The Chant:
A series of small booms, spaced several minutes apart, were heard from the deepest portions of the Slags. The last one was biggest of all, before things went quiet.
The Dark:
A man with a red bandana was seen loitering about shortly before the commotion.

The Chant: Did you hear about that Red Wizard lady? The one wot with the tower in the lady's ward? I hear she ain't red no more but blue!.
The Dark: Yeah, did you also hear that people are saying she ain't worth as much as she used ta be? I hear, something happened to her swags outside of the cage.
The Darkest Dark: Yeah well I heard, shes got a spot in the deadbook reserved for her if she ever goes near that soddin nation of power hungry wizards.

The Chant: Every night a block in the Hive ward hears a Knock in their door but when they open the doors no one is there, all the find is a Basket of bread, dried meat, a Pitcher of Lager and Two Small Tokens on their doorsteps. Each night it is a different block than the night before.
The Dark It is a Grey and White armored figure that is seen wandering the streets, placing the baskets, and then Tokens are those of a Small Red painted Wooden knigth Chess piece, and the other is a small ingraved wooden plate saying ''Every soul deserves harmony''
The Darkest Dark The Armored Figure is clad in markings a bit similiar to that of the harmonium but not quite the same.

The Chant: Recently there have been several grusome beatings in the hive. More so then usual, even some killings as some people state. Though oddly enough there are no ''commoners''among the victims.
The Dark: Several local bad elements have gones missing over the last couple of days. only to appear beaten to a bloody pulp and left in the middle of the streets for all to see come morning. Some of the locals speak of horrified screams down the alleys at night, frightende tales from ruffiens in the taverns about someone called the Grey Knight.
The Darkest Dark: To the Locals they would have seen the figure before, leaving baskets of food and drink at the doorsteps of houses. The Nightly deliveries still occur. Every night. exactly an hour after midnight. One block each night always a different one each night. And after his deliveries were completed, he would simply wander off into the smoggy fog that seeps from the lowerward every night. Often but not always folowed by the screams of the wicked and the corrupt. Bandits, Thugs. Thieves, Burglars and the hands that holds the jinksskirts leashes.

The Chant For a little more than an hour or so, all psions in sigil lost their power... or maybe they didn't. Some might have been sleeping and didn't notice, it may just be a rumor.
The Dark A large number of signers appears to have gathered in the Hall of Speaker. They barred entry and did... whatever signers do when they gather in large numbers.
Bleaker in the gatehouse may have been aware that an alarm sounded, and there was some disturbance in the ward for the criminally insane.
The Darkest Dark Someone's been scheming.
((Some players seemed upset at events in sigil taking their psion powers away... even very very temporarily. They are back, this was a cookie for the rest of the server in attempts to involve them into larger ongoing events. I wouldn't do anything to permanently mess up anyone's characters. Anyway, i know how sensitive people can get over such trivial things in games, so if you want to be the one psion in the city who was inexplicably immune from this very brief psion drain -which ****SPOILER ALERT****, OOC info was orchistrated to suppress the powers of a psion much stronger than any of you are allowed to be - you have my blessing)).

((Part of the issue was really that people really didn't get involved, they just lost power and... well that's that. Then they got it back. They weren't really involved. This seemed like an event made for few, so "involving everyone" when really only giving attention to few may be ill-advised in the future. But cool, I get what you wanted to achieve, it's just probably not the best idea for a server environment. What it gives out is "Here's a cool event, but sorry you can't participate. Also you can't do <thing> either. But now you can again!" Anyway, no sweat, what's done is done. But in future probably best to just involve in private events only the people invited rather than everyone. ;) ))

The veil of the cloaking device that concealed the second spelljammer is down. What was once appeared in illusion as a house by the Brux portal reveals the Nascent Ormralest. Elven ship with long leafy sails. Several beacons across various points flicker betwween orange and red. Even sound of it roaring to life for a moment before everything went still again

(((just want to edit this real quick as I wrote it a bit hastily last night after the event just to try to address anyone who was unhappy with it. Consider the following in addition))).b00seven,Jun 28 2016 wrote: The Chant For a little more than an hour or so, all psions in sigil lost their power... or maybe they didn't.

The Chant Several psions deny having had their power effected. While the overwhelming majority appear to have been affected by some strange power, whatever it was was unstable and several psions were not effected by it (if you want your player to have opted out, feel free to consider your character as having been one of these). Regardless, a trepidation spreads among the psion community at the prospect that their powers could be muted in such a dangerous city.
The Dark (OOC for most, IC if you are in the following factions) A large gathering of Signers met in the Hall of Speakers to pool their ability to influence reality in a 'Think Tank' initiative. The extend of their machinations appear to have affected much of the city, and most of the psions within it, enough to stir a potential ruckus. One can only wonder the purpose of their efforts, and whether or not it was met. ((as a faction, they would likely sneer at independent inquiries, but if anyone wants to try to leverage their faction to pry, I think they should, contact your faction dm and see if he wants to play too. Or not, events -ongoing- will otherwise fade)).
Several Bleakers hear rumors within the gatehouse of yet another breakin and disturbance, in the criminally insane ward nonetheless. There are tales told of a particularly dangerous patient needing to receive aid from specially crafted medical golems.
The Darkest Dark The true motivations for these strange events are open to speculation ((and RP for anyone who wants to pursue things further)).
((anyway, apologies for anyone offended. Indeed everyone should have the right to opt out of any EM's/DM's events. If you want to have been so, work with the above, or play along. Up to you... all in good fun and all ;) ))

The Chant
More than a week passed, but now it is clear to anyone paying due attention: the apathy and tiredness that somehow seemed to be spreading through all the Wards of the Cage for the last months, along with the inexplicable suicides seem to have finally stopped altogether.
Whatever the reason, everything is back to "normal" in the City of Doors...
