OOC Info [OOC Thread] Moving with the Herd

[Khida]

I've started up a thread for one of the 'qualifying rounds' of the archery contest on Spring 4. This thread is semi-open; I'd like to limit the number of additional contestants to 3, so it doesn't get too busy. Spectators/cheerleaders are also welcome. If you're interested in joining, please PM me with whether you want to be a contestant or not.

Another random reference I'd like to share: yogurt and pastoral nomad cuisine

[Tevinte]

Hello.
I'm a little very new to Endrykas so I suppose this is an introduction. But I'm terrible at introductions so: hi. Please let me know if you're interested in threading with me coss I'm stupidly shy.

[Colt]

Welcome, Tevinte!

[Khida]

Hello, Tevinte, and welcome! I see you're setting Tevinte up as a hunter. If you like, we can collaborate on a job thread -- Khida will need a second one for this season. It'll be a couple weeks before I can get to that, though... so you'd have to not mind waiting. I do believe we have another new hunter in Dravite, too; he might have a thread you could get in on.

[Colt]

So many new hunters. Once I tend to my current threads, I might try and organize a group hunt.

[Mayra]

Hey everyone!

I'm another new character that is coming to town. I'm looking to establish relationships, good or bad, within the city. If anyone else is interested in threading, drop in my PM box.

As far as plots go, anything is open for me. Mayra has very little boundaries so everything from helping someone with their animal (as her profession) or a drunken fight, a one night stand, a stranger as a stargazing partner. Just about anything is fine with me.

[Dravite]

Hi. Happy to RP with anyone. Will write just about anything.

[Gossamer]

I'm going to put this message here so that everyone clearly understands it.

Even though I'm basically RS of Cyphrus, Endrykas is still an unsupported city because it has no full time moderator. That means you need to go through me to get things done. I don't ask for much. I really need DETAILS on what you want to do. And if you don't know what you are trying to do, please ask for some specifics from me in order to facilitate that.

Want a job? If you have played here before and understand how the system works, come to me with a scenario. Here's an example...

"Hello. My name is Jen. I'd like to be employed as a HEALER for The River Flower. Here's my skills: Medicine 30, Herbalism 20, Philtering 10. Would that be possible?"

I will get back to you immediately with a 'sure, great... no worries... you make X a day, and here's your SS thread link'..... all done no worries...

Now....

If you want a profession that's generic in Endrykas... like say... animal breeder, herder, groom, hunter, etc... then you need to think about what your doing and probably change your ideas about how you are going to earn a living. Meaning, the market is saturated. You can't generically harvest herbs for Endrykas. And some of you have tried to pull off the old.. "I get paid by my pavilion to weave!" trick. No no no. You are living in a big extended family... they don't pay you for shit. You do everything for free to survive. They do everything they do for free to survive. It's survival. That's why most of Endrykas is on the barter system. If you want real coin, you have to have a real job somewhere doing something... even if its in the watch.

Okay?

Thanks... help me help you. Again, this city isn't supported and as soon as I get more free time from life's drama, I'm going to start gutting it and rebuilding it from the ground up so no one has any bitches about it anymore.

Thanks folks.

Jen

Would it be possible to work as a hunter or crafter for your pavilion, and not get paid? The pavilion feeds you, clothes you, gives you somewhere to sleep, covers your expenses, etc... and in return they keep all the profits from whatever you kill or craft? Borderline slavery I suppose, and you'd have to do side jobs / bartering / etc if you wanted to get anything beyond the absolute basics.
