Time for another event in Grey Haven! The town has been plastered with posters for a good week, but now that the Gehenna Music Festival is officially starting? It looked very much like an ad company has swept through the town and drenched the place. There are banners on every lamppost, a flyer in every nook and cranny, and every hotel, bed and breakfast, lodge and resort are booked to the rafters. While the normal residents are just annoyed, the supernatural residents are wary: it's the first vampire summit in two decades, and after how badly things went last year, folks are just hoping to make it through unscathed.

Those in the vampire community (or with access to intel about the vampire community, like the Hunters) know that Vampire Queen Matilda Praetorian will be making her big speech tomorrow night, and everyone is abuzz with gossip about her passing the torch to her spoiled childe, Audrey Spencer. Not everyone is very thrilled with this idea, but nobody is going to argue with one of the two oldest vampires in existence. And that's where the even more worrying rumours come in: Vampire King Hiram Praetorian, Matilda's estranged brother, has made his return and intends to attend the summit.

So! There's a lot going on, and lots for you guys to play around with! Both Hiram and Matilda will be spending today/tonight just stalking around town as NPCs, which means they're both available for your characters to bump into. There's another shady character or two floating around, but for now, they're laying low...

You can use this post to discuss what you'd like to do with this event, and PLEASE let the mods know which NPCs you'd like to interact with!

( What Kelly's Chars are up to while she is NPCing her brains out: )

Just a quick FYI and a little teaser. Isaac and Elisa Smith, NPCs turned PCs, are going back to being NPCs for the foreseeable future. They're still available for new AND current characters to interact with, and they've been added to the NPC page, but they have been removed from the character page as they are no longer PCs. Don't be alarmed! Everything is as it should be.

And as for a teaser, the next big game plot will be introduced very soon, and it will involve VAMPIRES! OoOOoOOo! Keep your eyes peeled for more information in the near future, and maybe start thinking about how your character might react if a whole shitload of vampires turned up and starting shitting up their quiet little town.
