Moon Base Missions are over this way! Until we come back to Exsilium, please consider using the short form first. Click on this link for more information!

Small Group Missions
Mission Request form last updated 08/19/13.
These are missions for groups of two to eight characters (though there may be some flexibility on that character limit).
Do you want some unexpected forced bonding time? A group training exercise? Here's the place to get that! By requesting a Small Group Mission, you will be given an opportunity for your group of characters to be sent on a mission by the Initiative. These missions will be small in scale compared to the game-wide missions -- a game-wide mission could change the tide of an entire war; these missions will often be seemingly inconsequential, but could potentially have long-reaching effects.

Perhaps your characters will be sent to the French countryside in 1723 with the instructions to raid a carriage and steal a small wooden box inside of it, or to the Reconstruction-Era United States with the instructions to find a certain man and invite him to a bar with the purpose of getting him so drunk that he passes out, or to simply walk into a library in Egypt and collect several scrolls. But perhaps that small wooden box contains an important treaty that is being transported to be signed. Perhaps that man is, in fact, a US senator who will now be late and miss out on voting on a new law. Perhaps those scrolls were housed in the Library of Alexandria and only days away from being destroyed in the fire.

When assigning missions, we will be taking factors such as the size of the group and the particulars of the kind of mission you, as players, want to see your characters on. The more specific you are, the better we can meet your needs!

Solo Missions
Solo Missions are much the same as Small Group Missions, but are undertaken by a single character. You have the option of writing out a solo log about the mission, or simply handwaving it. These missions can be used for character development purposes and/or as a way to explain your character's absence when you go on a hiatus. Please state exactly what you want your character doing for this mission.

MISSION REQUEST FORM
<b>Character(s) involved:</b> <b>Preferred Location:</b> This field is optional. Do you have a country, biome, or otherwise specific setting in mind for this mission? <b>Preferred Time Period:</b> Again, this field is optional, but if you have one, please state it here! Double check that your time period is not in conflict with your preferred objective. <b>Preferred Mission Objective:</b> Specific detail is highly suggested. What do you want your characters doing, and why? What objective would they have? What can you see the Initiative wanting? (You don't need to know this so much!) Having a clear idea of the sort of mission you want and what you hope to achieve from it helps us get back to you sooner! General statements like "I'd love murder, please" are not so much helpful; "I'd love to go on a murderous rampage during the Civil War in the United States, on the side of the Rebels" is better, and we can help find the importance of it to the Initiative. <b>Expected Mission Duration:</b> If you have an idea, or would like the mission tailored for something that takes a longer or shorter period of time. Played out mission times don't need to match the actual duration of the mission. That is to say, you may have your characters go on a mission for three months in the past, while only one week to a month passes in the present game time. <b>Additional Notes:</b> Anything else you'd like to add.

THE MISSION:

Italy, 2006. February, during the hosting of the Winter Olympics. Later historical record has indicated that a certain painting gone missing for forty years (by 2006) was in the posession of one particularly rich individual, and later locked away and lost to private ultra-rich galleries for more decades following. Caravaggio’s “Nativity with San Lorenzo and San Francesco” was stolen in October of 1969 from the Oratory of San Lorenzo in Palermo, Italy. Its value is estimated at $20 million and it is on the list of the FBI's list of Top Ten Art Crimes. You, my friends, will be stealing into this ultra-rich man's home, liberating the painting, and then leaving it in the basement archives of the University of Bologna's Special Collections.

THE FALLOUT:

The discovery of the lost painting caused a breif spurt of increased funding into the University proper, especially in the Faculty of Preservation of Cultural Heritage. In the next two decades, this ties in with main political movements, and Italy keeps a closer hold to preservation on a country level, and the influence spreads into other sectors of the European Union. It is the beginning of a positive movement toward historical appreciation of arts. In present day Exsilium, the museum will now be one of the most carefully taken care of complexes, with countless treasures past and present to be found inside.

THE NOTES:

Also save the poor lap dog this man owns and find it an owner who doesn't use it as arm uggage please the poor guy is miserable and forced to drink beer! He is so fat! aka if you have questions please do ask.
