Plot Update

So Fortuna. Disappearing objects. Bodies. Fog. What's next?


You're about to find out. Thursday morning characters will wake up to find the world very different from the one they knew. It seems darker. Meaner. If that's even possible. The sky's a decided overcast grey, if you can even make it out through all the fog. Let's not forget that eerie silence that comes with it.

Keep your eyes open though and you'll see something new.



On walls in every city, both inside and outside buildings, on floors and ceilings is writing.

THE SCIENTISTS DON'T CARE

we're all
going to D I E    here

BETTER TO GO        LAUGHING→




STAY STRONG

I don't want it to end here

love you



There are all sorts of messages in all kinds of styles. Some are inspirational, others... not so much. One thing is uniform in all of them though: desperation. Whoever wrote these messages, they were all scared, at the end of their ropes, ready to give up or make a last stand. Maybe this really was the apocalypse...

Of course now that another puzzle's been thrown out, how about wrapping up a previous one? All objects and bodies will finally be stationary. That is, no more blinking out, no more disappearing. They're yours to keep and move around and do with as you please. Of course so is everything that comes with them. The missing blood pools, the flies, the empty bullet cartridges, the signs of heavy fighting left from weapons. And let's not forget the smell. Try not to lose your lunch Fortuna.


Finally one more important thing before we get onto this week's bout of monsters: ALL CHARACTERS WHO DIE WILL NOW BE REVIVED AT THE HOSPITAL IN SPERO. This will continue to be the case until further notice!

This week in Spero:
Drag Tentacle wiki
These beasts hide anywhere possible, they lurk about where you least expect them and strike instantaneously at you. Once they have their hold it's near impossible to escape their grasps. Better hope you're a good shot with a cool head and aim for the yellow sacks pulsating from their lengths to break free. Their tentacles can expand for a seemingly indefinite distance and drag you toward its bowels. Hence the name Drag Tentacle. Once you have reached the mouth it will tear and eat you until your death.

Insidious Ruin wiki
That slime on the floor just ahead might look harmless at first, but step too close and you'll find yourself face to face with this baby-faced creature. With doll heads and engines that pump out smog, this slimy Ruin attacks by swiping at its victims. Give them a good slash with a blade or a powerful hit and they'll return to the mess they came from.

Hospital in Spero only:
Giant Germ wiki
Did you cough just now? Better hope not. These giant germs might be lurking around. Able to grow up to the size of a full adult man, these giant germs often call upon eachother for help. Get rid of one and you might just find yourself facing two more. While not particularly powerful, if you're not careful you could soon find yourself being smothered in a swarm. Remember to wash your hands afterwards...

FAQ
 Q. What if my character eats a body?
 A. All bodies will now have the normal, enjoyable taste of dead, rotting flesh. Salt to taste and enjoy!

 Q. What if my character loots [useful canon item] from a corpse?
 A. Leave us a comment here for approval first from one of us, but as of now characters will be able to keep any items they filch until notice otherwise.

I didn't write that shit man I swear

Question!

[identity profile] mysterycross.livejournal.com 2011-09-22 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Is the Spero Hospital full of... things, like the Discedo one was when the game first started?
Or is it just empty and dilapidated?
I mean, obviously it's not in great condition, but...

So how much necrophilia will result out of these developments, tell me now.

ALSO ADDING TO MY OLD (deleted) COMMENT BECAUSE IDEA: who here can kill Jack? I'd like to get him back to Spero, maybe working on the transportation to it after this all blows over, and he'd probably want to hang with some bros too, so...yeah.
