Event Post: Senses Fail

THE RUNDOWN

Sorrow already let you guys know that it's just about time to move the city again, so we're sure you also know what that means. Who moves the city? Fear. What does he need in order to get that done? Yep, you got it. Fear. So it's time for you to feel just a bit - or maybe a lot - terrified. And Fear doesn't do things by halves.

He's changing the game a little this time, and taking something from you. Rather than an object, this is a part of you: a sense, and ability, a limb. Something you use every day, something that seems vital to you, and now it's gone. Will it come back? Probably, but... well, you can't be sure, and even if it does, you've still got to figure out how to live without it for awhile. Or maybe forever.

Vulnerability can be the most terrifying thing of all.

THE DETAILS

What will your character lose? Well, that's pretty much up to you, as long as it falls under the general idea of a sense, power, or ability. They could lose a sense, or part of one - going half-blind, being unable to taste. They could lose a power - their magic, their ability to stay in human form. Or they could lose an entire limb - an arm or a leg, or maybe just a finger. They could even have more than one thing taken from them, if you really want to be mean. One eye gone at the beginning of the event, and just as you're getting used to it, the other disappears? Yikes.

Fear won't take anything that will cause them to die instantly, however. No vital organs, no ability to breathe. He also won't take physical objects or memories. He's interested in causing fear, and dead people can't feel fear. Though, of course, he won't much care if you happen to, say, stumble into the river and drown because you suddenly can't see. That's really your fault, after all.

All missing things will be restored at the end of the event, and please remember that this event is optional - your character doesn't have to be affected if you don't want them to be. Have fun!

THE OVERVIEW

► May 14th: Your senses begin to fail
► May 20th: Luckily, they come back in the end

HI, I'M CURRENTLY BEING SICK.

Anyway, this is what I'm coming back for, so let's have a little rundown of how I'm going to be mean and rude to Lydia once again other than her having gotten her butt destroyed before I ran out of country.

So! It's going to start with her losing her magic, that's... that's the whole thing of it, really. Which, hilariously enough, also brings about her lich form since magic was kind of what gave everyone the illusion of ridiculous vogue elf to everyone around! Meaning skeleton in a black cloak being irritated and just kind of floating about.

But that's not all, folks, mind you before she was a necromancer she was also an illusionist. Meaning that any kind of offensive or defensive tactics she has was all magic based. So she's disugstingly and extremely vulnerable.

Which might not be a great thing while another lich is going full murder mode and the only differences between them is one is in red and one is in black and not using fire magic.

I sense this might be an easy thing to mix up.

Feel free to hit me up here or over at starshiranui for more plotty things.

CLEARLY THE ANSWER IS TO MISTAKE LYDIA AS BEING AWFUL AGAIN. Even if the awful thing isn't even her fault this time. Dammit, Lup.
