Dark Legacies; Part 1

Why have the many characters that live in Cypress Cove who once thrived on the Lazlo Society website stopped posting? Surely you have noticed.

For far too many months there has been no word from them, no emails, site posts, letters, or even phone calls. No unusual? Right? Many other characters have come and gone over the years, but Holister at least was a staple up until a few months ago and then even he has abruptly stopped posting.

The answer is quite simple really. The old addage that those inexperienced with powerful magicks should not venture where angels fear to tread.

If any characters from the Lazlo Society site have tried to contact Cypress Cove or the individual characters that live there, several things become eriely apparent;

1) All land line phone service is either " That Number is Not in Service " and just dead air.

2) No cellphone ocontact either, just " The number you are trying to reach is not with the service area. "

3) Radio communication goes unanswered, static, or just dead air depending on when and where you try to reach them.

4) Any physical mail is always returned " Address Unknown "

5) Emails and Instant messaging goes unreplied. Any attempt to see why simply comes back "Not in Service" or "Address not valid".

6) Even if this has been going on for months, no one has investigated or gone to see why. In fact, when this question is pondered, something else always seems to come up and change the topic. It is like everytime someone tries to remember Cypress Cove or the characters that once lived there, a mental fog decends over them.

Spoiler:
Only characters with an ME of 16 or higher are unaffected. Those with an ME of 10-15 will remember things but due to the fog that sets in not remember why? If the character persists in trying to focus a save of 15 or higher is required to save against Mind Control. Those with an ME of 8 or less remember nothing of Cypress Cove or the characters that lived there.


Any attempt to psychically and magically communicate with or remote viewing of the town comes back blank as though there is some force is blocking it.

One thing is certain, those character who are very persistant...perhaps too persistant will begin to feel as though they are being watched after 1d4+1 days of their last attempt.

Spoiler:
At this point an insanity save of 15 or higher is required to save against feelings of paranoia and insomina as the result of strange recurring nightmares.

Well I have something going via PM with Shangi Li based on this. Master Li was obviously not effected by the dark powers at work in Cypress Cove. He is there now snooping around (also see Lazlo Society Community Outreach link).

The dark forces have been watching the Lazlo site to make sure that no one from the site interferes with their plans. There is a "drone" watching the computer and using the Holister account to ensure noone else gets involved as they are now trying to make it sound like Master Li is just a crazy old man. They did not count on Master Li overcoming their magics and not being an old man.

So far Shang is doing ok, but he is vastly out numbered by "drones" and yet to find out what happen to Ben and the others.

In the meantime the minions of Dhagarla are attempting something never done before, they are trying to steal the nexus point in order to harness its vast power so that Dhagarla can release more of its "drones" into the world.

My character (Gotham Witch) and Slayer were interested in snooping about up there soonish, if that's alright.
