Event Post -- Part One

[All the television screens--regardless of whether they were on or not, much less what channel they were on--flicker and shows the face of everyone's favorite Doctor. The blood-eyed demon grins and waves at the screen. He speaks slowly and with a slightly sweet inflection, as though he were talking to a group of stupid children.]

Hellooooo!

It's come to our favorite Overlord's attention--no, not you three bums; you know who you are--that a few of you aren't playing well with others. I, personally, am appalled! Absolutely, totally appalled. And, more importantly, so is his Omnipotence! In his peerless wisdom, Overlord Baal has given me, Doctor B.T, the pleasure of doling out the punishment. Now, doesn't that sound wonderful? Ah, nothing makes a world work more efficiently than punishing those who just do not know how to function by the rules.

[He takes off his glasses and wipes them, speaking while doing so.] Now, I have been wracking my brain trying to think of a suitable punishment. It occurred to me suddenly that it was all quite simple! If children can not play with their toys properly, then what do you do?

You take them away.

As of now, you may notice a few things missing. No flying, no fancy lasers, and certainly no magic. Nope, none of that! You've all been quite bad boys and girls and you won't get your nice toys back for quite a while. I promise, if you show you're good, you may get them back sooner!

I know. [He puts his glasses back on and flicks his dangling, purple lock of hair.] I am far too kind to be a demon. There is nothing to worry about, though. A little time masquerading as simple little humans will do you all some good.

...Oh! I had almost forgotten, silly me.

The native demons are exempt from this punishment. Have fun with that!

...Hah. WaheheHAHAHAHAHAAHA! Hoho. What a bunch of idiotic lab ra--

[The television flickers back to whatever it had been before, whether a show or a blank screen.]

Event Details

1. Everyone has lost their powers. While their appearances have not changed, they have lost everything--superhuman strength, flight, and magic. Everything. If a regular human in the real world can't do what your character normally can do, they've lost it.
2. Powers work in the Cave of Ordeals. This is mainly because we just implemented the Cave of Ordeals and don't want to suddenly take that away. Powers work only inside and no where else.
3. NPC monsters, demons, and animals are unaffected. See that Catsaber? It can still cut a tree with a fish. See that Generic Warrior? Can chuck cars and boulders like nothing. You? Nope, completely ordinary. Have fun not being pulverized.
4. The characters can't die. They can, however, be punished to the brink of death. They are incapable of dying, however. This is actually a normal rule of the Netherworld which we haven't gotten around to broadcasting.
5. You'll get your powers back! When Baal feels like it.
6. You can thank Revya for this. Yeah. Her fault.

Any questions can be directed to here. Theoretically, you could contact Nethernews in an attempt to beat Doctor B.T.'s face in, but...that may not work.
