Event | Console Crash Chaos | Phase One
Characters: ALL!
Date: April 17-30, 2014
Location: Keeliai
Situation: In an unexpected and bold attack by Malicant, the console system is completely shut down while food and supply locations all around the city are targeted by bombings.
Warnings/Rating: Explosions! Possible descriptions of related aftermaths, injuries, death, etc.
Shortly after eight in the morning of the 17th, the consoles experience a strange glitching effect. They'll display 15-20 seconds of static, interrupting anything being done on them at the time, before going utterly dark. No power, no signal, completely offline even to detection of their normal bio-mechanical signatures. No amount of energy influx will get them going again, though taking them apart (or trying to) will still cause them to melt into goo.
Within minutes of the console shutdown, explosions will begin ripping through Keeliai. The bombs are all timed as close to simultaneous as coordinating a city-wide attack can be, with many going off within seconds of each other, throwing the thriving morning rush into chaos. They tear into businesses and across public spaces, collapsing walls and blowing piles of debris into the streets. Places of high traffic quickly become evident as prime targets: marketplaces, hospitals, schools and cafes. The streets take only moments to fill with panicking, screaming kedan trying to pull their injured fellows out of harm's way. All told, the explosions take place across approximately a 10-minute stretch and their explosive yields are fairly high.
In addition to the bombs that cause destruction through their blasts, smaller bombs are going off around the city that specifically target food and water supplies, particularly where large stocks of it were kept such as grocers, produce markets, and the like. Rather than cause mass damage, these explosions spray out a fine mist of spores. Any perishables in their immediate area that are splattered develop an oozing black mold within minutes, eventually breaking down organic substances that turn to foul smelling rot and release their own mist, perpetuating the cycle. While skin contact with the mist doesn't harm, inhaling or ingesting it will produce shakes, fever, vomiting with a cumulative effect that has the potential to be fatal. It is much slower to infect the water supply but the sheer volume of rotting perishables will eventually put enough of the spores to taint water sources, approximately 6-8 hours after the original bombings.
The police force are out as soon as possible and within the hour are helping move the injured to safer locations with Evandau in charge, right in their midst and shoulder to shoulder with his subordinates. Not being stockpiles for any of the apparent targets, many of the Foreigner residences have been left undamaged and, wary of putting them in further danger by collecting large groups in public spaces, Foreigners may even be asked to take in a few individuals or a kedan family.
Despite the number of explosions, there are far more reports of injuries as opposed to casualties. The person or persons (or That Bad Guy) responsible for this were, for this attack at least, more intent on damage than on death.

Teenager logic.
As to the other question?
"And it's been about a year. Though a few months of that were... intense. Like, our HQ was somewhere that had weird time, but I think we'd go out to respond to emergencies like. Three, four times a day?" Beat. "It's also small-team sort of experience. Not a war-war kind." Small shudder. "Not really."
She hopes that answers what he was asking, because she can misunderstand, sometimes. Or overshare, though she's trying to keep her answers concise, rather than make him process even more information.
no subject
It's close to the answer he's looking for, certainly, and tells him a lot about what her experience must have been like. Still barely more than a fish, he thinks sadly. Still, in this case, that history might be more useful in some ways than his own Legion past. After all, this is a confined town, and he doesn't have thousands of men and an open field in which to deploy them. It'll take some inventive learning on his part to adapt to it.
Then again, it's more fun that way.
"This may be a war, but it isn't battlefields and siege engines," he assures her. "Even if there's coordination across forces, given past behavior I doubt we Foreigners will be much integrated into any of the kedan troops, and there aren't enough of us to make more than many small teams the most effective. If we actually had cause for a frontal assault--"
He pauses.
"Well, it's a problem for another day." And not the point at the moment. "What's your fighting style? Unarmed, favored weapon, some kind of," not furycrafting, "magic?"
no subject
Then, more seriously. "Unarmed. I had some training even before the mask. Then - I've had more. And I can rely on size in the way most people can't - when I grow bigger, I become stronger; but when I go smaller, I retain normal-size strength. Punching somebody who never ever saw you coming can resolve things kind of well."
Beat.
"Non-lethal. Unless something goes very wrong. But, other than the size change - that's from exposure to a scientific product, by the way, not magic - not much more of note that's not normalish."
no subject
He nods, considering what she's said--and honestly, he is in many ways very glad that her fights are non-lethal. However much he's used to boys her age already being in the Legions, he always regrets children losing so much of their childhoods to combat.
"All right. Report in if you need to stop for rest or food." Just so he can keep track. "When things have calmed a little, I'm going to assign you to one of the healers for some field work. For now, as I said before, keep helping clear out this area a little bit until we have more to work with."
