Ealei is famous for growing some of the most delicious fruits on Eyre. Now, no one expects your elnin to be climbing to the High Reaches, but perhaps they'd like to pick some fresh fruit from the orchards growing atop Yggdrasil's lower branches or across its sprawling roots. Show your elnin collecting fruits in Ealei!

The trees and orchards in Yggdrasil are a little bit different from other places on Eyre, with saplings being grafted directly to the great tree instead of being planted in soil. They say that this is why the fruit from Ealei is so amazing because the trees they grow from are nurtured by mana directly from the source.

Palu'au has a thriving fish trade, the shallow waters being home to some of Eyre's most bizarre delicacies. I mean sure Ealei has the best-tasting fish for everyday eating, and yeah they're super healthy blah blah. But you only get the really weird stuff from the Rainbow Reef. Why not have your elnin assist some of the local fishermen with their work? They're always looking for a helping hand since these are tricky catches after all [not like Ealei where the fish practically jump into your boat... no honest labor to be had... no of course there's no rivalry between the two fishing trades, that's silly]. Show your elnin fishing up something exotic from the tropical waters of Palu'au, or else being show how to prepare and eat their unusual catch once they've reeled it in.

Ahza's dessert towns are often built around oases and townspeople are thankful for strapping little helpers to cart water around to homes and shops. Depict your elnin bringing water to town. Are they carting it in a giant jug on their back? Are they traveling with a water-bearing caravan? How do they bring the life-giving substance to the Ahzanese?

Bellmoril is an academic's wonderland, but somebody has to deliver the really odd bits and bobs that the scholars like to use for their "premium" inks and spellwork experiments. Show your elnin bearing supplies for clients in Bellmoril. What kind of magical miscellany are they carrying? Are they carefully porting delicate gadgetry, or feeling anxious about whether or not this caged reptile might be poisonous?

Elnins are by far the most wander prone race on Eyre, and whether for nobles embarking on far-ranging jobs or for villagers hitching a ride with a caravan for leisure, traveling supplies are always in high demand. Show your elnin putting together a traveler's kit, or else show them acquiring/making the items that would go into one [medical supplies/preserved food/tents/clothing/lanterns/etc].

Who doesn't love a good small-town party or a fundraiser for a worthy cause? What sort of event does your elnin decide to organize? Depict your elnin either preparing for this event or taking part in the event itself. How do they rise to the occasion to get others on board? Do they construct fliers or do they sing their advertisements in the street? Is this an outdoor event? If the piece is focused on preparations, be sure to feature the event somehow [show a close up of the flier or perhaps event decorations in the background as your elnin tries to advertise/etc]!

This doesn't need to be a huge event! It can be anything! A group of kittoms getting together to set up miniature fruit juice stalls, a regular old party if your elnin is the type to mingle, an art show held in a big city, and so on. Go by what you think makes sense for your elnin.

A local elnin has come down with dusk fever!! What does your elnin do to help them recover? Do they bake cookies to help sate the bothersome sweet tooth that accompanies this malady? Do they put together their grandmother's trusted herbal remedy? Show your elnin caring for the poor sick individual.

Dusk fever occurs in people who have been in contact with the outskirts of a miasmic veil. It is a low-grade case of mana poisoning, but still very serious if left untreated simply due to the intense symptoms. Apart from the expected fever, sufferers will also experience extreme lethargy, paleness, seizures, hallucinations, and, oddly, an extreme case of a sweet tooth. Treatment is usually straight forward, plenty of rest, symptom management, and a bit of mana therapy from a local healer to speed the process. Most people with dusk fever make a full recovery with no lasting side effects.
[This act may be done in reversed roles. In this case, show your elnin being cared for by another. The same requirements apply, though, the type of care or treatment must be shown.]

Your elnin has come across a brand new elseworlder who seems to be quite confused! Who and what are they, and what does your elnin do to help the poor soul adjust to this new world? Do they volunteer to escort their new acquaintance to the outsider friendly Ealei, or do they decide to show them around town first?

An "elseworlder" is a creature or humanoid that is not native to Eyre, ie other CS species. Eyre has many odd portals into other worlds that just appear and disappear randomly all the time, sometimes they strand visitors from other realms, or sometimes visitors come here intentionally through some of the more stable gateways in the larger cities.

Just be sure that you have the species owner's permission before using their CS in your acts. A list of confirmed CS that are approved to appear on Eyre can be found in the FAQ section of our "General Prompt Guidelines" page. In an effort to be respectful and to keep elnins from potentially disrupting other groups, please do not submit your "Berry Bazaar" ARPG art to other CS galleries. This is especially true for CS such as Esk, which have a very insular universe and we don't want to step on any toes. Basically treat this is an alternate universe experience for any outside CS that you bring to Eyre just to be safe.

Further clarification: we're aiming for elseworld creatures to be primarily other CS, or people's own personal species. It's a "celebrate the creativity of original species" sort of idea and an opportunity to play with your adopts/OCs in new settings. An ordinary animal from earth would not fall into what we're looking for as an "elseworld" creature. Putting aside that there are a number of native animal species on Eyre that are similar to standard Earth animals, it just runs a little contrary to what we're hoping to encourage with the idea.

If you don't own a CS (either your own or from a different creator) we added the option of using a human character. Humans are not considered native to Eyre, but pop in through portals frequently enough that they've established a sizable resident population.

If your elseworlder is from another CS, please link to the perspective masterlist (or equivalent) if and when possible.

There are many things well known about Zevija, but to elseworlders or perhaps those who have never visited, some things may not be so obvious. For instance, someone used to the crystal pure waters of Faerindell might not know the local sulfur pools are not for swimming, let alone drinking. Help out the Zevija locals fence off dangerous pools or put up signs to keep visitors safe from sinkholes, collapsed mines, or the often hard to see cracks and fissures in the ground that lead to steep falls into hidden caverns.

Some hail Strynhalde as a winter wonderland, while others consider it more of a winter wasteland... Your elnin understands the trepidation of those that might not be used to the cold reaches, but they think they can help shed some light on why some people love the snowy region. How do they show the beauty of Strynhalde to an outsider? Do they share the cozy secrets of soft blankets and an excuse to sit close and snuggle by the fire? Oh and don't forget those amazing heated beverages that feel like pure heaven on the way down during the cold cold nights! Do they show them the frozen sculptures that are sometimes creatively hidden against buildings in the more the artistically inclined towns? Or better yet, make one themselves? Depict your elnin showing another elnin their favorite part of visiting the land of snow and ice.

Your elnin setting up their own little camp in the wilds or helping build or maintain a Traveler's Haven.

Traveler's Havens are basically a small cave or simple structure that acts as a waypoint and safe shelter for travelers. This quest could involve repainting or rehanging wards that keep away troublesome fey creatures, leaving traveling supplies or care packages tucked safely away for the next wanderer, or even just chopping trees to replenish an empty wood bin. It is ingrained in elnin nature to be protective and supportive of their fellow travelers, and the havens they leave dotting the land are almost sacred to them.

There're no shortage of messages and packages needing ferrying between the various regions of Eyre! How does your elnin help the cause? Do they volunteer to carry the heaviest package to parts unknown? Maybe they claim to be the fastest courier ever! How does the journey go? Do they make it to the destination with the letter or package unscathed or do they topple and tumble over the tiniest rocks in their path? Depict your elnin being a first-class porter.
