Dreams & Spectres

A steadily increasing number of Changelings and their Kinain have begun to experience intermediate nightmares of being chased by something in the dark, or being trapped beneath the earth as if buried alive, while others dream of more horrifying things where their truest fears plague them in ways that feel all too real, awakening at the very last moment to find themselves unharmed in their beds. Those who suffer the worst of the nightmares relate that it feels like their Faerie soul had been ripped from them, leaving them with only the smallest pieces of tattered Glamour left to sustain them.

Feel free to have your characters experience any number of nightmares. For those who decide they want to go for the worst of them all, send me an FPM and I'll let you know exactly what happens afterwards.

ATTENTION: Players of Sluagh who decide to subject their characters to any of the nightmares from this plotline also feel a sense of shame and foreboding that they can't readily explain.

Possible Murder may be involved in cover up of political scandal

On Tuesday, March 25, the beaches of Playa del Rey were the site of a tragic death. Eighteen year old Carlita Rosa was found dead along the shore from an inconclusive cause. Preliminary blood screens show an excessive amount of narcotics in her blood and police liasons are hinting at possible foul play. This tragic news occurs as a bizarre coincidence as Carlita came forward to talk to reporters at the Los Angeles Times about possible connections and business transactions between her former employer Lorenzo 'Fat Cat' Clemmont and council woman, Nerese Cooper. More news on this as further leads are examined.

Influences

Okay, I've processed all the pending Influences that were sitting in my Inbox. And I apologize profusely for the delay. Things have been really hectic here.

Still, that's no excuse and I intend to make sure delays like this never happen again.

However, to make sure that the system runs more efficiently, I have to put the Influence game on hiatus for about a month. You're not losing your Influences and you can still use them for specific actions in-game by going through your game ST as usual. But I need some Influence downtime to come up with a better system.

When the Influence game picks back up, I hope for it to be more efficient, more player-friendly and not quite so Tony-dependent so that it doesn't grind to a complete halt if I get busy.

If all goes as planned, Influence should resume under the new system by the beginning of May.

Festivo dello Estinto

Okay, I'd like to make this a repeat of last year. I really would. Last year, despite all the work it was, was also a lot of fun. And I know everyone enjoyed a full week of back-to-back activities for their Sabbat.

But, I don't think I can do that this year. I'm swamped with work as it is, and I don't think I can make time for a full week of activities like last year.

However, there will still be a Festivo dello Estinto. I'm not going to just forget one of the big Sabbat holidays. So, while it may still technically be a week late, consider Festivo to be on. The Archbishop is opening festivities now.

There won't be an official opening ceremony like last year, but for the next week, just turn loose and have fun with your Sabbat. It's the Sabbat Mardi Gras, so make a party out of it.

Next Monday, at 7pm CST, I'll run the closing ceremonies for the Festivo. This night will be mandatory so if you can't make it OOC, send me a PM to make sure your character can make it IC.

OK This is the only way I know to let everyone know that they should all see it. As of this coming Thursday I will now be working the overnight shift so my RP time will be much more limited. Anything I play or run will be on my days off from now on. Hope you all understand and thank you.
