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

AHH man okay if Caedra wasn't losing her witch sight this event... well, clearly she'll have to run into Atem another time to see him being all Pharaoh-y if that's his true form or your equivalent to it!

Also... holy shit it would be real funny and awkward if she ran into Atem while he was possessing Law, though.

[puzzlingly]

aw, it will have to be another time then

for sure i can make that happen i guess! tho Atem really doesn't like Caedra at all for obvious reasons

[abyssalarcana]

If you think there's no good way to make it happen or that he'd just outright avoid her, that's fine too! I just saw your comments up above there and it sounded pretty funny. I don't blame him for hating her one bit and I definitely realize that even though they've never actually met or spoken it would probably be a very short thread if it happened at all!

[puzzlingly]

oh no, I think it'd be funny, but given the circumstances I think it won't be a merry thread, he'll probably just ruin whatever cr she has with Law if you're up to that

[abyssalarcana]

HMM if it's CR-ruining bad then we'd better not, it's still new and shiny and not ready to break just yet. Oh well! Another time.
