A Fair Trade

[Korvo]

• What is going to happen in your plot? Uhtred Wardruna contacts the Isonic Union, a small subsidiary of the much, much larger Commerce Guild. The Isonic Union engaged in mining, shipping, salvaging and trading, and operated off of Ison. Members of the Isonic Union have Deucalian heritages (this isn't a secret, but it isn't widely known), and while they still maintain them discretely, they are descendants of Deucalians that forsook their society when it fell into what was effectively endless civil war 300 years ago. Uhtred seeks out the allegiance of Gheleon Rhorlak, the current head the Isonic Union and, non-publicly, the head of the still-living Clan Rhorlak.
  
  Gheleon doesn't believe Uhtred can really put a warring society back together (and openly says so), but he offers him a partnership with a measure of financial backing if Uhtred performs a series of tasks for him. If successful, Gheleon still isn't really convinced that Uhtred can achieve his endgame goal, but Uhtred earns his trust via his integrity and ability to follow through on his word.
• What other players will be a part of this? Other Deucalian PCs
• Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place? Greater Javin (Ison, the Ison Debris Field, Hoth and Isis)
• Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
  
  Thread 1: Uhtred meets and negotiates with Gheleon, requesting his backing and support in exchange for his aid against pirate incursions and rescuing his workers from slavers. (Ask)
  
  Thread 2: Uhtred leads a dogfight against the Crimson Nebula pirates in the Ison Debris Field, with the intent of either killing or fending them off to keep them from seizing a shipment (Dice/DM)
  
  Thread 3: Uhtred helps to defend a mining/refinery outpost on Hoth, preventing its operations from halting (Dice/DM)
  
  Thread 4: Uhtred leads an incursion into the Isis outpost, which has been taken over by pirates who are holding the workers hostage. (Dice/DM)​
• What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"? Generate credits, fame, and NPC backing for Clan Wardruna, helping to lay the foundation for a PC Deucalian faction
• Do you need any involvement of canon NPCs or faction leaders to be DMed by a staff member? If so, please detail who/what and for what purpose. Probably just for Gheleon Rhorlak

Under the understanding that the "credits" that you gain here won't be getting you any advanced tech? I'm okay with approving this plot.

Just as an aside - as no one from the plot team had even read your submission before it was tagged as "Under Review" I can only conclude that you did it yourself when posting the thread. Please don't do this in the future, we use it to make sure that other members of the team know which plots are being looked at - if it's flagged as "Under Review" then only the team member who flagged it will look at it.

If you do it yourself? It can be missed because we all assume someone else has it :)

APPROVED

Yikes, I saw the tag and just assumed it was the default tag for plots. Thanks!

Doublepost! Who should I tag once the thread goes up for the DMing role? Or is this something I ought to request from a non-staff (head of a business is a bit of a grey area for me)

As they're not leaders of planet or faction I'm fine with anyone DMing but their DMing will be scrutinised during completion review
