PLANS
I've basically just got "travel the Drabwurld, try to help people and maybe eventually work on Native relations" pinned down so far! Also bothering Mako and Korra over their Hermione-made compasses more than is even slightly necessary. In fact, watch out, all relevant compass CR. He's like a late-night tumblr text post in human form. Always open for shenanigans, CR-making/furthering, and any plotting people wanna throw Bolin's way!
SUMMARY OF KNOWN DETAILS
Definitely helping construct a manmade lake starting in May. Plus a trip to Redgate in the third week of July with Opal Beifong. He'll be meeting Wan while doing some Jabberwocked-area healing in late August, too!
TIMELINE OF EVENTS
| SPRING IN 2,701 (Mar, Apr, May) |
- MARCH - The new King of Birds, the Roc, brings late snowstorms across the drabwurld; shardbearers must combat its magic to un-freeze each other, natives, and whole areas.
- Bolin should either be back on his feet from his injury in February or pretty close to it by the halfway point of this month, so he'll be trying to do his part to help people out during this event! Lava is not great for unfreezing people, but maybe he can just hug them until they thaw I don't know
- APRIL- Shardbearers shall be struck at various moments by the sound of harp-playing which inspires REALLY HELLA INTENSE emotions! Shardbearers will discover that they can follow the sound only in their dreams to the dream-image of a harp which magically plays itself. Smashing the harp in their dreams will disable the spell for them.
- Bolin will be possibly literally too dumb to smash the harp. And he should be available for emotional hijinks! If anyone ever wanted to see him angry, this is potentially a great time.
- MAY - Golden swans will migrate to the mainland from the southern coast, devouring newly-planted crops and seeds; slaying them turns them into solid gold swan figurines.
- Bolin will not be (deliberately) slaying any golden swans because wow that's really not his style. But he will be trying to play defense for areas around his location, whether it works out for the better or mostly wrecks the ground anyway. He also possesses a suit of boon armor that allows him to expedite plant growth, so that might come in handy for repairing some swan damage!
- Construction begins on Annabeth's freshwater lake/Seelie-Unseelie message delivery service outpost! Bolin will be assisting with this project.
|
| SUMMER IN 2,701 (Jun, Jul, Aug) |
- JUNE - It becomes clear that the areas the Jabberwock spent too much time in will grow nothing and have become barren; includes areas around Caer Glaem, the Cothromach, the Station, other parts of the map. Shardbearers may attempt to heal these areas.
- Whether it's successful or not (and probably not, considering the lack of plants around in the first place), Bolin will be attempting to put his boon armor to good use again by trying to encourage plants to grow in any of the barren areas he's nearby. I have mod confirmation that this augmentation will be able to help heal Jabberwocked areas!
- Treun holds its famous summer tourney! The purse is 5,000 gold marks for each of these competitions: Magical Dueling, Mounted Joust, and the Melee! The competitions go over the day, featuring many famed individuals participating in secret, and the revels continue over nights.
- Bolin will definitely be in attendance of this tourney and happy to socialize, though I don't think he'll go in for competing in anything. Even if he ultimately does compete in the Melee or Mounted Joust competitions, I don't see him emerging as an ultimate victor. He's in this whole revelry for the fun and for the almost-like-sports-if-he-believes-they-are...
- JULY -Violent anti-shardbearer demonstration in Daonna results in the hanging of a dozen Seelie and Unseelie shardbearers in the city square.
- Bolin and Opal make a radical totally-not-awkward-for-anyone trip to Redgate during the third week of the month! It's his favorite place, even though shit's always really complicated with it.
- Followed by a potential trip to see Korra on the Western Road or to hang with Mako and Ri?
- ALSO DAONNA PLEASE STOP... probably going to be a great event springboard for Bolin getting more actively interested in Native relations.
- AUGUST - Forest golems around the drabwurld begin waking and rampaging! No one seems to know why...
- This week on "Bolin attempts to befriend, soothe, and/or earthbend rampaging golems... always up for some kind of plotting in regards to this. The last golem he met was so friendly, why. Please don't make him resort to force by lava. :c
- Laethann's Festival of Lights is the second week in August, a curious local celebration timed to the arrival of fireflies which will this year mark the induction of the new Oracle.
- This sounds like a heck of a thing to happen and if Shardbearers can attend, Bolin is there. If they can't, it's still a heck of a thing and I love it.
- Meeting Wan (LoK) while healing some more Jabberwocky areas late in the month! With their eyebrows combined, they could be a force to be reckoned with.

| FALL IN 2,701 (Sept, Oct, Nov) |
- SEPTEMBER - The magical power which allows shardbearers to understand Drabbish and each other goes haywire; affected characters will be heard speaking their native tongue! All their writing, however, will still be seen as Drabbish.
- BOLIN IS AVAILABLE FOR ALL LANGUAGE SHENANIGANS. He'll be speaking whatever the heck avatar-ese... is...
- The annual Treun wreath festival! Ends in fiery riots and the public calling for Fortuna to abdicate his position.
- OCTOBER - October 25-30th: SAMHAIN! Sun does not rise; characters can go wherever they please; Black Shuck makes another appearance; giant party on the Cathraon.
- Bolin's available for any and all Samhain revelry. Costume TBD. Lots of eating, dancing, and talking to strangers.
- NOVEMBER- Inmates from a magical island prison-colony of Laethann have escaped, and some manage to reach the mainland and begin causing havoc!
- Bolin will participate in attempting to round up and return some prisoners, always more alive than dead. He'll especially be up for defending nearby areas from any of them that are out to cause deliberate harm! Because he is Bolin, though, there's no guarantee that he won't potentially catch up with a criminal and ultimately let them go because sad story/super minor crime/he has a good feeling about them/they're really great liars. :I

| WINTER IN 2,701/2,702 (Dec, Jan, Feb) |
- DECEMBER - Yule celebration! Giant hunting party with both courts trying to catch the White Hart!
- UP FOR YULE SHENANIGANS, NO IDEA ABOUT ANY KIND OF GIFTING oh god... Bolin may or may not spend a couple of weeks as a big, undoubtedly floppy dog.
- JANUARY - Caer Scima is at last entirely rebuilt, and grander than ever!
- aww good for you, unseelies c: i have no idea what bolin is doing this month.
- FEBRUARY - Parrais holds its Ostara Feast! By the feast's end, several famous elven artisans and musicians are found with their throats slashed.
|
| SPRING IN 2,702 (Mar, Apr) |
- MARCH - The skeletons of unburied soldiers killed in battle begin to rise, devouring whatever living beasts or people they come upon until their skulls are struck off.
- HERE TO HELP FIGHT OFF THE UNDEAD AND PUT THEM BACK TO REST AS NEEDED? I don't know if he'd go for head-striking shots unless absolutely necessary, but Bolin can certainly make some earth-and-lavabending traps and pitfalls to help with the defense of areas nearby!
- APRIL - Great numbers of imps and fairies begin to go missing in both castles, to the point where many everyday tasks go unfinished!
- "man what happened to that one fairy that always stole pabu's treats when i came back to the castle i hope it's okay????" IDK this could be a thing to do things with or more of just a background event worth noting.

His voice trailed off and he looked to the side, clearly ashamed of the fact and in the next moment, went on to try and explain why. Because leaving it like that just sounded like he was oblivious.
"I mean, it wasn't that I didn't notice. Not really. I just wasn't around to notice it much. When I was last at the Station, it was the third month, March. And there was snow everywhere. And after that I went south and east and there was no rot there and then I was heading north along the Briagha... Mostly I just wasn't here to see it by the time the snow melted and the effects were more obvious."
