mod: event

Now it's raining more than ever - an event post!
Hello Marina. Remember those occasional showers we've been experiencing throughout this dayweek? Well, they're not stopping. At all. If anything the rain will keep on pouring well into morning of Day 327. The ground will be soft and muddy, puddles puddling all over the prison, trees and awnings dripping with the downpour... and still it won't stop.

Hope you can swim, Marinanites.

Wait, what's happening?

We're having ourselves a flooding of the rapidly increasing kind. Unlike previous floodings this one won't just result in some water damage and the occasional cold — no, this one isn't stopping. Bring out the canoes, unhook the doors from the walls, get your snorkel ready. The water will continue to steadily rise throughout the dayweek of 327, stopping just short of the Dome's ceiling come midnight. Yes, this includes the floating island. Don't get stuck there.

What if my character can't swim?

Find a floating device or, if you want to be morbid, remember that death is no longer permanent and bring on the horrifying experiences.

Opt out?

Since this is a dome-wide event, it's a tricky one to opt out of but if you're unwilling or unable to participate in the event, you can always assume that your character got through it without trouble. There's plenty of things that can be used as a raft. Maybe they found a canoe in the sports section of Bullseye?

How does this end?

Happily. By daypost on the morning of 238, all the water will be gone, everyone will wake up back in their own beds safe, sound and dry. No water damage, although you may detect more humidity in the air than normal. Perhaps the grassy areas are still a little soggy. There's no real harm done, though. Unless you drowned. That would leave some scars as well as a punishment.

Questions? Concerns?

Ask them here!

Lyle: Going to make the wild assumption that he can at least tread water at least for a while. In the end he might be the one using an inflatable pool and trying to figure out how to bale it out. The haros can apparently float so people can randomly encounter them floating around.

Michiru: She can swim... oh boy can she swim. She'll probably be out trying to help people to safety and perhaps trying to use her powers if it somehow helps. Naiad the eevee will probably sitting on an overturned table and floating around the dome not far from Michiru.

Mgann: Will probably be in her mermaid form as long as she can before she has to find a place to rest. She'll be trying to help people.

Trowa: He'll be building a second ark? No really, he'll probably be putting together doors from his apartment and any vacant apartments to make a raft, probably absconding with a tent if he can find one. He'll let people on it of course. Of course, if you have a door or two you are willing to donate to the cause all the better.

Carl: Will be doing something? Besides trying to keep his kitten from getting trapped.

	I know. Poor little thing, floating around on a table getting wet... though if Michiru has time, she might make it like a little house boat kind of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There are probably canoes in the Sector 1 sports center, so I was about to suggest that.....but somehow I doubt it's very smart to head to the area of the dome where large bodies of water are normal during this time. :/ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah... probably not the best idea to go towards water, but Michiru can probably get it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
