OceanSoul, seeing the futility of kicking sports equipment at those armed with automatic weapons, decides that more singing is in order! Some more... fecally inclined singing. Starting with the once-popular song
Do-Re-Mi from Mary Poppins, he begins to modulate his tone lower and lower so that it may eventually reach the mythical Brown Note! [Singing: 2 + 2] Unfortunately for OceanSoul, there are two issues with this plan. The first being that the human body cannot actually produce sounds in between 5 and 9 Hz, and the second being that the Brown Note
doesn't actually exist. Adding insult to injury, OceanSoul's singing ends up shifting pitch in a most unpleasant manner, causing many audience members to stand up and loudly complain.
Desperately fending off an army of cats, ziizo attempts to use his skill in animal handling to turn the tides against NAV! [Animal Handling: 8 + 2 - 3 (Extreme Pain)] After puffing himself up a good deal, ziizo produces a variety of high-pitched growling and hissing noises as the cats all stop what they're doing to watch this confusing display. As the South African wiki-warrior rolls about dodging NAV's attempts at a curb-stomp, the cats begin to turn their attention upon their former master! Though not quite incited into attacking NAV, they are at least now actively working to thwart her efforts.
Back inside the Triple Door, Secheral responds to OceanSoul's extremely distressing vocal spasms by loudly reciting the names of various astral bodies in a bizarre attempt to somehow send the crowd into a fervent anti-American frenzy! [Astronomy: 7+2] Although Secheral is able to recite the names of many obscure stars, his ramble has no real impact on the crowd. Probably because psychology doesn't work like that, or because Secheral doesn't possess psychic powers. It's one of the two.
Over the loud and confusing sounds of uncontrollably vibrating vocal cords and the names of nearby stars, King Zultan takes aim at Puppyguard with his assault rifle! [4+2v2] Though the shot isn't particularly neat or accurate, it still manages to graze Puppyguard as he was momentarily distracted by auditory barrage currently assaulting everyone inside the lounge.
[Persuasion: 9 + 2 (Roman Catholicism)] After receiving the request to publicly denounce wiki-warriors of all kinds, Archbishop Sartain pauses for a moment. "Well, I'm sure you have a good reason to ask this of me. I'll get to work immediately, but I can't imagine that it'll have any sort of immediate impact. It is barely past midnight, after all. I'll be expecting an explanation for all of this the next time we meet. Jesus Christ be with you." With that, he hangs up the phone.
[Roman Catholics will begin randomly assaulting Wiki-Warriors, starting at 1 AM and increasing in frequency from there]
Meanwhile, after narrowly dodging a bullet Puppyguard finds himself diving for the body of his fallen mafioso compatriot! After lifting up the mafioso's body and positioning it between himself and King Zultan, he grabs the mafioso's tommygun and starts wildly firing at the American wiki-warrior! [2-1(Light Pain)v7] King Zultan doesn't even need to dodge, as the bullet misses him by several meters!
Despite her feline companions having turned against her, NAV still attempts to put ziizo out of his misery with a well-timed stomp! [10-2(Cats)v2-3(Pain)-2(Broken Bones)] Unfortunately for ziizo, it doesn't look like he still has the energy to keep rolling away in his current condition. As one foot narrowly misses his prone body, he attempts to roll away, but only finds themselves on the receiving end of a boot to the back of the head! Ziizo's skull cracks like an egg as blood and teeth fly everywhere, bits of brain matter splattering against the pavement.
NAV Curb Stomped ziizo! +Article: Laser Beam ProfilerAs ziizo's corpse slowly fades out of existence, a large metal apparatus appears in NAV's hand, marked in large black letters as a "Laser Beam Profiler". As she contemplates this new development, NAV also quickly notices that her cats still don't seem too terribly keen about her anymore.
A few blocks away, as Failbird lies bleeding on the pavement, a large ambulance comes careening down the road, skidding to a halt in front of her! A gaggle of white-clad paramedics practically tumble out of the back, and quickly start stabilizing her!
[Stabilization will complete next turn]
[Audience Reaction: 5 - 3 (Auditory Assault)]
The audience is starting to get really, really pissed. At least they still think that this is some modern art piece, albeit a really terrible one.
Audience Reaction: The audience at the Triple Door is getting really pissed.
Roman Catholic Aggression: There will be a slight chance that Wiki-Warriors find themselves being assaulted by enraged Roman Catholics. The chance of assault will increase as time goes on. (Starts at 1 AM)
A few blocks away in the
Columbia Center, another wiki-warrior pops into existence. Going by the name GigaGiant, he is very much the polar opposite of the previous wiki-warrior to enter the game. Tiny horns poke out of his head, betraying the fact that he is a little bit more than a mere human.
Back at the docks, another boat pops into reality a few feet above the water, causing a massive splash as it hits the surface. The previously mentioned couple, having seen two boats appear out of this air in the span of not even five minutes, flees screaming back into downtown Seattle.

I've chosen to include an area in which I'll keep track of various timers, ongoing effects, and anything else I think will be relevant to the game as it goes on. Because otherwise I'll forget about them and y'all will have to remind me once it's past the point where some timers should have gone off.
I'd also like to mention that once a player dies, they can feel free to jump back on the waitlist. I can only have a perpetually-cycling waitlist if there are actually people on it, eh?
