OOC News
Not too much to say OOC!
Last Week...
On Wednesday, our intrepid Keepers, Slayers, and allies made their way to Apollo's lair! They found a full-fledged war between Undine's and Apollo's elementals, which certainly didn't make it easy to get through.
Some of them fought Rathgriz. They found out he -- and two other spirits -- were revived with parts of Lera. They got his, though he gave his life up to give it to them. The rest rushed into the Seal Room, and fought against Undine -- and those she brought with! Ezra and Victor managed to subdue Undine; Madi's robot was ultimately stopped too. Nayan had a change of heart.
Lera tackled Vanya into a hallway in the beginning of the fight. She struck a mortal blow! However, Ashtaroth and the Ancient Master showed up just in time to save his life.
Which is good, because after Undine was weakened, Vorinus showed up! He managed to bind Undine to his will. Asmo, who had always been the Masked Man, managed to get back to the scroll... and gave up his life to transform all Patisse and Castillo members into Almagoras members (at least, magically)! Vorinus went berserk, but the ancient master managed to slow him, and our heroes fled.
After that, there was some time to rest. Things in the world have gotten awkward; Vorinus vowed to destroy Schellenberg, but he has holed up in Paracelsus and not yet taken such actions. However, House Schellenberg is preparing for war -- and the word is that House Weatherford will stand with their old allies. Castillo and Patisse are left discombobulated, though. House Patisse has said they will continue on. House Castillo's leadership has gone into seclusion -- and will say nothing about what they intend.
Apollo is nowhere to be seen.
...This Week!
First: our big event is on Saturday and this will be a major change for the game. We encourage social RP before them, because characters will be in a very different location next week and that will affect the backdrop and content of scenes a lot.
Life at Paracelsus is a little bit tense, to say the least. The SICU safehouse has a generator -- courtesy of Guillaume -- so there's electricity and even internet now. Most characters will probably want to stay there.
Vorinus has locked down campus. It's possible to sneak in (and doesn't require admin approval); there are animated golems and Undine's ice elementals patrolling. House Vorinsky students and staff are also being drafted to assist. Classes continue for everyone except House Schellenberg students; they have all been rounded up and sent to the gymnasium. Vorinus isn't specifying if they're in any danger. Unruly Weatherfords will be sent there, too.
However, there is some resistance. Apollo isn't wild about Vorinus controlling the school; he's snuck some of those he controls out into the woods, and thus fire elementals are occasionally attacking the patrols on campus. Cleverly, Apollo has hidden this as a resistance against Vorinus's control; students and staff under his control are messing with Vorinus.
On Thursday night, there will be a smaller event with Ashtaroth and Vanya.
On Saturday, the Battle of the Tower begins. This event will have two areas. The first is for characters you don't want involved in Apollo's big push; this is a battle against the Vorinsky forces and Undine's ice elementals. During this, the imprisoned students can be freed. The mods won't be running this, and we'll leave it open to player participation.
The second is the battle outside of the Tower. This will involve Apollo and many of the students he controlled. It will likely be divided into stages, because that worked well for the last event.
Weather
There is a low level rain all week, until Saturday. Then, it's cloudy and ominous, with whipping winds.
