Event Log: End of Arc 2

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters
What: The event log for the End of Arc 2
Where: All over the city
When: November 25th-December 12th
Warnings: A full-scale battle, including character death, NPC death, and various other ways to suffer

It was bound to happen. The Null warned you, after all, and this has been building for awhile - and now it's here. First comes the initial attack, the agents of the Null attacking Hope's temple. Then, an SOS, warning the city of what's happened: a betrayal, and Hope being injured. Luckily for everyone, thanks to the actions of his guards Hope survives the attack. Unluckily, his attacker, the goddess Delight, escapes and lets the Null in.

Flooding into the cave, the Null will attack anyone who they believe is resisting them. They'll destroy buildings and deploy dangerous crowd control weapons, in addition to their sheer strength and speed. Confusion empties the monsters in the tunnels into the city, to help distract the Null. Some gods fight, others provide safe havens, but everyone is in danger.

After about a week and a half of the attack, Fear summons enough power to teleport the city. This stops any new Null from arriving through the tunnels, but the remaining Null must be hunted down and destroyed, or else they'll signal their location to the rest of their species. The danger will lessen as Null are taken out, but things won't really be safe until Fear moves the city again, so don't get too comfortable.

What will you do? Run and hide? Fight? Help the fighters? Turn on the gods yourself? Whatever you do, it's time to make a decision.

[Even hiding, there should have been no escape from a sonic attack. It killed him, but like usual, didn't keep him down very long.]

Yeah, I saw them coming, but I guess I was lucky?

[He looks around to see if the area is clear.]

Are we safe for now? For whatever "safe" means in all this.

[evocation]

Lucky? I don't think surviving that is lucky. More like a miracle, or impossible.

[has_been_faking]

Maybe we shouldn't push whatever luck I'm having here by sticking around. How soon till more show up? We should get out of here.

[Deflection tactic? You bet.]

I've been hiding at the temple, but I came out here to see if I could do... something. [He shrugs.] I'm not a fighter, so I thought maybe I could at least find some stray supplies.

[evocation]

Oh!

[Well, that's a pretty good idea.]

You're not on the list, right? I think the clinic needs whatever they can get.

[has_been_faking]

Nope, not on the list. Not yet, anyway. I figure soon enough and we all will be, right?

[He nods at that.]

Right, the clinic. How're they holding up in all this?
