Sign Language sign ups and IC Info Sharing!

[achievementhunter]

Henlo friembs I have a few things to enquire with you today!


IC Info Sharing
Chara has recently acquired a handy dandy notebook! With this tool in their arsenal, they intend to do what they do best- be completely invasive of other's privacy and stubbornly attempt to strong arm them into sharing all of their secrets.

Essentially, they'd like to catalog the abilities and skills people on the island have, with the intent of having this be public knowledge. With this, characters will be capable of locating others who may have the skills they need to get a job done, flesh out a party of adventurers, or beg for certain resources...such as clothes.

Rather than take up everyone's time with sixty plus threads of Chara getting this info, I have a handy dandy little textarea to fill out with what your character would be willing to divulge. Note that Chara will make it clear that this info will be public knowledge, and that when a network goes up, they have full intentions of putting it up there.


Sign Language sign ups!

It's been mentioned a couple of times that people would be interested in their characters learning or teaching sign language! So another handy little textarea below has some initial info to collect about that, after which I'll pop up a new thread for people to elect who they want to learn from/who they're already teaching!

As Laura has pointed out, this is also a cool opportunity for the variety of languages known to adopt a island specific pidgin- mingling together a bunch of knowledge to create something entirely new. All of this stuff has the opportunity to be handwaved or threaded out, so it's a nice opportunity for new or continuing CR!


And now, the textareas

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
She took an elective class very briefly back in whatever the Underground's educational system has as an equivalent to sophomore year of high school. That was like nine years ago and she remembers maybe five words of what she learned, so. Not exactly an expert, to say the least.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn, please.

Re: IC INFO

[prettypurpleparlor]

Green magic (that is, healing directly and making healing items), cooking and baking, producing silk, weaving, purple magic (binding things together with magical threads).

[despairing_hope]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
He has seen JSL on tv and picked it up here and there, he would say he's no good, but can surprisingly figure out what other people say when using it despite that.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn, being prepared is important.

[hyperlit]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
They are fluent! In general you can assume it's a fictionalized variant of something resembling ASL cause I don't wanna go around committing to inventing a whole new sign language from the ground up.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
They'd be happy to teach!

[catpiper]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
None whatsoever. She will be The Worst Student.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn!

[encircling]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Hunting (specifically with a bow and arrows), plant identification, potions/tinctures and the making of, black magic (elemental/destructive), white magic (healing).

[encircling]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
Not even a little.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn, please.

[alittleditty]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Raw textile processing, spinning, weaving, basic outfit design, sewing. Goldsmithing/gemcutting. Basic mining. Math/accounting principles (for whatever they're worth here). Organizing supplies. JUGGLING

Her special tonic is staying a secret though

[alittleditty]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
Nope, none at all. Even if she did it would probably be some kind of Eorzean variant.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn!

[solperierat]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
doctorate level knowledge in chemistry and alchemy, superhuman strength, flight, "Heather called me a GPS once, I guess you can call it that?", basic wilderness survival knowledge, knows where a support beam needs to go

[solperierat]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
he's seen Amestrian military sign once or twice, but doesn't know any of it. He does have knowledge of morse code, however!

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
t e a c h h i m, and I guess if anyone wants to learn morse he can be the most impatient teacher ever (what do you MEAN people need more than a few days studying to memorize an alphabet???)

[hyperlit]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Combat, both long-range and short. Mapping and exploration. Affinity for handling various kinds of weapons, including blades, firearms, and explosives. Ability to move very quickly for very brief windows of time and just a general ability for covering a lot of ground.

Am I allowed to list 'Puns/Bad Jokes' as one of his skills?

[shatteredlenses]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?

Weapon summoning (his daggers), Analyze/Libra (magically discovers an enemy's stengths/weaknesses), minor regeneration & moral boost (moral boost has proven to slightly increase the power of magical attacks for those whose magic is tied to their emotions--for example, Muffet from Undertale), cooking, general first aid/survival skills, sewing, trained in strategy/tactics extensively, general battle skill (acrobatics, hit and run), extensively trained in dagger use with polearms as a secondary focus, walking encyclopedia of way too much odd information.

Note: Still adjusting to his lost vision, so that will obviously affect several of the above listed skills/abilities.

[yourattention]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Basic first aid, knots (he'll say "lashing," but he actually knows several different knot skills including macrame), weaving, swimming (mostly said because Chara's asking), trees

[shatteredlenses]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
Unless Crownsguard/Kingsglaive hand signals count, he has no applicable prior knowledge.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn, though his blindness would require a teacher who is patient and willing to work outside of normal teaching methods. He's well aware of how difficult teaching him will be, so he won't push for it if no teacher is able/willing to take up the task.

[shedgrace]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Healing and gardening, with some burgeoning study of medicinal plants. And religious services.

[crosslaced]

If pestered on his homestead on islet #1, Chara will find that Laurent's horse is doing well, as promised.

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Hunting, the average human’s ability to craft/collect resources. He can also get ice for people?? Basic knowledge of animals??? Oh, a great deal of sea-salt from his still. Please take some of his salt.
If asked: yes, he’s good in combat & favors the sword.

He'll ask specifically that Chara does not publicise his horse. She's not a farm appliance, and no one’d better be thinking otherwise.

[crosslaced]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
nope

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn, but I prefer to have this handwaved!

Re: SIGN LANGUAGE

[justribbing]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
Sans can speak in hands sign in ASL.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Sans can teach, but he'd probably ask for a favor in return.

Re: SIGN LANGUAGE

[souris_keteer]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
Nope, none at all. But he's a quick learner!

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
Learn!

Re: IC INFO

[souris_keteer]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
The only thing I can think of right now is passing along the magic skills he learned from a friend - a basic healing spell (will cure small cuts/bruises/burns) and a basic fire spell (enough for a small campfire).

[thisisourfuture]

What abilities/skills would your character be happy to provide as public knowledge?
Mild farming, good for hard labor, good at investigative work, cleaning, and rudimentary carpentry.

[thisisourfuture]

Does your character have any prior knowledge?
None. Whatever he knew before is hidden in that swiss cheese memory of his.

Would you like to have your character learn or teach?
He definitely would be a learner.
