The Plague!



  • ((fort roll 25))

    Telli waddles along the streets curing those she comes across… her priority pretty clear to tend to the most terminal first. Farmers often get priority as well as kin, although none are turned down until what gifts given to her by Chauntea are taxed in a given day. At which point she'll give what healing aid she can in terms of scrolls, potions and devoted attention to the nearby clinics if they need help.

    ::Those who help the suffering and are not protected from the disease like paladins…

    // or as a monk, I believe, as monks also have immunity to disease.

    ((except magical or supernatural and is obtained at 5th lvl so hope it isn't magical 🙂 or you are above 5th lvl))



  • Being both an Archangel of the city and a squire in the Divine Shield, Elijah of Ilmater has been working days and nights in acquiring remedies, healing people with divine magic and trying to figure out the source of the plague.



  • ::Divine healing seems to be main method of aid used by healers. It works, it seems::



  • Nyda visits briefly to determine the efficacy of Remove Disease on one of the victims.



  • (Or as monk. Counting starts from today, and its 1 rl day that counts, not IG day).

  • ::Those who help the suffering and are not protected from the disease like paladins, please roll fort check DC 10 for each day they are helping. Failed check (or even a roll of 1-2) means contracting disease. Please contact me if that happens::



  • Shade enters the quarantined warehouses and alleviates what suffering she can among the children with the little healing the goddess blesses her with. She tends to those cases that might then be treated and cured by the Divine Shield's presence. She encourages the people as best she can and lets them know she is working on finding a rare treatment and will be back. She begs them not to give up hope. She assures those with afflicted children that they will be taken care of first. By her body language and increasingly frazzled demeanor she seems to take on the responsibility that this is all somehow her fault, for not being able to convince the city they were heading towards this when there was still time to stem the tide.



  • (silmile Feydan keeps attending to the sick when no healers of the DIvine shields can be found about.With great patiance she tends to the sick and bring them hopes with soft words and bright smiles).



  • Quara seems to spend a lot of time with those who have to wait for treatment. A warm smile never seeming to leave her face, she makes an effort to distract those waiting by listening to their troubles, showing around paintings of meager quality and providing the odd toy for children that have to wait - more often than not tiny, crudely carved wooden cats. On occasion, she even seems to cure the odd person of the plague.



  • Catching the rumour, Senator Petrarch seems quite surprised. "Just who are these "all the city's authorities"?



  • Shade's anger steadily increases as more and more infected refugees find their way into the city. Her frustration stems from all the city’s authorities telling her to butt out when she suggested an eastern roadblock to prevent this situation from getting worse. She tries to meet with the Children of Hoar to see if they can be persuaded to assist and what they may want in return.



  • Senator Calen Ashwynd is seen helping in the docks and surrounding areas providing fresh cooked food and bandages, as well as blankets and clean clothes. Also he is seen, without fear, tending to the most ill, helping feed them and assure they are warm and safe from the superstitious.



  • ::The number of diseased coming from the east increases, and occasionally there's small outbreak within the city. People have to wait for their turn to receive treatment::



  • General Ash and General Neverith have set up Guard/Archangel posts on the road leading to the Docks District, advising people entering to cover their faces, and checking those exiting for symptoms, and within the Docks empty warehouses have been leased to Lieutenant Rose and the Archangels so that anybody who thinks they may have plague or know somebody who has may present themselves or bring their loved ones for aid. For the most part business continues as normal thus far in the Docks, aside from these changes.



  • A few cases are rooted out at the soup kitchen and they are taken away for treatment. Shade tries to calm them as they go telling them it will be ok. She is sure to mention often to those passing through not to be scared and to report any signs of sickness right away because we can help them. She begs the people not to give into fear or aggression and hugs those that were sick and return from being treated, making sure people see she is not afraid of them. Finally, Shade reminds them that in all things…

    Selûne will watch over them if they look to Her for guidance and…

    Hope is our greatest weapon!



  • Senator Adrian Petrarch also takes some time to visit the sick. Though by the grace of his god he has little to fear from the disease, he doesn't seem able to cure it as most other paladins seem able to. Instead, he offers kind words, drinks of water and aid in the comfort of those ill.



  • _Victims of the plague are few so far, combined effort of Archangels, Temple of the Triad, Divine Shield, and other healers seem to be enough to aid them. (So far there have been four deaths to the Black Death in the city).

    There are horrible tales however of men turning against men in face of crisis, killing and burning the victims. Loved ones separate, old friendships are lost.

    It is also rumoured that more plague victims will come from the east soon, and this will be the true test for the city's healers and their resolve_
