The Dark Tourney - Pre Battle Karnival
Time: Variable
Location: Variable

Realm: Present

2 months pass since the Blast to the Past events. The resilient city rebounds from attack on the Lower Commons. After the attack, the Demon Samurai Army is nowhere to be found in the city. Nothing abnormal happened after that. Division 12 monitors the destroyed area that they dropped a laser on, but do not know where chunks of the city went. The Division use what they learn from the attack to create future counter measures. There were people in the Lower Commons who saw what happened. They saw the physically manifested demon army and the battle with Division 12, but the media labels them as lunatics. The media explains that the terrorists caused a very large gas leak. They explained that the fumes from this leak caused hallucinations and extreme paranoia with lingering effects. The gas leak also explained the large explosion that ended the fighting. Division 12 was hailed as heroes again and cleaned up the mess with the help of the local police forces. The Major gives an announcement to the city and the ‘terrorists:’

“In partnership with Psi Corp, we will run a campaign to clean up the Lower Commons! It will no longer be a den for terrorism. We’ll smoke them out from their holes and hiding places. Terrorists, there is no where you can hide. We will make the entire city a safe place for our citizens! I have a dream… I have a dream that my four little children, one day will grow up in a city free of drugs… free of poverty… free of those who do wrong… we will fix this city and shine a brilliant light over the darkness… we shall overcome and we shall create a city of peace and prosperity!”

It is a normal day. Life continues like normal in the city. The sky is blue with light and fluffy scattered cloud cover. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable. People dress in summer wear. Construction crews contracted by Psi Corp are almost done rebuilding the area in the Lower Commons damaged by the demon invasion. Beep beeps can be heard from large construction vehicles. In parks in East City and Gothstone, kids fly kites with their parents, bird chip, etc. In the Lower Commons there’s no barking from the dogs, no smog, and momma cooked a breakfast today with no hog. Today was a good day (Ice Cube). Ballers are out flossing in their whips and honeys were on the block showing off. The donuts were just right today at the police department and there were no misunderstandings with drug deals on the streets.

Realm: Past

The villages recover after the attack of the Demon Army. The leaders of Saichuushigai reach out to Hejar. The chieftain of Hejar sells Sai Village information on the whereabouts of the demon army. The villages come together and form an alliance against this army, but they still don’t know anything about it. Large walls are reinforced around the major villages. The militias are strengthened. The leaders of each village send scouts to get more information on their new enemy. The temples are busy with people praying to ward off evil and hard times. There is a reinvigoration in the church.

Realm: ???

Something happens in an area that looks like the forest. A barrier forms a misty black dome over about three blocks of room in the forest. The barrier raises high over the tree tops at around the same height as a small skyscraper. Inside the dome, metal forms and twists into large structures, Yokai (being controlled by someone or something) transform into twisted versions of Teddy Bears, Bunny Rabbits, and other things you might see at a place like Disney, and a carnival grow out of nothing. It boasts large rides, balloons, games, concessions, booths and tents. There are large red flags and a welcome banner at the gates with a twisted clown face.

Realm: Past and Present

Very weird looking signs start to pop up at random places around the city and villages in both the future realm and the past realm. They look like twisted stop signs, but are bright colors with the words looking like they were painted on with a paint brush. The main word says “KARNVIAL.” They have a poster taped to them with a message:

“FuN fUn Fun! Kum one kum awl to the KARNIVAL! Games, prizes and a live event! Fighters WELKOMED. Think yEr strong? Enter the Unholy Fighter Championship! Singles and team kompetitions available. Bring yerself or bring yer family! Fun for all!”

In really tiny letters it had the caption: “all your souls are belongs to us.”

The signs are enchanted to attract people with strong senses, will, abilities and/or magic to it. Normal people aren’t able to see these signs, only people who can see spirits. Every poster has a place that says ‘touch here to go!’ that portals people to the gates of the carnival.

Rules:
no set post order
wait at least 2 ppl (or 4 characters) before between posts
if you interact with starred npcs, wait on that npc to respond before reposting
(npcs coorindator’s: label storyline important npcs with a star by their name like *Glucose)
Do not start off with “I touch a sign”…. -.-‘ xP
BTW - this is just the carnival portion, not the tourney that will take place in onitoshi
