| ATTACKS ON RO's CONTINUE | ||
| cqmods via consequences | ||
| Reports of another attack began filtering in to the Ministry late last night, creating quite a stir as Hitwizards and other Ministry employees tried to find the victim or victims of the nighttime attack. Unlike previous attacks, Hitwizards were not summoned immediately to the scene, creating much confusion over who was attacked and where. The confusion was solved early this morning when Mrs Narcissa Malfoy contacted the Ministry to officially report the attack. According to official reports, her cousin Regulus Black, RO, was attacked in Diagon Alley last night, just outside Twilfitt and Tattings in Knockturn Alley. According to Mrs Malfoy, an employee of the shop came out to assist her cousin and was injured before both escaped the attackers. We are told by an inside source that the unnamed rescuer is Seamus Finnigan, an employee of Twilfitt and Tattings, although St Mungo’s has no record of Mr Finnigan being admitted for any injuries and the owner of the shop refused to give comment. Unlike the most recent previous attacks, none of the attackers were captured, and a source in the Hitwizard office admits to finding little evidence at the scene. It is of course important to note one obvious difference between this attack and previous ones; Regulus Black is not only an RO but also a former Death Eater. His release from CUSRO and the Ministry of Magic came as much a surprise to most, but rumors swirl that it was Harry Potter himself who advocated his release. Whether the fact of Regulus Black’s former status that contributed to his escaping uninjured from the attacks remains to be seen. A spokesperson for the Ministry of Magic released the following statement in response to the attacks this morning: “As always, the Ministry is working diligently on solving these horrible crimes, on finding the perpetrators and bringing them to justice. In the mean time, we advocate that all ROs either make sure to never go out unaccompanied, or else avoid going out at night entirely, for the purposes of their own safety.” The spokesperson went on to add that the Ministry plans on publishing a special piece shortly featuring safety advice for ROs in the current climate. But is it enough? Many people say no, and some of even advocating a special curfew for ROs to prevent them from going out at night when they seem to be most at danger of being attacked. Another group even suggested that ROs should be kept from Diagon entirely, where many of the attacks are being perpetrated. And of course there remain the opinions of the attackers themselves, who continue to insist that they will not stop their attacks until the ROs are contained within the Ministry of Magic and their rights stripped. With the Ministry appearing to make no advances in the case, it seems as if it is only a matter of time before another RO is attacked. The only question is who, and when? | ||
"Excuse me? I have not had a curfew since I was a kid, and even then I didn't always follow it. Curfew my arse. And I don't think I can be banned from Diagon, either, seeing as how I live here." -Nymphadora Lupin "A special curfew? What the hell. Yes, please, let's start blaming the victims for their situation. Should I, as an Auror, start blaming the wizards and witches who call me to their homes when they've been burgled? 'I'm sorry, but it seems that you OWNED A LOT OF NICE THINGS. How dare you own nice things and then assume no one will attempt to steal them? For shame.'" -Harry Potter "You know what I like most about The Daily Prophet? How their 'serious articles' are often accompanied by a completely inane ad at the end. I'm sure reading about formerly dead people being attacked makes most people crave Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans." -Astoria Greengrass "This state of affairs is unacceptable." -Orion Black | ||

In Southern California, there recently opened a new luxury apartment building. Impeccably designed, impossibly convenient, ideally located, Pax Letale is the sort of residential Shangri La where Southern Californians spend all manner of favors and years trying to secure a spot. But Pax doesn't have a waiting list, nor can a place there be bought or sold. The people who find their way to Pax Letale belong there. Every tenant of Pax is a reincarnated deity whose worshipers are by and large long dead. Once very real, these gods began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. Reborn as mortals, their essences remain, waiting to be awakened. Somehow, sometimes one by one, sometimes in groups or pairs, these creatures of destiny have discovered Pax, and have not been able to resist its pull. For at Pax Letale, the awakening has begun. As these gods rediscover themselves and each other, the seemingly invisible but ubiquitous management tracks each of them quite closely, and the very building itself seems to have an agenda of its own. And as the gods made humans in their own image - or humans made them in theirs - so will the the behavior of the people of Pax turn as dark as their myths. Blood, strife, sex, petty plots, torture - even murder will wind their ways into Pax Letale. A lovely place. A peculiar place. A dangerous place. Enki is the Babylonian god of water, crafts, intelligence and creation. Twin of and best friend of Ereshkigal, goddess of the Underworld, he is often seen as a positive foil to his brother Enlil, utilizing his magic and cunning for the good of others; he brings aid to deities and humans alike, serving as a rare masculine nuturer in a chaotic and often oppressively patriarchal pantheon. He will likely have connections to Tiamat, Ereshkigal, and other Sumero-Babylonian deities. Brighid is the Celtic goddess of the forge, inspiration, compassion and creativity, and a patron goddess of artists, craftsmen, and other creative types. In her mortal life, she may have connections to her parents, her siblings, or any of the Celtic pantheon. Masauwu is a Hopi deity sometimes called the Skeleton Man, Keeper of Fire, Spirit of Death, and the Master of the Fourth (present) World. He is depicted as a dark-skinned man wearing a mask; sometimes the creature beneath this mask is described as handsome, sometimes as a disfigured monster. Connections to Native American deities and gods and goddesses of death or enlightenment are likely. Don't see a tenant that interests you? Other deities and pantheons are welcome - pick one of the active pantheons in the game, or talk to a mod if there's one you don't see, and make your modern god as you see him/her/it. |
