I really like how this idea is growing! Great thoughts, Xian! :)

I think this has potentials. Perhaps not something we would know at once, but perhaps the fae decided to remind the vamps they can still do some heavy damage if of the mind to. In anything like this there would be casualties so who is to say some lesser or rogues were killed off in the process?Xian wrote:I know it started out as a joke (the Fae did it) and I mentioned it my post more as Metaphor, but the more I look at it, from a supernatural standpoint, and a storytelling standpoint, it IS possible that the Fae did it.
So many ideas can come from it - Fae attacking while the floodwaters (which may inexplicably even be Warm) are surging, specially in the areas where the city comes into contact with the wilderness. Like the river area, the edges of the city... and heck, anywhere the possibly supernaturally brought about flooding is passing. XD
But yeah, we can just go run with it. :)
Aye, from what I've read of them (and my own preconceived notions) that sounds like just about the right kind of mischief. Though, what is their stand on humans? I would think they don't really care about them either way - collateral damage. Or the murk where the vampires rise up from. Idk, not sure I've read anything on it.Zodiac wrote:I think this has potentials.

Though I think "fae-infested" could be an easy description for the waters around Harper Rock at any time.Mooncalf wrote:Which gives people enough time to need to find shelter from sudden flood waters after the earthquake, I guess. :) Not much fun being frozen in fae-infested waters, which have swept you down main street, past all the electrical wiring snaking out all over the streets, lol. If the waters freeze during the course of the roleplay (which they might), then that's another reason to maybe not want to venture out into it right away.Doc wrote:And as long as the water is moving.. its not freezing that fast, only after it starts to slow..
If memory serves, the fae have withdrawn to a degree from humanity due to human progress destroying nature and the Earth. The fae are tied into that concept, so while a average human is not as repulsive as a vampire humans represent a collective threat to them, so in something like this yes I could see human losses as acceptable if indeed it is some fae plot to remind everyone who is boss.Xian wrote:
