Oh the weather inside is frightful but some fires would be delightful~

Polar Vortex!

In the middle of the night on day 299, something has gone amiss. The temperature ship wide begins to slowly drop, filling the rooms with a biting low cold. It's as though winter has come to the Engime. Over the day, the walls and floors will slowly cover with ice and in the various lounges, it's begun to snow, coating tabletops and seats alike with a soft white blanket.

There's been a malfunction in the holodecks having to do with the recent fiddlings of Seth and a small group of people and now, it's a mere 15 °F. (That's -10 ºC) Thankfully, there's no wind chill to take into account. The Cargo Bay is the only place that seems to escape this cold but only the worst of it. It's more livable temperature comes out to only just above freezing.

The cold will last until late in day 301 when the ship slowly starts warming back up to it's amicable warmer temperatures.

So what shall you do? Cuddle with a buddy? Huddle under your blankets? Well now, that's up to you, isn't it.

Please note that this is a player plot and has nothing to do with the metaplot.

FAQ

1.Is this caused by magic?
No, it's a technical malfunction.

2. Can it be fixed with magic?
No, and any attempt to fix it at the source will fail.

3. My character is a vampire, will they be effected?
Yes, as the temperatures will be below freezing.

4. Are the blankets provided in the rooms thick enough?
Yes, they are heavier styled comforters.

5.I have another question that you didn't already answer.
Wonderful, just place your questions here and we'll answer them as readily as we can.

Devi will be tromping through the ship, stopping in the Library and one of the lounges to play in the snow. Her Ki can start fires, so if you need a walking flint and steel... Sooner or later, she'll find herself back in the Cargo Bay, but cuddling won't be her thing.

Matthew's blush of health maintains his body temperature to something that can pass in the human world, so despite the numbing cold, he'll be a little warmer then the rest of the freezing bodies. Bottle of scotch in hand, he'll be walking around offering shots to people to help ease their pains.

If you'd like something with either, please, let me know! I'd love to see some new or expanded CR and totally want more of their existing CR. \o/

Hello, yes. We shall deliver on date. I'm probably going to have him put up his own log, shall we ping you when it's up?
