Yep. As a Faun, Seawell can create magical effects every time he "plays" music. The instrument or media doesn't matter, but the intent of the song does. He already calmed a riot by playing a John Lennon song- and didn't even notice. But he's unaware of this ability- he thinks he's just a guy with horns and hooves. He's about to learn otherwise. [lol]

Anyway, regarding the coming panic (Note: appropriately enough, the word panic comes from Pan, the goat-man god) your characters may either help contain the chaos, or fall prey to it themselves. Your choice. (Eventually, only deleting the video from Seawell's Utube channel will fix things.)

Awesome. Oh, and I presume you're going to give some description of what is happening at the rehab center opening?

I will indeed. Err, I'm having having some issues with my PC at the moment (I had viruses, I deleted them but I'm re-scanning just to make sure) so this will be delayed a bit.

Edit: OK, looks like my PC is clean. Before I continue tho: I'd like to link to an actual heavy metal video. Any suggestions? (Might also be Punk, or anything else scary.)

Those music videos were random but enjoyable. Uh, any relation to anything? tongue

The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has a rock opera album called "Dreams in the Witch House".

Ehh, any video with people screaming scary things will do. The "actual" video Seawell will put up will use the song but add a collage of monster images.

My apologies for the posting delay. I've been VERY busy these past few days. I'm only now clearing my unexpected workload, and should be posting again in the game soon.

Sorry I haven't posted yet, either. I've been a little bogged down with uni stuff and family medical troubles. tongue

Gonna try and posted asap, though.

I am back!

OK, explanations. Some of you might be aware I had some terrible stuff happen recently ranging from being on a deadline to finish writing a book to losing my darned reading glasses which left me near-sighted for a week! But I'm now back at full strength and ready to pick things up... if anyone is still interested?

Anyway. Quick summary. My character, Seawell the Faun, has accidentally uploaded a video on Utube that, due to being enchanted by his latent musical powers, is causing people across San Lorenzo to panic. This includes the Ceremony at the Center for the Transformed, where founder Barbara Addams is currently located.

Your characters can be affected in many ways: they can panic, or try to help contain the riots, or find their cause (the only way to stop the panic is to erase the video from Utube, something only Seawell currently has access to do. He's not even aware anything is wrong yet!)

I'd appreciate a HEY! I'M STILL IN THE GAME! post here from those who are. smile

I'm still interested but I haven't been posting because of equal parts life interference, and computer problems. On a side note, burnt laptop smells terrible.
