EVENT: Send in the Clowns

It's been a while since we've heard from the bird Witches that captured and experimented with guests in Chile, Argentina and Bolivia. Some people have probably put that incident out of their minds. (Definitely not a couple of you who have developed a vendetta against Hachi of course.) After all, bad things have a habit of happening and then no longer being an issue...

Well, up until the moment they become an issue again.

Early in the morning on August 5th (Day Change of January 10th), those Guests who had brought back tiny stuffed hummingbirds from the skii trip will find that their eyes start to oulse with a faint glow. It certainly looks harmless enough even if you can't turn it off.

Anyone who believes that is wrong though.

Hachi has created clowns who bear only a superficial similarity to humans in that most of them have fours limbs and a head...and they're using the small plush birds as homing beacons. Fighting them reveals that these things seem to possess the powers of the Guests who were previously attacked!


There are four kinds of Clowns that will attack the city, some of them have slightly different shapes, but the easiest way to tell them apart is colour. Here are the abilities and weaknesses they will have!

Purple Clowns : have the ability to seemingly sap people's energies though it is weak and not very effective and is limited to 10 meters. They also have regenerative abilities that allow them to recover from minor wounds almost instantaneously though anything bigger will take more time.

Mustard Yellow Clowns : have one eye that is red and one that us blue (though why anyone would want to be close enough to see this is) these ones have psychic powers including creating psychic energy blasts and manipulating materials.

Silver Clowns : Shape shifting, increased strength and speed. The shape shifting is incredibly crude, often barely looking like what it's supposed to be turning into and when it does succeed, it's usually without much adornments. Weak to electricity.

Red Clowns : These fast Clowns have elongated pieces extending from the top of its head as if...it had hair? It is capable of instantly stealing/plundering the heat/energy of any target it can see. This typically results in the target getting lit on fire as it takes the heat away from her target that the surrounding air is too hot, hence producing flame. These Clowns are basically blind as bats though so as long as you keep your distance or, if you are forced to be in close quarters, kill it fast you should be safe...maybe.


NOTE: only abilities that could be feasibly recreated have been used. (As much as I would love to have Clowns that summoned Personas.)

several stupid questions over here....

[personal profile] tauborn 2014-01-08 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
So for this homing ability, does this mean the clowns just teleport/fall from the sky into someone's house/vicinity to keychain? Or do the clowns still have to enter like a zombie invasion or something?

Also, is it one clown per keychain?

Lastly, are the clowns supposed to be on par with a Kishin egg in terms of fighting ability? Or are we looking at something more like the Black Clowns which are pretty terrifying/hard to kill?

I can keep going until I get to one probably?

[personal profile] tauborn 2014-01-09 12:01 pm (UTC)(link)
That does help! Thanks!

So we can expect the clowns to show up where guests usually gather, and especially around the guest accommodations? Because I assume that's where there'll be the most keychains....

REGARDING TRAINING!

Since the training log was planned to be up on the 10th as well, I was wondering if there was a specific time-frame for when the clowns attack? I do expect people to play out noticing the hummingbirds activate since that is supposed to start early in the day, but depending on when the clowns attack could cause some conflict.

If the attack comes late enough in the day (anytime after 9) then it won't affect training. If it comes towards the end of training, people could segue into the attacks. But if you all think that the clowns will attack too early in the morning (close or before 6am), when training has only just begun or before it starts, then it may be best to change the date of training altogether.

Just want to get some clarification before changing anything up on the people making plans in the coord post. :3

It's fine! :D The weekend is really the best time for events in just about any game, so I don't blame you guys~

Okay, sounds good! Thanks for the clarification!

Just clarifying but since they're not kishin eggs, it's possible to fight them with normal weapons, right?

A small fact-check! One that's probably obvious, but. Just checking/don't want to presume.

—what do the clowns bleed. Actual blood? y-yes it makes a difference.

question! the event will only last one day, correct? Are the clowns gone by the 6th?

And if so, will there be an hospital log, or can we go ahead and post it by ourselves?

Jumping in as helper mod...

[personal profile] vintage_magic 2014-01-15 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, the event was only meant to be one day! Sorry if it seemed confusing from the day change. I'll go edit that a little...

And as far as I know, I don't think there was a clinic log planned. But you're welcome to post one on your own!
