personal goals
● ● ● PERSONAL GOALS
On each planet, in addition to the characters all having their mission to complete, each character is also given a PERSONAL GOAL to fulfill. If they succeed in fulfilling it during the mission, the orb they recover will eventually lend its power to undoing their regret. If they don’t succeed, the orb they recover during that mission will not lend them its power.
Here’s a quick cheat sheet for this:
• If the orb is not recovered, its power will help none of the characters.
• If the orb is recovered, it will help only the characters who have completed their personal goals.
• If Character A completes their goal, the orb will eventually lend them its power.
• If Character B fails to complete their goal, the orb will not lend them its power.
Remember that personal goals are not technically mandatory. It is always up to the character to decide if the goal is something they can or want to fulfill. Similarly, players are not obligated to thread their personal goals out in order to "complete" it. This is an in-game mechanic meant to offer character development and an opportunity for CR; it's not meant to be a burden or added workload! Goals themselves are revealed to characters individually, but unless otherwise specified they are free to share them with their fellow teammates.
Like the AC page, reply to this post with your player handle in the subject line, then reply to that with a thread for every character you play. Every time that character completes a goal, use the form below to get it tracked.
COMPLETED GOAL FORM:
tomato
andromache | the old guard

MISSION: the sleeper
GOAL: RANDOM • Take something from this world with you before you leave.

bad company

MISSION: bad company
GOAL: Allow a teammate to get injured instead of you.
SUMMARY: in the middle of a bandit attack on the town, daisy and andy were teaming up to fight them off. with a single moment's hesitation, one of the bandit's shot daisy - something andy believes she could have stopped if she'd piped up. instead, she thought of quỳnh and allowed daisy to get hurt instead of drawing the gunfire to herself.
upstairs, downstairs | FAILED
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: upstairs, downstairs
GOAL: Do not harm another person throughout the entire mission.
SUMMARY: andy tried very hard and avoided hurting anyone for most of the mission, but ultimately she failed it upon dismembering an armed guard to save daisy from being shot. chop chop, off with his arm.

CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: the fox and the hare
GOAL: Keep a big secret from someone you care about.
SUMMARY: in a talk about her healing/immortality with itachi and what it was like without their powers, given their last powerless mission aboard the alien train and her near death kaiju experience, andy avoided mentioning that it would in fact one day leave her for good when the opportunity to be honest appeared, preferring to let him (and most people) think it's simply permanent.

CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: wish full
GOAL: Charm a local into giving you something of theirs.
SUMMARY: andy spent a lot of time flirting with the local merpeople population to avoid a mental breakdown, and in one such case, she charmed her way into getting a necklace from a mermaid. she kept it! it was very pretty.
the voice in the dark
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: the voice in the dark
GOAL: Tell a teammate a trait you most admire about yourself.
SUMMARY: natasha and andy were chatting about missions and how andy briefly fought against the entity calling himself the 'highest one.' it turned to talk of skills, and she told natasha she admired her own longstanding ability to learn new things as well as the continued curiosity to do so, that she was good at picking up new tricks and trades and weapons in her very long life. small things to like about yourself!
the darkest wild
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: the darkest wild
GOAL: Choose between injuring yourself or a fellow teammate.
SUMMARY: andy did choose to throw herself into the volcano so others wouldn't have to, knowing full well she would not come out of it unscathed. in the process she nearly got burnt alive, with half her skin melting off, but better her than someone like daisy.
the die is cast
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: the die is cast
GOAL: Do not consume drugs or alcohol throughout the mission.

the big one
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: the big one
GOAL: Help someone out of an embarrassing situation by being even more embarrassing.
SUMMARY: obi-wan, gifted the most delicious of spicy foods by some little mushrooms, ate it out of politeness. it was, however, too much for his palette, and his composure went out the window. he choked, got red faced, nearly had a panic attack. andy found this hilarious despite the mushroom worry (and a little laughter on their part too), but remembering her goal, shoved about ten of the same treat into her mouth to draw the attention instead. no panic attack on her part, but it did nearly choke her in turn, if only for the fact that the ten were shoved in at once. terrible manners! they fret over her instead, and even though she wasn't particularly embarrassed, she certainly saved his ass when the mushrooms assumed she was stressed.
a matter of import
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: a matter of import
GOAL: Speak your every thought for 24 hours.
SUMMARY: andy did indeed accomplish the goal, though she doesn't often lie about her opinions to begin with. she spent some of that time sleeping more than usual and hiking in the middle of nowhere, but she said everything aloud that popped into her head, even when no one was around.

gold sails, red skies
CHARACTER: andromache the scythian
MISSION: gold sails, red skies
GOAL: Incite a minor riot in a public setting.
SUMMARY: drunk pirates are incredibly easy to rile up. andy incited an angry bar fight against the price of alcohol. it did nothing for the cost, but the brawl was pretty funny to her, and only a few chairs were collateral damage.
