CALLING ALL SEELIE

Hello everyone!

As you may be aware, the Unseelie are currently transporting a prisoner known as Raonil (or Isengrim) to Maupertius.

Having found this out through Unseelie leaks Lancelot urged Kaldur to tell Ridire, who said 'well go get him then'. Since Kaldur was busy, he kindly bounced that task back into Lancelot's lap.

(Thanks bro.)

So Lancelot will be looking for volunteers! However, since he has been warned there may be an Unseelie spy in the ranks he will not be advertising that -- he will be doing it subtly.

What This means:
★ Lancelot will advertise that he is now helping Seelie Marshal Gwenllian and they are going to have training sessions. These will be Open to All Skill Levels. It will be made a point of that if you have never held a weapon you can come and learn. If you are an expert, Lancelot can help you learn Shard Manipulation which he learnt form Reynard. That will boost the strength/speed/etc of your character!
★ Lancelot and Gwenllian will then make a private assessment based on the way everyone who turns up behaves and go to some people to recruit them into the negotiation/ambush team. They will not inform this team of the later part of the plan. Everything will be a little need-to-know to try and avoid leaks where possible.
★ Lancelot and Gwenllian will also start to recruit for another team who, if the first team succeed, will be a second ambush on Reynard using Raonil/Isengram as bait. Note that No success is guaranteed on getting hold of Raonil so this team may need to stall or regroup or do something else but Lancelot will need to get one prepared regardless because he is planning ahead.
★ Lastly, there will be a final plan, that only a few people will be aware of, to regroup everyone (+ possibly a few extra trusted people) to make an attempt to claim Maupertius if this all success.

Full Plan with other details and considerations is here for the curious. Nothing is set in stone -- this is the plan being made ICly and it can ICly fail at any point and disaster can descend. I cannot stress this enough!

SO.

Tell me what you would like to do! PLEASE NOTE you can absolutely come to training and not get involved in anything else. The training will be set up as an open log so you can hang about with anyone else getting taught by a friend who volunteers or by Lancelot or whoever! I want this to be a good opportunity for everyone to mingle, as well as get involved in other things!

If your character cannot attend the training but you would like them taught at another time, they can contact Lancelot to ask. Equally, if they would not ICly turn up but you want them trained or volunteered let me know and we can fashion a way to drag them sideways into it.

However, I'd like to get an idea of how many people are coming and if you'd be interested in putting them forward for any stage of the plan so we can gauge how things might go trying to gamble on getting Raonil off the Unseelie.

Character: Elincia Ridell Crimea
Skills: She's a pretty great fighter, on the ground and as a mounted unit (your local cleg knight at your services!!) She's also a great negotiator, being well, a queen and all. She's also a healer.
Volunteering for: Training. However, anything else depends on whether or not it overlaps with certain plans already prepared this month. That being said, if anyone on the ambush team would like to be taught how to heal, Elincia can help them there and give them one of her own staffs. (also if anyone wants her to try and contact Sose the Sylph to give the sylphs a heads up, Elincia can try her hand at that)
NOTES: Elincia is pretty against the war and has been pretty honest about it so she'll definitely do her best to avoid harming other shard holders. That being said though, she really can't look the other way when people start torturing others etc and will step in.

I think it was either the 16th or 20th, Elincia and part of the demigod squad are heading out to seek the Drabkeeper's Castle. They'll be heading to the station ring to make a jump to the closest fairy ring and they'll probably be occupied for the most of September from there.

So yeah, not sure how much this clashes with Lancelot's plans 8|a
devotedqueen: (smile; oh happy days)
