As the students assembled in the classroom, they'd see a table at the front was piled high with what looked like different camping supplies, as well as a backpack for each student.

"Sometimes," he began, once everyone had settled in. "We may not neccessarily know we are on a quest until after it's already begun. Other times, we are lucky enough to have time to prepare for a quest ahead of time. Today, we're going to do the latter. Before you, you see a number of supplies. Your pack can only hold a certain amount. You must choose which of these items you think will be the most useful, and pack accordingly."

"What did you include in your supplies, and what did you leave out?" Thor asked. "Was there anything you would have included that was not available?"

Talk to Thor!

If you don't have time to ping in to the activity thread today, that's totally fine, but since the contents of their packs could theoretically influence how they do in practical exercises, I'd love if you could make up a list at some point :)
