Discord Assignment the 3rd - Week 4
Added 2020-11-23 22:44:46 +0000 UTCPerhaps due to the work of some depraved agent of chaos, who revels in nothing but confusion and missrule, last week ended in a draw.
Would have been nice to just merge the two options into one assignment. They're just too different though. Saying that, whatever wins I'll try to work in a cameo of the other option in the final assignment.
So after discussing it on the discord this week we're going to do a vote off.
If it's still a draw next week I'll just pick one so we can move forward.
Option 4.
They say it's not easy being green, and this is especially true when some ancestor or another decided that raiding is too dangerous and the solution to all that ails you is a good hoe. A metal one, specifically. The wooden ones are no good for farming. The problem for this village of farmers (who just so happen to be orcs) is that noone will sell them any hoes. They keep shouting at them and misunderstanding their requests. So they decided to put out the word amongst the camps that times are dire, and they are in need of some top quality hoes for the next season, and they'll pay top price for them. Nothing can go wrong with this request. Nothing.
Option 6.
An orc chieftain has a younger son who has disclaimed his right to succession in order to make his own career doing most untraditional orc things in human lands. The chieftain is accepting of his son's chosen path in life. He has hired you because he wants a bit of protection for his son. See, the orc princeling has a dream of starting his own bakery. Despite the typical jokes about "special icing," the confections he produces are actually quite tasty and not even a little bit lewd. However, the young orc is inexperienced in the ways of the wider world and has run afoul of some mid-level bureaucrat who is demanding all sorts of (likely spurious) fees in order for the paperwork to go through properly. Your new orc friend really really wants his bakery, and his father is willing to pay well for your services. It's your job to bribe, bully, or brainwash the municipal functionary into leaving the bakery alone.
