♛ The knife in my heart couldn't slow me down ♛

The Taste of Chicago. It’s the worlds largest free-admission outdoor food festival and a great way to try some of the best Chicago restaurants! Located around Lake Shore Drive, many of our favorites have opened their doors and booths to help grow their customer base. Some of the restaurants included are the Black Widow’s Seven Crows, Goddess Juice Bar, Eudaimonia Greek Resturant, Gin & Tango among others! Bars on display include the mixologists from the Cabaret, the Jade Lounge and Purgatory. It’s a hot day out there, so be sure to prepare... lucky for all, the Doctor is available at Northwestern Medicine’s tent just in case. 

Due to growing concern regarding the bombing, the Messiah has enacted multiple police checkpoints all around the city. With the help of the Crooked, CPD is busy at work clearing event goers and general traffic... 

(BEHIND THE SCENES) Knowing that the Taste of Chicago was the perfect cover, the Faction was able to coordinate a big shipment to the Sigara ports, the harbour sitting on the opposite side of the festival. Raw materials for the Zhang’s thriving drug trade, guns for the impending war... it’s nearly half a million sitting in cargo boxes. The Illegitimate plans with the three family representatives, settling on the fastest route to Chinatown- right through the festival, thanks to the Black Widow’s vendor clearance. It’s foolproof... For now, the Faction members and the Shadow- sent by the money to supervise their investment- wait for the faithful text to get going. 

The Kovali have all be ordered to attend, reasons still unclear as they walk through the gates. Some busy themselves with helping the affiliated businesses, others take the opportunity to check out the booths and some... some know that a king’s rage demands blood.

♞ Power is power, my fire never goes out ♞

OOC INFORMATION

Welcome to our second event here at blood kingdom, King’s Rage! We’re excited to take you on this crazy ride... it’s a guaranteed smash! King’s Rage will be a three-part event taking place at the taste of Chicago, with all characters currently at that location or the nearby port. We will be releasing smaller drops throughout this portion of the event to describe current conditions, perhaps any plans that may be coming about and all sorts of tomfoolery before our second drop!

Please tag all starters with bkevent02. And enjoy the peace while it lasts...

♛Blood is sitting on my hands♛

With every second, midnight inched closer. As it were, the guests lost themselves in the grandiose display- a cup always full, numerous faces curious about Chicago’s infamous family. The microphone cut through the noise, Rafal Kovali and his wife staring out into the great expanse. We thank you for being here this evening... 

(DURING) The Icarus had been all too curious yet again, a soft humming drawing them closer to a propped open utility closet. Under hazy lights, eyes widened at a device: red numbers counting down, wires connecting metal to metal. A disaster waiting to explode. They turned on their heel, racing towards the main atrium through the mirror maze, desperation running in their veins when they saw them, their eyes trying to register the Gambler’s and the Mad Scientist’s faces before they fell on the time. One minute. 

It was never meant to be just a party. It was meant to be revenge. Faced with the future they could’ve had, the Faction members looked with disgust upon every golden detail. The moment the invitations arrived, the plan had been set into motion by the Illegitimate. He gathered the three representatives: the Black Widow, the Traitor, The Casanova. “They think they’re untouchable, they think we’ve forgotten.”  Tonight, they would strike at the very heart and soul of the Kovali.

(MIDNIGHT)  Eager eyes watched through the atrium windows, awaiting the spectacular promise of a light show. Just as the first one sailed into the sky, colors painting the low clouds, the floor began to shake. It was silence... and then chaos. Explosions went off in the maze and then the atrium, the force sending waves throughout the crowds as the glass ceiling came crashing down. As if hell itself had opened up on navy pier, fire and smoke began to consume the space. A statement was made. 

♞ Smoke and retribution, keep it burning ♞

OOC INFORMATION

Welcome to part two of our Forged Fires event. The Faction has bombed navy pier, and for lack of a better word, the space is a battlefield. 

Guests have been trapped in the atrium, where danger is at every corner. Injuries are far and wide, with varying degrees of seriousness. Those hurt include The Coward, The Heir, The Cataclysmic, The Phoenix, The Crooked, The Princess, The Hot Shot with the The King & Queen in the worst shape.

While some made it into the mirror maze, trying to find a way out through each twist and turn, a fire rages threatening to suffocate them whole: The Sacrificed, The Consigliere, The Survivor, The Prospect, The Messiah,  The Shadow, The Doctor, The Lover, The Forgotten, The Icarus, The Paradox, The Weapon.

The Faction members have escaped relatively unscathed, meeting undeground as they watch the first brick in the Kovali’s castle turn to flames. Making it with their lives in tact, they hide in the Sigara warehouses as sirens wail: The Gambler, The Mad Scientist, The Traitor, The Casanova, The Black Widow, The Loyalist, The Illegitimate, The Spy. 

Please tag all starters with bkevent01. (;

→This just in…

Good evening Chicago! We here at ABC 7 just received word that our first responders have broken through Navy Pier and are in the process of rescuing stranded guests. Injuries range from small cuts to third degree burns, with all paitents being transported to Northwestern Memorial. We sending hopes for speedy recoveries for all those affected. Our official death count has hit 45. 

We had a witness call in earlier to the police, although they wished to remain anonymous (The Icarus). They provided details of the two men (The Gambler & The Mad Scientist) they saw setting up what looked like, we’ll now present the police department’s sketh rendering... These individuals are considered highly dangerous. If anyone has information regardig their identity, please contact the police department immediatly. 

Both Rafal and Irena Kovali remain in critical condition, with vitals that are unstablizied. We’ll continue to update as details come in. Stay safe Chicago!

40 hours have passed, the Faction holding both the Zephyr Jackson and Ismael De La Torre. Just as the sun began to set on the Windy City, a spark was lit. Restraints were loosened, a gun acquired. The shoot out began... But who was to blame for this carelessness?

CURRENTLY: Zephyr Jackson & Ismael De La Torre have managed to escape the Faction’s grasp, thanks to the aid of Channing Marx. Suspicion and tension runs high in the organization following a damning news report, and the all too convenient escape. Both Irena and Rafal are stuck are stuck in Northwestern, in a medically induced coma. For the time being, the highest rank members are Zephyr Jackson, Alex Yuen and the Capos. Kovali associates and unaffiliated are being treated at the packed emergency room floor and slowly make their way home after a disastrous evening. Threads can now commence without involvement in the event! These can include trying to get back to work after injuries, visiting other characters, beginning to plan retaliation, snuffing out a rat... it’s all up to your imagination! Just remember, all actions have consequences...

♛Do you think about me now and then?♛

It’s time lost... three years of it thrown to the wind. While the ranks closed in, a part was missing in the Kovali’s well-oiled machine. The eldest son sat behind bars, one disastrous evening costing both freedom and reputations with a single fell swoop. That all changed... Rafal Kovali wasn’t a sentimental man, compassion coming with strings attached and a bigger picture painted. When the idea rolled into his head, it offered potential.

(ONE) Good Graces: Welcome home your fallen son, bring him into the fold and quell any possible doubts with a homecoming that rivaled anything the city had seen. He was, after all, your flesh and blood. And loyalty was demanded of those that carried your name.

(TWO) An Olive Branch: It’s not something Chicago was used to, an open invitation, as if it was a peace offering extended in a sealed envelope. The remainder of the five families, the reporters that ran your name through the mud... let them see your family rise from the ashes like it always did. In full force, in full strength. Maybe in close proximity, those bold enough to call themselves the faction will be reminded of just who you are. The influence and power you possessed. 

The plans moved into motion, a familiar setting hosting the most unlikely gathering. All that was left was setting off the spark for fires forged...

♞'Cause I'm comin' home again ♞

Location: Navy Pier

Who: Everyone & Anyone

You’re cordially invited to the Kovali’s festivities, a homecoming party for the Sacrificed that’s guaranteed to go down in history. Navy Pier is a labyrinth, the multitude of twisting hallways and mirror mazes leading to the main nature conservatory. You can catch a glimpse of the beautiful Chicago skyline as the sun sets on the windy city through the floor to ceiling windows and just before the clock strikes midnight, the famous fireworks show glitters over Lake Michigan- a must-see spectacle. Of course, the bars are stocked and ready to accommodate whatever drinks you desire, with music floating across the expansive and winding pier.

[bloodkingdomrp]

It’s a small office, high on the 10th floor overlooking the park. Dark eyes looked through the windows and into the crowd, the King himself hearing as the door left with his message...

Rafal Kovali has requested to speak with...

Eldar & Isekender Kovali

Zephyr Jackson & Anika Dayal
