A day in the life of an overworked cohort

4:00am-4:30am - Tabitha gets up at this ungodly hour. She starts her day with a shot of magic in the form of a lesser restoration, and washes it down with some sort of food, as long as it isn't jerky. She polishes and dons her armour while listening to a report from whichever of Mortimer’s Maxim drew the short straw that morning.

4:30am-5:00am - She stands on a wagon in front of what will be the gates to Castle Grey and leads the morning prayers to Balthazar. This is followed by a lecture, usually related to the purpose of their days work and the importance of the Castle to the region. Attendance is apparently voluntary

5:00am-6:00am - As the sky starts to lighten, she gathers and organises her labourers. She gives a brief to the Construction Team Leaders about their goals for the day and says some words she intends to be inspiring.

6:00am-12:00pm - She spends this time making the rounds of the construction site. She gives advice and instructions to her labourers as needed, and administers aid when accidents happen. The 11th Hellhound Brigade tag along, sniffing and peeing on most things. Occasionally, they are given leave to terrorise people she didn't think came to the morning prayer.

12:00pm-1:00pm - Lunch break! Usually jerky because its fast and easy. She spends this time in recreation with the Hellhounds, teaching them skills and teamwork, while making sure they're tuckered out enough they'll bed down for the afternoon.

1:00pm-4:00pm - She supervises the last of the days work, not unlike earlier

4:00pm-5:00pm - She eats some dinner while debriefing her Construction Team Leaders. She receives another report from Mortimer’s Maxim around this time.

5:00pm-6:00pm - She gets on her wagon again and leads the evening prayer. This is followed by another lecture. It is similar overall to the morning one, except longer, and it is instead usually on the virtues of discipline and structure. Again, attendance is apparently voluntary.

6:00pm-7:00pm - She takes a walk around Greyton, making sure that things are well and good. People are welcome to bring concerns to her during this time, but few people dare

7:00pm-8:00pm - She spends some time in her room, writing out the days activities in a log book. She updates the building plan with any modifications that need to be made. She handles the Castles finances during this time as well.

8:00pm-9:00pm - This hour is dedicated to the study of her craft. She practices spells, reads up on topics relevant to her interests and does all the sorts of things one would expect from someone with class levels.

9:00pm-11:00pm - She trains with whichever of the members of Mortimer’s Maxim aren't on patrol. She teaches them tactics and yells at them while they struggle to fall into formation fast enough for her liking. She will often involve her horse Misty, giving her some exercise.

11:00pm-12:00am - She spends her last hour before bed working on Mortimer’s other pet projects. At the moment she's trying to engineer a way to either retrofit a ship with spikes, or boobytrap it somehow, for hunting Kraken.

12:00am-4:00am - Sleep


Every 7th day Tabitha takes it easy. She forgoes the evening training onwards, gets a full nights sleep and regains spell slots
