so, about that dusty museum…

Everyone having fun exploring the bunker? Feel free to keep it up and keep looting it, it's not going away any time soon. But there's one tiny little problem, and that's going to take a few days to make itself known—something in the air in the bunker, or all the dust that was stirred, has unleashed a sort of gas in the city.

And what does it do?

Well, it causes a bit of a cough. But that's hardly worth warning about, is it?

Tonight, characters might not have the best night's sleep—bad dreams, restless sleeping, that sort of thing. They might wake up feeling tired or sore, with the impression of bad dreams, they might remember the nightmares or they might only remember not having slept well.

Sunday, perhaps because of the bad night's sleep, characters will find themselves feeling restless and anxious, suspicious and paranoid. It's not major and won't interfere with people's day to day activities—it'll just feel like they woke up on the wrong side of the bed and are having a bad day. The bad dreams will continue.

Monday, things start to get bad. People will begin hallucinating, awake or asleep. What they see is up to the player, but it'll all be nightmares: they can see bad memories, people they don't want to remember, relive past events… or, you can make up things for them, so long as it falls under a bad dream. Are they afraid of spiders? They're now surrounded by them. Did they almost lose someone important to them? Well, now they get to see that person die after all. Anything a character would conceivably have a nightmare about: failing, bad memories, anxieties, anything goes. They might only see a person in the room who isn't there, or they might think they're somewhere new.

Characters won't forget about Discedo, and can be aware it's a dream or not real, but it's a total sensory experience—even if they sort of know they aren't standing on the edge of a cliff, it'll feel in every way like they are. They can't be physically hurt by the visions, and other characters cannot see the visions.

Starting Monday, these will last until Wednesday, growing less intense and then stopping entirely as the gas disperses.

But wait, there's more!

Remember how Discedo has an arson problem? Yeah. On Wednesday at 2 PM, the high school will be lit on fire, starting with the auditorium. We'll give more details on Tuesday, so be prepared!

As always, feel free to ask questions here!

guess we couldn't stay sane forever

Can you tell me where exactly I can find a list of the classes that are in session?

Classes run weekly, right? And classes are at a certain time...so it would be kind of important for players to know if their character is committed to a thing at the school at that time. I think X_x;

Is all that under "playmyace"? I'll make the list for you, if you need..

PS: I knew some craziness was coming.

I was definitely thinking we were all gonna get the virus and die. This is better. Cause...we're not dead and stuff

[personal profile] kongeriget 2010-12-05 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
As all the classes are player run, unfortunately, the mods don't keep track of them—it's a good idea, but I honestly don't know when they are. Hopefully people will be able to step up and share it!

(And no, you won't get the virus. Discedo backstory stuff—everyone is actually immunized by the scientists before they arrive, so Atropos isn't deadly to characters anymore.)

[identity profile] luke-triton.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

I read that. I really did. I just..forgot.

I actually made a list from playmyace...could you add it here? Just so people know. Not all have them times/days listed, so if it was on the list I added it, even if it didn't say Weds:
Hughes' Knife-Fighting Class at 1PM
Phoenix's art class? It says "meet when you want"
Raphael's gym class? No days given
Japan's English class is held Weds
Edgeworth's German class is held from 10 to 11a on Weds, so if you loitered about before going home...

I think most the classes happen in the grade school, since most the high school is being lived in. But, I'm not sure. I know some things happen in the high school though, like the gym and stuff.

[identity profile] luke-triton.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
^ That I did not know.

Sorry! Please disregard my fail. I'm still learning the details. (So...maybe I didn't realize there was more than one school...X_x)

Don't worry about it, I don't think the information has really been stated anywhere. I know a long long time ago when a "school" was established it was in a grade school somewhere.

Hurray for more trauma!

Monday is going to be so much fun. 8)

aaaaaw yeeeeeah 8)

also, Italy's going to be screaming down the hall for three days. just a head's up.

[identity profile] remnantstrike.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's okay, Chihiro may or may not remembering the time she got hit by a car!! More screaming for everyone!

And if people can dream about past experiences they've forgotten, then I have a lot of things I can pick from... |D

[identity profile] dustedsunlight.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
WOOHOO, CARS i mean wat. |DD

I THINK SO why the hell not. It's a fabrication of the mind, so the memories have to be in there somewhere... ♥

[identity profile] remnantstrike.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 09:21 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing like dreaming about childhood traumas to cheer you up. :')

ALRIGHT THEN this means Chihiro can hallucinate/dream about her sort of boyfriend! And not know who he is or why he looks upset! Strangers and car accidents and anxiety, the perfect day for her.

Hallucinations? Bad dreams? Paranoia?

WOOHOO, TRAUMAAAAA

~*~*EXACTLY*~*~

I haven't had enough trauma with that blob, I must fix this.

OMG, there is so much shit that Raph could have nightmares over. xD

Here's to hoping someone at that apartment stays sane through this. Because Danny is so going to freak out over the hallucinations.

I vote for the time he was eaten by a giant cockroach!

Quick question! Would newly approved character suffer from the gas or no?
kongeriget: (lol)

[personal profile] kongeriget 2010-12-05 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! It's in the air in the city, so while they might not get it as quickly as people who went to the museum when it first opened up, everyone is free to be exposed, even those accepted tomorrow!

Of course, it's also optional, so if you don't want your character to suffer, you don't have to.

[identity profile] goongala-ny.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
... I now totes hope that this guy gets in. *Keeps her fingers crossed.*

Meanwhile... I SHALL PLOT ON WHAT TO DO WITH SAI!

oh man i missed the last trauma plot due to uh. getting killed. but THIS TIME I AM TOTALLY HERE. aw yisssss.

[identity profile] remnantstrike.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
It's possible for Huey to be traumatized...? :| Marta does not believe this BUT I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

[identity profile] evaluative.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
well, he was already trauma'd a good many years ago, this is just a good reminder of it.

because everyone likes to be reminded of when their mom or wife/girlfriend died, amirite?

[identity profile] remnantstrike.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
lfsajfkl yes those are definitely the best kinds of memories to remember. Helping to shape Huey into the wonderful guy he is...

[identity profile] evaluative.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
oh yes! look on the bright side, at least now when he says he wants everyone to die he might be lying, unlike after it was just his mom who died. :D yay.

[identity profile] noblecrimson.livejournal.com 2010-12-05 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
... now to think if I want to do anything for Marivel or not. SHE KIND OF JUST. Came from a point in time where everyone close to her kicked the can

And if I'm gonna do anything for Anna. HMMM. She could either just think she failed school or maybe remember Isolde killing her

YAY MORE SISTER COMPLEX-Y THINGS FOR ALICE 8D

Though I do have a question, is it alright if Amu ends up dying during the fire at the high school? o:
kongeriget: (yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh)

[personal profile] kongeriget 2010-12-05 10:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's perfectly fine! We'll post more details about it on Tuesday, but there's nothing to prevent characters from dying if they so choose.
