as you will be aware, an unexpected tragedy has recently struck our small town. the losses we have suffered, both individually and as a community, are insurmountable. while i am sure you will have questions - which of course, must be answered - we must first use this time to mourn and pay our respects to those who have passed. your town leadership has arranged for a candlelit memorial to be held atop st. stephen’s hill this evening, january 15th. please gather your friends, your family, and join together in force. the memorial will begin at 7pm where every attendant will be asked to light a candle for their loved ones.
please remember - we can only weather this storm, and bear this grief, if we are willing to support one another during this terrible time.
yours,
mayor witherton.
OOC notes;
mayor witherton is at this time refusing to discuss the actual details of the massacre
a vague statement was put out about a party gone wrong but otherwise, no official word has been propagated.
the memorial will happen in game on the night of the 15th. however, in real time, the memorial will occur on Thursday 17th at 11pm GMT - Sunday 20th at 11pm GMT.
the purpose of the memorial is to gather at the top of st stephens hill and light candles for those that died. threads that occur during this time should be related to the memorial even if your character decides not to attend.
Happy Valentine’s Day lovebirds and single pringles !!
Alfie’s Bar will be throwing a valentine’s bash for the annual day of celebration && commiseration. Expect heart confetti, balloons, love ballads on the speakers and way, way, way too much booze. Entry is free as always and anyone old enough to remember Never Had A Dream Come True on the radio is welcome to attend. Doors will be open from 8 till late so get in and let cupid’s arrows fire.
IC Event Notes:
The event will take place on the night of the 14th of February.
As Alfie’s tends to be a younger crowd not everyone will be expected to attend this bar and may choose to visit one of the other watering holes throwing more low key evenings.
Alfie’s will be offering a special valentine’s cocktail at the bar and providing sample shots as a promotion on the street outside.
The management is not aware that their cocktail mix has been tainted with small doses of foxglove, vervain and wolfsbane.
While completely harmless and ineffective on any humans that consume the free shots && valentine’s cocktails, any supernatural that drinks these may experience the following symptoms: hallucinations, inability to lie/desire to profess hidden truths && a lack of control over their abilities. The symptoms will be less or more severe depending on how much the person drinks.
OOC Event Notes:
The event will start at 11pm (GMT) on Wednesday 13th and will end at 11pm (GMT) on Friday 15th.
We know that some of your characters might not go to Alfie’s which is why we’ve made it that Alfie’s is offering promo shots outside the bar. This way even if your character doesn’t attend the event itself they can still be part of the effects of the ‘poison’ if you so choose.
Supernaturals will not know what is effecting them; the alcohol && mixers in the cocktail mix will disguise the taste of the plants. They also won’t have an immediate effect so some people might have knocked back several before any symptoms hit.
Please tag your event starters with laytersevent002 and put current threads on hold during the event.
good morning guys !! to clarify, our first event is now over !! you may continue your threads from the event to wrap them up but please don’t start any new ones set at the memorial. watch out later today for a little plot drop related to the memorial...
