Greetings, everyone. I'm Jade Curtiss, Ranger, part of the Survey Corps. As I'm sure we've all heard, the Union is in need of an iron mine. That is why the Rangers are putting together an expedition to the Caverns in search of one, to be led by me.
[He's less than enthused at the prospect of leading so many people, but it doesn't show as he continues to elaborate on the details of the expedition, brisk and informative:]
Unfortunately, there's not much information about the Caverns, or the Pokemon in them. This is why we'll need people with the ability to locate iron deposits, people able to communicate with Pokemon, and people who are able to fight, although we'll do our utmost to avoid battles in the interest of saving time.
[Did he just sound faintly sarcastic then? Who knows.]
The expedition will likely last for two days, perhaps more. It'll take at least half a day to reach the Caverns, and possibly much longer before we locate a mine - if we can. Therefore, I'd suggest that everyone pack wisely. If you're feeling lost, the staff at the Outpost should be of assistance. Funding will be provided upon request.
If you're interested in participating, or would like to field any inquiries, please respond now. If all goes well, we'll be departing from the city gates tomorrow at six in the morning.
[ooc; Hello, everyone! This is the network post that will kickstart the expedition to the Caverns, which is a player plot that has now been mod-approved! A log post will go up tomorrow for the expedition itself.
Due to my wonky timezone I'd appreciate having someone to help with writing out NPC encounters/events in order to keep things moving! Please PM me if you're interested.]

Wood isn't the most stable of materials.
It works fine for decoys for wild pokemon, but not so much for real defensive purposes.
Of course melting down iron isn't easy, and most materials have gone into more practical things, but it would be a boon to the city's defense to have it as an option.

It sounds like you're quite familiar with the outside then. It'll be quite interesting to work with you again.
[If Flemming thinks he sounds mildly sarcastic, he isn't imagining it; Jade hasn't forgotten how difficult it is to work with Flemming. He can only hope he's mellowed out over the years.]

Certainly. It's been a long time.
