I meant. A voter had misspelled Karag Zilfin as Karak Zilfin. They were tagged to fix their error and did so literal minutes ago. You can see it if you expand the tally from Dermonster's post earlier on this page and scroll to the bottom, since the tally was generated before the error was fixed.
