Event - Trouble in Central America!, New Missions, and Deathscythe SOS
Salutations, Soul Campaign! Here's your monthly modpost with what we've got cooked up!
Game-wide Mission!
A while back, a few of the Guest Agents signed up to investigate some strange things that were happening in Central America. They came back with some fragments of metal that, after thorough testing, were found to have traces of Black Blood! Coupled with an intact container that investigators found and brought in for examination, it has been concluded that the fragments came from a container that held a Black Blood compound to poison the water supplies and, in turn, crops and wildlife. The Witches are on the move again.
Those who had been in Death City when the water supply was tainted with Black Blood probably haven't forgotten the chaos it caused and those who hadn't experienced that will get the chance to see it soon enough. Hopefully you've all been training in resisting Madness!
Shibusen has received distress calls from San José in Costa Rica and Tegucigalpa in Honduras, with requests to help evacuate the people of those cities. Madness levels have gone through the roofs and is showing no signs of dying down, rendering the cities uninhabitable. To add to the problem (because we all know when it rains, it pours) the high amounts of Madness have driven many citizens to insanity in both areas; those who consumed the souls of their victims have become Kishin Eggs and are hunting for their next meal...
The mission to San José and Tegucigalpa will take place on May 29th in game, which will fall on this coming Friday the 17th, and mission sign-ups are now available on the Mission Board. Completion of the mission will reward 5 Kishin Egg souls and 5 Meister Points to all pairs who participate. There will also be an announcement from Shibusen soon, so keep your eyes out for that!
New Missions, Deathscythe SOS
The Mission Board has a batch of brand new tasks fresh from the... oven...? You'll find them right here! Take a look at them, and feel free to sign up for whatever adventure tickles your fancy!
Also, a new little feature has been added to the Mission System! Typically, when a pair signs up for a mission, a 20-sided die is rolled. After Meister and Weapon modifiers, a 15 or higher means the mission is a success. But what if the roll comes close, like a 13 or a 14?
That's where Deathscythe SOS comes in! Cloud and Sephiroth, the very first Guest Three-Star Meister and Deathscythe pair, are always on the hunt for malevolent Witches and Kishin Eggs around the world. On any mission dice roll that comes very close to success, agents are given a 50/50 chance that help happens to be in the area, and are asked if they'd like to call an SOS on their communicators. Should they accept, Cloud and Sephiroth will be alerted and will swoop in to turn the tide of battle, changing a near-miss to an automatic success.
This is optional, of course, if for CR reasons or otherwise you would prefer to take the mission failure.
SO TO SUMMARIZE...!
-Mission to two cities in Central America, awarding 5 Kishin Eggs/5 Meister Points! Sign-up is right here, and an IC announcement will be up soon!
-New Missions!
-Cloud and Sephiroth don't mind helping you whup some demon butt if you're in a little pinch!
Feel free to use this post to ask questions and plot amongst yourselves! Have a good one!

Questions
Re: Questions
Is it possible for someone to lose their partner in battle and just partner up with someone else they find? Just so I can see my possibilities XD
(I understand the reward will always be 5 souls/pints no matter what, it's not really about that c: )
no subject
(I wouldn't mind five pints right now...)

The description for all that is coming up in a post I'm making for it riiiight now, so sit tight!
Re: Questions
Since there's Black Blood involved in this mission, is there any chance that someone going on it could get infected? (ala what happened to Soul)
no subject
I seriously typed 'properly infect' them. Wow.

Sooo. How far can we go with this? I checked the wikia to figure out just what Black Blood can do, but I imagine that there must be limitations to use it in game. what can we do with it, and what can we not do?
Re: Questions
Six is
infinitely paranoidkeeping an eye on Biowulf and knows that Biowulf is a good fighter from fighting him all the time at home. I have permission from Biowulf's mun to bring him along in addition to Six's regular partner Holiday.Six most likely won't use Biowulf in Weapon form and, if he does, likely will suffer burns for handling him because they don't have a proper resonance which Six will only do if it's a huge emergency. Just to give a proper perspective.
I'm going with the idea that even if Biowulf isn't wielded, he'd still receive the kishin eggs? Also, for the sign up post, would I have to list Biowulf a secondary Weapon?
no subject
Just remember that Holiday and Six have to make the killing blow- the power of a paired Meister and Weapon in resonance is required to actually kill one.
