MASS ASSASSINATION

(I am under orders to do this, via an e-mail sent to me prior to the start of the Turn.
After making Rulings concerning the matter, I have decided on what is below.
It is not pleasant. I warned you that Turn 5 was going to be rough.)

While you are all trying to get your treasure back from Festy One, something REALLY BAD happens.

Everywhere, Red Goo erupts from the ground.
Right onto surprised and unprepared people.
Right onto NPCs.

The NPCs slump into Red Goo, then animate like the Red Goo that attacked them, and go on a blinding killing spree.

After said killing spree, the Red Goo falls back into holes in the ground, where secret veins of it had come to the surface, and flows back into those veins.

The NPCs killed this way must be Wished back to life.
Resurrection will not work.

The list of casualties is enormous.

In addition to the NPCs, there are thousands of casualties among the military and civilian population that was close at hand.

Here are the NPC casualties:

Those without NPCs listed also lost people, although some Powers were spared.

 

[Uvenelei]

Zagyg is wished back to life, and the incedent is carefully investigated (for what little it'll be worth).

 

[Edena_of_Neith]

Scrying reveals, as you might have expected, nothing.

However, there is a defense against this attack.

You must stay away from where the veins of Red Goo come up to the surface.

Unfortunately, these veins seem to move around.

Either that, or new veins are constantly appearing in the soil, coming up to the surface.

This is especially true in those nations whose Power has a high Red Goo Ranking.

 

[Mr. Draco]

Kalanyr is requested to ressurect the members of the Union of Oerth that perished due to the Red Goo.

 

[Darkness]

Any foreign cults that spring up are allowed to exist, but discouraged and punished severly for any infraction of the law. If the cults are unlawful in and of themselves, they are shut down.

Loviatar is lawful evil...

IC: All the cults of this new deity (which we see as a mere aspect of Iuz - or possibly an impostor; opinions are divided) will be conveniently relocated to a great temple to Loviatar that will be built by my dao. It's in an easily watched, easily assaulted region in my Baklunish heartlands. Should they as much as try to fortify their position, they will be exterminated at once. Also, we subtly try do discourage the spread of this new cult by having our respectable faiths take better care of dissatisfied youths. And those rich thrill-seekers who would convert to Loviatar are will be subtly nudged towards joining some debauched sects of Olidammara instead.

 

[Uvenelei]

This defense is put to work: Zagyg and my other NPC's will now fly rather than walk.

 

[kaboom]

I'll wish my NPCs back to life.

 

[William Ronald]

Edena;

I use wishes to bring my NPCs back. My forces hit the goo with magical fire.

Also, I send Kas copies of several chess games forwarded from Earth.

 

[Darkness]

Kalanyr is requested to ressurect the members of the Union of Oerth that perished due to the Red Goo.

We want to request the same thing for our losses (if any).
