Darts shoot into the plank.

To clarify, the holes are in a pattern, not just random. Every three feet or so, there is a row of four holes in the wall, that goes up and down. The side of the wall that the holes are on alternates, and there is four sets of them in the hallway.

Zhanat just keeps waving the plank for a long while.

Darts continue to shoot for a few minutes, then stop. The ground has been peppered with darts, but no more are shot from the holes. That is only the first of three sets of darts, however...

Zhanat brings the plank back to themselves.

How tall is the room? Do the holes go all the way to the ceiling?

the room is about ten feet tall, and the holes go up to around your height. @Ookla thePresentParticiple

Zhanat pulls out large bones and a bloodseal from her bag and stamps the bones, causing them to become a five-and-a-half-foot tall squirrel. She climbs on the back until she’s above the darts, and starts moving.

"I'll take the strength test."

You next.  @Ookla thePresentParticiple, you pass.

Who is your character? Sorry, I've got a lot to keep track of.

Also, maybe I'm going to make it that each person only has to pass one test so that this can move a bit faster.

(Characte is PoMee the kandra, defining trait is that she uses guns, and has the blessing of potency-- sort of like pewter).

So basically there is three scales. one has two heavy weights, too heavy to carry, one has four and four small weights, and another has seven and eight small weights. The smalls are still very heavy, but liftable.

"Balance all three scales."

So the only unbalanced one is the one with 7 and 8? (just clarifying)

Yeah sorry, I was inactive for a few weeks, and currently the plot is waiting for me to solve this puzzle. I'm am still trying to solve it . . . but I have a lot of stuff to do today. I'll try and figure it out soon though!

 

[The Stormfather He/Him]

(I can tell you the solution so we can skip all the tests. I didn't realize they would take this long and we could get this going. I have a couple good ideas for cases that'll happen.)

Also, @Brik_head you can join.

I didn't expect it to take me this long, I'm super sorry about that . . . . School is pretty much taking up all of my brain power. I'd be happy to just move on if you like.

 

[..... he/him]

Here's my theory for the solution:

Spoiler

You just take away one of the small ones from the seven and eight little weights scale and then it's balanced I looked at the post for and it doesn't say that you can't do that as a solution I'm pretty sure.

I was under the impression you had to put all the weights down somewhere, but if not that'd work . . .

he did not say any thing either way so I assumed that that would work

Yeah, the solution was just taking off all the weights.

On to the first case!

I'm goign to assign all of the players to the same spot just to make this easier for me. 

The captain you have been assigned to introduces himself as Synwyl. She is a scadrian terriswoman, who clearly has metalminds but didn't say anythign about them. She gives this spiel to all of the people independently, but the talks are all about the same. This is one of them,

"So, time for you're first case. This one.... Well, I'll just say that we might not be starting you off too easy. No cases for us are easy. We don't actually get many cases, so you'll probably be able to use a lot of resources and connections to figure out who's been doing this. 

(Context : Interplanetary trade happens. Roshar sends crystals and gems to scadrial, who sends aluminum back, horneaters claim they have a lightweaver who is soulcasting. There. Boom. Context!)

"six days ago, one of the shipments of aluminum and cadmium from scadrial was robbed. It was still inside Shadesmar, which baffles me. There were three guards on the ship, a human and two reachers. They claim that they saw a person... swimming through the ocean. The person popped out, snapped the giant chains holding one of the crates in place, lifted the big crate (Weighed about 1000 pounds) and leapt into the ocean. Noone saw anything of them after. They moved so quickly, and the guards were too shocked to do anything. 

We suspected that they might be a full feruchemist, using a combination of tricks to swim through the ocean. That might explain the fast movement and the super-strength, but they would have had no way to gain momentum in the ocean. We thought about that for a while before realizing it was too far-fetched. Maybe they were a steelrunner, but they clearly had some other powers. We suspect they are scadrian, for obvious reasons.

We're bringing in the three guards to see what it was they saw, but the reachers can't leave shadesmar. You all need to travel to the horneater peaks. be swift, and do not let anyone see you use an invested art. 

You are dismissed."

Ah! I guess I was thinking about it way to hard

PoMee listens to the instructions carefully, she's very excited for their first mission.

[The Stormfather He/Him]

So, basically, all of you have time for interaction amongst each other for the next i'll say two days and then the journey to the perpendicularity will start. good?

[Brik_head]

William arrived late, but got there just in time to here Synwyl give the whole spiel. William stood in the back examining each of the other recruits one by one.
