HI GUYS. I've got something of a heads up/plotting post for you today! You see, Hans here got assigned by Morla to infiltrate the Seelie court in disguise, attempt to wheedle information out of various Seelie subjects, and pass said information on to Ganondorf. Morla granted Hans a magical ring that disguises not only his appearance (so those he has met will not recognize him) but also his true court allegiance. Basically, Hans will appear as a humble knight native to the Drabwurld, come to Caer Glaem to pledge his service to the Seelie. Great news, right?

Morla assigned Hans to stay at Caer Glaem for a season, so this will be a slow-burning plot with Hans focusing on building a rapport first with various Seelie, especially those with bounties, before stealing any information. So! A couple of things:

Though I won't be using an alt account or alt icons, Hanseelie will not be recognizable as himself. He'll look more like your run-of-the-mill stock knight character (but still a ginger, because gingers represent). Also, he will be going under a pseudonym, obviously, one he picked up while traveling to Caer Glaem, and you can bet he'll have invented some tragically heroic backstory for his alter-ego.

If your character gets CR with Hanseelie, that certainly doesn't mean later they'll have to forfeit information! I'm all for building the CR up and Hans not getting anything out it.

If you do want to use this plot as an opportunity to get your character or the Seelie in hot water, I'm happy to work with that, too! And at any time, as well. My goal is to make this plot as fun and smooth for everyone as possible, so Hans can either end up cutting a serious blow to the Seelie court, or learning nothing at all! It all depends on how ye Seelie players want it to go.

Down the line this plot will expand and there also will likely be opportunities for Hans to be found out. Because really, what's the fun in just letting him get away with it?

Hans will be keeping up appearances as himself on the lockets so those aware of his true character won't get suspicious about where he's gone. If anyone asks him, he'll say he's at Mair.

UM YES I think that's all I have for now! Hanseelie will be arriving at Caer Glaem on the 10th or 11th and I'm planning to put up a log for that. Shoot any questions, comments, ideas, etc. to me here or on Plurk (cinematic). Thanks!!

OH ALSO mako's dragon is going to be hatching by the end of the month, and she is a

*magical dragon*!!!! but also a baby who has to live in mako's shirt most of the time. maybe she could Not Like Mr Ginger Man

it might just be latent dislike for gingers he had while he was taking care of her egg, she might just smell magic on him, who knows??? IDK it's an idea to put out there, but probably not act on just yet.
