IMPORTANT: NS 63 Mission-Failure Consequence

Hi, everyone!

Last Nightshift's mission was a failure, which means another mission-failure consequence.

As most of you are aware, the patients spent their evening parked along the side of the road leading to the institute while staff tried to make repairs to Bus 3. Now that the sun has set, several of the nurses have transformed into their monster counterparts and are eager to attack other patients. For the record, there are 1 monster nurse per bus.

Second, with so much fresh meat concentrated in one area, it's no surprise that aquilas are going to be on the hunt. Due to the unusual circumstances and the opportunity for a lot of virgin-eating fun, we're allowing all players the option to NPC their own aquilas. For easy reference, here is the aquila description from [personal profile] damned_monsters:

Aquila: Twice the size of a full grown man, these giant birds resemble eagles. But their feathers are mottled grey and black, sickly and ragged. Their claws end in wicked talons, silver and cruel. Their beaks are silver as well, curved to a deadly looking point. Its wings are strong enough that a good blow from one could break a bone or knock a human unconscious. These monsters nest on the roof of the hospital and prefer pure flesh for their meals.


As usual, please don't godmode or give your character any unfair advantages. We're trusting you guys with this! But if we see your character punching three aquilas in the face at once, we're going to have to say something, and we might hesitate to put together this kind of event in the future.

Please note that if you're wanting your character to earn pins from a monster fight, you will still need to make the apporpriate request to an NPC moderator.

Last, but not least: Landel has arranged a surprise for whoever manages to bust their way back into the Entry Room first. If your character/group is about to make a post for the Entry Room, make sure to contact us first! We'll put up the top post for the Entry Room and let you guys handle things from there!

And that should be it for now! We're going to put up an alerts post for all 3 buses so players will be able to better coordinate and have their characters react to what's going on around them, so keep an eye out for that.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know! Thank you!

So is this replacing NS? I'm confused. I was on hiatus for these last two shifts, so I'll probably just extend through to DS if it is.

Okay. So do we just pick a bus if we didn't post previously?

Yes, quite possibly.

This is just pure curiosity, but which part is the actual mission failure consequence? :O

OH RIGHT, I did have another more relevant question to ask. The characters who stayed behind at the hospital instead of going on the trip can just start nightshift normally, right?

Ohhh, so it's all part of the consequence. HAHA, THAT'S KIND OF CREEPY, it's like Landel knew all along they were going to dick around with the bus... DX DUDE, QUIT TROLLING THE PATIENTS.

And I... realize I have yet another question. What happens to the characters' purchases if they decide to abandon them on the buses? Since running around with shopping bags is kind of impractical. Does that mean those items are lost forever, or will they show up in their rooms later?

Since this NS is kind of unusual, lost items will show up in their possessions boxes later!
idolism: (fan service; love you long time)

[personal profile] idolism 2012-05-07 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, good to know! I'm glad they actually get to keep that stuff... Thanks, man!

Just a quick question on behalf of the two new characters intro-ing tonight! Will they find anything out of the ordinary in the institute tonight, or would anything like that not be triggered until a bus patient group makes it back?
stop_the_rain: (days gone by)

[personal profile] stop_the_rain 2012-05-06 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Sweet, thank you!

A question; I've gone on hiatus until next DS so unfortunately I'll miss out on this awesomeness. However, I did post my character to Doyleton earlier this DS, so uh...how should I handwave this when I start posting next DS?
atrabilis: (still.)

[personal profile] atrabilis 2012-05-10 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Aww, though let's see. Personally, I'd probably say something like he blacked out at the start of NS, either right after or before the nightly transformations. Something like that?

[personal profile] unpriest 2012-05-10 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Blacking out right after the nightly transformations sounds good to me. Thanks!
