(Summary) Babel Restoration

Timeframe

OOC: 7/19/2020 - 7/24/2020

IC: Lamashan 19th - Lamashan 25th, 44 IA

Ran by: Rednal

Description

Attention, citizens of Babel! As part of our reconstruction efforts, we've been repairing damaged areas of the city and setting up new institutions to give you, our citizens, a better sense of safety and security. We're pleased to report that a group of craftsmen removing old buildings recently uncovered a vault full of the crystalline objects known as Flask Shards. While they had the rights to keep these items under the terms of their salvaging and repair contracts, they've decided to distribute these items to adventurers helping make Babel a better place. For about eight hours of work in the city sometime in the next week, you can get one of these Flask Shards as a reward. Whether you keep it for its healing properties or use it to power up an item is, of course, up to you!

The Rules:

By spending 8 hours of Downtime helping clean, secure, rebuild, or otherwise support the city of Babel through volunteer work, you may claim a +1 Flask Shard (see http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/marvelous-items#toc83 for details on these items) and gain 10% of the XP required to reach the next level on the character spending this downtime, to a maximum of 3200 XP. (For example, going from 3rd to 4th level requires 4000 XP, so you can gain 400 XP from this.) You may spend this downtime anytime from Lamashan 19 to Lamashan 25. You may only claim these rewards on one character, and you may only claim the reward once. Post your downtime spent (including a description of your activities) and rewards claimed here in the Downtime Events channel.
