The dark and vaguely dank smelling supply room wing isn't a place many trolls choose to spend an evening unless they have work to do there or they need something, and need it now. With the exception of any non-essentials tossed into the tunnels, this is where the majority of the rebellions supplies were stored, ranging from weaponry to medical aid and food. The entire wing of the base had smaller rooms dedicated to specifics, each with a clipboad hanging out front. Anything moving in and out of this place is supposed to be marked on the log by the door, but you're not sure how often anyone checks to make sure it's actually being done. Still, it's obvious that things move in and out of here quite often. There are scrapes and scuffs all over the floor, along with crowbars and nails scattered along countertops. Lots and lots of nails.
A ways further in, past the boxes of necessities obviously full or completely unopened are empty ones scattered here and there. Some pretty old looking papers are lining the floor to the back, much of the writing faded and lost to time.

HOW TO PLAY
Teams can roll (1d6) to search for clues and expend a stamina point, either in the same location or in two different locations, using the form below. All trolls must search the same room as their teammates during each individual session. Please double check that you're in correct room before rolling.
Once you've rolled, you can check the chart (see spoiler) for your discovery. If you've landed a clue roll, your clue will be PMed to you at the end of the day. Please do not share clues in a public setting, but be sure to hang onto all of them and share them privately with your group!
You are free to respond to the mini-prompts you receive in this thread as well as roleplay. Landing on an NPC roll will trigger a short walk-by, which could give you even more hints, and will be posted in the room thread it was activated in. It can also be reacted to via RP, and other teams who rolled that day in the same location can witness it. Keep your eyes peeled and remember, the more you RP, the more you can search!
Reaching 200 words of RP per teammate in the ORP or any LOCATION thread will grant each team member an extra stamina (1 extra per location/orp for a maximum of 7 total throughout the entire game). Please quote the mule when each team member has met the requirement in any given thread. You may continue to RP in any room thread even after your rolls are complete. Additionally, at any given time during the week of gameplay, your Team Leader may quote the mule and grant your entire team 1 extra stamina, but only once.
Each day a mule post will be done in each location thread declaring the start of the next day. Your teams stamina fully recharges, and the prompt encounters in a thread may change.
The last day to roll is the 18th!

SUPPLY ROOM DISCOVERIES
If you rolled a 1...
You turn around a pile of crates only to see a gangly looking troll curled up against them, taking a nap among the shipments of gauze and bandages. Well, at least you were working.
If you rolled a 2...
Looks like you found something... (Please quote the mule to receive your clue PM at the end of the day.)
If you rolled a 3...
You peer at one of the clipboards full of logs, flipping through the curling pages. You notice various doodles of meowbeats and other cute creatures scrawled across the pages... someone's been working hard.
If you rolled a 4...
You wander into the very back of one of the scarcely used rooms, lifting up a plastic sheet covering a half dozen boxes to peer underneath. Your eyes meet bright red text spray painted on the side reading 'DANGER: EXPLOSIVE'. You weren't sure if the crates had been repurposed, but you didn't want to find out either.
If you rolled a 5...
Looks like you found something... (Please quote the mule to receive your clue PM at the end of the day.)
If you rolled a 6...
A whole stack of boxes in the corner were unlabelled, so you pry them open to give them a closer inspection. It was hundreds upon hundreds of canned peas, as were the other dozen or so crates. Well... that explained why peas had been on the menu each meal all week.

TROUBLE Team Members: Kursha Vidari, Byakko Mawiya, Rasali Panaka Your Roll: 6 Current Stamina: 3 - 1 = 2
Selecting his teammates was simply a matter of elimination. Of the trolls he recognised, Vremea already had a full group, Milieu was an uncomfortable memory, and Stryke... Stryke he wanted to avoid at all costs. That left him with one possible partner: Rasali. She had changed some since he had last seen her but her name came to him immediately. He never forgot a face—especially not the face of someone who wronged him. Still, together he and Rasali only made a team of two and if they wanted to keep up with the others they would need one more.* Yet everyone else called to the meeting was already accounted for. There was no one else to choose from.
So he invited Byakko Mawiya.
It was just the kind of out-of-the-box solution Kursha liked best. Why limit himself to seeking partners from the main group when there were potentially others available? Besides, who better to bring along than the leader of the rebellion herself? Sure, she may have been responsible for trusting the wrong people in the first place but she had sweeps' worth of information at her disposal. Maybe just looking at that information with a fresh perspective would provide them with the answers they sought.
In the meantime, Kursha had every intention of scouting out the base while he could. He wanted to familiarise himself with the territory early in the game in case anything should happen. He could make small talk while they explored.
“'Legs', huh?” he asked with a grin. They had arrived at the first supply room. Carefully avoiding the nails strewn across the floor, Kursha made his way over to the arsenal crates. He lifted a lid out of curiousity. “Interesting title. Did it come with the gig or is it more personal than that?” There was a dull clunk as he closed the crate. There was another sound too; footsteps coming from down the hall.
“'Hang on. Hold that thought.” Ducking back outside, Kursha intercepted a scruffy-looking redblood. He chatted up the other troll easily, and it did not take long before the redblood was fully engaged.
*Already Kursha's competitive nature had kicked in and the task of sniffing out the traitors had become a game. A game that he was going to win.

"He was an arrogant jerk," a scruffy redblood spat, crossing their arms sullenly as your casual conversation with them turned to the topic of Qinlon Aoguan. "He was never much of a trolls troll. Never said anything nice. Had a bad temper and a short tongue, and preffered to work alone. I guess that's partly why he and his morail Zhuque shared the leadership role? Everyone loved ol' Zhu, he was a charmer, rest in peace. But I guess despite being a blueblood, Qinlon was pretty committed..."

TROUBLE Team Members: Kursha, Rasali, Akko Your Roll: 1 Current Stamina: 1 - 1 = 0 (+1 bonus)
As the rebel council wrapped up and various teams of trolls began to disperse throughout the base on their individual searches, Byakko found herself in the company of two younger, unfamiliar greenbloods. She had been mildly stunned when a raspy voiced teen by the name of Kursha had approached her, asking her to join himself and Rasali in their own investigation. They were familiar enough in the sense she vaguely recognized their faces from past rebel gatherings, and while she was well aware of their previous involvement with the Initiative, she knew little of them personally save their names and symbols. Akko had no qualms working with her new acquaintances, if anything now that her position was no longer a secret she was eager to reach out and interact further with some of the other recruits outside her own limited social circle. She was tentatively optimistic as they began to poke around the Supply Rooms, holding idle conversation- that was until Kursha brought up her nickname, to her chagrin.
Byakko stiffened as he echoed the name she so strongly detested. I ******** knew this would happen. The hair on the back of her neck bristled as she remembered the blueblood's earlier outburst and her subsequent humiliation in front of her forces. <******** you, Zeffer Sirico. Turning slowly from the crates she had been rummaging through, the mutant craned her neck over to give Kursha an unwavering stare of disapproval. She opened her mouth to protest, but before she could respond, Kursha had darted off to talk to a rustblood who happened nearby. Akko sighed, returning to sifting through the contents of the boxes lining the Supply Room wall. Maybe he would just drop it...

The next night has begun. All teams stamina is restored back to 2 points, (with the exception of bonus stamina, which rolls over to the next day if it haven't been used!)
ACCIDENTAL FAMILY UNIT Team Members: Stryke Nvrmor, Lunear Reglos, Miliue Aojiro Your Roll: A whole stack of boxes in the corner were unlabelled, so you pry them open to give them a closer inspection. It was hundreds upon hundreds of canned peas, as were the other dozen or so crates. Well... that explained why peas had been on the menu each meal all week. Current Stamina:1-1=0
Ducking into the supply room after his earlier failed attempt at information gathering, and once again having been ignored by a certain a-hole, he was determined to find something to do. Tomorrow he'd just have to try and approach him directly; given he really hadn't even tried in all reality. Stryke for now however instead stuck to going about his own business.
While he'd had a brief interaction with one of what he believed was one of his team mates, it hadn't lasted for long. The blueblood had been troubled for some reason...he'd have to flag him down and ask for more information later.
So, instead of sitting around Stryke left the mess hall and went poking around elsewhere.
A brief moment of excitement as he rifled around had him focused on a particular set of boxes. The discovery of a large stack of unlabeled box had peeked his curiosity. With a bit of effort, he managed to wrestle the box open and peeked in. His brow shot up in question, scowling with his usual hard-line frown when he realized that it wasn't relevant, and in fact a crap ton of canned veggies. Pea's to be exact.
"oh boy...no wonder they've had pea's on the menu constantly." The kid made a face, not a big fan of the canned vegetables, but at least they had a large supply of food...sorta. Shaking his head slightly the yellowblood closed the box, contemplating what would be the next best course of action.

TROUBLE Team Members: Kursha Vidari, Byakko Mawiya, Rasali Panaka Your Roll: 4 Current Stamina: 2 - 1 = 1
Unfortunately, Kursha was like a dog with a bone. He had not forgotten and he would not drop it. After dismissing the redblood he trotted back to his teammates. Byakko was currently in the process of opening a series of nesting boxes. Kursha watched her for a moment, head cocked to the side. The boxes kept getting smaller and smaller. She must have been deep in thought not to notice.
“How's it going, Legs? Looking for marchbugs?” The greenblood leered, leaning towards her. It was just a bit of fun. He had not missed the look she had given him before. That had been a mistake on her part. She was giving him free artillery.
“Wow! Hey, check this out!” His attention had wandered once again... this time in a dangerous direction. He approached a stack of crates that were clearly marked as explosives. There was no avoiding it. He was drawn to them like a moth to the flame. A highly combustible flame. “You guys have some high quality material, huh?” It was almost nostalgic.
TEAM ******** Members: Zeffer, Aprife, Tete-onic plates Your Roll: 2 Current Stamina: 2/2 (5 extras) -1 = 1/2 (5 extras)
There was only one area of the base that the ******** hadn't yet searched, and so they set out that evening for the supply rooms. Like the mess hall and the meeting cavern, it seemed like a sort of strange place to search, but he knew Aprife wasn't about to go and leave anyplace unsearched. As they arrived, zeffer's attention was immediately pulled toward the little clipboard log pages hanging at the entrance of each room; those looked familiar, and he tapped one with a claw, looking slyly over at Aprife. It might do to check over them later, but he ducked into the first room instead, scrunching his nose at the musky smell and glancing about in the dim light.
It only took shoving an empty box with his foot, before he'd stumbled on something. "Heheh, you were right, Aprife. I guess this would be a pretty good place to hide stuff..." He motioned toward his find, waving Aprife and Muerte over quickly.
