    Each cabin has rooms A-D. The main lodge has plenty of bunk space, but there are no separate rooms.

    Cabin 5 - Maple is reserved for visitors who do not want to stay at the lodge. They are requested to check in at the main lodge, where any member can give them permission to stay for a few days. Longer than that, and unless they are in need, they would be requested to either join or move to their own place or one of the local inns.

    New cabins can be added as the plot demands it. Here is a list of unused tree names:

    Linden, Larch, Ash, Pine, Hickory, Poplar, Magnolia, Olive, Fir, Spruce, Holly, Cottonwood, Cypress, Hemlock, Teak, Ebony, Pear, Fig, Date, Mahogany, Palm, Lime, Acadia, Gumbo Limbo…

    Description of the new GLoG setting:
    Spoiler
    Show
    After the original GLoG building was destroyed by an army of catpeople, the survivors took out a mortgage and purchased Phoenix Lake Campground. Facilities include the main lodge house, a bathhouse with separate male and female sections, a stable (no horses present), various picnic shelters, and a few scattered cabins. It's set in the foothills of the Acro mountains, and mainly surrounded by woods. There are many hiking trails nearby leading to mountaintop vistas, waterfalls, seacoves, and various other locations, both within this thread, and in the Outside thread. The campground is also within easy walking distance of the Taverna Generica and the city of Inside.

    At the lake, there is a small dock with a little shed nearby where a few canoes and paddleboats are stored. (They probably should be inspected first before trying to put them in the water.) The swimming area has a GIANT slide and a rope swing. Because GIANT slides and rope swings are awesome. There is also a playground under the trees, set back from the lake somewhat, and a set of horseshoe pits.

    Having been built on a Generic Ancient Burial Ground, Phoenix Lake Campground is haunted by various ghosts. They are generally harmless, and for the most part glad to have some company, though pranks and hijinks may occur. Ghosts, like the drones of old, can be NPC'd by anyone. They tend to speak in Gray.

    South, by Neon Knight:
    Spoiler
    Show
    [Lake, Southern Shores]

    Our descriptive tour starts here, because NK has jurisdiction here.

    The southern shore is a gentle slope descending into the waters of the lake, sandy here and there, and perfect for waders and swimmers. There are no high banks along the water, which is normally quite pleasant. Being winter, of course, it is rather chilly. The foliage around the lake isn't prickly or harsh at all, and a free trees provide shade for those inclined to lounge nearby.

    [South Meadow]

    Immediately south of the central shoreline is a rather nice meadow. Although winter has robbed it of some joy and vitality, [South Meadow] will be a lovely spot for picnics when warmth returns, with soft grass, pretty blooms, and an arrangement of surrounding trees that lets in just enough wind to cool you off in the summer but blocks enough so that the windchill doesn't freeze you.

    [South Forest]

    As the tree line thickens, conifers and deciduous trees grow in thick clumps, making a patchy canopy overhead. Hiking trails wind through it here and there, but it is mostly overgrown; the southern woods are a more remote and neglected part of the campground.

    The bare wooden limbs of the deciduous trees contrast sharply with the continued vitality and life of the firs and other conifers. The elevation gently slopes up the deeper south you go, wit forested hills rising and eventually the great peaks of the mountains forming the southern part of the valley.


    North, by EleventhHour:

    [Once in a lifetime, you get a new beginning]

    GLoG, was blown apart and torn down, those who visited it mourned the loss of such an extravagant building, and for the loss of a landmark they grew up with. When they heard word of it being rebuilt, from almost the ground, people came to see, and to work. The following is an excerpt from a journal of a woman who came to see the new place...

    On the northern shores of the lake, 'tis easy to see why they pick such a place. To the south it one range of mountains, sandy beaches and old forgotten trails, on the north side, things are rockier. For example, even as I write this, I stand on the head of a short cliffside some six feet above the glistening blue waters, well they are frozen over with ice at the moment, glittering in the sun, but I can imagine the summer view...

    To look around, turning in an eastward fasion, it's easiest to notice the grey mountain peak of the beginning of the northern range, the massive waterfall feeding the lake shining white even from here, there are the forested groves and the low growing holly bushes, some dead for the winter, others still a vibrant green as thier sort dictates. To the north, I will have to travel through the woods, to be looking upon the sights. Coming back 'round to the west, you can see the battered place of old, where a graveyard must have stood, some pitted old pillars and laystones of granite grown over with moss, and pushed aside by saplings.

    Upon starting the climb up the hillsides about the mountainous locale, I noticed that where some rockslides had taken the face away from the lower mountain revealing black, midnight cracks into the roots of the world, leading who knows where, and sealed for who knows how long. Ah! I have reached a merry pinnacle, about halfway up those imposing peaks. Oh, 'tis cold, certainly, but any who dare venture up this far are surely in for a treat of wonder. Looking down across the forest, you can see the blackened trees to the west, and the breaks in the treeline where the cabins and lodges stand empty, with the little cleared roads drawing snaked pathes between them.

    Up here, you can taste the frigid air, and only the lowest growing bushes are able to grow at all. Miraculously, when I stopped in a little enclave on the side of the hill, heading back down now, there were blueberries growing! In the middle of winter, no less! Unfortunately, there was a storm brewing, and I had no time to stop and wait. One thing did catch my eye though, on the way down, that somehow I couldn't see from the peak, and I have yet to drop by the main lodge itself to see, but from here I could see a tree, massive beyond reason of twisted branches and a trunk easily as large as a house, I would say it was a blue ash, but they couldn't possibly grow so tall...


    Island: (by Rebonack)
    Spoiler
    Show
    In the midst of the lake there is a small island. Getting here is a bit of a swim unless other means of transportation are available.

    It's generally sandy with more than a few alder trees quite happy to take advantage of the water. Everything is powdered with a light application of snow, disturbed by only the occasional bird footprints. Isn't exactly the sort of location large animals come to.

    The place is largely wooded with the occasional granite boulder sticking out of the snow, strange swirling petroglyphs etched into them. And in the middle of the island is a structure of decent size. A low, squat building of stacked stones. Looks to be a crypt of some kind.

    Should one step into the barrow...

    It's dark inside. And kinda wet. The walls are carved with the same odd swirling sigils that were found on several of the stones outside. In the middle of the ruin lies a huge stone table, ancient glyphs ringing the edge. The slab appears to have broken ages ago, split right down the middle. Several windows allow sunlight to filter in, causing the various stone to cast long shadows.

    Or at least they do when the skylights aren't covered in snow.



    Buildings:
    Spoiler
    Show
    Main Lodge: This large building contains an industrial kitchen with a cafeteria style serving area, and an open space that was once used as the dining hall. The space is warmed by a massive fireplace. Bunk beds are lined up on one end of the hall, opposite the kitchen, and a few comfy chairs and sofas are beginning to appear around the fireplace as they are procured. The building itself is made of stone.

    Bathhouse: This building is divided into the men's and women's bathhouses, with entrances at either end. It has shower stalls, a line of sinks, and toilet stalls in each. By now, the shower curtains have been replaced and the whole area has been scrubbed to cleanliness and usability.

    Cabins: Each cabin has 4 rooms, each with shelves and space for three bunk beds. The ones nearest to the lodge have been cleaned out and are habitable, though they lack furniture and any source of heat.

    Workshop: A well built cabin designed by Reelshka, containing nothing at present but the Mainframe installation. It is locked.

    Infirmary:
    Spoiler
    Show
    The outside of the infirmary looks just like all the rest of the buildings. Nothing distinguishes it at all.

    But inside, everything is white, with silver highlighting. Even though it doesn't seem possible, when looking from outside, sunlight filters inside. Giving the place a warm feeling with natural light.

    A soft, soothing music filters through the whole building and words can barely be heard saying words of healing and comfort, like: "You are going to be okay." "We'll take care of you." "You are dear to us." and so on.

    Each room is walled off for a limited amount of privacy, because the pixies know that humans seem to need this. Strange. But it is limited. There are no doors.

    Kinda looks like this:
    ______________________________________
    |___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___|
    |__/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/|
    |__________________________________---|
    |_\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\_|
    |__\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\|


    Except the angles are more severe, so that people on the other side of the hall can't see into anyone's room. Only someone intentionally looking in, can see you.

    There is also a small living area in the back which includes a small kitchen and bedroom among a few other things.




    About the Drones Mk 2:
    Spoiler
    Show
    In other news, the drones are back at GLoG.
    • Drones are NPCs who can be played by anyone, within the guidelines below
    • Their Primary Function is member safety
    • They no longer have teleport beams or alignment scanners
    • They do have stun beams and the ability to record what's going on around them
    • They follow orders, unless those orders conflict with their Primary Function
    • There are only 10-12 in operation at any one time
    • They can be destroyed, but if so, they'll be restored from backup
    • A few have been supplied with medical programming, and thus can be godmodded for infirmary duties.
    • Sadly, they have no cake fixation. Sunny arrived after the Top Secret Cake Baking Kitchen had been abandoned.
    • Statement: They speak in DarkOrange FixedSys

    Attention villains:
    Spoiler
    Show
    Conflict is great! It's the heart of any story, and there isn't much to roleplay without it. However, as a player to player courtesy, please check in with the players who are active at any given time before launching an attack. Not everyone wants to roleplay combat scenes, and sometimes there are other things going on that players don't want to interrupt for a random fight. Either a PM/IM to players, a short post in thread to say ((Mind if I introduce a villain here?)) or a longer post in the OOC thread if it's a larger plot is appreciated.

    Also, please don't plan any villainy that will result in destroying the base or having the same effect (poisoning the lake, burning down the forest, etc.)

    Base Defences:
    Spoiler
    Show
    So Khiansa goes around the grounds, casting alarm spells around the surrounding woods, and wards against the weaker classes of undead, devil or demon (eg. Those least likely to be PCs ), weak wards to limit the strength of destructive magic, and other such weak fields of protection, in order to make things a bit safer in general, before he can eventually go back over and make stronger, more selective wards.
    After setting up the wards, he'll start the considerably harder work of magically fortifying the buildings themselves, especially the lodge, weaving spells of protection and strength in between and through the building materials, so that they may better withstand attack.


    NB: As part of a continuing effort to move away from DnD and become more freeform, there is no longer any inbuilt organizational capability of 'alignment detection'. Individual PCs may or may not have this ability.

    Infirmary

    Nurse Piper could have set it if it's a simple fracture. If it's a compound fracture, or the sort of thing that would require surgery to install pins or the like in RL, then she'd need a PC doctor to step in.

    Eh, we'll say it was a simple transverse fracture, so the Nurse could have set it. And if Nurse Piper can and did insert a morphine drip, then Ally will be more lucid now. What? That totally makes sense!

    This is my friend Natalie, she can turn into a monkey! Brinika informs Salix, waving her feet in the air.

    Things? What things? Sophie asks. She didn't use her healing power because a) It's draining and b) It requires mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, making it awkward to implement.

    Horrible monsters... They didn't make sense. Nothing about them made sense... Ally tells Sophie in a calm, toneless voice.

    It's alright. You're safe now. Sophie will try to give Ally a reassuring hug.

    Ally stiffens up when she's hugged, but doesn't push Sophie away.

    I think you need rest now. Sophie will try to gently lead Ally to one of the infirmary beds. It's likely that medicine will be needed to get her to sleep...

    The young redhead doesn't resist, allowing herself to be drugged into slumber. Her player has to leave anyways.

    Natalie nods and begins to shift back to human form, her fur appearing to grow backwards apart from that on her head which lengthens until it is cascading down her back. Her face changes and her skin pales until it is her normal, caucasian shade rather than the black skin of a monkey. She also loses her tail, but grows thumbs. "Hello, I'm Natalie, pleased to meet you." She seems very calm and confident in the tree, even as a human. Especially for somebody who, just six months or so ago, was terrified of heights.

    "Hi Natalie. I'm Salix." The young dryad grins at the no longer a monkey girl. "I never saw anyone that can change like that. It's so cool." She says enthusiastically.

    Ally wakes up in the infirmary and checks the contents of the pouches on her belt, making sure everything is where it should be, while she figures out what on earth she's going to do now.

    "Wait what?" Jixnib tries to evade her...but obviously he can. Loud cursing follows. Sarah is bound to learn a few new words. >.>

    "Stop that!" He demands. Thankfully the cabins are raised off the ground, so his feet are just dangling under the floor.

    Sarah looks perplexed and slightly awkward again. The little girl pauses. "Um, should I erase the wards?" She reaches out a hand to do just that.

    After taking a short nap, Ally gets out of bed and prepares to leave the infirmary.

    Ashley arrives here. It's clear that she's been traveling long and quickly, and is rather tired. She looks for someone that can help her.

    Ally steps out of the infirmary, gingerly limping on bandaged legs and holding her arm cast close to her body. She keeps her eyes on the ground so she doesn't get tripped up by a root or a stone or anything, and so doesn't notice Ashley.

    Ashley, on the other hand, does notice Ally, and feels a twang of guilt. "Ally? What happened to you?"

    The redhead looks up in surprise. Ashley? A plethora of emotions flickers across her face before settling on relief. Thank the Gods you're okay.

    "I'm okay, yes, but what about you? Did th... did the Starspawn find you?" Ashley's face is pretty much entirely made up of worry.

    I tried to make it to HALO, but the streets leading to the docks... They were filled with those things... Then I remembered GLoG deals with refugees from, uh, these apocalypses, so I started walking here. But there were just so many... Ally shivers as she remembers that horrible night.

    Ashley tears up a little, and goes over to try and pull Ally into a very soft hug. She's sure not to cause any pain. "I'm so sorry, this is all my fault. I should've gone with you, made sure you were safe..."

    Ally hugs the illusionist back. Hey hey hey... Don't worry, I wasn't hurt that badly. You had something more important to do anyways. I'm just glad your damn fool heroics didn't get you killed.

    Ashley sobs a little, and burys her face in Ally's shoulder. "Serves me right for going off to do my foolish heroics, really."
