Get a Message to the Dog Keeper

It is entirely possible to send messages to the Dog Keeper! While the Dog Keeper seems capable of sending text messages to characters, it does not seem like characters can find anywhere to contact the Dog Keeper directly through the phones. How strange! Oh well. Guess you'll just have to send the Dog Keeper a letter the old fashioned way!

Characters will have to write up a letter and put it in an envelope with "TO THE DOG KEEPER" written where a typical address would be printed. It doesn't seem like a return address is required! Characters will then leave their letters in their mail boxes (apartments and dorms have mailboxes in the lobbies that match to room numbers). They may also send the Dog Keeper items of any shape or size. To do this, if it doesn't fit in the mail box, simply set it by the mailbox. Seems like the Delivery Dogs know what to do! No item is too big or small- and the greatest part?

It doesn't look like there's any charge on postal!

To contact the Dog Keeper leave a comment below and the Dog Keeper will respond eventually. Maybe.

The Dog Keeper sends back letters- but they're all typed up. And of course- don't always expect helpful answers. Or any answers at all.

Get a Message to Someone Else!

While you wouldn't technically use this page to send a character letters/packages, you can assume that characters would be able to use the Delivery Dogs for similar functions with each other as well as the Dog Keeper.

Meaning if your characters makes up a package/letter that they want to send to another character, you would execute this by having the character write up an address like they would in the real world on the package or letter and then put it in their mail box with the flag up (apartments and dorms have mailboxes in the lobbies that match to room numbers). For objects bigger than the mailbox, they only have to set it down near the mail box and flip up the flag (if there is a flag to be flipped)! All deliveries are made within a day.

To execute this ICly, you would just proceed with usual inbox interactions as always.

This is just an assumed background action among characters. You do not need to make requests/make it known on this page that you are using the delivery dogs for this purpose.

Get a Message to Another NPC!

Currently it is not possible to send letters/items to other NPCs other than the Dog Keeper. This may change in the future.

If a character attempts to do so, they will find whatever item or letter they have sent in the mail box the following day....

....Only it'll look strangely as if it's aged several hundred years in one sitting.

How odd.

(Sodder does not respond to this message right away, but on the Doctor and Rose's wedding day, they will find that there is indeed an additional guest with a simple gift.

A solid white deer with an antler full of white roses will approach the Doctor and Rose at some point and present them with a lovely wreath made out of red and white roses. Perfect snowflakes dot the wreath. The wreath and snowflakes are all real, and both have been enchanted to stay alive for as long as Rose and the Doctor are together.

There is a simple note attached to the wreath:

Congratulations!!! I've always wanted to go to a wedding.

I'll have to settle for sending a gift. I'm sorry it's not much
Keep each other forever if you can manage it
The universe is a much better place when you share it with someone
Being alone is agony.

You are welcome, Doctor. I hope it serves you well.

Have a beautiful wedding. I am sorry if my deer friend eats any of your food.

-Sodder

PS. Marry Christmas!! (I hope you see what I did there)

At the bottom of the card is a children's doodle of two deer seeming to get married, a little heart scribbled over them.)
