I’ve been hyperfixating on my Dimensional Drifters AU for a bit now, thinking about how exactly Campsite Starlight would be structured. Like, if there are crops then who tends to them? Who oversees construction and expansion? Who cooks?
Well after spending a night daydreaming about it, I’ve come up with a list of each of the Drifters’ specialties at the campsite! These aren’t the only things that they do, somebody who works on farming can freely help work on construction. These are just the things each person specializes and excels at.
(Oh and of course, everyone also has equal chance to go on adventures and the like)
Farmers/Cooks - Those who focus on basic needs first. In charge of tending to the crops, managing food supply and ensuring people have food on their plates (And also eating healthy, not just snacking 24/7)
Elora - As a satyr who has a natural affinity to nature, she has knowledge of the proper conditions different plants need to thrive, being the groups flora specialist/botanist to help the crops grow healthy.
Moominmama - A mother to all, cooking the meals everyone needs to eat. Having spent plenty of years managing their farm back home, she is very knowledgeable in tending to crops and the proper way to structure the different plots.
Likulau - While he doesn’t know as much as Elora and Moominmama, he still assists the two as the muscle, tilling and plucking the different crops. He also occasionally uses his guardian spirit powers and imbue plants with chi to help the crops grow healthier and faster.
Cartographers/Loggers - Those who value knowledge above else. Responsible for mapping out the different worlds they go to and taking notes of what that world contains, including its culture, flora/fauna and residents.
Moominpapa - Already a natural born storyteller, Moominpapa writes down and logs the different places and adventures that the group went on when exploring different worlds (although they do have to be edited down for exaggerated details here and there).
Hat Kid - Interdimensional travel isn’t so different from space travel! She’s in charge of mapping out wherever they go, along with keeping a chart of the different worlds and their relative locations/links to one another.
Bow Kid - Already a natural born animal lover and master scrapbooker, Bow Kid keeps a record of the different plants and animals that they find. Although her and Hat Kid’s work can come off as... childish, they still get the job done!
Scouts/Supply Runners - Those quick on their feet with a good sense of direction. These people peek into unfamiliar territory to see what they find, along with running back to old worlds for any supplies they need.
Morgana - With his history in phantom thievery and ability to transform into a housecat when needed, Morgana is a pro at gathering intel without being noticed. His wide range of tools also comes in handy for any sticky situations they may find themselves in.
Shu Chi - A natural born athlete and expert in espionage, Shu Chi can get stuff done quick and efficiently. Whether it’s scouting out information or collecting supplies, his yaoguai powers truly shine here.
Spyro - The secret weapon, tagging along both to help with materials and act as defence in case trouble arises. Although the Drifters try to avoid conflict, nobody can argue against the strength of a dragon.
Moomintroll - Back home he learned and mapped out every nook and cranny of the Valley, so he’s a natural when it comes to discovering new places! When it comes to direction and learning the path forward, this Moomin is your guide!
Construction/Development - Those who help the group have roofs over their heads. These people focus on the overall structure of Campsite Starlight, planning what to build and where to build it, along with making sure everyone is comfortable.
Lindar - As an Artisan and mechanic, he has a wide array of knowledge in design and tools. Whenever development work needs to be done, he’s the one that makes the blueprints and the game plan with how to proceed.
Bubba - The main muscle! Helps construct and build different facilities and structures for the group, combined with directing those who wish to help out in that department with proper safety.
DJ Grooves - What’s the point of living somewhere if it doesn’t have style?! Works to make sure people are comfortable, sprucing up the campsite and help people feel at home, including designing and maintaining their condos.
Strategists/Planners - Those who make the tough calls. These people assess Campsite Starlight as a whole to determine what needs to be worked on, along with courses of action regarding matters both inside and out.
Twi - Maps out where the group should explore next and focuses on individual problems within the group. Makes plans focusing on the group’s well being first and evaluating possible ways to go forward without resorting to conflict.
Empress - She’s ran a yakuza before, this couldn’t be easier! Looks at situations from a gain/loss perspective, often giving harsh but necessary advice in order to make sure the group doesn’t go under.
Lin Hu - Assesses supplies and stability of the campsite, ensuring that the group doesn’t waste all of their materials and rations when needed. Restraint is necessary when trying to support a civilization, no matter how big or small it may be.
Mustache Girl - The expansion and battle strategist. After so much of her life devoted to sabotage, she’s excellent at forming plans of attack. Although due to the drifters having a “no violence unless needed” policy, she sticks to expanding their home base, mapping out where they could get materials and areas of interest.
If any future F/O’s join the team, they’ll be added to the proper team!
