[ ARCHIVED ] [ task board ]

— OLD TASK BOARD —



CURRENT TASK BOARD CAN BE FOUND HERE.


In addition to the standard business jobs, there are also independent jobs, or "tasks," that can be done by anyone. These are more "mercenary" like in the sense that anyone can post one and anyone can take it. They range from asking for a helping hand to run an errand to gathering a hard to get item to exterminating a dangerous monster roaming too close to farms. Some jobs may even be related to the plot or an event.

Feel free to play around with the jobs. Some can even become mini plot events with the right people, and players can create jobs in relation or as a reaction to a posted job. You don't have to feel like you need to restrict yourself to the small blurb in the description, so have fun with it!

Every month, roughly twenty (20) potential job postings are placed on the board, with the occasional updates from submitted tasks. These jobs are posted in a large central bulletin board located in a building called The Task Center in Merchant's Square. It's overseen by a group who collects the fees, posts the listings, monitors who takes what, and gives the appropriate payment.

Jobs are an excellent way to not only get money, but also to create emotional drops because most jobs require more than one person. Even if the job itself could be done solo, it is still possible to bring in a friend to help. Unless the job specifies, there is nothing preventing the job taker from asking for aid. We do encourage that those taking the more "quest" like jobs to bring in a partner.

General Tasks are "repeatable" and can be done by multiple parties at various times. They do not require a partner although it is encouraged. Many of these can be considered as "soloable" and can be handwaved. Special Tasks are on a first come first serve basis and are considered more difficult than the General ones. It is safe to assume that any jobs requiring some aspect of fighting will be of higher difficulty and will need at least two people to take the target(s) down.

Jobs that are part-time in nature or have no definite ending period can be considered open for the entirety of the month. You are free to ask for more details and whether it can become a more "permanent" job for your character.

It can be assumed that payment is received upon completion, but only if the job is successful. We're going to trust the players and not require any link of "proof." So keep in mind that payment can be deducted or adding depending on job performance. If you have any questions about certain tasks and if payment would be altered under certain circumstances, just reply to your initial comment and we'll give you an answer.

Note: although handwaving jobs is allowed, you can only do so twice a month. Others you will have to thread out or have some kind of log regarding the job. For jobs that could be repeated indefinitely (such as part-time like jobs), the handwave limit does not apply.

The spreadsheet representing the task board can be found here.

To take on a job, select which one you wish to do and comment to the entry with the following form:




— SUBMISSIONS —


If you have an idea for a task OR if you have a character who would post up a task, submit it here! We're always open and welcome fresh new ideas. Some tasks can even lend to the plot, including yours.

Just fill out the form and we'll add it ASAP.



If you have a business you have that you would like to be added to the Jobs & Businesses list, fill out the form and we'll add it ASAP. You can even use the above task form to go ahead and start putting in tasks for your business!

TASK SUBMISSION

Player: Rina
Type: General
Task description: Construction has already begun on the Asian bathhouse and spa I wish to open near the lake, but I need some extra help making the pools. Through experimentation, I've discovered that I can create depressions in the ground by using dunamis, but I alone cannot harness enough energy to make a pool that's deep enough and that's where your help comes in. Then if dunamis is not your strong point, I will also accept anyone willing to dig up part of the pool. Shovels will be provided, along with free snacks and water. Everyone will be shown the blueprints and directed to the area where they will work.
Reward: 50 sylvs/hour plus one month of free access to all the bathhouse and spa's services.
Requester: Yao Wang
Questions: Should I have listed this under BUSINESS SUBMISSION? I didnt think it would fit under that category since the bathhouse & spa is still under construction. Then I hope the whole "making depressions in the ground with dunamis" is acceptable? I've been discussing this upcoming business with Laena and was told that theoretically it is possible, just not practical for one person. Hence the purpose of this task.

Task Submission

[personal profile] thefirstbloom 2016-05-02 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Keely
Type: General
Task description: Since a certain sylvari has been gathering a bunch of strays for feeding, the cats of Verens have formed a gang. That's right. A cat gang. With numbers to rival the G's, there have been cats laying around in mass all over the city. While this is great for reducing the rodent population, it's not doing our citizens as much of a favor. There are potted plants getting eaten and knocked off windowsills, garbage getting strewn down out into the street as they look for scraps, and there is fur. Everywhere. Help everyone — especially those allergic — by catching them and bringing them to a shelter!
Reward: 50 sylvs per cat
Requester: Verens Adoption Centers Everywhere
Questions: Nope!

Player: Jude Mathis
Type: Special
Task description: In order to discover why some ordinary people are able to see Seraphim, we need as many volunteers as possible to attempt looking at them. Inquire at the Asclepius Clinic for more information.
Reward: Free refreshments and an informative pamphlet on protecting your health when the seasons are changing
Requester: Jude Mathis & Sorey
Questions: With luck I'll post a log for it later in the month.
Also requesting if the blurb for the clinic description could be updated since Naomi's no longer here.

TASK SUBMISSION

Player: Nadia
Type: Whatever works best.
Task description: This is more of an idea, but maybe something where some characters have to go and research off the wall subjects about the world. Nothing that would affect the plot, just random weird cultural bits that we totally know the mods have thought up and never had an excuse to let characters find out about.
Reward: Up to you guys!
Requester: Maybe some native kids doing reports.
Questions: No questions

Type: Special
Task description: You know, I agreed to let someone store a few statues for just a short time. Well, it's now been two months. Someone figure out something to do with them because seriously, I can't handle all these birds perching on them anymore! Oh and also, clean the bird poop up as well.
Reward: Up to you!
Requester: Any random NPC is fine.
Questions: Just a note that these are the victims of ST0308 a couple of months back. The "statues" are actually people who were petrified. They can be cured with anything that can cure a petrify/stone status effect.

Type: Either could work.
Task description: I met this really amazing woman at the festival and I know she's the one! But I don't know how to actually tell her this. Please give me your best ideas for how to propose to the girl of your dreams!
Reward: A small reward for each submission, 100 sylvs to the one he/she picks.
Requester: A random male or female NPC is fine.
Questions: Note, the weirder the idea on how to propose, the better!

Edited to add: This can also be the same person as Luna's idea below and can come a few months after that one.

TASK SUBMISSION

Player: Luna
Type: General
Task description: So. The Flower Festival helped kickstart a lot of budding romances, but some of them still need a bit more help... which is why one such half of a new couple is in desperate need of someone to help write him a love poem for his new girlfriend. (He would do it himself except he sucks at poetry.) Anyone can submit poems, and he'll pick his favorite to give to her.
Reward: Up to you guys! Probably not a lot, though, given the task in question...
Requester: A random NPC
Questions: None at the moment!
