Starting at about 2 AM Saturday morning, Union was hit by an earthquake (as outlined
here). It wasn't terribly intense, but enough to throw anyone who is on their feet off balance and do some structural damage to a number of towers. Additionally, starting within hours and increasing throughout the day, wild Pokemon in the Old City will start streaming out into Union, fleeing from something. They will be agitated and afraid, but will generally be trying to escape more than fight, although if they perceive they are cornered they will attack.
Additionally, anyone in the Caverns will experience some seismic activity. The unstable ceilings will force them out and there will be some cave-ins that will change the access points to the caverns. Any player plot logs still ongoing in the Caverns may still be completed, and will be assumed to take place before this.
For the duration of this event, all characters will have the ability to bond with one additional Pokemon from the Old City. This will extend to other locations a bit later this week as the event progresses. We will not be running any logs for the extra Pokemon bonding done in this manner, although standard searches will be available.
Please feel free to make posts about fending off or otherwise dealing with the swarming Pokemon, or dealing with repairs around the city. Any questions on details for this event can also be asked here.
Additionally, we have added a
Wild Pokemon Bonding post if you happen to roll an undiscovered Pokemon.
