Filtered to Outpost Haven. ATTN: construction crew
OOC: All outpost personnel can see this, with pings to those who've helped with construction, regardless of whether/where characters are listed in the reference post

Building the Outpost is more than a job; it's community. A refuge for Sleepers during crises. Trench has had a hard couple months—floods, fires, monsters, beasts. We have a skilled crew. D and I would like the Outpost to help get people back in their homes and businesses. It's voluntary. If you're interested, let me know. If you're also interested to represent the Outpost, you can demonstrate that by wearing the Outpost's sigil, and there is food and shelter available same as for other Outpost work. Work with courtesy and professionalism. You can opt out of working with anyone or on any project. Thank you.

Public (later)

Trench has had a hard time. It only takes a moment for a place to be damaged or destroyed. It takes longer to rebuild. Outpost Haven would like to help. I invited the community to come together—to ask for assistance you need and to offer it in return. Lets see everyone safe and sound.

Yes. Humanity is never a monolith. Interesting, that's different.

Delaying the passage of time, even on the dead, would be impressive and useful. A Beguiling Soul perhaps.

I won't say it's a smooth construct, but then I never really tried. Usually I end up using it in the heat of a battle.

Again, I've never tried since I don't keep the dead hanging around, since it freaks people out. Not sure if I have that much power over a soul, or that I'd want it.

[martyrofduty]

It's best to determine what you're capable of before you need it. Whether you want the power, if you will call on it, I'd recommend knowing.

Do you trust yourself with it?

[umbraportation]

Before this place, it never crossed my mind. There aren't any other demigods with my powers around.

Honestly, it'd depend on who the soul belonged to. If they were a friend, I may have a hard time letting go eventually. And if I really hated them, I'd probably just send them back where they came from.

[martyrofduty]

That makes it harder.

How much control do you have on which soul(s) you summon, if there's options?

[umbraportation]

Yeah, so I'm only just learning there could be a huge pool of abilities to dip my feet into here.

Most of them pretty much have to obey me if I order them, even summoning them. I only had one person refuse, she also would have had the same or similar abilities as me. So if there's someone with similar abilities fighting against me, it'd probably be a struggle.

[martyrofduty]

The beginning is an exciting time.

That may happen. However, there's such diversity of abilities here, there's more than enough to stay busy with that doesn't.

[umbraportation]

Never hurts to have more tricks up my sleeve.

Yeah, but October's around the corner, so we might see some crossover happening.

[martyrofduty]

Yes, all types.

What do you associate October with?
