Renita hummed quietly to herself as she made her way downstairs, an umbrella in one hand and plans made to go out and find as many more of them as she could. They were an important part of life here in the apartments now that they were an organized faction, and it was well known that you had to have one with you to prove you belonged. The thing about umbrellas, though, was that they got lost, or they got broken, and so it was necessary to have back ups for those unfortunate souls who found themselves without.

Today, she intended to make an addition to that back up supply. She waved to the guards at the doors today as she passed, heading out into the streets and towards some houses she vaguely remembered. It was as good a place to look as any. And luckily, it was exactly the right place to look. Several hours later she returned, a bundle of four umbrellas in her arms.

GATHERING UMBRELLAS
Before the outbreak, people really only used umbrellas when it rained. These days, they are highly sought after, at least if you're looking to make your home at Clearview. Every resident must carry three things with them at all times: a key card, knowledge of the current Clearview Salute, and an umbrella. Sometimes umbrellas are lost. It is up to the community to keep their numbers up.

While completing this quest, each roll you make spans one hour. You may only gather umbrellas for five hours at a time (so that's five rolls). Don't ask why; it's something about losing the ability to spot them over time that Zelda probably made up.

You may roll as many 8-sided dice per post as you like, as long as you don't exceed five. One per post might be nice if you're completing this task with others so you can alternate, but that's your call. Place and time are up to you, as long as it's not to far from the building, but be aware that venturing out at night by yourself might get you in trouble. Also up to you: the color and style of the umbrellas you find. Ooo.

If you find three or more regular-sized umbrellas in a single trip and post over 100 words in this quest, Zelda will reward you with two cocktail umbrellas back at the apartments! (The umbrellas you roll for here do not count as ones you can collect!) Please claim them in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located here.
