Our original idea for the main crisis (before you announced the calamity) was a spell that taints the Tap on Corone. Maybe we can go back to that.

Isn't the tap from the Thaynes?
Breaker, colour me interested. Stare might fit in quite nicely.
I'm also thinking a "Natury based thing". Basically a group of people interested in keeping nature alive going to try to find if there's anything left alive. What I'm thinking is that they actually discover the fertile effects of volcanic soil.
This will be led partly by Philomel, and then when she leaves to head to Fallien to find out how life thrives in a desert, it will be taken over by my characters Celandine (her daughter) and Vaeron (her daughter's father).

Matriarch of the Gilded Lily and of its brothels, associated establishments and the army.

The family triplet: Philomel, Vaeron and Celandine.
The god and kenku triplet: Stare, Avin and Vixen.
The Primordials: Professor Charles and Moros.
I've got some ideas regarding the tular plains for Nos.
And whoever wants to be involved in that plan too. Tony I wanted to ask you if during the event it will be possible (To temporarily or even perma) take over certain regions icly. My idea is that Nos plans an exodus to go back to the tular plains. The cataclysm adversely affects demon society and everything is in a state of chaos. I intend to have Nos take the whole thing over and declare himself Overlord or whatever. The basic idea I have for this to work is that Zieg has gone missing or perhaps was kia and nobody knew. My general idea is that there is a tribunal that Zieg left behind or some such thing like that and Nos goes in and takes it over during the cataclysm.
If things work out right enough I want Nos to be the new leader of Tular Plains. Figure it would fit with the story arc I have planned for Nos and for demonkind in general. I wanted to run my ideas by you just in case I needed some sort of a permission to start this up during the event. I'm interested in having partners with Nos and Lorenor.
With Lorenor my primary ideas i he goes back to Corone area after the cataclysm is in effect. He survives the initial chaos because him and a cult that was following him hid in the mountains of Scara Brae region. My general idea is Lorenor is trying to hlep as many people out as he can. He's got my more good guy approach to this, and Nos too..but in the light of his race as a demon. Those are my primary ideas so far. Any of you doing survivor stories in Scara Brae/Corone let me know and I shall work with you all.
I'd love to join the action!
How's Scara Brae going to be affected? I know the ash cloud is over it, but... what other details?
And poor Eiskalt. Three apocalypses in a row...
"I can't be proud of anything. I am ashamed of everything."
"I gave my heart, my allegiance, all my energy for this and got nothing but ashes in return. What on earth did I do to deserve being chewed and spit out like this? Time and time again, it's all the same."

What's going on with Scara Brae is up to you. I'd suspect it'd be okay structurally because it was pretty far from the epicenter of the earthquake, but it would certainly be affected by the ash cloud. Perhaps Scara Brae is a stepping stone of those assassin's invasion of Corone? Perhaps some ancient goddess in Stonevale protects the wildlife there, making it a sanctuary for all living creatures and some poachers try to capitalize. Perhaps the cloud is thin there and nothing changes. Maybe Sir Narripleon chooses a successor, who then overthrows the queen to make Scara Brae a dictatorship. You could do so much!
Rescue effort group made of characters who can withstand more extreme situations, trying to head into disaster affected regions to see what survivors can be found.
In this regard, Mikhail is going to be heading into either the depths of the ash cloud, or the impact zone, to investigate. If anyone wants to join hit me up.
Survivor groups, trapped in the disaster zones, threads focused around frantic attempts to stay alive while the very world around you seems to want you dead.

Cruel and brutal are the blades for the Beast
It's time to Carve and Clatter and Cleave.
A member of the NevCrew:
Nevin: Thread count: please, don't try.
Erik: Thread count: five or six. Maybe seven...
Huntsman: seven. Maybe eight. Shhhhhhh.
Telli' thread count: zero. I just can't get into writing the little hellion.
Me and Breaker are sitting down tomorrow and having a gdoc session to flesh out the idea of a taint in the tap, amongst other things. I'd also very much like to involve the Brotherhood and Storm / Philomel in those plans.
Maddison and Amari time?
My initial ideas were to have Yvonne lead a mass exodus of multi-cultural peoples from affected areas, to attempt to keep the widespread panic under control. She sends town criers into each affected country to encourage anyone looking for a fresh start to join the exodus. Clean water and edible food will be transported to them by her caravan contacts (they have supplies safely kept in storage to capitalize on events like these). She arranges what ships she can to take them across the sea, but the people following her are so numerous many will need to be built in Southern Raiaera. Which, with so many hands and fear of the apocalypse, doesn't take them long.
Ultimately Yvonne racks up an enormous debt looking out for so many people, buying food and water at exorbitant prices, paying for ship captains and caravan logistics. However, her good deeds are an investment in the people which she records in her books. She intends to pay her debts over time with interest.
How is she going to do that, with so many hungry bellies to feed and shelter to provide? Well, she's going to organize the construction of a new city of course, start her own economy and multi-cultural society in Dheathain. There's plenty of unused space over there and the air is free of volcanic ash. She'll need to speak directly with the fae rulers who already govern the region, and I don't expect them to be at all happy with the mass mainland migration she's brought to their land, but she'll talk them around, possibly with help from trusted friends. She's had practice with speaking to kings, right?
The city will be a haven to all kinds of tribes and monster races. Heavy on populations of Kobolds, Orcs, Ratkin and Trolls, with notable mentions of Ogres and Giants. Humans are few (they're adaptable) and some high elves and dwarves followed her too. Some of the locals also become curious about all the big changes, so some drakari and fae pitch in. Literally everyone who wanted to get out of the end of days instead of facing it comes with.
It's a boiling pot of racial rivalries which Yvonne is quick to quell, and no doubt the city of monsters will be seiged in future on account of it being a city of monsters and outcasts, but she fully intends to found a matriarchal society on the tenets of... I don't know, green living, working together and productivity, trade and acceptance of all peoples.
I would be happy to invite anyone who expects to survive the apocalypse and those who would seek to undermine such grandiose survival efforts.
So I’m cutting that branch off the cherry tree.
Singing this will be my victory.
Then I, I see them coming after me.
And they’re following me across the sea.
And now they’re stinging my friends and my family.
And I, I don’t know why this is happening.

wants to help Yvvie too
