Weeks 13-16

[artificial_intelligence]

Welcome to Dragon Season!

You're in for a dangerous and terrifying few weeks, Atlantis. I hope you enjoyed your vacation while it lasted because HERE THERE BE DRAGONS. And he's not the friendly sort our current local dragons happen to be.

Atlantis Weeks 13-16


The Wrath of Olympus
Week 13 - ??
Week 13 has arrived, and with it, a horror is about to be unleashed that will change the face of the island forever. The Bull Dragon (Reign of Fire) that has been sleeping in the base of Mt. Olympus has awoken, and with him, hell on Atlantis has been unleashed. This massive flying beast breathes fire and eats ash. The chemicals it secretes from its mouth ignite on exhale for a powerful flame, and it's skin is like armor. It rules the sky, sees great in the day and even better at night. It only lives to burn.

IF YOU R CHARACTER LIVES IN OURANOS... our apologies. The dragon will be claiming the Ouranos summit as its new home. Ouranos will burn, and nearly everything within that district with it.  If you have questions, or want to know more, make full use of the comment headers below! This is a VERY PLAYER ACTIVE Event. The Dragon WILL be alive and undefeated for the first week, but what happens after that is up to how interactions with fireandash go and where you guys take it. Quinn ( sawthefirst ) and Creedy (whitejediknight ) are familiar with this beast and might be able to offer insight to others. There will be a log for the Dragon that goes up after his awakening in week 13, and a second log in week 14. Feel free to participate in this as much or as little as you like.

OURANOS is also known as the farm district. I.e. it is the source for almost all of Atlantis' non seafood meats and produce and it is being burned to the ground. Not living in Ouranos does not mean your character is unaffected. This event is going to massively change the face of Atlantis AND set back the growing season. Food will be scarce and the Atlanteans will be convinced the wrath of the gods is upon them. Things do not just 'reset' to normal when/if the dragon is killed. This is still a very real problem

Special Attention to this for the following people who live in Ouranos:
The Hale House
Adam and Elisabeth
Creedy and Quinn
William Lawedre
Jefferson and Grace
France
Merlin and Balinor
These residences may be burned to the ground. Unless you wish to opt out.

Week 13: 
4/14 - 4/20
Warm weather and clear, sunny skies with little to no wind

All sun all the time. Sweltering hot heat and 24/7 Sunlight. In addition to making sleep really difficult, a sense of restlessness. If somehow your character does manage to sleep, their sleep will be full of very strange dreams.

5/5 - 5/11
Cool Weather and cloudy skies with fair winds
The temperature will be in the 41-50F ~ 5-10C range and drop to freezing

Sunday will act as a full moon for any affected by that!

Yes but. Where he is from. I mean. LOOK AT HER!

It could possibly be adorable and idek how.

... She has a gun and, given that her morals are low enough to allow genocide to pass... ._. She'd be willing to trade in valuables for weaponry, though.

[herzlich]

Was Killian in on the LET US SAIL OVER THE EDGE OF THE WORLD MISSION? because then, he'd definitely have met James by now. We can handwave him having run into Regina, or we could play something out (with James, too, if you want)!

I enjoy your fandom OC on cray levels and she needs to kick him in the balls. <3

YES TO REGINA AND WHALE i think I owe you a tag on that, ohgod so sorry SHE THINKS HE IS NICE?! IT IS SO WRONG AND I LOVE IT.

[herpetophobic]

YEAH HE WAS TOTALLY THERE I JUST NEVER POSTED. He was glad it wasn't his ship and as soon as they were back on shore he just left without bothering to see if anyone else was ok.

Handwaving is good with me, really, in these cases. He needs to meet them both at some point and he's never going to get over kawaii innocent Regina.

EXCELLENT BECAUSE I WANT THAT TO HAPPEN BADLY. Leave her alone, James, or she will start terrible rumours about you too.

WHALE HASN'T DECIDED HOW TO FEEL ABOUT ANY OF THIS BUT IT'S DEFINITELY INTERESTING.

[herzlich]

NEVER.

... okay, deep down, she does.

... there might be a tiny amount of regret that is very, very tied to the fact that it ruined everything.

[herpetophobic]

JAMES STOP THAT'S GROSS. THERE ARE OTHER WOMEN ON THE ISLAND.

Things would finally make sense for him. He's only seen you evil, Regina.

...well. Perhaps they can come to an agreement.

[herzlich]

Ohgod, that icon. THAT ICON.

He is such a glorious dork. SUCH. A. GLORIOUS. DORK.

[iswimprettygirl]

The best dork around!

[herzlich]

HE HAS A WEAKNESS FOR BLONDES

And she's never seen him at all! ... Though she probably knows James exists? Given that King George's court is kind of what Cora married into... So she basically expects the douche prince and gets a nice one.

MERCENARIES, PIRATES - YOU KNOW IT WORKS.

[iswimprettygirl]

The lesson learned is: Milo is always right, listen to Milo.

Yanno, except for when he's wrong, but we don't pay attention to that.

[herzlich]

JAMES DID THE SAME THING, SO THAT'S GOOD. ... well, 'good'.

Okay, then they totally met! Regina found him suspicious but acceptable. :|a

She can totally start a rumor about how he's super hot. I mean what.

WHALE, DECISIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED, YOU WERE KIND AND SORT OF HELPFUL EVEN THOUGH EVERYTHING WAS TERRIFYING AND WEIRD.

[herzlich]

The thing is, she actually did get that sort of message. "Listen to the humanitarian* and you might not get killed by a mix of your parter-in-crime and yourself".

*except in cases of military strategies, cartography, anything tied to running into giant insect-monsters

[iswimprettygirl]

That is a very good point*.

*Except he was right about the cartography 98%. Just sans the Leviathan being real and that one time he almost lead them in the wrong direction.

[sawthefirst]

Quinn: Will actually be right there when the dragon wakes up. For the second time in his life. Fun way to get introduced to Atlantis, no?

As for Graham and Sebastian I have no solid plans, most likely I'll be too busy to actually play them much when this is going down so I'll assume they get through it all alive through the magic of "because I say so", but if you have ideas or want them for anything do say so.

[gracefulpaige]

THEY ARE MEANT TO BE BROS, CLEARLY. Since then Killian's been on his ship. and in the bar. And looking for interesting things to do and giving no fucks now that it's clear that he can't leave here yet. He wants his revenge, man.

Regina your judgement is poor. There is nothing acceptable about him.

UHHH HOW ABOUT HE'S A TWO PUMP CHUMP AND NOT WORTH ANYONE'S TIME. you'd need a magnifying glass to stand a chance at even finding his weenie. she doesn't know any of this but she would not be above anonymously starting that rumour.

THIS WHOLE PLACE IS TERRIFYING AND WEIRD. HERE, LET HIM PUT HIS ARM AROUND YOUR SHOULDER COMFORTINGLY.

[gracefulpaige]

THERE ARE OTHER BLONDES IN THE CITY. I'd offer one, but apart from Lis the other is 16. sux2bu james

It'll be weird. But he could tell her about things and WOW THEY CAN ACTUALLY HAVE POSITIVE CR? He can't hold her accountable for things she hasn't done yet.

YUP. clearly they need to cause some trouble.

Christine

[animator]

I was a huge failure with activity last month but here's my gang for this round!

Anita Blake (animator) will be around wherever people need, probably helping with triage for anyone who's hurt during the dragon adventure.

Connor (waywardboy) will want to go after the dragon. He's resourceful and good at making inventive weapons out of anything, he can help.

Darla (dearone) will be searching for a cure still and laughing at Angelus.

Emma Swan (cursebreaking) has no solid plans at the moment but will be avoiding Ouranos and extending the olive branch to Jefferson to offer help to both him and Grace when they lose their home.

Graverobber (tostealandrob) is avoiding all dragon shenanigans, thank you, but he'll use the scarcity of food in the coming weeks/months to his advantage somehow. That's what he does.

Jo Harvelle (lightgunhustler) will be sticking close to her mom and Dean during all of this and trying to keep Dean from totally losing his shit.

Raven Darkholme (metamorphosing) will be attached to either Charles or Sam, whoever is closer, and avoiding Ouranos like the plague omg. She'll also be assisting with the recovery effort afterwards.

Severus Snape (masterofpotions) still needs to open up that apothecary, whoops.

Thor Odinson (deemedworthy) is SO THERE to help with dragon things it's not even funny.

Alex and Jaime are finally getting intro'd in the next couple of weeks, probably after dragons!

[diddykins]

Dudley is going to probably hide from the dragon, considering how he has no skills whatsoever to protect him...

Balinor is going to try and stop/talk to the dragon. Haven't figured out yet how to work this... potentially, his powers are significantly less powerful here than they were in Camelot?

But yes. \o/ Wow. I'm still here...

[pendragonlord]

dragons time?

[alwaysimpure]

Diddykins, you would make wonderful bait!

[diddykins]

Yes! ;w; father-son dragons time. He's already so proud of you, now he'll get to see it for himself.

Who cares if their house possibly burns down in the process...

[diddykins]

can we do this? dangle the piggy in front of the big bad dragon?

HE'LL BE YOUR DAMSEL IN DISTRESS...

[alwaysimpure]

Maybe not actually have that be the plan, but I'm so up for that being the result. X)

He'll be your hero, Dudley!

[diddykins]

"Oh god oh god dragon... run run ru-- oh god oh god sirius black... adsflkjwaet"

[alwaysimpure]

Like being between a rock and a hot stone.

Ahaha.

Katana.......now +additional characters

[fallen_angel]

Castiel
- Going to follow the Winchester brothers in whatever they do about this disaster, naturally. He's trying to not be useless without his powers. Also, Gabriel hasn't taken away his April Fools prank yet so he's still going to have giant wings on his back until that happens. How is he supposed to fit in a shower with these, Gabriel... ;;

Spike
- will be hating on the extra sunshine time with all his might, thanks.. and staying the hell away from the dragon. Also, working on lining up a food source since he can't bite people. :|b

Danny [Fenton/Phantom] - He may do something stupid like go try to tell the dragon to stop destroying things. I don't imagine that would turn out well, if not for his ghost powers and being able to turn intangible.
Once it is sweltering out, he could create ice patches around the island with his nifty ice-generating power. It wouldn't last long, but wouldn't it be nice while it did?

Bolt - Still have to introduce this puppy. I'm not sure if during a dragon event is the best time. We will see later on if I'm feeling mean enough to scare the daylights out of him.

Michael - The archangel. He's at least not going to show up while the dragon is un-defeatable. I haven't decided when to intro him yet, but it likely won't be too long.~

I am adding these lovelies to my roster so expect to be seeing them, also:
-Hellboy (from Hellboy) - will want to punch the dragon! This is what he does.
-Peter Petrelli (from Heroes) - will want to make sure people aren't being hurt and sjfddjsf dragon.
-Ezio Auditore (from Assassin's Creed) - will probably be showing up after the dragon....

I am always very open to plots!
