Another day and another search for supplies. Renita had had pretty good luck finding spare umbrellas the last few times she'd gone out, and she hoped that was a streak that held up. Even if she didn't get out and socialize with other faction members as much as she probably should have yet, she was still being productive and helping out. Until the time came to branch out more, she hoped that would be enough.

Today she went in search of another few houses she hadn't been through yet, going room through room. She took her time with it, as per the hour rule, and looked for other supplies too. But the only haul of the day was exactly the kind she was looking for. Three umbrellas, all in perfect condition. She twisted a bright yellow one in her hands as she made her way back home, admiring how much it stood out.



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.

Quote:
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.


  1. You find an umbrella!
  2. Sorry, no umbrella for you.
  3. You find an umbrella!
  4. Sorry, no umbrella for you.
  5. You find an umbrella!
  6. You find an umbrella!
  7. Sorry, no umbrella for you.
  8. You find an umbrella!

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.
