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!

Karkat is so down for an awesome action packed first mission, if anyone wants to partner up with him. He has no idea what he's getting himself into.
redregrets: (AT LEAST TRY TO USE YOUR THINK PAN)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Update! It looks like Dave is going to try and double wield Karkat and John which makes him a communist idiot, because it's going to lead to both Dave and Karkat getting injured.

Poor Rosalia is going to have her work cut out of her.

[personal profile] bloodinbloom 2013-05-13 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
She is. All these people coming back injured.
redregrets: (smug)

He didn't do it on purpose he swears. But maybe she can wait to patch him up if it means he gets some awesome battle scars no don't Karkat is dumb.

Or he can have Dr. Stein 2... I mean Lezard.
redregrets: (frightened)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
He would be more scared having Lezard patch him up then he would be in battle haha.
motherofthesun: ([Camellia] Hugs for everyone)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2013-05-13 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, awwe. /hugs

Amaterasu would have to be there to calm him down haha. Then he might be able to do it. *~The power of Calming Wavelengths!~*

BY YOUR POWERS COMBINED--

I-I mean, yeah, totally.
redregrets: (Default)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
YES.

Except Karkat is lame and he still hasn't figured out what his ability is beyond transforming. He's convinced he doesn't need any powers. He's lame.

Stick in the mud. Well, when he's better, Ammy will help him.
redregrets: (really now)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
He didn't have any powers at home or at least none that he's discovered. He's honestly half convinced turning into a weapon is all he can actually do.

True, true. Things have now changed.
redregrets: (smug)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
He'll figure it out eventually though, probably on this mission actually, and then he will brag about it to everyone who will listen haha.
pishirogane: ([Chibi] Urr...)

[personal profile] pishirogane 2013-05-13 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh Karkat... Karkat Karkat Karkat...

Being obnoxious is in his blood he can't help it.

... Understandable.
amorini: (Can't breathe)

[personal profile] amorini 2013-05-13 05:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Welp. I was going to offer Meenah to do the same with Karkat and Ramza except with less getting hurt, but oh well.
redregrets: (Default)

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Next time Meenah. He's got to prove himself in battle before he's worthy of you ;)
amorini: (You got me tripping)

[personal profile] amorini 2013-05-13 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
pls, he doesn't have to do any of that, otherwise she wouldn't have made him he threshecutioner, /okok

[personal profile] redregrets 2013-05-13 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
What is this flattery? He's not sure whether to object or accept it. it's not bulldozing it's just making more plans. i plan to have all the plans. terrible puns make everything better
