War Table
THE WAR TABLE
Operations
- Characters may not participate in more than one war table operation at a time.
- Sign-ups are first come, first served. After the minimum number of characters is reached, we'll wait approximately 48 hours to allow additional sign-ups before closing the operation and giving participants the necessary information.
- Travel time for operations outside of Skyhold can and should be OOCly condensed/handwaved for the sake of not RPing weeks upon weeks of roadside camping, but you're welcome to set scenes along the way as well.
- Operations will not be GMed, but we're always happy to answer questions or provide additional details as requested.
- If you would like to suggest a war table operation--if your character is doing something other people should probably notice and investigate, their relatives are causing trouble, etc.--let us know on the Plot Request page.

The Secrets of Andraste: The team that investigated the ruins beneath and beyond the Temple of Sacred Ashes returned with ancient texts and artifacts. Adequately cataloging and translating these finds could help the Inquisition recover some of the political ground it has lost with the Chantry since the Herald's death. The texts, unfortunately, are written in an ancient runic script that no one in the Inquisition can fully translate. One scholar suggests that they are Alamarri, and the closest links are likely to be found among the Chasind Wilders. This operation requires four to six characters who will be absent from Skyhold for at least ten days. Those chosen will be told to equip for a fight but to try not to start one.
Orlais
The Chantry Remains: The Chantry's scattered condemnations of the Inquisition ceased--or at least ceased being publicly trumpeted--for a respectful period after the Herald's death, but the accusations of heresy and calls for the organization's disbandment have renewed. This operation requires three to five characters, with preference given to those who will not be immediately branded heretics as soon as they show their faces or open their mouths, who will be absent from Skyhold for at least five days.
Skyhold
Investigate Lyrium Theft: Small amounts of lyrium have been disappearing from the Inquisition's stores with enough regularity that it can no longer be considered a coincidence, and the Inquisition is looking into the problem. Those asked to help will need to be capable of discretion. This operation requires three to four characters who will need to remain in Skyhold for the seven days during the investigation.

INFO REQUESTS
If your character is investigating, experimenting, researching, normal-searching, organizing, exploring, polling, or anything along those general lines and you'd like mod input about what the results would be, ask us here! There's no form for this, just let us know what they're up to and what your question is and we'll get back to you. While requests and replies will generally be unscreened, please make sure to check whether results are IC public knowledge before assuming that your character is aware of them.
PLOT REQUESTS & IDEAS
We strongly encourage player plots, quests, missions, adventures and so on, especially ones that grow out of PC action. We are also always open to ideas if players have something in mind but feel for some reason that they can't run a prospective plot themselves. So that requests and answers can be screened, please use the form on the Plot Request page.

PARTICIPANTS: Salvatore, Bruce, Adelaide
LOG: Log
REPORT:
Commander Cullen & Advisors,
Upon our arrival at Redcliffe we made our way firstly to Arl Teagan. The Mage Salvatore spoke with him, and as is his custom was respectful, contrite, and empathetic to the wrongs suffered by he and his people in what the Mages had done. Apologies were made and reparations offered beyond the funds for rebuilding. Bruce tended to those injured or ill that were not comfortable with magical healing, I myself treated as many as possible with magic and Salvatore assisted one or the other of us, going about to be present and pleasant. There was a young boy (Calum) that followed us at a distance for some time- at first we thought it mere curiosity but upon approaching him he admitted why he had been watching us. He had developed magic and without the circles to be sent to- he and his mother (Annis) do not know what to do. He had already burned one of the family's chickens to a crisp-
After some deliberation the best option we came to was bringing Calum and his family to Skyhold where he could be taught control and mentored properly. It has taken some coaxing but they will be joining us on the return trip and Calum shall be granted a personal mentor until he has caught up with the rest of the students and apostates in Skyhold. I take personal responsibility for whatever comes of him.
We hope these actions are to the Inquisition's satisfaction.
- Councilor LeBlanc
