DUNGEON INFO ♛ JANUARY
FOR 20 JANUARY (DIANTHE) 2016
Mutters and murmurs fill the air on the morning of the 20th as Menchik awakens to a frightening sight. A gigantic crystal swan floats in the center of Lebedche Lake, bobbing slowly in the waves. Circling the crystal are flocks of black swans and anyone who tries to come near will soon learn that the birds are not to be trifled with. Anyone who comes within the birds’ sights will be ruthlessly attacked. No intruders will be tolerated and the citizens of Menchik quickly learn to steer clear of the crystal now occupying their lake.
”But what about our livelihood?! You can’t force us to stay indoors!”
Security measures have been put in place and citizens have been requested to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. Heroes are asked to escort the emergency cases and many citizens will be clamoring for attention.
Lebedche Lake is absolutely off-limits for the regular folk. But for Heroes, there is an alternative point of entrance. The forest cave Alumina was found in is said to lead to the center of the lake… Though the path leading underground is currently blocked by a magical barrier.
More details about Menchik can be found here. A preview of the dungeon can be found below.

LOCATION ♙
Lebedche Lake is the powerhouse behind Menchik’s industry. Bountiful in fish and gentle, easy to navigate waters, it provides many a Menchikan with a stable source of income. Couples love to gather at the shores and watch the swans land on the water. Lebedche Lake’s true treasures, however, lie underground. The brave adventurer Hendrik Walter Yancy was one of the first to boldly go where no one had ever gone before and ventured deep into the mines located in Välljud. In the endless tunnels leading him beneath the lake, he discovered a wellspring of iron, steel and titanium. The veins have yet to run dry and provide Menchik with the materials needed to keep producing their mechanical equipment.
AMBIENCE ♙
The rustling of feathers, the clicking of beaks. The swans circling the crystal never rest, as if waiting for one’s death. Occasionally, a sharp hissing noise cuts through the air and echoes down the streets of Menchik, making every hair stand on end. Without rhyme or reason, an eerie song can be heard from the lake, beckoning to you sweetly, like a lover’s alluring smile. Be warned: The longer you stare at the swan crystal, the heavier your heart grows with grief. You become fragile as the slightest nudge sends a shiver down your spine, ready to shatter into a million pieces.
Note: Dungeons from now on will be Ranked. This means that all upcoming dungeons will now have a significant increase in difficulty. This will become IC knowledge in the dungeon log. Difficulty will be replaced by Ambience.
LOOT ♙
FAILURE PENALTY ♙
A fallen Hero will respawn outside of the dungeon grounds and gain the uncontrollable desire to mana exchange* anywhere with anyone. It is also possible for a Hero to turn into a swan, beak and wings included. How aware they are of their state and surroundings is up to the players. The effect will last for two to seven days.
*Please remember to obtain OOC permission from your character’s targets before mana exchanging with anyone!
While the nature of some of the loot can be inferred from the location information and the historical and mythical background is general knowledge, dungeon difficulty and penalty for failing the dungeon are strictly OOC knowledge.
You are no longer required to form a party to participate in the dungeon. As of January 2017, dungeons are now Ranked. Therefore, all Heroes will be able to freely interact with any participating character. You no longer need to sign up to participate in a dungeon raid.
In addition, you no longer need to submit Dungeon Clears. You can ICly claim whatever loot you would like, so long as the amount and kind of the loot is within reason you were not defeated in the dungeon. You will still ICly receive colle as reward for your participation.
The dungeon log will go up on the 20th. Don't know how dungeons work? We've got you covered! All questions about the dungeon may be directed here. Feel free to use this post to plot as well!
