Legwork is an ingame mechanic that may used to:
 
 
[[Category:PRPs]]
 
# Gather information
 
# Let staff know what you’ll be doing in response to a situation and/or plot
 
# Alert staff that you and a group of others have come up with a plan to deal with some problem and wish to schedule a scene (DMs are not required to give scenes, though they may arrange one; in addition, some legworks may be resolved within the queue, not dissimilar to a PbP; this usually depends on the amount of time the DM has, as well as the details of the plot)
 
 
 
For example:

Grubbar overheard some of the Dranei threatening to start a riot at the Dragon's Den. Not wanting to see violence break out (that he didn't start), Grubbar would like to inform the owners ahead of time. After, he'd like to confer with other local woodsguides and see if any of them were hired lately, to show the Dranei local hunting spots, and so on.
 
 
He has Influence among the local druid's union, and would like to use this to contact local guides.

Anyone may use legwork. If you're a martial PC and would like some help because "I only have 2 skill points per level!", check out [[Legwork Workshop 1]]. The second half covers that expressly. The basic gist of it though, is that no one should feel left out, or unable to investigate a plot point for further information.
 
 
 
 
==What do I Include?==
 
# What are you wanting to accomplish? This helps staff out quite a bit, so open with this.
 
# How is the PC trying to accomplish these goals? For example:
 
:: Example: Going to a tavern to encourage anti-Dranei sentiment
 
:: Example: Speaking with your contacts about the things they know about (see the influence and organization [[RPPs|RPP]] spends!)
 
:: Example: Speaking with the tavern owner whose house was recently burned down.
 
 
...and so on. Any character may do any of these things.
