BOOGEYMEN AND NIGHTMARES EVENT

WHAT?

For the past few weeks, there have been odd rumors circulating through the cities. Rumors of monsters, the likes of which are so terrifying that the stories remain hushed whispers. And now, starting on MARCH 11THand lasting until MARCH 17TH, those monsters are a reality. Only in Everglade and Fayren, thankfully. Horrifying monsters will be prowling these cities during that time, and they seem to target pendent bearers exclusively... Scarier yet, they reflect the personal nightmares of the people that they're stalking!

 
HOW?

Memo's power allows her to turn people's imaginations and memories into reality. While she wanted to create one giant boogeyman based on one rumor, she has accidentally created multiple boogeymen. They gain shape and power from the nightmares of pendent bearers: Some might look like the monsters in the rumors, but others may be personalized by personal fears. Players are free to play their monsters as NPCs, so feel free to use them to add some spice to your characters' life.

 
LIMITATIONS:
  • Boogeymen will only appear in Fayren and Everglade.
  • They cannot kill or permanently maim anyone. Please don't go overboard with injuries!
  • Memo's influence cannot be sensed. The monsters are made of psychic energy from their targets, and cannot be traced to Memo.
  • The Boogeymen are technically illusions. They cannot exist without nightmares to feed off of, and will disappear if a character conquers their fears.
  • They should be legitimately terrifying! While the details are flexible depending on the mun and character, they should be scary and dangerous!
  • They cannot be captured, and have no individual intelligence
  • They can be defeated, and are fairly plentiful. Strength varies, so tailor them to suit the needs of your threads!

THE SHORT AND SWEET:
  • WHEN: March 11th to March 17th-- Those are both Mondays! M for MONSTERRRRrr.
  • WHERE: Fayren & Everglade
  • WHAT: Nightmare monsters attacking pendent bearers.
How To Participate:
  • Before the event proper, Memo will have an IC Anon meme for spreading rumors. Please feel free to use it to get spooky monster ideas in your character's heads and stuff!
  • Starting March 11th, feel free to include NPC monsters in your characters' posts. They stalk, the hunt, they spook!
  • There will be an event log too! If you don't feel like making your own post, please consider making a top-level.
  • Traumatize your muses, save each other's muses, and have fun!
If you have any questions, please let me know~! If this goes well, I hope to have Memo stir up more trouble in the future.
