Well that was a pleasant read :D

I'll get to start on a post and hopefully have it up soon~

Yeah, I tried to include a backstory of the current political stance in the city. It wasn't too much, I hope. And if anyone is having trouble on what to do, all your characters were sent a personal message (meaning on a personal device, if not, something someone shouldn't have access to) to meet at a specific location for a 'job'. It was probably cryptic and data-fluxed in some way. To avoid detection.

@RyuShura My char's technically an exile due to her mutations, is it kool if she meets/finds them in the zone? Or would her mutations go under radar?

@Excal Yeah, I was planning for her to meet them later on. In fact, we can do a sort of side thing to sort of hint towards oddities in the Zone and introduce another character in the meantime.

@RyuShura Sure! That'd be awesome, hit the scene by me here or in a pm and I'll write it up.

Okay, I'll be brief to get you started. You can fill in the space with whatever else.

The anomalies are getting more frequent and the fauna have begun to become frantic around a certain area in the Eclipse. Remember, these are ruins, so the 'zone' is just one massive building to another. The Magistrates have also shown signs towards the area, sending in larger walkers and armed forces. Your character might even hear combat of sorts, but because of the quarantine sectors, they have been unable to get close enough to tell.

That's been happening for the past few weeks. Today, at least earlier than the events happening with the main cast, you got a weird request from someone to guide them. A message to meet at a place rather close to the walls.

I don't know how your character exactly presents themselves or shows sign of opening guiding services, but I'll leave it to you.

@RyuShura The Magistratum have quarantine zones in the Eclipse Zone? I thought the whole place was just considered an off-limits danger region except for Divers?

@Excal The Magistrate may be seen as mainly the 'militant peacekeeping force' of the city, but they are also the most geared in terms of raw manpower. So sometimes they act in the best interest of the city first and unveil their motives later on. But they've been quiet so far. And it's not like they push all the responsibility on the hired divers under their payroll. While they share a mutual 'give and take' relationship, they would not consider a Diver nearly the same prestige as a Magistrate soldier. For greater, more prestigious projects, they would never resort to outsourced hands. These quarantine zones are nothing new though. There have been attempts by the 'Recreation' initiative to restore pockets of life in the Eclipse across the years, with the Magistratum dealing with the security. Though with meager success. Often, the research compounds are left abandoned. All the precious technology already uprooted and hauled back to Reclaimed Terra.

But, from the eyes of someone who lives out there. For them to move with such force and outward aggression, something strange is definitely going on here.

Woo! IC post!

I'll aim to have something up tomorrow or Wednesday.

Whew, that took longer than I wanted because I'm a lazy butt but I finally got out a post.

@RyuShura
did you ever say what happened to site 26 or am I just blind cuse I cant find it.

... im also working up a post.

@ReusableSword It's quite easy to miss, but it's right in the beginning of the OP. The 'Priority Notice' bit should explain pretty much what is common knowledge regarding the incident.

@RyuShura Also working on post, may be long, and... not entirely what you expected, but hopefully you like!

@RyuShura Done!

@Excal
that was a good read

Got my post up, very excited to get the ball rollin' with you guys.

@Excal

So little love for her metallic brethren.

Cecil might get a little upset that Freya does mean things to the cute robos. She might want to show her why metal is so much better than fleshy bits~

@Rune_Alchemist

It ate her cooking pot >:(

Only Freya gets to eat her cooking pot.

Wait...

@Excal It's good! You have yet to disappoint me.
Now, if only I can do the same...

Anyway, the ball has been set. And by 'ball', we're talking a highly volatile coalescent of dark matter. Now to watch it roll off and hopefully not destroy everything in sight.

@RyuShura You don't disappoint what're ya talking about XD. I love yer world!

Wait, what dark matter O_O.
