-[X] Passive Actions
--[X] Establish Rikardsby, it's a modest plot but it's in prime real estate with plenty of room to expand nearby, this is going to be where the majority of his non-adventure time and attention is going into, making sure it's safe, secure, and most importantly, reasonably safe for his family to move into. Proper warded fence, dwellings, the works.
--[X] When he's in town and otherwise doing business, he'll be working on the local language, keeping tabs on the local gentleman and his son. Partially to make sure he's not being abused too badly, but also because the entire point was getting a guide here.

A dwelling large enough to house the four of them, himself, his mother, and his two siblings, is the goal. Maybe one of those blessed with a touch for Stone or Wood would be amendable to a Trade in the future, Fresh Meat for Worked Walls and Floors, but that's a matter that will have to wait until Fresh Meat is had.

[X] Torgarr VillageFeeder
-[X] Major: The Jarl wants farming to be done? Torgarr is here for it. He pours the greater share of his attention into multiplying the contents of the seedbanks through his labors... and of course, to farm properly, one must learn the crop. The meager supplies brought from home are fairly well-understood, of course, but differences in the weather and the soil are still significant, and he does pay attention for what adjustments shoudl be made. For the newer plants, they are comfortable in the local clime, but he doesn't know them at all well. Over a season of caring for the crop, and seeking to better commune with and understand it, he fixes that flaw in himself... and brings the lore of it back to the rest of the survivors, that all might benefit.
-[X] Passive: Torgarr is going to spend time setting up his farm, using his powers of Plant and Earth. He plants fruit trees for fences and encourages them to grow a bit (he'll encourage them to weave together later, once they have some more height on them). He uses fruit trees and a bit of earthshaping to try to grow himself a house. After all, why would you prefer a house that doesn't produce food for you? It's fairly rudimentary for the moment, but he'll grow it better later, once the trees in question have grown enough. Possibly ask for a spring from that girl who makes the springs. A local source of water is always nice.

[X] Gefjosa Auslaugsdottir
-[X] Major Action: Use Farming Knowledge, Ox Fylgja, and Plow Kunna to make/help make the most beautiful, gorgeous, lovely productive farm possible on Njall's land.
-[X] Minor Action: Build small (deeply sad) cottage at the edge of my land adjoining Njall's cleared land. Too worried about being eaten by trees to start clearing that alone.

[X] Amlóði Tooth taker's actions this turn
-[X] Major Action: Scout hills to the north of Rikardsby with Rikard's party

-
-
[X] Erik Hardhead
-[X] Passive: Erik builds his family a house. Another house. He feels kind of rushed and it's not his best work, except one very tight and leak-free corner for his daughter, little Ingfrid, to lay her head in.
-[X] Passive: Erik, often accompanied by his wife or mother, sometimes both if the weather is warm enough to bundle up Ingfrid and carry her along, all walk the property, blazing markers and looking it over, mostly with an eye to picking out several places to plant crops- grain and flax, the basics. Hard to be sure where they'll do best. Any other resources, such as good clay or whatnot, that catch their eye will of course be on the list.
-[X] Passive: Start preparing the fields. Erik's family probably won't bring in a bountiful harvest on their first try in a new land, but it'll be something.
-[X] Passive: Erik occasionally trades good woodworking for food. This may be helpful to some others, especially the fishermen.
-[X] Major: They're going to need some real food during the long, long wait for the first, probably unsatisfactory, harvest to come in. Erik joins his cousin Bjorn Bjarneson ( @Walliseatscheese )on some of his hunting trips. Things may get wacky.

-[X] Active Action: Join in Gunnar Toad-Terror's hunt for the Gravity Lizard
-[X] Passive Action: Attempt to Ward the freshwater pool/spring created by Liz Clearwater to repel smaller lifeforms and grains of dust/detritus. (IE, ward the freshwater pool/spring itself so that it remains pure/clean.
-[X] Passive Action: Carve Runes of Bloodletting and whatever the equivalent for enhancing something's perception of touch/physical contact to the tips of the Stakes in the light trenchworks (assuming they are there). Ideally-- these runes should be triggered by the stakes drawing blood, with the bloodletting then hindering the wound being clotted and said entity then continuing to bleed (to continue to power the runes even more), with the perception enhancing runes amplifying the pain felt.
-[X] Passive Action: Using their Fire-Kunna and some of the branches from the felled/cleared trees, plant them in clusters around the inner perimeter of the light-trenchworks (so on the side with the Settlement), and when the sun begins to set each night before going to sleep, set them alight to provide those on Guard duty with visible light with which to see by, and (some semblance of) warmth.
