Moon Cycle 31 - August 10 - August 17
❖ MOON CYCLE 31 ❂ 08/10/10 - 08/17/10
Phase: One-quarter waning. As the moon continues to recede, it becomes more noticeably darker, even flickering during the late hours. It will seem to disappear completely before reappearing again with a faint, white glow. The nights grow darker, and there seem to be fewer stars out.
Weather: Despite the fact that it was still summer, a strange chill blows through during the evening and late hours. The mornings and afternoons are comfortably warm, but still oddly cooler than normal. There are also short periods of humidity before nightly showers occur. There are also scattered thunderstorms that happen in random areas and districts of Somarium, and they always occur at 10:00 PM, lasting for about an hour. These storms are even more strange in that it may seem the dark clouds are just staying over one small sector while other parts of the district will be fine before they disappears into the night. The power will flicker but only for a few seconds. It will never go down.
Effects: Characters will find themselves having trouble sleeping, and may even have more bad dreams. Not necessarily nightmares, though those can happen as well. All dreams will emit a strange dark gray colored light. The crystals will also be darkening in color and loose whatever light they may have once held.
Notes: Keep an eye out on the main community, particularly when it comes closer to the weekend. Important posts will pop up that may affect your characters and will help lead into the upcoming New Moon event.
Additional: In regards to new players/characters, the crystals will be found next to their character at any time throughout this week. The crystals are a crystallized form of the character's most important possession. You can read about them here.
Also, new players/characters will be affected, but you are more than welcome to wait a bit until you've become adjusted to the main flow of the game. All of these effects are temporary.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
