ten_fwd_modsETA: SIGN-UPS ARE NOW CLOSED! Thank you, everyone!
Hi Ten Forwardians!
Some of you may be wondering 'hey, what ever happened to the rescue plot for Risa?' Well, as some of you may know, the player planning the event had an unexpected surgery about two weeks ago that she's been recuperating from, and that combined with Real Life events over the end of the year pushed the plot from December to January. But the waiting is officially over! The player of our family in need of rescuing, Chicklet, has asked us to update you on the events of the plot and reopen sign-ups for those whose availability may have changed.
All who sign-up will need to work together cooperatively as a team. There is a tagging order, which is why volunteers are capped at 6 people, to keep things from getting too unwieldy and moving along smoothly. Those who showed interest in our first plotting post will get first dibs, with first-come-first-served for all who sign up after that until we have our full team of 6. A more detailed plot write-up with background and setting will also be available for all who sign up.
The IC set-up for the plot will include scenes both on the Enterprise and on Risa, so all characters are eligible to sign up to help regardless of whether they're on the ship or on the planet. IC they simply have to approach the officers leading the mission to volunteer, which will probably be handwaved so we can get straight into the fun of the mission.
After Ayesh is rescued, she will remain on the Enterprise as one of our fellow passengers, so come help a shipmate out and have some fun along the way!
Hi Ten Forwardians!

† The Deets: Around 6 characters, including 1 Starfleet officer (if one doesn't sign up, an NPC will be provided), are needed to rescue a family of 4 from the caves in Risa.
† The Dates: The mun would like to start an IC post on Thursday, Jan 8th, for the setup if everyone's schedules allow, with tagging to continue on Saturday, Jan 10th.
† The Plot: While the Enterprise is orbiting Risa, the crew picks up some strange readings on their sensors. It seems somewhere in the wilder regions of Risa there are naturally occurring dilithium crystals, a very rare element that cannot be replicated and which fuel the Enterprise. This is exceedingly unusual, so Captain Picard makes arrangements with the Risa Hedony to send a team to investigate and mine some of these crystals. As the team is dispatched, they will have to walk some distance away from the pleasant beaches toward the wilds, where many cave systems litter the planet. Led by the Starfleet officer, they will locate the cave where they believe the readings are coming from, and while investigating — which will include digging and clearing away rocks — they will uncover a large cocoon instead. Inside that cocoon is what appears to be a coffin, which once opened reveals three more human-sized cocoons. Inside the first cocoon is Ayesh. She and her family have been buried here for untold years, under a spell that keeps them in a dreamless sleep, until it is deemed safe to awaken them back into the world. Only Ayesh's cocoon must be opened, for once it is she will regain consciousness and her first thought will be protecting the other two. Strong fighters or gifted negotiators are preferred to calm Ayesh down enough to explain her situation. Once that has been accomplished, the team's main objective will be getting Ayesh, along with the two unopened cocoons, back to the Enterprise for medical attention.
