Hello lovely people.

As you have all likely noticed, this game is very slow with very few people. Due to this, there will no longer be monthly plot breakdowns. There will be a monthly plot in which something will happen or some clue to further unravel the story will appear. However, it will not come in the form of a plot with me.

This may change should the game pick up with more people.

Furthermore, activity. I am delighted to see that many of you new people are out and about having fun and please do continue. Considering the size, there is little need to prove your activity. The mods are quite capable of seeing who has been around and who is having fun compared to who has been silent.

If you do not hear from us, you're in the clear. If you receive a message/email/IM about your activity you will receive a strike. Three strike system.

This may change should the game pick up with more people.

Any questions? Ask away. :)

Stay spoopy.

Hello beautiful people. On the 25th there is going to be a big unveiling of places and NPCs. This even that you will be reading about below has many options and varieties in which you can have your character experience or they can choose to not experience it at all.

Please read at your leisure and use the "plot with me" thread to plot with other players or ask a mod something under the "ask a mod" thread. Hope you enjoy!

For those of you who have been here for awhile you've likely come to notice that there are no streets or hi-way out of this place and no matter how far you travel into the fog the mansion is always somehow in view. For those of you who have just arrived, you’ll come to see this soon. That euphoric feeling has long passed and allows you to continue wondering where you are and why. It's so barren and bleak and when those sirens begin to wail...

Weather
There is a storm on the rise and it starts with the sky turning a slight green come Day oo5.

Around the middle of Day oo5 strong winds will begin to pick up around the ‘outskirts’ of the mansion. There is a safe zone of roughly two miles out from the mansion before the winds become unbearable. Should your character get to roughly two miles out (or happen to be that far out when the storm comes) shadows will envelop them and they will find themselves inside the mansion. Should your character run from the shadows and passed this two mile mark, they will die.

By the end of Day oo6 it is too dangerous to go outside of the mansion at all and by Day oo7 any attempts to open the doors or windows will be unsuccessful. Shadows form along them and keep them closed. The shadows are not harmful unless provoked. It’s best to not do that unless you want to slowly suffocate.

During the mid of Day oo7 characters will be able to hear a faint chanting sound in a language they cannot understand. This sound will slowly fade from their ears and expose a uncontrollable lust inside of this. This lust does not need to be sexual in nature but it can be anything in which your character desires greatly: control, drink, food, etc. This urge will continue into Day oo8 with still no way to get out of the mansion.

Setting
No new locations introduced but characters will be forced to find their way into the mansion or will be carried there by shadows.

Items
As character's begin to feel this insatiable lust during the mid of Day oo7, they will find any item which might help them give to their lusting will appear. Please note that regular rules apply, if your character lusts for alcohol and they find bottles laying around to drink they may very well drink themselves to death.

Plot
See weather!

Plot
With a new batch of people coming in for the first time in possibly decades, the City decides to give them a proper welcoming. Sirens blaring and all clocks seeable stopped at midnight is enough to give anyone a proper fright. However, there’s an encouraging sound in the fog.

During the first Witching Hour (March 2) characters will experience a heightened sense of desire and strange bout of euphoria as if they should be here and want to be here. Amidst all the madness your character's may find themselves seeking purchase from each other. There is a building thirst that promises to be satisfied, but will it be or must you take it yourself?

This desire (for whatever your character desires) will continue past the Witching Hour and into the rest of the days but the euphoria will fade and allow characters to now question where they are and why. However strong this effects your character is up to you.

We are the City Of [...]
