On its surface, the people inside and surrounding the newly emergent "Redpill" subcultures seem  just like any other group of ordinary kids. However, strong rumors of death cults, militant gangs, and rampant drug use have City Officials deeply concerned about their growing influence over today's susceptible youth.

Now, That's an Eclipse!
By City Staff

A once-every-two-centuries solar eclipse plunged the city into an early nightfall, bringing with it celebrations, violence, and unusual behavior across the city.       Feral dogs were reported to be acting strangely and aggressively, causing city animal-control officials to step up efforts to round up the beasts. "Dog bites can be serious. If you see a strange dog without a collar or leash, avoid it. We have no reports of rabies in the city, but bites can be serious by themselves," said one official.       Gang violence was reported in some areas, bringing with it reports of a challenge of  leadership in one of the gangs,

which was reported to have been put down by established leaders.      This violence and the riots seemed to have an effect on the city's medical infrastructure. Hospital blood supplies were said to be dangerously low. A new blood drive will be announced later in the week.       The eclipse was caused by a rare conjunction of orbits, causing the path of the moon's shadow to move almost in tandem with Earth, making the eclipse singularly long in duration.       It will not happen again in the lifetimes of anyone currently alive.                                        By City Staff

Eclipse Celebration Rowdiness Escalates into Riots; Area Curfew Imposed

By CITY STAFF

     Law enforcement officials announced the arrests of over 40 persons in connection with riots in the Achan and Sobra Shores districts of the Barrens.
     The riots apparently grew from celebrations in and around Club Succubus, commemorating the historic "long night" eclipse, which brought unrest to various parts of the city.
     Proper processing of arrestees has been complicated by a widespread reluctance to provide real names. Aliases such as "RogueA," "Lady Return," "Dragon Storm," and "Calliente," and many other obvious "street names" reflecting the so-called Redpill subculture have stymied efforts to establish the arrestees'actual identites.
     Officials continued to neither confirm or deny reports that large numbers of the detainees had been released. City Officials also refused to ackowledge rumors from reliable sources about large numbers of protestors  who seemingly disabled the maximum security systems and staged a massive prison break away from custody.
     "We've quelled the disorder, which is the important thing. Citizens are safe. The city's safe. End of story," one official said.  "This was a win for the good guys."
