DROPBOX

This page is a quick way to get in touch with the mod team. If you have a suggestion for a future event, would like to request NPC interaction, need clarification on something, or have questions about anything Peckenpaugh-related, you can post that here. All comments on this page are screened initially, but threads with valuable information may be made public. You can also contact us via email at peckishmods@gmail.com. We will try to address all questions and requests in a timely manner. If it has been seven days and you have not received a response, we encourage you to bump your comment with an edit or reply.

What sorts of things can I ask about here?

• Questions about the setting at large.
• Questions about NPCs.
• Questions about the application or the character roster.
• If you need clarification of the rules, IC or OOC.
• If you would like mod assistance, permission or input on an event you'd like to run.
• If you want your character to do something, but aren't sure if it's okay to do, or if you'd like to know potential IC consequences before you do something.
• Suggestions for pcal slots, events or anything of that nature.
• Requests for NPC interactions with staff, townies and any other mod controlled characters roaming the hills.
• Requests for a roll if you're out late at night or otherwise doing something that might get you in trouble. What does the roll net you? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
• Once a month you may request an RNG roll to see if you find anything cool at Spellunking or are successful in acquiring spirits from Elflock Liquor.
• If you need to drop a character or leave the game. :(
• And, honestly, anything game related!

The gardens do look rather lovely today, though maybe not supernaturally so. Plants have begun to return as spring creeps across the campus, the sun peeks out from behind the clouds, and the fountain in the hedge maze looks strangely… inviting? It looks cool, tranquil, and a few flowers have sprung up around the base, including a few purple buds. They could just be regular old morning glories, maybe a few honeysuckles, but they look a little misshapen, crooked. Might be worth keeping a sample, as long as you don’t make any ink out of them.

The graveyard is as it always is, still and silent. Once or twice, you can spot one of the Goodliffes watching from the window of their big purple Victorian, suspicious of what teenagers might be doing in the graveyard. Fresh flowers have been set out on several graves, and pebbles are stacked on the headstones of one or two.

In their wanderings, they find one thing of particular interest: a set of gravestones with fresh flowers set out. The larger of the two reads: CALEB QUALLS father. husband. hero. 1928 - 1989 and MARILYNN QUALLS mother. wife. warrior. 1931 - 1998.

The second gravestone looks as though someone’s made an effort to clean it fairly recently, but lichen still clings to it and it’s largely corroded. In addition to flowers, someone has left a set of small paint brushes. What remains of the headstone reads: “ALLS Dream sweetly, ... world is dim...r for losing y... colors. 1972 - 1989.”

hi armani wants to knock on the goodliffe's door and chanel is coming too. he will be very polite in his greeting and introduce themselves. (hello, ms. goodliffe! it's been a while since the gingerbread competition hasn't it??) they're in appalachian history club,
you see, and they have a few questions, if they wouldn't mind sparing a moment of their time. the goodliffes have been an important part of the elflock community for so, so long so maybe they'd have the most knowledge..

if they decide to entertain them...

armani would like to: read off from his notebook the riddle that was said on spirit day hell night. do they perhaps have a clue who any of the peole references are?

chanel would like to: ask about the decayed qualls headstone. (armani looks a little sheepish.)

Persephone Goodliffe is happy to have the students inside. Unfortunately, she's spent a fair chunk of her adult life away from Elflock Falls, so she fetches her mother. Angharad Goodliffe (you can call her Angie) is an ancient, fiery witch who seems instantly charmed by the twins and their excellent fashion sense (she looks a bit like she's still mourning a husband who died when Queen Victoria reigned). Persephone fetches some spider-shaped vegan chocolate chip cookies she just happened to be baking and offers some while Angie hears Armani and Chanel's questions.

Persephone is unfamiliar with the riddle, though she can certainly see why the students would come here.

Angie puzzles over it a moment, musing softly,"I thought there were four..." And then, squinting, "I'm not sure...Hmm. Ah, it's doing that cloudy thing, again." The old witch snaps out of her distracted reverie with a smile, "Best not think on it too hard, then, right? Darling, you should look up Peckenpaugh's former Heads of House."

As for the headstone:
That's the Qualls family plot, of course. Even Marilynn is buried there. She left after Caleb's untimely passing, but still wanted to be interred with him. The, what? Oh, the other name. That's their older son. Li—Hmm. Can't seem to recall his name. And it's obscured on the stone, you say? Strange. No, Angie can't recall his name, and Persephone was too young when he died. A hunt for Uncle Methodius produces not even a hint of ectoplasm. The Goodliffes promise to crack open the records and see what they can find.

Sure enough, a few days later, an owl arrives for the Thorntrail Juniors at breakfast. "Unfortunately, it seems our records have been damaged, and we can't seem to track down the older Qualls son's name. Do stop by again sometime, though!" It's signed by both Angharad and Persephone.
