Moon Phase
Full Moon - Final Night
Storyline
Once again, Eden and Ben found themselves at the mercy of the moon. The effect this time was more similar to that of the first night of their transformations. The changes, while still painful, seem to be a little easier this time, perhaps because the body has begun to adjust to the unnatural changes. After another night spent as dire animals, the characters will awaken to a cool morning -- with a whole month to prepare for the change.
Unfortunately for Gwyn, there seems to be no respite for her condition: she remains unchanged: something caught between a woman and a snake.
A cool southernly breeze greets characters this morning. By 10:00 AM, the breeze has picked up to a steady wind, and the few lazy clouds that filled the night sky have become dark and threatening. The storm moves in quickly after that, bringing thunder, lightning, and, surprisingly, even a few minutes of hail. Before noon, the storm does no damage but for a few leaves and small twigs torn from trees.
The storm goes on all morning. At 2:00 PM, the storm gives one final gust: a large tree near Yankee block is hit by lightning. Although soaked from the day-long downpour, the tree briefly flares up and topples onto the building. The fire is out by the time characters arrive, and no one is hurt. The tree did, however, take a powerline with it, knocking out power for the entire facility. After this final act, the storm rolls into the distance, having decided, apparently, that it had done enough damage.
Candles, umbrellas, and flashlights are, of course, available in the stores.
So far, there is no word from the Commissioner -- but even if there were, of course, characters couldn't read it.

Moon Phase
Full Moon
Storyline
No sooner has the sun begun to set than Eden and Ben begin once more to suffer the affects of their curse. Once more, their bones shift painfully into new positions as their bodies mutate into yet another form. Neither human or truly an animal, Ben and Eden become impossible larger versions of a panther and wolf. Tonight, regardless of where Ben and Eden are when the changes take place, their aggression will drive them to immense destruction. Anything or anyone unfortunate enough to cross their paths will be attacked -- for the simple pleasure of it.
Characters who were wise enough to follow the Commissioner's suggestions to lock their doors will be safe from attack -- although they, of course, do not know that for certain.
Come morning, both will awaken in states similar to the previous morning.
Gwyn will find that the night of the full moon brings no changes to her own changed form. She is permanently altered -- and the coming and going of the full moon will have no more effect on her.
Mod Notes
It is up to the players where Eden and Ben are at the time of their change. It is certain to be violent. If the characters are in town at this time, neighbors will hear the commotion and may even find the corpses of small animals -- birds and squirrels -- torn apart near town, accompanied by large foot prints. Further out, explorers will find larger prey: monkeys and a small hunting party of the large, white wolves.
The destruction is apparent.

Who: Colin and Mina
Where: Trying to get back to Alfa-2
When: Morning
Okay, now all he had to do was get back to his cabin, take a shower, and put on clean clothes and... And he was at a loss from there, because what the hell, he'd nearly been eaten by the girl he'd gone to go help who'd been turned into a snake thing.
"It had to be snakes," he muttered to himself, trying to ignore how fucking disgusting he felt. He'd wet himself in fear. Of course, if that Scottish kid hadn't shown up and stopped her, he'd be dead. Snake chow.
"God, this is fucked up..." Colin continued in that frustrated mutter. As if saying it out loud was making it any better.
