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?

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.

Blaine is like a walking heater normally, which is why he's always preferred cold weather. Maybe not this cold, but he's not doing too bad. He'll be walking around in layers, but not as many as you'd think he should have, and he'll be offering his body heat to people. A fair warning: he gets warm/hot pretty fast when snuggling so he may break it off to go breathe... or do that thing where you stick out an arm or a leg for ventilation. He'll be in the cargo bay some, but he'll also be exercising, running, and cooking warm foods like soup and chili. So come fill your bowl to stay warm |D

Kate is an excellent soup maker. You could say she is consomme professional. YEAH!

No, but seriously. Kate will try to make warm foods until the walls become too icy. Team up?
