The UN-common Cold [devious RP]

[Croconil]

*Phinehas shakes his head.*

This is for greater minds. You might as well give your quest up and accept your fate. Or perhaps beg for mercy from those who are superior.

Rofl Phinehas.

Rejoice, Laanx has heard our prayers! Faith in her greatness will be stronger than before!
...but...wait...
The faith in her will grow? I think some people would profit. There, another peace of the puzzle fits in, the mushrooms. What other choice do people have than praying to Laanx, especially if the mushrooms are out-of-season? Here, we can insert another peace, the immunty of Krans. If you were trying to create a cold, you would try not to be infected. So, we should try looking for a Kran, who is a follower of Laanx. Xillix was one of the first infected, so maybe she knows someone.

[Suno_Regin]

Kran are immune because they're made of silicon >.>

Rocks can't get sick, but if this cold did anything to them, they might mold, at the most. It's just like how they're also immune to magic.

* Peacer wakes up with cold sweat and a banging paini in the back of his head, he takes a hand back there to touch it and shivers as he feels his fingers then looks at them covered a bit with blood, he drinks a potion and leans down under his bed to take forth a little diary.

Hmm i had this weird dream, while hearing rumors about this poet being killed right outside the tavern, a coincidence?

My dream with sitting at this lake in a cave with... a special person got interupted, with a flash i was suddenly on the north wall, above the north gate towards the bronze doors. There are these two men below me outside the gates, deep in the shadows of the night. One is a twisted Klyros with one eye. I can easily feel the poison in his body and the mushrooms in the pockets of his deep cloak.
The other was an elf, same as me, a nolthrir. But strangely people didn't matter that much, the rocks had more to tell. They were both angry and argued with whispers. The Klyros wanted more than the 120 circles the elf brought for payment for an odd thing that i didn't understand. I think it was a cloak, but there were two of them. But it still felt like there were only one to me. How could two things be one? I saw two but felt just one. It was odd.
The elf pulled out ten more circles and threw them on the ground, where two of them rolled under a  rock. The klyros smacked the elf hard on the ankle making him limb, but handed over the two cloaks which was one.  He gathered the eight circles and headed away from the city. The elf sneaked back along the wall where the guards wouldn't see. I didn't wonder more than a moment why he didn't pass the guards as the two circles cried to me not wanting to be lost.
I climb down, pick them up intending to give them to the guards so they could give them back to that elf, although i forgot about that quick too, when the wind found something interesting to talk about. I went back into the city I wonder now, but didn't then, why that elf was looking me over the wall the entire time, although people didn't matter as much to me... they do now though. Strange. Somehow i then remembered the coins again and walked towards Jefreca which i knew could give them back to the elf. I went outside, but a menki was standing in the way, then i woke up, this happened a few moments ago, the back of my head was bleeding from my illness, but i had cold sweat too... Propably a side effect from the vision Untar gave me.

Hmm also heard something with the vespers of laanx, since they were healed, could laanx have something to do with this?

* He  puts the diary under his bed again and lies back again to rest.

come visit me if you want to read this :>
some people know how to get to me and remember, two heads are better than one... that goes for eating too.

Ehem.... it seems that ONLY the Vespers have been 'cured' or at least are no longer sick. It also seems that anyone getting near them still gets sick. No amount of praying to Laanx has cured anyone else...

The cold gets much worse today, and the chest pains are severe at times. Vison will be blurred. These new symptoms appear in all infected people at the exact same time. Any healer will be baffled at the path this sickness has taken, and some are beginning to call it a plague. It is now known that mushrooms are NOT the cure, and their affects are no longer working as well. Mushrooms will only stave off the symptoms for a few hours, rather than days now. Some upstanding citizens (NPCs) have also seemed to come down with the sickness, including Harn. The foul weather seems to be the only thing keeping the plague from spreading so fast, due to people staying indoors away from each other.

The sickness has become very aggressive in it's spread. (shortcut /tell $target (you have to target someone for this to work) [You are exposed to the "UN-common Cold" RP/event. You have a very good chance of getting the sickness. Check the ingame RP forum for details. Please help us find the cure!]


@Thoughtcrime: Unexpected, very. Unplanned, hell no.

@Phinehas: Yes, they are all going to die. Pity. You will no longer have anyone to be superior to.

@Einnol: You must be sicker than you thought, as you only posted -half- of what you saw.... the lesser half.

@Donari Tyndale: Getting warmer....but it seems no one is actually selling mushrooms, and they are no longer working as well as they did. Healers think they will stop working at all very soon, as the virus now seems to target the mushrooms healing power as well.

@Suno: It took this long for someone to make that connection?

@those who question Peacer's post. Yes, I gave him that 'dream', as I have given it to others.

@Peacer: Thanks much. I wonder why you are the only one to repeat the 'dream'. Others have had it. (This is not a clue) :/

@Under the moon: You are evil. Stop making this so hard.

@Under the moon: No. The clues are all there... just that people need to talk to each other to figure them out. And yes, I am evil.

[Xillix Queen of Fools]

Untar speaking from the grave in dreams . . . frightful

Authianilize you are healed you can still help with the rp by tending folks in the temple/ which is now the hospital, if you are sick you should be gathering there before you make others ill, don't make me go out to collect you, sharven's pit is the place to be if coughing and wheezing is your sound!

[DAudioLink]

*Alcarin walks in with he head wrapped an you may notice the all too cute bow tieing it together [He doesn't know it's there though], and he starts to talk with long pauses as if he's strugling to remember...* Um, young girl... Thirteenish.. Ywwn... Freckles, heavy on the freckles... Dark freckles... Milk... [Shorter pause ~5 seconds] Apples! *nods head* Uh, yeah, apples. Uh; I *shakes head*... Different; not rude this time... *Looks like he's remembered something important* Note! Note. Uh; no[te]... Jefecra; Jefecra has... Kly-Klyros! Mushrooms... *Alcarin sits down looking as if he's trying to capture a thousand different thoughts racing about his head and not being successful*

[Phinehas]

@Phinehas: Yes, they are all going to die. Pity. You will no longer have anyone to be superior to.

Then perhaps I will have some peace and quiet to continue my studies.

[Coneitic]

[i was told i stole something from your dead body that has a clue to the plague... does this mean i can spin it around and use it to make the plague worse? i wanna role play this item i supposedly have]

[Under the moon]

Very well, I will PM you with what you have, and what they do. What you do with that info is up to you.

[Croconil]

@Phinehas: Yes, they are all going to die. Pity. You will no longer have anyone to be superior to.

Then perhaps I will have some peace and quiet to continue my studies.

Nope. Im still here and not infected :/

[Gharan]

I have had this cold since it started and have travelled high and low in search of answers.
As of yet i have hit wall after wall often being told to go to the temple were im met by mister nobody.Am i just asking the wrong people?

[Xillix Queen of Fools]

Gharan, much of what you seek is available in the rp section of the forums, as well as the oppourtunity to roleplay this sickness, if you are not at the temple then actively spreading the cold is your next recourse. I am unable to spend time in the temple due to net issues, but if everyone who was sick would spend time there comparing notes  more might come to light. Work together people. Gharan Find Alcarin, peacer and the rest who are still sick.

This sickness is supposed to be massively contagious the more that get it the more minds you have to resolve the problem, Yliakum put away your immunities and have some fun with an elaborate puzzle set up for you by fellow players.

[Gharan]

ok thanks xillix ill see the infected and gather some info

ps i seem to have infected quite a few people 

[Peacer]

* Peacer walks into the tavern as he hears Janeous shout "You are all fools and oawns! You all grasp to the 'good will' of your queen of fools, yet you have shunned me? You are all blind to see that -she- has created this plague? Or have you not wondered why she tells you that you must pray to -her- god to be cured. You are all being used, and you are too stupid to see it! Maybe you all do deserve to die by her hands, or grovel at her feet like the worms you are!"

* Peacer thinks for a moment and runs off to find Janeous thinking Fylork will once again loose his temper
