🎁 Gift Progression and Inventory Log

OOC Notes: This post can be used by PCs to keep track of their inventory for Magisteria. This includes both the gifts that each character received on arrival, as well as other rewards, prizes, or bling collected throughout one's time in the game. For the arrival gifts, those will develop as characters continue their journeys in Magisteria. Please reply below with the following information:

---

Your character's current gift:
What was your character's activity in Magisteria [since the last gift upgrade*]?
[Quests, event participation, completing Synthesis challenges, player plot stuff, etc. -- the more the better as far as gift upgrades.]
What kind of modifications would you like to see and/or what complementary gift would you like?* **

---

[ * because a gift growing can sometimes take the form of complementary offerings or something(s) to go with the OG gift.

** you can also say "Surprise me!" -- and, for that matter, it should be noted that PCs may get something that is mod's particular flair or spin on whatever upgrades they ask for. mod reserves the right to potentially put spins on requests, but will try to ensure that the results are satisfactory for everyone]

To Lucy:

To begin with... one might say that I regard High Rise Village as though it were my backyard, as it were. There are some who deem me a benefactor for this, others who criticize me for the same. But, having seen my handiwork in Evergreen Terrace, you will have some idea of the quality I maintain in this sector which I regard as the realm of my influence.

Unblemished perfection. That is my aspiration, my ideal. Think of it as you will, but I take care that all in my employment and periphery are trained to understand, aspire, and maintain this ideal. Certainly crime of the sort you speak of has no place in a society in which all citizens are guaranteed a basic income, in which all citizens have a chance to meet their aspirations. Look at those whom you have met: Atlas, Ava, Malik, Rosalind, the women of the Entertainment District. Are they not successful? Contented? Their needs are met and shall always be met. They know not poverty nor want.

Yet I shall not mislead you. Even in our society of abundance and plenty, there are those who find something that they seek to oppose. In the darker corners of the Entertainment District, and sometimes edging even into this, my own, in the back alleys -- though not, I should say, as soon as anyone with whom I am affiliated becomes aware of it -- there are certainly such stirrings. You may of course ask how, if my reach is such as I claim, any gangs could evade my gaze and sully my realm.

That brings me to what is ultimately my answer to your question (or rather, what I think is the most interesting and salient answer: there are pockets of "disturbance" all throughout Magisteria, ranging from the back alley in the Agrarian Enclave populated by the feral fowl, to the shadier black markets within the Market, to the seedier and more underground portions of the Harbor District) -- there is, in particular, one other place, one which poses something of a difficulty and intersects with all the others. I was not supposed to speak of it to you so soon, but since you asked directly, I would be remiss not to mention the eleventh district of Magisteria, the Undercity. It is there where the supernatural beings of Magisteria reside, there where our city's laws hold no sway, and where these criminal organizations' members can escape and form new connections.

But neither I nor any other authority shall tell you how to enter such a place. Nor could we help you access it even if we desired to do so. Its dimensions, its rules, are inherently different from the above world, and its manifestation will be of its own accord. Explore as you like, but take caution, Lucy. There are things in this world of ours that are not easily digestible to the mind of a mortal.

Regards,
A.V. (my initials)
