NEWS POST; EVENT POST
It's 12:00 in the damned morning and it's time for the news!
In a rousing event at the Dark Assembly today, the Succubus Party--headed by the aptly named Senator Sexy--passed an unanticipated bill today, the effects of which will likely be felt throughout the Netherworld for much time to come.
Or for a week, since that's how long it's lasting.
The motivations of the Succubus party and the reasoning behind the bill have not been disclosed, but the bill is apparently related to the human holiday of 'Saint Valentine's Day'. Some day about celebrating love and that crap. I would have thought stupid holidays like that would have died off with the enslavement of the human world, but apparently not. Who knew?
I won't even begin to get into the philosophical and metaphorical questions related to the idea of demons celebrating a holiday based around a human saint. I'm here to bring the news to you, not to make it make sense.
We are still attempting to figure out just what the bill '[Make Everyone Lovey]' entails, but the only information we currently has is this quote from Senator Trap:
"Thankfully, we came to a compromise with the Succubus Party. The original bill involved everyone being nude for the duration of the bill's effect, but we--and when I say 'we' I mean 'I'--managed to get them to drop that clause. You idiots owe me."
While this statement is not informative whatsoever, it at least gives us a general idea of just how terrified we should be. The Terror Level is now 'Salmon Pink'. This is what we get for hiring Prism Violet to design the system.
We will not be bothering keep you updated concerning the effects since, for better or for worse, you viewers will be experiencing it first hand. I, meanwhile, will be in the news station's bomb shelter for the next week.
Now, over to Plenair, who--being the Dark Assembly's secretary--may have some information regarding this bill.
...If she weren't currently being swarmed by legions of hormonal fans. Ha! She shot one. Ahahaha, oh, Plenair.
[Out-Of-Character Event Information]
To celebrate Valentines Day while at the same time making a horrible mockery of it, Netherworld_RPG is happy to introduce its first real event. The event will go as follows:
♥ From the time this is posted to 11:59 PM EST February 21st, every journal post will have a chance of being randomly selected.
♥ If selected, the character having made the post will 'fall in love' with the first character of whatever preferred gender (obviously up to the player's discretion) they lay eyes on.
♥ If selected, the effect will last from the point they are selected to the end of the event itself.
♥ If selected, feel free to play the 'love' in any way you wish: have your character behave however they would if they were genuinely in love or have them become obsessive stalkers incapable of controlling their emotions and/or hormones. Do whatever you'd like. Complete freedom here, but please try to keep everything tasteful.
♥ How will the characters be infected? There will be Prinnies in cupid outfits going around shooting the targets, er, characters with magical arrows. Characters may notice them running around. However, characters chosen are incapable of avoiding the arrows.
♥ The arrows don't cause any pain or wounds at all. They'll disappear immediately upon hitting their target. Characters will likely feel the strike as a strong but short-lasting pinch.
♥ If you have any questions, just reply to this post with them and we'll respond.
