Event Fourteen.
[ 11/23 - 11/30 ]
It was really only a matter of time before the mirrors came back to bite everyone, wasn't it...?
Because on the 23rd of November, each and every character in the Town, whether they broke their mirror or not, is going to find themselves dumped in the middle of a large, spacious, empty palace -- a palace made of ice and snow and absolutely frigid in every single way. It's huge -- there's a throne room, entirely empty, dozens of empty rooms such as kitchens and armories and bedrooms, a dungeon... all so empty and open for exploration -- and it doesn't look like there's any particularly easy way out.
Welcome to the Snow Queen's Palace.
Still, there are a few important things to note:
- There's no Snow Queen. The throne is empty, the halls are quiet. Where is she...? It's a mystery, honestly. But no character will be able to find or encounter her during this event.
- It's possible to leave the castle, but you'll be walking out into a barren, snowy waste. You can walk and walk and walk for the entirety of the week and never see any other civilization.
- It's not entirely correct to say the castle is completely empty: there are snowflake knights wandering the palace, prepared to try to subdue anyone and shove them into the frigid dungeons. They can be defeated and killed (they will burst into a pile of snow!) but their weapons are also very real and very sharp.
So what about those people who broke their mirrors...?
Well, they have a bit of an problem on their hand. Each and every one of those characters who broke their mirrors got a shard of magical glass stuck in their body. Where this happened is up to you, but keep in mind that that glass shard is going to start moving towards their heart as soon as they end up in the palace. The further away from their heart it starts, the longer they'll have, but ultimately, it's going to start to make it there.
And the closer it gets, the more frigid they will feel, both inside and out, numbed to their own troubles and the troubles of others. They'll still be themselves...just number, colder, more distant, as if they're trying to reach their typical emotions through a pool of water. This will get worse the further that shard progesses. If that shard of glass reaches their heart? They will be properly frozen over physically, like a frozen statue of their former selves, though they will be entirely aware of what's going on around them the entire time. It will be as though they are an ice statue at that point; if they are shoved over or fall, they will shatter into pieces, and if they are left near an open flame, they will melt -- all of them. So be careful!
So what's to be done about this mess? Well, thankfully, there's a way to save them.
If a character who is pure of heart either cries upon them or kisses them, the ice will recede and they will feel healthier, more whole, and closer to normal.
This effect can be as strong or as weak as you'd like it to be; it could take multiple kisses or tears from multiple characters, or just one from a single important piece of CR to break the spell completely -- it's up to you, and feel free to be as creative as you'd like with it!
So what constitutes a character who's "pure of heart", anyway? For the purposes of this event, if a character meets any two of the following criteria (even if they don't meet the rest!), they can be considered pure of heart:
- Character aligned with a light element/sun powers/similar such things
- Characters that have never killed another person (note: not necessarily another human, but explicitly another person-like being that has a similar level of sentience)
- Characters that pretty consistently have good intentions for the people around them
- Characters that are virgins
- Characters that are princes or princesses
- Characters that are martyrs, have a great deal of self-sacrificial tendencies, or have acted in a self-sacrificial manner
If a character who meets any two (or more!) of the above restrictions kisses or cries upon a frozen or freezing character, it will properly cure the curse the mirrors have cast on them. But be very careful! If a character who does not meet the requirements for being pure of heart attempts to break the curse, they will be inflicted with the same, even if they didn't break their mirror. The characters will have to be very, very careful as they try to figure out how to fix this mess!
They'll be trapped in the palace for the entirety of the event -- that's a solid seven days! Thankfully, with the kitchens and gardens of the palace, there's food to eat, but it's going to be a very cold, very miserable week for those who feel such things.
The outcome of the event depends entirely on how many characters have or don't have the curse broken; please let us know here if your character has had their curse broken or if they will be freezing over entirely in this event. Please also note: if a character freezes over entirely this event, they will find that when they return to the Town, either their eye color or hair color has disappeared. It will remain that way until a thread with a particular requirement is submitted via their color log. What needs to be submitted will be given individually to each character this applies to.
The event log for this event will be up 11/23! If there are any questions, please feel free to ask them here!
