Who: EVERYONE
What: Somebody's Poisoned the Waterhole!
When: Days 296 - 298 ( July 16 - 21 )
Where: All across the city.
Rating: PG-13. Anything that might go higher than that should be taken to a private log, please!

[ The evening of Day 295 ( July 15 ), characters might go to sleep with a bit of a sore throat or an upset stomach. Something they ate, maybe, or perhaps they're coming down with something. Maybe a glass of water early the next morning will help clear it right up - or make it severely worsen. By the evening of Day 296 ( July 17 ), the poison in the water system will be spread throughout the entire city to affect anyone using the public water supply.

This can manifest however you'd like from wherever you'd like: indigestion from drinking tainted water, burns across your skin from bathing in tainted water, etc. The chemicals the spy dumped were random and imprecise and will affect people in several different ways to varying degrees of severity. Symptoms can take some time to manifest or appear immediately; they can be slightly inconvenient to near-fatal. Whatever you decide, people are getting sick and fast. The hospital and the clinic will have their hands full with trying to find a remedy as conditions spread and worsen through Day 297 ( July 18 - 19 ).

On Day 298 ( July 20 ), Heimdall will address the network with a rune to purify the water system. Travellers will have to help set up the arrays in various places all across the city and work together to activate this massive effort at reversing the spy's damage to the city. At the same time, three Travellers will be going after the spy himself before he can make a break for Utgard. A thread will be set up closed to Thor, Condesce, and Altair for them to play out their pursuit of the spy where everyone can see it. The decision of how to handle him is entirely in their hands, and they will bear the weight of that upon their return.

Everything should be returned to normal by the evening of Day 298 ( July 21 ) as the antidote is delivered across the city and the water system is completely purified. Reparations for the damages are up to you guys, but this event is sure to leave a sour taste in the mouths of many. ]

[ OOC NOTES: Get it? Sour taste? Because poison? Don't ever let me try to be humorous. This is the mingle log for the Somebody's Poisoned the Waterhole! event. A top level comment will be made for each district as well as the hospital, clinic and the closed thread for catching the spy. Please feel free to use these or make your own top levels with [OPEN/CLOSED] along with your time/location in the comment title. Let us know if you have any questions! ]
