WHO: ALL
WHERE: THE PASTURE
WHEN: Day 60, Morning

[GOOOOOD MORNING it's been a nice few days, and it's even starting to warm up slightly--oh, wait, never mind. Thick black clouds gather in the sky, and there's a rumbling thunder, with stray lightning bolts here and there. The rain alternates between freezing cold but sparse and just sheets of downpour.

Well if you're determined enough you can still go about your business! Though looking out your window you might catch Blossom running back and forth to SOMEWHERE and also....a tree suddenly in the middle of the pasture. Nothing notable about it for now though.

Anyway how yall doing.

THIS IS A PRE-GAME MINGLE, feel free to chat or go about your day til start time (8PM EST) | RULES | ROOMS | RESULTS ]

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.

WHEN: Day 37 Morning thru whatever!

[GOOD MORNING this is a mingle for those not chasing around daffosheep. How are you today in the pasture!!

Also, at some point in the morning, there is a big storm. lightning and thunder and all that shit, it's oddly strong. Maybe Angel Devil gets zapped by lightning who knows. If he does he's fine. Maybe it just strikes near him. Either way, DEAL DONE.

But just as quickly as it rolls through, it's gone, with the sun quickly drying everything, so it's nice and pleasant before other shenanigans happen later. There's no rain later in the day either.

Continue on, sheep!]

WHO: EVERYONE
WHERE: Pasture or beyond
WHEN: Day 29 - Afternoon into the Evening

[ The day marches on! The mist might not be 'fixed' but that doesn't mean anyone should stop living. Go forth! Explore any of the new buildings you haven't yet, take some memories, and make bad decisions. The world is your oyster!

Maybe there are even a few new (or old) faces lurking about? Say hi! ]

WHO: Anyone
WHERE: Everywhere, but near the Big Fence
WHEN: Just before sunset.

[Life has been SLICING in the pasture, good shit!! It's also been getting a lot warmer. Well, it is summer(?) spring(?) there is no calendar here don't worry about it.

But there is some SIGNFICANT heat coming from a portion of the fence and--oh. oh no. Is that Patches? Is he setting the fence on--yeah he's setting the fence on fire. Is anyone surprised??

As soon as the wood burns away, mist begins pouring into the pasture, forming into foggy, wolf-like beast. It snaps up the first sheep it sees, shaking it like a ragdoll and leaving it a messy pulp before looking for bigger prey.

But that isn't the only issue. More mist is still pouring through the broken fence, but. . .it's not forming wolves. It's just creepily, quickly, spreading across the pasture.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. So anyone who had those friendship stars? They begin to jingle just as the fence breaks. Then they float into the air. . .and shoot off. They're not so fast that you can't follow them, however, and they're heading to outer meadow.

SO WHAT'S HAPPENING?

1) STARS. Wanna ignore this shit and follow your star? Do so here.

2) But for real someone should probably deal with the FENCE and WOLF before Patches lets more murderwolves in.

3) Ain't got time for either of that? Away from the nonsense! Cool! The mist is still creeping about. If you happen to inhale or walk through or otherwise come in contact with the mist, you'll experience on of two effects:
A) Prey - You are suddenly overcome with emotion and extremely clingy. You want someone to comfort you-you might cry on them. You might hug them, begging them to stay with you. You just want someone there with you.

B) Predator - What is this IRRITATION. You're fussy, you're in a sour mood, and you want to know where YOUR PEOPLE ARE. You find yourself being far more protective than normal and snapping at anyone who you deem a threat, or at anyone who doesn't want to be yours.

OR YOU JUST COMPLETELY MISS THIS, IT'S FINE. It's just one wolf! How hard can this be!]

[IT'S A MORNING MINGLE, RISE AND SHINE

Along with your usual delivery of milk, a delightful smell of buttered toast may lure you to the town center. There, Daisy has set out fresh baked bread (???) with fresh butter and jams made from grapes and lemon marmalade. It's not much of a breakfast but it tastes good!

Also Blossom may have done a thing. Did she just prick her arm. Is that a rune on the grass? Is this a blood offering?? Doooon't worry about it!

I mean maybe do worry about the fact that Sugar from Daffodil has been swept away by a bunch of yellow sheep but, it's fine. She'll be fine. Maybe there are new faces around, or you're discovering new creatures, I don't know!!

HOW ARE YOU TODAY]

WHERE: Bluebell Barn
WHEN: Day 7 - Late night. TIME IS FUNKY WHEN DEATH GETS INVOLVED.
WHAT: Conclusion

[Death has given her final answers.

Once she disappears, and the light fades, the crystal flowers dissolve into thing, and everyone is left in the shadow of Bluebell's barn, the moon high in the sky.

There are several people suffering. They may need your help. ]

wooliefrand

WHO: All
WHERE: Bluebell Barn/Adjacent Area
WHEN: Day 7 - Afternoon?
WHAT:

[WELL Bluebell's bodies are...floating in the fountain and/or frozen, but the point is, they being somewhat preserved. Maybe you went about your day, or maybe you're still hanging around the Bluebell barn, trying to figure out what the fuck happened.

Either way, due to an ominous wave of wind, you may be blown there righ tnow!

All of a sudden, the sky darkens, and if you are still in their barn, you may see that the rune is starting to glow again. You only have a second to gawk though, as a massive shadow erupts from the symbol, engulfing the barn, and wilting the surrounding grass and flowers, and probably killing some sheep, too. A giant, single eye sits upon its head(?) and more noticeably, there's a big ass snake coiled around it as well, eyes glowing.

The shadow doesn't speak, but the snake does:]

Death now bends to my will! Show yourself, priestess! Return what was taken! These pawns you summoned will continue to suffer until you do. . .

Death's Eye--smite everyone who stands between me and our goal!

[But. . .the shadow doesn't seem to react--not just yet. The snake sneers, realizing something is off.

It is just a shadow, after all. Not Death herself.

Instead, five flower shaped crystals sprout from the dead ground, and several threads appear, attached to each person present, linking to your team. Eventually you'll be pulled toward your appropriate flower, as a voice finally echos from the shadows:]

Show me your truth, mortal sheep.

[...........Also Blossom seems to be back what up]

WHERE: Bluebell Field
WHEN: Day 7 morning

[It's a loooovely morning in the pasture! Hope you're ready for another uneventful day!

Aside from a light jingly noise coming from Bluebell's barn. It's Stormy! He is rattling Minuet's staff. Wait, where is Bluebell? Their morning milk delivery is still outside too. hm--]

So anyone want to tell me why all of Bluebell is dead?

[oh! that's why. all members of bluebell lay dead on their barn floor. no harm seems to have come to their bodies, though there's traces of blood on their fingertips. Also this sigil on the floor.]

[it's fine.]

WHERE: Center Fountain, then where ever
WHEN: Day 5, morning.

[Good morning!! Some people may be attracted to the sudden burst of sparkly light that comes from town center!!

If you do check it out, you'll find Blossom! Along with some painted instructions on a piece of wood.]

Yes!! Finally a spell gone right! This--this should definitely be of some help! With this, as long as you're not in the forest, it should be pretty easy to keep in touch!

[See OOC Announcements for more info!]

WHO:Everyone
WHERE:Town Center
WHEN: Day 2, Evening

[As soon as the sun sets, all the empty sheep husks suddenly start moving with purpose. It's like a mini, adorably stupid stampede really, as they tumble over each other and on their faces as they move. But more concerning, no matter where you are? You might be pulled along as well.

They're heading toward the center of Woolietown, where Blossom has finished her set up; within a roped off area, there's broken glass scattered about a rune that's been burnt into the grass. It's difficult to see while standing on the grass itself, but from above:

Nothing weird about that!

Blossom stands at the center, waving around a crude shepherd's staff of her own making, tied with multiple bells. She looks like she's chanting, though no words can be heard from her mouth. Once Flocks begin to arrive, she calls out: ]

P-please! Chosen sacrifice, place your blood upon the alter! Once the moon's high enough, we can start! This will definitely work!

[. . .Stormy is sitting at the edge of the circle, arms crossed, as the other sheep watch on.

. . .other brainless sheep are holding trays of wheatgrass shots/smoothies and carrots. Treat, treat yourself?]

[OOC: THINGS WILL BE HAPPENING AT 9PM EST!!! Based on turn in, the alter is here.]

Who: Everyone
Where: The Pasture
When: Day 1, WAKE UP

[WAKEY WAKEY PEOPLE!! Wow, no matter who you are, you feel like you're starting to wake up from a really bad trip! At least the ambience is really peaceful and the grass you're laying in is dewey and sweet smelling? Really, this doesn't seem all that bad.

...at least it wouldn't, if you weren't also probably surrounded by strangers. Characters will find themselves sitting with 5-6 other people; and all but one of you have color coded collars with bells on them. Try as you might, you can't remove them. One member of your group however, will wake up clutching a tall shepherd's staff, with a team colored bell attached to it. There's an innate feeling they should hold on to it.

Maybe you will immediately try to introduce yourself! But, you might find that difficult, as you can't remember your name. Some may have forgotten even more than that. Whoops! Also curiously, if you had any powers prior to coming here? You can't seem to use them at the moment. All your belongings aside from whatever you were last wearing also seem to be missing.

Well. This is a mess. But hey, maybe.............all the dozens and dozens of miniature sheep just STARING at you might be able to help. In particular, a small pink sheep and black ram waddle up, looking a bit alarmed.

And they start talking.]

THIS, THIS IS SO MANY PEOPLE. THIS IS TOO MANY??? I HECKED UP, I HECKED UP--!

Baahaha! It's fiiiine, we just have toss one, right? Shouldn't be too hard.

[And suddenly, you're all struck with a brief bout of silence as they continue to chatter. Well! Maybe listen very carefully to what they have to say.]

[OOC: All supernatural/magic/special abilities (including sheep powers) are sealed until characters go to their respective barns and activate them! If you try to enter a barn that isn't yours right now, your character will be immediately crippled by a massive migraine. Go to your own barn!

DECISIONS will be due no later than Friday May 5th at 9PM EST. Blossom and Stormy will take the answer from each team's Shepherd HERE. Whatever happens will depend on what team ends up chosen!

Otherwise characters are now loose to do whatever! Ping me in discord or on plurk if characters wander into the mist or if you want an npc encounter in the forest! GO FORTH YOU'RE ALL FREE NOW. You can also use this post as a mingle.
