If there was anything to be said about weather after global wars and environmental destruction, it’s that mother nature is here to fight back in every way she can and more often than not, she succeeds. Meteorologists and storm trackers do their best to alert people of the incoming dangers but their resources are much more limited than they were pre-apocalypse. While things are improving every day, there is still a long way to go. This storm came with little warning but as they learned information it was broadcast across all television access channels and radio stations.
The storm started in the mountains in the early morning hours and spread fast, by nightfall a size two avalanche had slipped down from the peak closest to Mothman Ranch. It took out a large part of the fencing and damaged a few of the smaller homes located on the property. Leaving in small units of six to ten, the members of the eclipse made their way out of the ranch to find safety. The night mother and a few members of her guard were the last to leave the property.
When the first snowflake fell to the ground in Devil’s Elbow, there was no time to prepare for the blizzard that followed. The fog rolled out of the trees and off the mountain, the wind howled through the city, and soon the snow got heavier, mixing together to cause low visibility and difficult transportation. By noon on December 2nd, the power grid was disrupted by a transformer blowing. Rolling blackouts began, and eventually fixing the power became too dangerous and people were advised to seek shelter at the compound or the newly renovated community center, which peacekeepers assisted by EAA soldiers helped people get to if they were able.
For those living in rural Devil’s Elbow or stuck in the elements, they were fast diverted to Bunker 7. They were able to get the generator up and running at half-capacity but no one knows for how long and resources are limited there. There are, however, plenty of rooms and beds available while the group figures out how to get out of there and get back home. Meanwhile, there is still a beast that some have rumored to be Deathknell Bear, still roaming around in the area. Last spotted near the Afterglow Compound, though no confirmations as to what it actually is have been made. Residents have been warned for weeks to only leave protected areas at their own risk. Updates are still being communicated on WDER when they’re able to get a signal from within the Community Center. Stay tuned for more updates.

✱ OOC :
Please read all points as there are specific instructions and changes for this event :
how your character got to the place they are assigned is completely up to you, if there are any major events you would like to happen or are going to have happen to your character during the event let us know and we will do our best to include as many things as we can in the updates.
if there is a reason you do not want your character in the place they were assigned you are welcome to bring a convincing argument for why they should be moved to the admins and we will hear you out, this is not guaranteed to happen but we will accommodate those with good reason.
your character CAN leave their location and brave the storm to get somewhere else we do ask that you write at least ONE thread in the starting location or have spent one day there before moving.
keep in mind if your character moves : the electricity is out in most of the city of burnington, the community center, bunker, and compound have generators but the only one guaranteed to last is the compounds. there are also white out conditions and threats of more avalanches as snow accumulates, finding your way will be very, very hard. not to mention there’s a beast out there who isn’t bothered by the cold.
the blizzard from start to finish, will last TWO WEEKS in game time from DECEMBER 2ND, 2125 to DECEMBER 16TH, 2125. people can plan to be stuck for at least the FIRST WEEK of the blizzard, but plan to shelter in place for longer a.k.a. WAIT for an update before writing threads outside of the three locations unless otherwise discussed with the admins.
this event will last the ENTIRE MONTH of MARCH and APRIL, with plot drops throughout. we are allowing everyone to get a jumpstart on things and threads may be posted starting at 12:01AM on FEBRUARY 27TH and no new threads can be posted after 11:59PM APRIL 28TH.
for this event we would like everyone to WRAP their previous threads by ENDING them or HEADCANONING them, if they are integral to a PLOT LINE you have going with your character you may continue them throughout the event, otherwise we ask that you focus on only EVENT threads. this gives everyone the ability to start fresh and move forward together.
any NEW CHARACTERS will be sorted into a location at random when they are accepted so they can participate in the event.
any questions can be directed to the questions channel in discord or to the admins.
please tag all STARTERS for this event ‘ dehqevent005 ‘
