Were Rampage?

Well guys... I have some bad news. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a were on a complete and total rampage outside of the full or new moon, but today as I was on my way to pick some herbs from the forest I had the pleasure of seeing a full fledged werelion on what I could only assume was an absolutely killing spree. 

Truth be told... It was painful to watch. There was something in that poor beast’s eyes; call it my witch’s intuition, but I could tell he was hurting. This last week has been hard on the supernatural population, and I assume that lion was somehow affected.

It was... right after her execution, after all. 

None the less, I can’t say I’ve seen many like him before. That coloration was off, that I know, but usually weres are characterized by being hard to read when rampaging. Then again, I’ve been around far more supernaturals now. Perhaps I’m just getting better at reading them?

I knew better than to try to follow him. I may be able to handle myself, but I have no desire to kill a were who’s suffering. He deserves to go to that forest and get some rest. My herbs can wait for another day.

However, I have decided it’s best to inform Benvolio. If nothing else, he can clean up should something go wrong. He is, after all, the one with the were expertise. I’m just a witch who knows rather well how to make something stop, but probably not in a safe way. 

Benvolio should be able to handle it safely if necessary. I believe there were others though... Other weres. Maybe a pack? Hopefully they’ll all be alright.

It saddens me so greatly to see this sort of thing. Hopefully we can do something... Anything soon.

He fidgets impatiently as time feels it like drones on forever. Hoseok picked up an early shift at the cafe`, looking forward to getting off early for once. He had been working nights shifts for the past couple months now so today was a treat (at least that’s how he saw it). 

The last five minutes dragged out for what seemed an eternity, the fox growing more impatient as each second ticked by. This had to have been the longest, if not most boring shift of his life. And he just wanted it to be over with. As soon as the clock struck 2:00 pm, he dashed towards the back part of the cafe`, making a break for it before anyone could ask him to stay later, or engage him in conversation. He just wanted out, and out was what he got. 

A wave of relief washed over him after taking that first step outside.  An urge to shift into fox form and stretch his legs for a bit tempted him. However, more people would be out, at this time of day at least, and he didn’t feel like drawing much attention to himself. He sheds his work uniform quickly, shoving it into the charcoal backpack he usually carries, and starts to walk away. 

What to do next was the big question. 

Several ideas popped in his head as what he should do, but the grumbling of his stomach made the decision final. And he had the perfect restaurant in mind. Hoseok’s heart raced in excitement as he walked quickly towards his destination. It had been a couple weeks at the most since he last visited, something he hopes to make up for by coming by today. 

Thankfully the cafe` and restaurant were only a couple of block away from each other, so the fox made it there in record timing. He was a familiar face in the establishment, the hostess rolling her eyes playfully as soon as Hoseok walked through the door. 

‘You’re here to see him, I presume?’

She asks, knowing Hoseok all too well. While seeing Cris was the main reason of him frequenting here, the thought of food did sound nice as well. He nods, flashing her a shy smile as she vanishes to go fetch Cris.

EXPOSURE: EVENT WRAPUP

The city is quieted---but not at all silenced.

A speech takes place early in the morning, but the recording of it plays on news coverage sites throughout the day. The mayor’s words are careful yet quelling---a call for the streets to settle into peace, and a plea of trust to be given to the government despite the recent reveals. Not all heed his statement.

Militia intervention sees the end of the riots, putting out the fire of the city’s disrest before even more damage could be done---but protests and strikes still reign in the heart of Sunseong, monitored by watchful eyes and lowered tolerance for anarchy. Even DSEM is under the pressure of avoiding taking action in ways that may incite further mass disorder or outrage---the orders come from the top and spread downwards, so that all employees may know. The upset that had turned the worst of the recent happenings on its head is settled down---by force, for the sake of keeping peace---but for those who have seen it all as more than just a fad, there remains work to be done.

Activists for supernatural rights have risen, seeking to gather others to join their cause. Talks concerning the trials of those arrested in light of their reveal occupy many news outlets, with frequent updates and sparks of debate spreading around. Public figures, political leaders, and citizens alike concern themselves over whether the arrests were “just” or if they were “necessary”; no side’s argument is without its flaws, and no side is determined to be right. The case of the Chaos Controller is brought up as a point of focus and sometimes even used as proof or an example; many remain concerned over the actions that were taken, but an equal amount of others still declare it a worthwhile decision.

The discourse continues---in public viewing and behind the scenes alike. A mandatory amplified security bill, proposed by a figurehead of DSEM months prior, has been pushed into more discussion behind the scenes as local legislators debate the potential breach of privacy of many versus the benefit of increased safety for all citizens. A number of businesses are taking it upon themselves to issue random employee evaluations, some with the intent of finding, catching, and outing anyone they may discover as supernatural. Others simply wish to uphold integrity within their business, striving to be sure that misdeeds are not being conducted under their name, supernatural or otherwise.

Sunseong Central Hospital---in which the named vampire doctor had been employed---is currently under thorough investigation, with each employee undergoing post-employment background checks; strikes have been occurring near daily. Suichen’s company, Honey Entertainment, has issued an official statement regarding his arrest. Despite their claim to be uninvolved and unsupportive of Suichen’s actions, the company has come under fire---the idol’s name is much too grand for such a thing to go unaccounted for, and netizens are as unabashed to state their opinions as ever. The future of the company as it stands is unknown.

DSEM, having been ultimately unsuccessful in their search for those behind the Conspiracy City blog, have seen an influx in traffic from those claiming to have information on those that may be determined as being supernatural. A number of these calls have been confirmed to be pranks, and another measure of such being nothing more than heightened paranoia of citizens---increases in overtime and decreases in cases that most hunters deem worthwhile have been observed throughout the organization. Rumors of unrest and irritation growing amongst those with higher positions within DSEM spread amongst those who take the field work.

Members of Aequitas, some of which seem louder than others, are striving to follow the will of the Mayor, keeping the peace on both sides of the conflict. Asking one member may lead to the opinion that there are less cases of rogue and vicious outbreaks than before, while another may be all too willing to claim that there are more. It may not be the same in terms of increased workload, but there’s no doubt that they are equally busy in trying to keep the city safe.

The Conspiracy City bloggers have gone into hiding in the wake of their moment of fame---or so some think. The blog itself remains active, if a bit quieter, though the identities of its owners remain unknown. There’s no doubt about it, however: they are still the eyes and ears of Sunseong, and they are always watching.

OBSCURA EVENT ONE: CLOSE

                     THE STORMCLOUDS CLEAR AND THE SUN SHINES THROUGH.                                        ( but this quiet can be nothing but temporary. )

As morning breaks marking the end of two dark weeks, the streets of Sunseong are oddly quiet. Wind still rustles flyers speaking of the Chaos Controller’s destruction down the streets, but these flyers have grown dirty and sun-bleached. No bodies are discovered out on display, and no screams were heard in the late nights. For the moment, the Chaos Controller and her minions appear to have fallen back. Sunseong’s streets are, at least for now, safe at night once more -- or at least as safe as they ever have been, with the conflict ever-boiling beneath its skin having only briefly reached a head.

And indeed, Sunseong is shaken to its core. Debates flood the news and a number of popular blogs, impossible to simply turn a blind eye to as most people once did. Riots and protests flare up at every turn, sometimes as often as daily, causing yet more disarray and discord. The Chaos Controller has left her mark on the people of Sunseong. The damage is far from repaired yet -- and experts say the situation is far from resolved, with investigations still underway to uproot the matter at its core and prevent such terror from coming again.

Supernatural relations are on thin ice, perhaps moreso than they have been before. Many human leaders have begun to more silently side with the Chaos controller’s ideals -- some even more vocally proclaiming that October will not come again. Even some mundane citizens often seem to think that perhaps their city would be safer with the “supernatural menace” eliminated. The Chaos Controller would have never attacked if they weren’t around in the first place, right? And even if her target was supernaturals, how many humans had to be caught in the crossfire for her goal to come to fruition?

But in a brighter twist, the disaster has sparked discussion. With the protests has come a great deal of activists pushing for supernatural rights -- people who want to protect supernaturals from these sorts of horrors, and who see the threat as a factor of negligent surveillance more than simply supernatural nature. Some political figures have stepped forward as the head for these movements, claiming that humans are humans regardless of their magical alignment. Many heated discussion are thrown around on various pro-supernatural news sites and channels; media from around the world is turning its eyes toward Sunseong.

The makings of a change are certainly here -- but no one can see yet what form it will take when the storm finally settles.

Thank you for participating in our first event, EXHIBITION: CHAOS! We hope you enjoyed this event, and we hope you will also enjoy future ones to come!

A citizen of Sunseong, CHRISTIAN YU, is currently seeking a connection in the form of PRIDE/PACK MEMBERS. Please read on for more information, and contact them at @obscris​ if you’d like to plot to fill this connection!

NAME: If part of the werelion pride, Yu would be a cool way to go. If not, feel free to switch it up. as far as the pack members, doesn’t matter!

AGE: no preference 

GENDER: no preference 

SPECIES: werelions for the Pride, although some accepted humans with dramatic backstories would be cool. And various were-animals for the pack.

CONNECTION DESCRIPTION: theres some tibits on the yu pride on my page but as a quick rundown, they are a long standing family of werelions under the yu name with ties to the queen in the past and current ties to the aequitas guild. they see themselves as noble weres and believe in the pride above all other things. so it would be interesting to explore that with other werelions in here! maybe some angst, some family love, you name it! as far as the pack members, cris is trying to start his own mixed pack of weres (disapproved by his family of course), rooted by his fascination and willingness to learn of other were creatures. its called the monsta pack and its going to be kind of loosely structured, so there’s no worries of like alpha or power trips, just people doing what they do.   

OTHER INFO: feel free to message me with any questions or concerns or anything like that, I love to bounce ideas with people. as far as faceclaims go, go crazy! I can be reached by either tumblr im (obscris), peach (papisuave) or aim (minoniko) [but do people still use that?]
