CrypticSpren he/him Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 Just watched the Secret Project #1 stream and learned about the ongoing Chicken Scouts joke, and though it would be interesting to compile a list of Chicken Scout merit badges. From the original Way of Kings Leatherbound Kickstarter we have Shardblade Safety Greatshell Wrangling And from the stream we have Spore Collecting Cake Eating Are there any others confirmed?
CrypticSpren he/him Posted March 24, 2022 Author Posted March 24, 2022 I assume this means that Chicken Scouts is gender inclusive? That's good to hear!
Quantus he/him Posted March 24, 2022 Posted March 24, 2022 Much like the modern BSA, I suspect it varies by local chapter. Some maybe more integrated than others, some may still maintain the gender segregation. Vorin genders can barely eat at the same table, so Id imagine the local leaders would make more cultural concessions until the biases weaken. Also, the BSA has more and more craft and/or hobby pursuit badges than it used to, so I propose a Tailoring or perhaps "Fashion Studies" badge. You know, for Adolin. 1
CrypticSpren he/him Posted March 28, 2022 Author Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) Definitely a fan of the fashion studies; could definitely see Adolin being a councilor for that. Wonder what you'd do for Light Eating if you're not a radiant, but funny . As for a couple more pitches: Fabrial/Fabrial Science: The Rosharan equivalent of Invention/Inventing, the former being the OG version that you needed a patent to earn Highstorm Survival: Consists of learning how to seek shelter during a highstorm, complete with the obnoxious first aid requirement in every badge ever. Notable lack of anything numerology, writing, or anything of relation to being a stormwarden. Sailing: Similar to the real BSA sailing, but with the option to use a madra-carried boat for those not so lucky to be in the physical realm Edited March 28, 2022 by CrypticSpren 1

CrypticSpren he/him Posted March 29, 2022 Author Posted March 29, 2022 Oh no Dor Survival sounds basically impossible If Shadsmar Orienteering requires 3 orienteering courses like regular orienteering then that also sounds very hard (I failed orienteering merit badge) Wonder if metallurgy requires you to make spikes... seems morally questionable for the upright Chicken Scouts Nice list
