BOUNTY BOARD.
| BOUNTIES. Welcome to the Bounty Board! This is where you can find tasks or sidequests that your character can take on. These can range from simple fetch quests to complex puzzles that require inter-player coordination. And there will definitely be rewards. To accept a bounty, simply comment to it and state the characters who will be undertaking it. Then, submit a thread of your characters completing the mission before the deadline, and the mods will reply with your reward. Bounties that have closed will have their comments frozen. Players can also post their own bounties, under the comment header of the month they are submitted in. The form to use is below!

One of the chicken farms in the Blood faction is experiencing a rather peculiar issue. Chicks are hatching with significant deformities, and it will affect their business in the future. Unable to solve the conundrum themselves, they've started asking for help. If you can help them restore their hens to their former glory, they will reward you with money and a decent bit of reputation.
PRE-REQUISITES.
None!
REWARDS.
A chick of your choice, as well as about $500 in money.
DEADLINE.
July 31st.
ETC.
You can ask them to dye your chick if you wish.

A thorough inspection of the coop will indeed reveal absolutely no curses or environmental contagions... unless Sion checks out his scanner, that is. There is a small but significant X-ray beam pointed downwards at where the hens are nesting. Climbing up on the roof will reveal that a small shard of crystal has embedded itself into the roof. The crystal is transparent and fits snugly in the palm of one hand. It seems like the pointy end of the crystal emits radiation in a small cone before it, presumably the culprit. This only happens when it's exposed to light, which means the two of them can safely transport it in an opaque container.
When this is explained to the hen keeper, she would be very thankful to them for their help, but also asks them to take the 'cursed stone' as far away as possible. It seems like the knowledge of the electromagnetic spectrum is not something common to Blood faction members. The shard is theirs to do as they wish... though they may wish to keep it secret, lest others set their sights on wresting it from their grasp.

The Midsummer's Feast is considered the most important celebration on the Moon. In order to bring in the summer harvest before festival time, every man's effort counts. Helping out at one of the Spring villages to turn in the wheat and corn will surely help with their endeavours.
PRE-REQUISITES.
This involves a considerable bit of either physical labour or handiwork skill.
REWARDS.
Invitation to the party that you helped to put together. Though the more important reward would be reputation with both the spirits and the people. To show your respect for their culture means a lot to them, so bring your friends and work those muscles!
DEADLINE.
ICly July 15th. You can submit backdated threads until July 31st.
ETC.
You can also pick up some cooking skills for your character this way.

The Wintersmith has a personal interest in those who come to the Moon, so he's set a task for all of you. Venture out into the Badlands and scout out nearby terrain, in preparation for expansion of the city. The Badlands is filled with invisible miasma that saps characters' strength the further they move from the city walls, so they are highly encouraged to travel in groups. Dragons are highly resistant to the miasma, so they will carry your folks back in case everyone faints. You will be given basic film cameras to document your findings.
PRE-REQUISITES.
Your party must at least have one Ice faction member. Also, it is advised to not take any complex technology, as dragon screams can short out electronics. Not that dragons will scream easily, but...
REWARDS.
Reputation with the Wintersmith, which is... hard to earn compared to the rest. You will also be paid money in accordance with the distance you've managed to cover. Ice faction characters will receive something special for their dragons.
DEADLINE.
July 31st.
ETC.
Comment here and mods will arrange an exploration thread for you!

Androids don't count as complex tech do they...no subject
Luckily, they don't! Not to.. that degree, at least...Would you prefer a writeup of the outcome provided here (like what I've done with the Chicken bounty) and then you're free to thread it out, or would you prefer a full 3 person thread (where mods will tag in at important points)? Let me know what works best. o/

Upon setting out from the city gates, 9S and Nisaka will find themselves greeted by a desolate, rocky landscape. As the rumours go, there's absolutely no sign of life around whatsoever. No animals, no grass, just miles and miles of hills and valleys. There are some mineral deposits a few miles out, if 9S fancies a bit of ore. Otherwise it's terribly bland, though the duo might want to take pictures of important landmark formations for finding their way back.
As they progress further from the city, our two explorers will start feeling the miasma's drain on their strength. It's mitigated by being in proximity of the dragon, though. Pushing a bit further will reveal a stretch of land where the wind intensifies, so it might be safer to fly lower. A faint sort of electromagnetic signal is perceivable at this area. Although the signal presents itself as complete garble, it can be traced, and it leads deeper into the Badlands. However, there will come a point where Nisaka's dragon refuses to go any further. If they linger around that area, they may see moving shadows in the distance. It's hard to discern right now but they seem to take the shape of large beasts with metallic or crystalline body parts. it's not possible to attract their attention unless 9S fires something... If they're hit, they'll definitely come running to attack.
The two of them should not stray out too long, four hours is the hard limit before one of them will pass out.
