[Looks like it's time for your friendly neighborhood Imago representative to make an appearance again, though this time around, he sounds a little less ... cordial, despite it being Christmas. Or maybe that's exactly the reason.]
I apologize for having to make this announcement today, when all of us are looking forward to the holidays and a few tranquil hours spent with friends and family; remembering and honoring traditions of the olden days. Certainly the past few weeks have been stressful enough... [He pauses. Maaaybe not the right choice of words, right now. He might as well just get straight to the point.]
However. It pains me to say that, due to recent events and criminal activities on a large scale, which are now proven to have been carried out by Zarathustra and will not be tolerated, the decision was made to immediately call in the majority of ACRO officers in order to patrol the city for leads regarding any person that has gone missing the past few days. This order comes directly from the Imago and overrules any other objective you may have been given. It is our top priority to ensure the well-being of our citizens and prevent that any further harm come to them, especially at a time like this. I kindly ask for everyone's understanding and cooperation in this matter.
That will be all.
[ooc: Over the course of the next few days, men in riot gear and gas masks will patrol the city ignoring their alleged protocol in the matter. They will forcibly enter homes and apartments, will search through belongings, and will even accost characters who refuse to cooperate or simply give them a hard time (they're quite pissed to have to work on their days off, you see). This progresses throughout the week. Feel free to get creative here and take control of ACRO NPCs yourself, or if your character is ACRO affiliated themselves, have them adhere to protocol, scold their colleagues, rebel against their superiors...whatever you like.
Additionally, since ACRO will be busy with seeking out Zarathustra, criminal activity overall may increase. Expect a lot of thievery.]
