#hwevent05

tldr ; the weather is changing from winter to spring, but sometimes winter has a way of clinging to the world for a little longer than it’s stay. a snow storm has come to washington, and it is like no other the city has seen. there are swirls of snow, trapping people for a brief moment, and when it finally releases them, their memories are altered, either remembering or forgetting who they were. the magic of dc has come to a head once more and is looking to feed off of anyone and everyone left in the streets. so, as the snow builds and the temperature falls, the risk of injuries only goes up and not everyone is safe from that which makes them vulnerable, accidents can happen, but will they happen to you? to avoid them, people are ushered into the only safe places from the storm are the designated safe houses the president has set up in this state of emergency,  with very little explanation only insisting panic and confusion within the masses. how will they handle this time locked up with the flurries outside looking equally inviting and malicious?

OOC INFORMATION

hello guys, gals and nonbinary pals of hiddenwashington !!! we are so excited to bring you hidden’s fifth event and cannot wait to see what you all make of it !! if some of you were around all that time ago to last year during our first event, you may notice that this is very similar to it, but we have added some twists!! we thought it would be fun to throw some nostalgia to our first event since hitting one year but to shake it up with some new information, so please read on to find out all you need to know about how this bad boy will work !!

dates :

march 16th - 23rd

the event will last one week out of character & only 4 days in character.

safe house locations :

this is where your character will be during the duration of the event, they are not allowed to leave (at least not according to those in charge) but they will be interacting solely with characters also stationed in their group !! and how your character arrived in the location is completely up to you! they could already be there, be in the area, have gotten swept up in the crowd or pulled inside !! anything that comes to mind !!

group one ; the white house

group two ; the dc armory

group three ; the capitol building

group four ; the supreme court building

group five ; warner theater

group six ; theodore roosevelt high school

group seven ; national air and space museum

group eight ; medstar georgetown university hospital

character locations  :

find out where your characters will be on this document here !!

this page will be continuously updated with each new character and drop, so if you are ever wondering where your character will be, please just check there to find out !!

** note ; all these locations have been chosen randomly. if too many of your characters are together in one group, let us know and we shall spread them out more !! the randomizing is done to help ensure that we are mixing it up and people are writing outside of any connections and making new ones !!

character injuries :

this is a dangerous storm, hence why your characters are being kept in the safest places the city could organize on such short notice. and with that said, it’s not unlikely that some people will not be in the safest situations. injuries happen, and you are more than welcome to have your characters hurt !!

please message the main if you would like your character to be injured and we will send you what injury they shall receive. please provide us the severity of what you would like, anything from a minor injury (concussion, twisted ankle, dislocated wrist) to something more severe (bleeding, car crashes, broken bones etc.)

as always you are free to have your characters die, like every event, and have their memories taken from them, or given back to them in that way !!

please be sure that you are aware of the triggering nature of this aspect to the event and are tagging everything appropriately !!

tagging, posting and plotting :

please feel free to start plotting with those in your group as there are some new and old faces for your muse to speak with !!

please note that while phones may be usable during the event, service may drop in and out as winds pick up, so it will not be a reliable source of communication between safe houses !!

if we see too many people using phone threads to keep in contact with connections instead of focusing on threads within their groups, we will remove the option to use phones.

please use the tag “hwevent05″ on any posts, and any starters that you make please make sure to add in what group your character is in to the tags, with anything like “group one” , “group one : the white house” , “the white house” , or anything that suits you !!

please be sure that you are only rping within your safe house location, as there is no traveling between them during the duration of the event !!

once the event begins, please hold any and all non event threads !! you are free to pick them back up after the event ends or start fresh with the lack or influx of memories, injuries and reunions !! it’s up to you !! but while the event is running please only post event threads !!

if you would like your character to have their memories affected by being caught in the snow storm, please just message us so we can keep the taken page up to date !!

please remember that not everyone has to have their memories altered, and you are free to keep your character either aware/unaware !! but be sure to remember that if they do have their memories altered, this will affect them in the long run after the event as well !!
