// This thread will be used to organize player efforts in the coordination of the defense of River's End. This is an IC thread - please keep posts in character.
In lieu of seeking formal military aid, the New Arcane Liberation Front declares that it will stand by its promise to defend River's End. Coordinating with the Church of Mystra and the town council, Sierra the Red and her fellow Liberators issue a call for assistance from heroes and adventurers who represent only their own interests and not those of any regional polities.

CULT OF CYRIC
Currently comprised of the Swords of Cyric and monstrous clans converted to Cyric's faith by Divine Conversion:
Archon Yuri Lichelina would provide Rivers End with supply of Alchemists Fire, Acid Flasks and tanglefoot bags.
Alongside that, Yuri would help coordinate those he spoke to who wishes to aid in Plant Growth to make the area outside the town as inhospitable to an invading army as possible with vines and thorns. Possibly even hiding pits made with Mold Earth.
Yuri would also attempt to acquire caltrops for the war effort.
((I told people who will do plant growth to post here))

Sordoc D'gaffer can be seen co-ordinating with the defenders with to set up many sections of the approaches with thorns and vines with multiple castings of Plant Growth, cultivating the vines and thorns to slow any attackers as directed by the defenders. Often grumbling about the amount of work to re cultivate the land after such growth. He will also try to supply the town with some additional healing herbs gathered from the surrounding forests. He is also likely to be seen turning into a gargoyle to assist with the lifting and digging of trenches, and to weather the occasional stray shot from defenders.
I cannot be lost, because I am here, though I may be geogrpahically misplaced.
Nicho and Rachel will help with supplying town with various healing herbs and herbal remedies, most notably barks and healing-magic infused ointments. Other than that, rangers would provide several bunches of enchanted arrows to local archers
(exact number of healing supplies will be sent to Mimic once we consider that we crafted enough)
GMT+3 player with random time of appearing
Nicho Allenner - ranger of the Coast, worst needle of Forest Queen
Landar Davidson - Anduran from Waterdeep "In igne belli, Adeptus Medici"
Naer'eanque would not know, what task will also comming up after the future meetings. But her first attempts would be the following:
Anyway, as first of her deeds, she would join the efforts of manipulating the plants growth.
Like other brothers and sisters of nature, she would put her prayer and blessings into the effort to make the sorrounding land for the enemy much more difficult to pass.
In her free time, between these attempts of plants growth, she wandered through the streets. On her shoulder was sitting a squirrel, looking around with wide eyes...sometimes hiddnig the little head in the messy hair of the elven druidess, when the settlement was becoming too frightend for the animal. At some spots she was sitting down and inhale the atmosphere for getting used to that place. After the little fellow was also calming down she gave the small animal with finger gesture commands. The red-fured fellow followed the sign with jumps, dashes or postures. Also jumps through wooden rings were part of that kind of "training". Of course the half-tamed squirrel was squecking from time to time, as if would protest. But then a provided hazelnut eased the little revolution out.
If someone would be interested she hold a lecture about squirrels and maybe also about their favourite foods and how trees are growing.
Sometimes, casualy some colourfull petals were fallen, out of pouches on her hips. Completly out of coincedence...
Maybe, also the one or other flower in a garden would bloom, after she had whispered some soft words.
