RUH ROH

WHO: Everyone
WHERE: The Pasture
WHEN: Day 51, Morning

[GOOOOOD MORNING. It's still a bit chilly out, despite it being sunny, and there's still flurries here and there. All fairly normal and pleasant. Maybe you're out stretching, or collecting the morning milk delivery, or tending to your gardens and sheep. All is peaceful and quiet in the serene pasture.

Until, from the mist, something zips out. An arrow of sorts. It shoots through the air at lightning speed, its target suddenly obvious as it strikes a large landmark in the center of town--the eye of the fountain.

If you weren't awake already, the sudden painful howl from death might do the trick.

Its wail doesn't last, but the eye IS open now. . .by force? The eye seems to be being held open by strange, smokey claws. They are semi tangible, but probably you don't want to touch them.

But wait, that's not all! The ground rumbles a bit before settling? A minor quake? Who knows. But more importantly, in both the pasture within the fence and the meadow, strange mushrooms begin to pop up. Occasionally they shoot out pollen and spores, and drift through the air. They can be picked, but after a few hours, two seem to grow back in their place, so be careful with that.

DANG WONDER WHAT ALL IS GOING ON--oh hey there's Blossom? She's carrying a small basket of biscuits in her mouth along with. . .Bluebell's Shepherd Staff? wuh oh.]


Every~thing is gonna be okay~

. . .

[stares at the mushroom and the eye and]

WHAT IS HAPPENING???



[NOTES:
MUSHROOMS
If you get hit by by the spores, one of three effects are available:
-Level 1, minor effect - No outward effects but plagued with horrible, realistic nightmares to the point of preferring to try to stay awake
-Level 2, Fear Hallucinations; you suddenly see hallucinations of things you fear
-Level 3, Intense feelings of hatred for any particular person suddenly come to the surface/take over, making you prone to violence

Additionally If anyone eats, licks, or otherwise deliberately excessively inhales mushroom spores, let me know *immediately* as it will trigger something unskippable for you. ETA N/M THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS LMAO

Note that these can be avoided by just saying whoops ur character didn't get close to one golly. These effects can lessen over time at your convenience but won't disappear completely until you cure them--how? That's up to yall! MAKE UP A FEAR ANTIDOTE. Ping me if your character tries something and I will yay or nay it.

There is ALSO a source of the mushrooms, but to find it, Stuff will need to happen.

THE EYE
If you try to touch the creepy mist hands, you will instantly pass out unconscious, feel zapped, or feel your heart skip a beat. Don't push your luck for now, but they CAN be removed. How again? Characters will have to make up a way ICly; though in this case a solution won't be approved til oocly after the 15th.

He ate a nightmareshroom!!! Those put their prey to sleep, and then devour them from inside their dreams. . .it doesn't matter if it's a good dream or a bad dream, if you don't go in there and wake him up, he'll die eventually!!

When his dream is reaching its peak, a little cloud should form over his head. That's your cue to use astral projection!! You can jump in to try and wake him up. He won't wake up from the outside.

If you manage to wake him up, me or Coco or any other priest can pull you guys out then.

[ . . . Oh no. Lady Death.

Glaring at the essence surrounding her he reaches behind him and swings his bow from across his back and then pulls out an arrow tipped with sunflower oil.]

Mistreating a lady makes you the absolute worst.

Don't eat the mushrooms.

Since even normal mushrooms can be naturally poisonous I don't feel like I have to say this but seriously, do not.

If you're hungry I will cook for you.

nothing happens tho.

[ CUBECALL to all of Clover! ]

I really don't think I need to say this, but don't eat the weird mushrooms outside. Don't even go near them if you can help it.

If you see anyone randomly asleep outside, tell me immediately. Or their Shepherd, I guess. Apparently these stupid things put you to sleep in order to feed off of your dreams. And then kill you. So we'd need to wake them up quickly.
