Hello and welcome to ‘Ye Olde Bounty Board’
This is the post where all public bounties are posted for public consumption.
Now, we here aren’t in the business of promoting violence, but hey, it happens. As part of the Influence and Infamy release, characters can unlock benefits by going out of their way to be ‘Notorious’ or even ‘Hated’ by the bigger factions. One of the easiest ways to pull that off is through public crimes, and those ‘bounties’ will go here.
If you’re trying to become Notorious/Hated (because you want to ‘farm’ Influence with other factions, want the benefits unlocked by these statuses, or are just a monster), it is the expectation/hope that you’ll ‘self-report’ your bounties here. After all, if you don’t report them here, they didn’t ‘officially’ happen. Staff might add bounties here if they stumble across or get wind of someone being super volatile, but our hope is that most will be self-reported, especially since there are benefits to be had. Players, through unlocking Influence-related rewards, can put out official bounties on their actual IC foes (and, naturally, there are means around these as well).
Now, when you commit a crime and give yourself a bounty, you must be aware that you consent to being tracked down and engaged in a Challenge, likely a fight but who knows, maybe you can gamble or race tractors (work it out). If you want to claim someone’s bounty, you should message them to coordinate this with them, so you’re not just crashing through their wall like some salt-laced Kool-Aid Man.
Lastly, as per the Influence Rules, Bounties are calculated based on a character’s level. For every level a character is, their bounty will be increased by 500 Coin. All bounties set by NPC factions will give the same Coin whether you kill or capture the target. Players who set bounties on other players are free to throw in extra Coin or Trinkets that they own as rewards.
Important: Staff reserve the right to rescind 'player on player' bounties if it seems like the bounty may be more rooted in meta gaming or OOC ‘salt’ than anything that makes narrative/in-character sense.
Staff note: Remember that each character will receive one (1) post that will list all their bounties. Make sure to date and order bounties for characters who are particularly infamous.
(if you have questions, please reach out to staff and do not post anything here other than official bounties -- Thank you)
