Event Aftermath: Madness Emitters
The multi-month long campaign to destroy the Madness Emitters in proximity to Death City is finally over! This will have several wide-spreading effects that characters will be able to act on, so here's a little "State of the World" post following the past few in-game weeks.
(Are you one of our newcomers? Or are you an old player looking to refresh yourself on everything that happened these past few months? Check out the Event Summary page here!)
In or around Death City
► Thanks to the Witch attacksand also robots several streets and blocks in the city are totalled, especially in the Outer Residential Quarters where the guest residencies are located.
► The island which carried the Nocturne Bazaar is now a fixture outside Death City; for the time being, it remains a danger zone, and guests are prohibited from going near until Shibusen's teams can determine it's safe.
► Several streets in the Shopping District are taken up by colourful tents -- hundreds of refugees from the carnival displaced by the attack are currently setting up shop with what little they have left and trying to get by until something can be done for them.
► In the near future, guests who've taken up residency in the Creeping Crypts will be asked by Shibusen to relocate to Casualty Communal, in order to free up space for the refugees. If you have characters in the Crypts and would like to specifically request a new room in the Communal, please comment on the Residencies page to claim one! Otherwise, an announcement with a list of random reassignments will be made this Friday (the in-game date of April 8th.)
► The park is filled with rubble fallen from the Bazaar during the battle. Morning training (which still occurs daily, even though it’s only ICly logged once a month!) might be a little messy for some time.
► Attention, competitors in the Bazaar’s Beauty Pageant: the winners have been determined! And despite their troubles, the refugees have managed to salvage the rewards they had prepared for the victors. Kanji Tatsumi and Yako Katsuragi can expect to have somewhat scorched and battered-looking golden tiaras and a cool 500D$ each delivered to them on the in-game date of April 8th.
The world at large
► Madness levels all over North America are falling rapidly, and the need for Kid’s protective barrier around Death City has passed. Travel outside the city is now safer than ever (so if you were planning that trip to Las Vegas, now would be the time...)
► The situation in Europe, Africa, and Asia has not changed. Shibusen agents (including guests) will still be sent there for the occasional mission.
► Europe in particular has been experiencing some trouble with anti-Shibusen sentiments. Several riots have broken out and, though they’ve been quelled, it leaves some leaders in other countries wondering if the same problems will crop up there too...
► South America’s Madness levels, on the other hand, are rising dangerously; some witnesses report what appears to be a physical manifestation of the wavelength, as a sort of miasma. Travel there has been closed off for the time being.
And last, but not least... Have you heard? Your fearless leader’s Weapon partners have acquired the Witch souls they needed: Patti and Liz have ascended to Death Scythe status! Go give ‘em your congratulations! (But be sure to save some for two of your own who’re rapidly approaching that same goal...)
