This RP is part of the Isekai Hell setting. Check the links above to learn more about it.
This RP takes place a few weeks after the events of Nice To Meat You.
What to expect out of character:
Daily posting pace where possible, 2 rounds a week (Wednesdays and weekends) if not. Likely meeting somewhere in the middle. Focus will be on creative usage of the set-up narration and interaction with NPC's.
What to expect in character:
The pay-off for Todo Sawl's efforts in The Keg has reached an all-time high. So much so, in fact, that folk from around the continent have been starting to grow interested in learning what this odd Beastkin chef is up too. As a result, a few of them have to come request training from him. It'll be up to Todo to see whom he keeps around and teaches his craft, whom he dismisses early on, whom he allows to compete to the end and whom he might hire permanently. In fact, he might even take the last step in his journey and decide on settling down as the Keg's permanent master-chef.
Barony 1x1's
This RP is a third trial run for an idea I've had for a while, an easy set-up for 1x1 RP's in Caelia barony. More lore on it can be found in this lore thread where new lore will be added.
Mentions: Todo Shawl Orikanyo
It was busy in the Keg, but not due to customers. In fact, the Keg was closed for the day. Right now, what the Keg was filled with wasn't customers, but fellow chefs. All folk interested in learning some tricks from Todo, having travelled here for that sole purpose. However, it was rather clear he couldn't teach them all, so he'd need to figure out whom to keep around and whom to politely ask to return to their homes.
“We've.. really gotten ourselves some unique guests.” She whispered to Todo, a little overwhelmed by the diversity of the group that'd shown up for this.
“I think that one isn't even alive... are we sure he's not a monster?” She whispered back, pointing at a mummified chef whom merely waved back at them with a smile.
Yes, these were some peculiar candidates indeed.
Most notable, due to size, was a large construct-like thing. He/she/it was just standing by, patiently awaiting... something.
Next of note was the mummy pointed out by Amika. A very peculiar being, but a friendly looking one at least. He/she just smelled a little... foul.
Two others that stood out seemed to be of Fae origin, they were looking around and checking things out with certain eagerness to them.
Sending some shivers down the spines of those less familiar to Crustatonian Beastkin, the shark-like arrival had his/her teeth on full display as he/she looked around trying to get their bearings here like a fish out of water.
A more fluffy beastkin lady was keeping to the sides, awaiting her 'turn' a bit away from the reset of the crowd.
Finally, easily missed due to height constraints, a halfling woman had gathered, bringing her own soup spoon for the occasion.
It would be fully up to Todo how to handle all these arrivals. Have introductions, immediately test them on their competences, create some sort of competition, set-up trials for them, sent some of them away before even learning their names, asking them for their own input... It was all up to him on how to handle this. The only rule on his end, was that he was to filter out at least some of them to figure out whom to work with and whom to share some of his techniques and recipes with at the end of the day. After all, they were all here to learn from him for one reason or another.

Barony 1x1's
This RP is a third trial run for an idea I've had for a while, an easy set-up for 1x1 RP's in Caelia barony. More lore on it can be found in this lore thread where new lore will be added.
Barony NPC 1x1 RP's
There are a lot of people (NPC's) in the barony by now. That is not a coincidence. I've been trying to establish a lot of NPC's, not just to flesh out the area and add some flavour, but also to offer the following option: 1x1 RP's with the barony NPC's.
These are intended to be:
1 – Relative short. (Up to two months at most, more likely between 2 weeks and a month).
2 – Easy to jump into. Find an NPC you want to interact with or a goal to achieve that could fit into the Caelia Barony and you'll be hooked up.
3 – Light-hearted. They won't have too much deep lore/plot. Just a PC, an NPC and a common goal to achieve (examples; defeat wolf, craft sword, chat about the weather, learn how to poor tea).
What you stand to gain:
1 – An RP tailored to your liking with flexible pacing (daily at its fastest so long as both sides are able to keep it up, with potential moments of back-to-back posting, weekly at its slowest).
2 – A direct way to achieve a specific goal, such as: Forge a sword. Gain F-rank Adventurer's Guild connection. Learn Etiquette. Spent some time gossiping.
3 – A narrator willing to help you come up with ideas. I like brainstorming if you want to try out something, but don't have something specific yet.
What I stand to gain:
1 – More RP options outside of my own characters.
2 – Fleshing out the barony and its NPC's even more.
3 – Hopefully giving people some short, yet fun RP's.
4 – A few extra points from running a lot of RP's, which I'll likely reinvest in barony assets/companions through my character (baroness) Regula Caelia.
Limits:
1 - There's only so much I can do alone. If too many people show interest, I'll have to create a waiting list or find others to join in on this idea (preferably with NPC's of their own, to ensure NPC's stay somewhat consistent in their behaviour).
2 – Grand goals, deep lore, posting paces longer than weekly or desires for very long-lasting RP's likely won't fit this format.
3 – I'm planning to offer some level quality, but this is also very much a quantity thing. If I somehow offer a life-changing RP that'd be great, but that'd not be the goal with these. The goal is some good and simple fun.
TRIAL RUN
As a trial run, I'm hoping to provide a fun RP, but there may be some hiccups while I'm trying to sort things out both IC and OOC. I'll be checking how much time it takes me to keep posting to see if I can start doing these on a consistent basis first and for most, as well as checking how well and easily ideas come forth to see if I can run these en masse, and finally how well the NPC's integrate to see how much of a solid ground for new stuff they can be. Feedback is appreciated both during and after the RP.
