Seminar Series - Nathan Dukes

[alanwrotethis]

(OOC - Cross-posted from Facebook)

For those planning to attend the seminar series hosted by Nathan Dukes, it is currently pencilled in as the 2nd DT action.

All members of clan Malkavian resident to Bath have an open invite to the entire seminar series, at the kind negotiation of their primogen. Other kindred have been invited on a session-by-session basis.

If you're not sure if you have been invited, either PM me or message below and I'll confirm for you.

If you wish to be added to the event, please let me know, payment can be discussed on a case-by-case basis.

First seminar:
"Taxonomy of the Spirit - Soul, Psyche, Ghost, Totem, Fundament Loci, and Supernal"

(Yes, I may be creating a 6-session lesson-plan for a fictional seminar series. I may even have IC lectures in the works...

... who am I kidding, I have IC lectures in the works.)

NOTE: Attendees are invited to bring an item of personal or historical value, to be studied as part of a practical demonstration. The item in question may be 'interviewed' as part of the seminar.

((If we have been invited, does it require a DT action to attend, or will it be a forum based RP opportunity like Delaney's theatre extravaganza early in the year?))

(OOC - At the time it was arranged in-session, the plan seemed to be that it required a d/t action, unless I hear differently in the meantime)

Confirmation from refs - a d/t is required to attend a seminar in the series. Attending several may qualify you for the purchase of specific skills....

((Awww. :/ Never mind, then. Thanks. ))

Seminar on the Spirit part two - Spirits of the Dead.

Further to last session's seminar, Dukes will be presenting a talk on ghosts this d/t. There will be a group seance-based activity at the end of the talk, with an option for attendees to take part in private 'communications' directly afterward. This will occur in the 2nd downtime action, but may be rescheduled if there is a significant need for it.

Characters from clan Malkavian are given a group invite by the arrangement of their Primogen. Other kindred may also attend, with a possible arrangement of a trivial or minor boon as a guideline rate (depending on the level of 'attention' they require). Please PM me to arrange attendance, if you have specific questions to be asked as part of the d/t please message the refs as well as myself so they can stay updated. As noted previously, these talks may assist players in purchasing some obscure skills, and shenanigans may transpire

Cheers,
-Alan

IMPORTANT UPDATE - Attending the seminar this month will NOT cost a d/t action. Any players that wish to attend should still note their attendance in Additional Stoof, or packaged in alongside an appropriate downtime action. Assimilating the lectures into the acquisition of specific skills/lores may still require a d/t action in the future to demonstrate further research.

Please let me know if you wish to attend or take part in any additional activities relevant to it, as I will need to confirm attendees for admin IC purposes.

Cheers,
-Alan

NOTE - Now taking place in Action 1. This will not affect Additional Stoof, but should be noted for players attempting d/t 'shenanigans' at the same time

Hopefully all those who put "going to the seminar" into action 2 will still be allowed to go
