An Important Survey

[offortune]

FORM: Hand-written and posted on the bulletin board, AND helpfully read aloud over the sending crystals.
SENDER: Rafael & Scipio, your friendly neighborhood layabouts
RECIPIENT: Everyone, like it or not
WHAT: An important survey written (and read) by two men with too much time on their hands and too few gloves obviously pro bono on behalf of the Inquisition to collect details, public opinion, and information to further refine and direct the practices and causes of said Inquisition. Helpfully. Informatively. And so forth.
WHEN: Mid-Wintermarch
WHERE: Skyhold, wherever sending crystals are
NOTES: Feel free to respond in text or audio! Replies will come from both Raf and Skip. Threadjacking highly encouraged!!

1. What is the most useless animal?

   1. If you had to be transformed into an animal what would you choose?

   2. Why would you not choose the most useless animal so that people would leave you alone?
      

2. Why do people want to go stand in the snow instead of at least going to a nice warm place even if it is full of Wardens?

3. Choose a better nickname for Skyhold.

   1. Some suggestions include:

      1. Skycold

      2. Snowhold

      3. Frozehold

      4. Frostbit shithole

4. Choose nicknames for the advisors. So far our favorites include Noodlehair Ruthotford, Josefiiiiiine, and Leliana (Isn't it a pretty name? Why mess with perfection? [We hear she'll stab us in our sleep.]). We are sure that you can all do better than these.

5. Choose a mascot for Skyhold. If you want it to be the same as the answer to #1 we're not going to argue.

6. Pick a motto for the Inquisition.

   1. Some suggestions:

      1. “The Hairy Eye Sees All”

      2. “A Lifetime of Cold”

      3. “Doing Some Good (And We Have Proof)”

7. What is the best thing to eat where you are from? Provide samples if possible. (Samples can be directed to SCIPIO AND RAFAEL at A TAVERN.)

8. If you could do one and only one magical spell, what would it be? (Mages do not need to answer.) (But they can if they want.)

9. List 3 cold weather tips.

10. Have you heard of Paul di Simone yet?

    1. If not, why not?

    2. What sort of cold and joyless rock do you live under precisely?

    3. Are you running to the Herald's Rest yet to hear the singer there do his songs?

    4. If yes, which of his masterpieces is your favorite?

Yes, of course! I had to be looking at it, yes?

[rathercommon]

Well, yes, but...I mean - if it's long - That only matters if you're trying to go all the way through, doesn't it.

[bunko]

Not if I were to be truly convincing, no. And I was! Two days after, I was able to make my way back into the city, a free man once more.

[rathercommon]

Why did you have to pretend this, anyway?

[bunko]

It was a disguise!

[rathercommon]

And who were you disguising yourself from?

[bunko]

Oh, a terrible man. Il Venditore, they called him, in Antivan. The-- Sellers-Man, I think. A brute of a figure, with hands that were the size of hams but a smell about his person that was more of the fish. His trade, he plied down the coast, but he was in Antiva City some years back, and both Rafa and I were forced to don such disguises, until il Venditore sailed back to the hole that he had darkly crawled from!

And since he could not read a word, nor barely speak, I chose the library for my hiding place. Such success I found there.
