DE: The importance of work

[yakalskovich]

 People need to procure resources to live, and in most cases, they will do some kind of work to get them. Even organizing oppression so one can get resources off other people who do the actual work (AKA slavery, feudal systems, raiding, rampant capitalism etc.) takes some measure of work. Please elaborate a little about the subject of work in the worlds of your canons, and as it applies to your characters in particular, taking into account aspects such as:

• How much mention is made of work and the economy in your canon?
• What do your characters do for a living?
• Are your characters among the haves or the have-nots?
• Is there any systematic economic exploitation?
• What resources are important to the economy in your canon so work will centre around them?
• How much does your characters' story focus on their work (e.g. police procedurals are all about the job)?

Again, please disregard the numbers on those examples -- the templates for the bar and the backroom can only do ordered lists, not simple bullet points.

Yo!

Milliscouts

We've not had any new activities the last couple weeks because of Halloween and bodyswap. Bonnie has now put up a poster to ask the kids what they prefer to do in the next couple of weeks - IC or OOC please let me know what you fancy of the following options:

A: Party of some sort.
B: Some sort of holiday show or pantomime
C: Sledge race rematch!
D: Build snow battle machines
E: Winter crafts/present making e.g. candle making, jam making
F: I hate winter, let's go to the warm beach and pretend it's summer.
G: Other, please suggest

Option E is likely to go ahead in any case as it will fit in with a barwide Christmas plot Maru and I are running which will be announced shortly (open to all, easy to work round if you aren't interested).


Life Support

Loads of people pitched up last month to welcome the new Life Support volunteers, and I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who made it a great post! We will be aiming to next have Life Support on Tuesday 1st December.
