Elsie Handover

(I'm taking some cues from our last NPC handover, here, so thanks Schnikeys for the idea!)

Wave, Blue here. As most everyone know, we sadly lost Meghan from the game recently due to IRL circumstances and since she was running Elsie, I offered to step up and take over. This is a little bit intimidating, even as someone who's already a mod, as I've never run a plot NPC before, and Elsie has a bunch of history, but I'm going to do my damnedest!

I will be starting fresh threads wise, but I still have a lot of reading to do. So it might be a minute before Elsie is fully present again, especially in a plot-serving capacity, but that's where you all come in because I would greatly benefit from a summary of key CR and links to important threads!

My general plan is to have her absence since September primarily explained by her retreating to her tree and being somehow kept separate from everyone during the Kadath event, and hopefully have her pop up in a limited capacity at Merrymeet. From there, I'll ease into things.

I do run a pretty full roster, as people probably know, so I don't plan to overwhelm myself, but I do want to have her available for CR development, plot notes and will obviously make special effort wherever the Fae come in.

TL;DR: Let me know below if your character had CR with Elsie and if you have them accessible, links to threads would be great! I will backread as much as I can over the next couple weeks on my own, either way.

Bastion is friends with Elsie! I believe they met through Nimona originally. Notably, I think it may have been the previous Merrymeet that Elsie enchanted their armour to grow flowers, and during the zombie event Elsie came to them for help with the whole Evil Book That Raises The Dead problem. They've taught her some technical-ish words because of how they can't code-switch to save their life and it's not uncommon for them to have to (non-judgmentally) explain the definition of whatever they just said.
