Thank you for stopping by to check out this month's job postings for Highwind Hires — a freelance mercenary group!


Aranea Highwind will ICly be contacting characters and offering them jobs based off the assumption she will receive 30% of the cut. Due to the change in settings, Aranea has waved her fee and is allowing people to keep the full cut of the payment to help them get on their feet.



JOB #1 — DRAGON RESCUE

With the infection in Wyver, a local dragon-nursery is in need of workers to help tend for sick dragons. They will need baths, feedings, and even surgery in some cases. Will you answer the call and provide the support Wyver needs in this trying time?

OUTCOMES:
- The nursery will pay you 100 silver for a day's work.



JOB #2 — REDEMPTION FOR FAMILY

An elderly woman named Vetmir has somehow got in contact with Highwind Hire, hoping to find her son's killer. Her son was murdered weeks ago by a former lover. The woman is hiding in The Old City, Alora, is often seen among the trading market near the evening making a living a drug trader.

OUTCOMES:
- Vetmir promises 140 silver with delivery of a locket her son gave Alora.
- Sparing Alora's life will earn you her side of the story, where she had to defend herself after a drunken encounter with Vetmir's son. This earns you 40 silver in appreciation and the locket, which nets you Vetmir's 140 silver if delivered back for a total of 180 silver.



JOB #3 — BONES FOR A CURE

Criny, a medicine woman is looking for a large supply of Puox bones from their camouflaged exterior. This crucial parts are needed to craft some potions to help relieve aches for the sick.

JOB #4 — SEARCH & RESCUE

Jillam, a street vendor, has not seen their fruit supplier in a few days. Worried they were lost in The Undergrowth, they are enlisting a search and rescue. Traveling to the Undergrowth will prove difficult — gather a small party for back up.

The vendor cart is abandoned with a broken axis, the fruit still good but the driver missing. Exploring further will allow the players to rescue Qun from a man-eating plant.

OUTCOMES:
- Anyone who participates in the search and rescue will receive 200 silver.
- Players can attempt repair the carriage and return the fruit back for cut of the food for free.
- Players who explore for the vendor will be able to fight a large man-eating plant similar to a venus flytrap with sentient vines. If Qun is rescued, you will receive an additional 100 silver.


Have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to PM me! These are all loosely based on your choices, so feel free to go wild with them. The outcomes only are indication of what the jobs would offer. If you're interested in having your character offer a job in the future, please let me know!

Ew or not, Reinhardt is going to at least give it a hell of a try. So he's just going to pile the plant, his hammer and the dude into the cart before he goes to the front of it. The added weight of the assassin shouldn't be that much more.

"All right" He puts hands on either handle and hefts. He lifts it. There's not much strain. It's maybe slightly heavier than his armor. "I'm going to need you to shout out directions. I've got to concentrate on putting one foot in front of the other. And keep a watch for monsters too. If I put this down, I don't know if I'll be able to pick it back up again." After all, he's old and dragging this all back is going to take it's toll on his muscles.

The good news is Zer0 probably weighs a lot less than anything else in the cart. He hops his skinny butt on up there and gives Reinhardt a thumbs up.

"Just leave it to me, / I'll keep monsters off your back. / Pothole on the left."

Watch your footing, old bro, tipping this whole thing over would super suck.

That there is the best news. It means he can make good time, so long as they both do their jobs. He tries to keep his pace quick. Partly because he's worried about his dinner wilting, but more because he wants to get the unconscious man to healers and what's left of the food in the cart to the people who need it.

"Thank you my friend. Hold on to your butt! I'm picking up the pace as soon as we get back to a normal road! After though, I'm definitely going to need a beer." A beer and about a 3 day nap, but right now, he's more than happy to charge his way back to Wyver, acting as a cart horse.

Zer0 will not hold onto his butt, thank you very much, but he is absolutely having a blast riding the Reinhardt Express. This hadn't been the most challenging job ever, but it was certainly one of the more entertaining.

"Beer, sounds like a good plan."

Hell yes celebratory beers. They've totally earned it after this.

They did indeed, and even if the beers but deeply into Reinhardt's profits for this job, he's totally going to treat his new friend.

They did indeed, and even if the beers but deeply into Reinhardt's profits for this job, he's totally going to treat his new friend. Which will be very soon as the speed he's going as they find the main road through to Wyver.

He won't slow down at all. Just barrel onto the city at a run, laughing his head off and calling for a medic. Not for himself, but for the man. He's still laughing when they get their silver. The plant thing is definitely getting cooked later. For now though, he throws a heavy, sweaty arm over ZerO's shoulder while his other arm hefts his hammer. No leaving that behind. "Now, come my friend. Beers await!"
