Welcome to Midland!At the stroke of midnight, residents will abruptly find themselves in their rooms in the castle regardless where they were before, illuminated by torch-and-candle light. The interiors of their quarters are as lavish as ever, but catered to the setting instead of personalized as they had been before. There is no electricity, no hot running water, no more ghosts...
Instead, the halls are filled with the bustle of flesh-and-blood maids and castle staff moving about to cater to the whims of their "esteemed guests," all friendly and polite, eager to please.
Wardrobes are filled with
clothing of the
era, and any wishes for new adornments will be granted - in the fashion of the times, of course! Sorry. If you were hoping for a t-shirt and jeans, you'll simply have to adjust. Wishes for food or other accommodations will be delivered by the hired help instead of poofing into existence, as well - so be nice to those servants, would you? The elevators are now non-existent, and any sign of technology that surpasses the medieval era has been done away with.
On the ground floor, there is a new addition of a throne room - heavily guarded by soldiers who won't respond to prodding or inquiries. Any efforts to infiltrate/spy on/get through this door and into the throne room - regardless your character's powers - seems to be barred by the castle as if there is an invisible barrier surrounding it. Strange, isn't it...?
The town has been similarly changed - the City Royale is now a true, proper castle-town ala the picture above. The denizens seem happy-go-lucky, as if there's cheerful spirit in the air, and it's intoxicating! There's rumors of a festival tomorrow, and all the castle residents are invited. Taverns are abustle with music and dancing, bar wenches getting their bootays slapped by drunk off-duty soldiers and hardworking citizens alike. Any questions about what happened will be met with odd looks - whatever do you mean, Traveler?
This is Wyndym Castle, Midland - and it's
always been this way.
Let's see how long it lasts, shall we?
OOC NOTES: PLEASE READ!- Characters are
NOT DEPOWERED YET. Demon characters will NOT BE NOTICING ANY CHANGES YET - this will occur on Saturday evening, after the surprise event, NOT NOW. There have been NO CHANGES to ANYONE yet!
EXCEPTIONS ARE: robots, cyborgs, or other technologically-inclined creatures, who have been automatically turned human/animal/etc as per the previous posts.
- Technology HAS been depowered/altered to fit the setting. Please consult the prior plot posts if you're confused about what will/won't work!
- Your character has just woken up in their room in the castle! The ghosts are now human servants and will be delivering any wishes to you that you make from the castle, including performing services like cleaning something up for you or mending your clothing. They won't be very talkative, but very friendly and eager to please.
- The
fields are grassy and lush. The wildlife is typical middle age-Europeon - foxes and squirrels and birds and rabbits and deer and wolves in the forests, cattle grazing in farmland a few miles down the road, etc. The tropical paradise is no more for this week.
- This world change only effects up to the Dead Zone, and does not go beyond it.
- If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here!
- Enjoy. ...
OR ELSE.
