As mentioned last month, an engineer from the city of Raumm has been working in town to try and update the infrastructure. Namely, he's been trying to implement running water using a combination of his own inherent abilities and technical knowledge. It's been a more complicated process than he originally anticipated but that's only made him more determined.

Unfortunately, his strict working conditions and extra hours demanded has left a larger margin for error. One morning, people will awaken to the crack-shatter of a pipe (or several) and rushing of water through Town unexpectedly. Rather than turning into a flood though, it ices over nearly everything it touches and swiftly.

Maybe it caught you in the process and you need some help being picked out from the road. Perhaps you're now trapped in your house due to far too many icicles hanging from your roof and covering the door. Maybe you're actually living it up and impromptu ice-skating across Town now.

Watch your step, workers will advise, and don't mind the Sahuagin-esque swears coming from their head engineer. He's fine. It'll be fine. ... It'll probably be fine!

To try and turn this disaster into something a bit more fun though, Town decides to kill two birds with one stone and proposes an ice sculpting competition. People are free to compete with the promise of small prizes for their efforts. Whether doing it the old-fashioned way or using one's dragon breath, the point is to have fun!

Well, that and- Please help them chip away some of this ice before it causes more damage.
SPICY EXPERIMENTATION

If that header is misleading, our apologies. Anything untoward is actually one of the farthest things from Hoshiko's mind as she workshops some newer inventions of hers. Although she'd usually have her crew be the test subjects for her gadgets, they're busy and she's stuck here in Town for the time being so- Lucky you, Townsfolk!

If playing with ice and snow isn't your thing (like it isn't hers), then feel free to instead to offer your assistance and feedback on her inventions. She appreciates it! For your help, you'll be rewarded with mulled wine. That's spicy, right? She can also help people acquire one (1) luxury item imported from Raumm for their help. It'll even be delivered in time for the new year!

As for her inventions, people can choose from four to beta test:
    ⁂ The Deinvisibler - This device is a small round sphere containing a pebble of compressed air surrounded by 2" of flour. When activated, it explodes covering a 15' radius area in flour centered on you. The clean-up is the part she's still working on. Have fun with that!

    ⁂ Rift Chalk - Inspired by the nearby Feyfolk, this chalk is used to draw on nearly any surface to create temporary passage via portal within a 60ft radius. Both portals need to be drawn with the same-colored chalks and- What's that? Was she keeping track of who took what color? Oh. Right. Well! Time to find out who has your matching color, she guesses. Let her know and also how well the portals work.

    ⁂ Finger-Gun(s) - A gauntlet or gauntlets that, when "aimed" and fired like a finger gun, launches a projectile from a shoulder-mounted launcher. This is one of her oldest and most used inventions, but she's testing the power of it. Be careful with those guns. They might hit a bit harder than you intend even if they aren't deadly.

    ⁂ Smoke Cloak - A cloak that can generate smoke to create cover. A good idea in theory, not necessarily great in execution. Careful that the smoke inhalation and fumes don't make you too dizzy.
As always, she holds no liability or responsibility for what Townsfolk choose to do. All she cares about is notating the results. Thanks again!


... and everything nice?

As the year comes to a close, it's a time for reflection and observation. That means there is something people in Town can notice that feels a bit... abnormal. Even amidst the general merriment of this time of year, a sense of something being slightly off persists but can't be sourced to a specific cause.

Those especially in tune with the dragon souls may recognize that it's actually coming from them. If asked, their dragon souls won't have a definitive answer either but can confirm: Something feels wrong even if they aren't sure what or why. Their anxiety will cause an undercurrent in you as the host but to what level is up to how well people are able to cope with such a thing. They suggest finding comfort in spending time with others as they are, just as you likely are, social creatures.

There are also no blizzards or cold snaps to worry about this year in contrast to last. In fact, it's almost uncharacteristically quiet closer to the end of the month. Denizens of Town are free to notice the lack of life that's to an abnormal level. Hibernation is one thing but it feels as if most animals have left the area entirely rather than just gone to sleep.

First the crops and a poor harvest, now with the wildlife being absent, and even in the stale weather patterns- It's hard to not feel a little uneasy too outside of your dragon soul's dread. There is an unsettling stillness to the world that will cause people to be more on edge than usual.

Hopefully, a new year though will mean a new start and better things to come.
