What are Side Quests and how do they work?
Side Quests are optional missions/jobs that are posted on the Libra Network each month for characters to do. New quests will appear every month around the same time as the OOC plotting post (so about the 28th), but ICly will appear on the app on the 1st of the month.

Players will sign up their characters to do particular quests, either by themselves or with a group. During the sign up, players will give information on how well a character would do on a particular quest (for example: if an illiterate character was asked to read some books to children, you should mention that they can't read). With this information factored in, the mod helper will respond with roughly how smoothly the quest will turn out based on a combination of your characters skills and RNG.

From there, players are free to play out or handwave the side quests as they wish! While we ask that players sign up for quests that are happening in the current month, players can backdate quest threads as much to your liking.

There is no limit to how many characters can be part of a single quest group. You can do quests by yourself, or have a raid party of 30 characters.

You can sign up for as many group quests (2 or more characters) as you like. While you can sign up for a solo quest, they are currently restricted to one per month per character.

Are there Rewards?
Each quest will have IC rewards for characters that vary depending on the quest and how well the characters do.

On the OOC end, turning in quest threads that have at least 3 comments from your character will earn you 1 free gacha point. The quest doesn't need to be completed, it just needs to have at least three comments from your character in order to be eligible. While you can sign up for as many group quests as you like in a month, you can only redeem up to 3 gacha points per month. Threads for quests from previous months can be redeemed as well, but it'd count towards the quest turn-ins for the current month. In group quests, when redeeming gacha points, please be sure that each player who wishes to redeem the thread for a gacha roll comments individually so we can keep track of individual free gacha totals.

[scryption]

Player(s): Saffy & Jade
Character(s) Involved: Zero (scryption) & Rose (poisontippedcure)
Quest Name: Catch and Release
Relevant Skills: Zero has enhanced strength. She is going to try not to use weapons unless really necessary since the targets need to be alive. Rose has an Anemo Vision that will let her gather up Pokemon in one area, potentially making them easier to capture, as well as the use of illusions. If any Pokemon get hurt she can heal them too.
Anything else?: Zero doesn't know much about Pokemon, but when confronted with the insatiably adorable moon bunnies in canon, she stared at them like an anime villain to the point where they got super intimidated and some of them ran. I imagine she will be doing that here. Who needs a 'mon when you can use Mean Look yourself?

The plan is to set a humane trap and herd a Pokemon into it through the use of illusions + Zero glaring, including possibly a Huge Illusion of Zero Glaring. If that doesn't work, the power of Anemo might allow them to suck in every creature in a small radius and slam dunk them into the trap. SOMETHING ought to work, good god.

MISSION: VERY SUCCESSFUL

[kaisoumods]

Zero and Rose head into the Kaisou region to look out for some pokemon- it takes them a little while of travelling before they come across a group of Wobbuffet. Somehow the "Zero glares at pokemon until they run into Rose's trap" plan works flawlessly. The poor Wobbuffet try to make a whole display out of not being threatened by the glaring, but eventually, they retreat when she just doesn't budge- the illusions help herd them right into a trap. They rinse and repeat this a few other times with some Blissey and then a group of Gothitelle (who honestly seem more inclined to get close to Zero than anything else, maybe they think she's one of them). Eventually, they bring their captured pokemon to Alba. He promises he'll take good care of them and he'll definitely release them back into the Kanto Realm later on.

Much like Jun before her, Alba seems extremely interested in Zero and keeps asking her all sorts of questions- where's she from? where does she work? has she gone to that nice coffee place? - it's disguised as idle small talk but he certainly has an intensity to him that's clear to see. Weirdly, he doesn't have the same questions for Rose at all. He barely even acknowledges her. Which is honestly kind of rude.

For their victory, they each get $2000 and one of those deluxe art kits.
