Freshmen Quest: Building Maintenance
In light of the recent surprise infected mob, Corey has created a new duty for the University Faction: Building Maintenance. The goal of this quest is to patch up holes and create traps in an effort to protect the overall group.

Quest Notes
- This quest can not be completed solo. There must be two or more people in your group.
- Each person must do all the steps and dice rolls. No tag teaming!
- Your group is given a rather heavy bag of equipment. It's clearly all items from the maintenance shed, and includes such items as a hammer, some nails, a screwdriver set, some fishing line, a measuring tape, etc. Building maintenance supplies. These do NOT count as materials, just aids to help you ICly.
- This requires some imagination - after all, there is a very real chance you might be clogging a broken window with a bucket!
- No new people may join an open Building Maintenance Thread once the group moves on to step 2.

Step One - Material Gathering
- Before you can begin the maintenance, you must gather some materials!
- Roll a 5d12 in one post, and match your result to the materials below:
  • 1: You break a couple desks, and now have TWO pieces of wood! (+2 Materials)
  • 2: You find…a bucket? Well, alright. (+1 Material)
  • 3: There are a bunch of backpacks lying around. Three of them. Might as well bring them along. (+3 Materials)
  • 4: You lucky deviant! You found the Janitor's cart. It only has a mop, some cleaning supplies (a bottle of windex, some bleach, and 4 unused garbage bags), and precisely three towels. One of the towels is a grease rag though, at least the other two are clean. (+10 Materials)
  • 5: WILD CARD - You can find ONE item of your choice. It can be anything you think you would find in a university setting. Keep in mind that everyone has had a month to scavenge, so the pickings are slim! (+1 Material)
  • 6: You manage to pry down a dry erase board. It's got to be good for something. (+1 Material)
  • 7: You find a projector. Hurray? (+1 Material)
  • 8: WILD CARD - You can find TWO items of your choice. It can be anything you think you would find in a university setting. Keep in mind that everyone has had a month to scavenge, so the pickings are slim! (+2 Materials)
  • 9: There are a bunch of bells in a box. Three of them. We're not sure why. But there they are. (+3 Materials)
  • 10: You find a bottle of alka-seltzer near a bottle of coke… (+1 Material)
  • 11: WILD CARD - You can find ONE item of your choice. It can be anything you think you would find in a university setting. Keep in mind that everyone has had a month to scavenge, so the pickings are slim! (+1 Material)
  • 12: You find a stack of boring looking books. Three of them. Might as well put them to some use. (+3 Materials)

- Pool your resources. Make a master list of what was found, including how many of them there are. These will be the materials you get to work with as a group!
- Continue on to Step Two.

Step One-Point-Five: Choose post order
- This can be done however you want! You must go in post order for step two.

Step Two - Makeshift Maintenance
- Hurray, you have materials! Now to put them to use.
- Each person in the group rolls a 1d10 in turn, until there are no materials left to use. Pooled materials will be used on a first chosen-first used basis.
- Match your rolls to the problems below, and do your best to fix them using the pooled materials your group rolled earlier! This means you get to be a little creative with how some of the items are used.
- Once a material is used, it can not be used a second time. Once it's used, it's gone!
  • 1: You find a small hole in the wall. (Requires 1 material to fix)
  • 2: WILD CARD - You find something to fix. What it is, is your choice. (Requires 2 materials to fix)
  • 3: There is a slightly broken window. (Requires 1 material to fix)
  • 4: This window is very broken. (Requires 2 materials to fix)
  • 5: WILD CARD - You find something to fix. What it is, is your choice. (Requires 1 material to fix)
  • 6: Some of the flooring is compromised, and has a foot-shaped hole in it. (Requires 1 material to fix)
  • 7: There is a large hole in the wall. (Requires 2 materials to fix)
  • 8: This floor is a mess. A whole person could fit down there (Requires 4 materials to fix)
  • 9: WILD CARD - You find something to fix. What it is, is your choice. (Requires 1 material to fix)
  • 10: One of the vents is open. It's a large vent. Someone could fit through it, unless you fix it. (Requires 2 material to fix)

- If you don't have enough items to finish the last fix - don't worry about it. Really. As long as all your materials are gone, this quest is considered complete!

Course Credits
- If you and your team mates complete this quest - meaning everyone has completed their dice rolls and has written at least 400 words - you all receive FIVE course credits.
- This is all or nothing - meaning all of you have to meet the criteria to get the credits. If one person doesn't finish this quest/word count, nobody gets it!
- Don't forget to link completed quests and earned credits in your journal!

"C'mon, lets go do something useful." Without much of a ceremonial introduction than that, Rook would soon find himself literally dragged (With Charlies good arm) towards the maintenance Shed. The pickings were slim, not being much else to work with other than the few supplies left. It wasn't exactly ground breaking, but it would have to do.

"I can't do muck with my bum arm, but i can be of help with the other." He waved his left arm before he grabbed a few things. The backpacks would be good for plugging holes, but they also would carry the other objects in the meantime.

"I dunno, I find napping pretty useful." He chirped from behind Charlie. This was getting crazy. Every time he tried to settle down for a light cat nap, someone decided to wake him up. But it would be Charlie that would drag him off to do the most exhausting chore of them all, such as building maintenance. Rook was so very much against the idea, that anyone in the area would have heard the whines and groans through the halls until he was dragged outside. He stopped, eventually, settling for obediently following the taller man and collecting whatever items he could find and use.

Boards were useful, especially since they had nails to use on the boards to place over broken windows and other holes in their precious university. Backpacks, he'd ask Charlie for ideas, and he really had no idea what to do with the bottle of alka-seltzer. But he definitely planned on bringing the bottle of coke back.

"Wait come again? Can't do ******** with your bum? There's medicine for that, kay." Unlike Charlie, Rook's arms worked perfectly fine. His ears on the other hand...

The rebuke came fast and sudden, a slap to the back of rooks head with his good hand. "Don't be an idiot." Charlie huffed, Rook was known to be just that at the best of times. Although his recent hearing loss seemed to make matters all the more focused.

"You know, Supplies are low...but." He eyed a window which clearly had some broken parts to it. Eying two of the bookbags, he squished two of them against the window. Thankfully they were long enough to span the window, being as he used the nails to nail the ends into the wooden frame.

"...Don't look at me like that, it works ok."

9: WILD CARD - You find something to fix. What it is, is your choice. (Requires 1 material to fix)


Rook gave a muffled sound of annoyance; muttering something under his breath about sending Charlie to the glue factory, as he rubbed his head. However, he quickly perked up again. "No need to be ashamed about toilet trouble. It happens man." Apparently the idiocy couldn't be cured with just one hit. "I don't think they'll be upset if you used a little something to help your--oh!"

There was plenty to fix, but there was one particular small hole that he didn't feel like wasting a board on. But he did have a certain useless bottle, which he crammed into the hole, wedging it in so tightly it was impossible to budge again. "What d'yah know? It really does help." He announced, before turning to look at Charlie's handy job.

Erm... "If you say so."

Oddly he felt the bottle being stuffed into the hole worked, it at least took care of the breeze.

"....So help me, Rook, i will use some of this duck tape on your mouth." Charlie seriously owed whomever hurt rooks hearing a swift kick with his booted foot. Around then he looked up, noticing the giant vent open on the ceiling. "Well crap." Looking around he found a old desk to stand on. Carefully climbing, it was a good thing he was nearly 6 foot. "Hand me some nails." He ordered down at Rook, using two of the boards to form an X over the vent.

"I'm just saying!" Personally Rook would also like to kick whoever destroyed his hearing, just because. "And don't you even dare!" He eyed the roll of duct tape warily, before he made himself busy by stuffing an emptied backpack into the wall. Though when Charlie called to him, he gave the other man a strange look, before he visibly realized what Charlie had really said, and fetched the nails from the floor. "Careful you don't hit yourself."

"What's that look for?" He frowned down at the other man just before hopping down off the desk. "Look like you got something lodged where it shouldn't be." Even Charlie could crack a smile now and then, even at his own humor.

As it was these windows were in horrible shape... taking the last backpack he had, he duck taped it to the wall.

"And yet it still served me better here than it ever would during school days." He gave a blissful sigh, pretending to think back on the good old days, before he proceeded to shove another bag into another hold. This time one directly below him.

"Hmmm." He actually thought about that for a moment, watching with a curious stare at Rook while ge decided to shove another backpack into a hole. Around that time was when Charlie found a bigger whole in the ground. Geez... he only had 2 books left. He dropped them into it at least!

"Hey....Rook.....You like shoving things into holes right?" He pointed towards the floor. "Be my guest?" Was he actually teasing someone?

And there went the last backpack. He crammed the next to useless object into the newest small hold he found and grinned at Charlie.

"Charlie, are you trying to dirty talk me?" He asked teasingly and came over to see what the taller man was up to. "Wow that is a big one. I'm out of backpacks though, and I don't think a backpack would cover that anyways." He did have some boards though and set about nailing them to the floor. The task itself ended up requiring two, but at least it was securely covered now.

"Dirty talking?" He frowned at Rook, clearly not understanding why shoving backpacks into holes was dirty talking. He was being serious!

As the hole was at..least semi better patched, Charlie made a wave to push Rook to the lead. "C'mon Freshie your holding up the day." He showed his hands now free of patching supplies.

Rook, unable to speak, due to carrying a few nails in his teeth, let out an amused sound as he carried two more boards over towards the opposite wall. At this point he wasn't surprised that he had found another hole. It was only when he spat the nails into his hand and started hammering the boards to the wall, that he responded. "I'm almost done, hold your horses. You just rest that arm of yours, eh?"

He muttered something under his breath at the 'horses' comment. "Only if you rest your head. Ears and mouth included." He grumped back, unsure if the other kid could even hear him. How bad was the eat trauma?

"....Any ear pain with that knock to the head you took?" Even now his medical knowledge was always aware of these things. Rook could get an ear infection if he wasn't careful, hmm.

The comment did indeed go unheard, as Rook busied himself with hammering the last board, a much shorter one, over a decent sized hole he had found in another section of the wall.

"Hmm? Oh, yeah. There's some pain, but I'll manage." He assured, giving him a light pat on his shoulder, now that his hands were free of any objects. "How about you? Do you think its broken?" He motioned towards Charlie's arm, a look of concern visible on his face.
