WHERE: Throughout the streets of Cellar Door and Willful Machine.
CONTENT WARNINGS: N/A
WHERE: Throughout the streets of Cellar Door and Willful Machine.
CONTENT WARNINGS: N/A
The Black Parade has begun in Trench. You will begin to see residents painting skulls and monsters onto their faces, even the ones who abide by practical lifestyles. By the first week of October, you won't see a single resident of Trench without facepaint or a mask of some kind obscuring their face.
"It's for the Black Parade," they say, "It's to keep us safe. You should start painting your face too. You should disguise yourself so they can't find you."
Who, you might ask? Anyone dangerous. It's vague and unsettling, but you think maybe they are onto something. Call it intuition or basic common sense. Stalls pop up all around Trench selling cheap masks and costumes. They aren't exactly Halloween costumes. There's less of a focus on becoming something and more of a focus on looking different than you currently do.
Then the Black Parade really takes off. Black and white confetti seem to fall from the sky and you can hear the distant sound of trumpets and drums. You can feel the earth give small tremors and Trenchies begin to flock to Cellar Door and the Willful Machine. They line the streets and you can see why: a literal parade is coming through. Stages are set with talented musicians rocking out, singing into wireless, floating moonlit mics. Incredible, giant puppets walk through the streets guided by a dozen talented Architects. Other people move about in stilted costumes, elaborate gowns. Some performers set up small, stationary areas to perform for smaller crowds. The sky is filled with massive and unusual kites. Find one among the many stalls or make your own!
Stalls hand out candied applies, foil-wrapped candies, and roasted pumpkin seeds by the bundles. Hot ciders are kept in barrels ready to be served up in tin mugs, with or without alcohol. It's a festive atmosphere that seems to go nonstop 24/7 throughout October but exclusively in these areas. It's a good place to go to avoid some of the haunts of October and to have a good time. Why not get involved? Make your own puppet, float, or costumes, and join in the fun. Chunks of the road are reserved for parades, but others have been sectioned off for people to dance and mingle about. You quickly learn that face-paint and masked/concealed faces seem to be a good way of avoiding the attention of beasts, angry Pthumerians, and other unusual creatures in Trench.
It's not a foolproof method, but October largely celebrates the safety of ambiguity and is one of the few times the practical and pleasure factions get along. Get your face painted up or pick out a costume - it's both aesthetic and life-saving! The Black Parade is held annually every October all October long and is considered a significant Trench holiday. Many people refer to the costumes specifically as "Black Parade" costumes and sentiments commonly exchanged at this time include: Have a blessed and safe Blood Moon; May your Seasons pass unseen; Bless the many faces of cleverness; May you go unseen by the blood; Blessed Black Parade.
QUICK FACTS
1. Halloween costumes you can buy at the store won't be available unless a character intentionally makes one. Most of the costumes in Trench are more or less eccentric make-up looks and unusual masks. They look a lot more like Cirque du Soleil costumes than Halloween costumes.
2. Characters can have multiple costume/face-paint/mask changes throughout the month. No one will be forced into these - but it is strongly, culturally encouraged for everyone's safety to dress up!

CONTENT WARNINGS: Psychological-based curse, feelings of intense loneliness, mental health.

CONTENT WARNINGS: Psychological-based curse, feelings of intense loneliness, mental health.
It is said that the Blood Moon reminds Cloverfield of those he has lost over the decades. They say that the howling wind is actually the sound of Cloverfield's cries and there seems to be some truth to that. He can be seen wandering the Farther Shores and watching the moon. If you seek out Cloverfield and offer him comfort and companionship, he will bless you with a worn picture of a loved one or someone you miss desperately or even just a place you miss...Even if it's impossible for such a picture to exist.
Of course, not everyone will visit Cloverfield. Cloverfield's loneliness begins to curse the city of Trench. Sleepers will be impacted the most heavily as their blood will directly react to this curse. Sleepers who have a good sense of relationship may be able to avoid the curse, but those who often feel lonely or homesick will start to feel worse and worse as the days go by.
Eventually, their loneliness begins to manifest as a corpse-like version of themselves or the person they care about most. This corpse follows them around everywhere like a shadow. You won't notice your own Loneliness, but other people might, especially palebloods, Night Walkers, and Disciples. These corpses don't seem to care about anything or anyone and at first don't seem violent...But eventually, this Loneliness becomes consuming.
Once it does, you too will contort, and you and your Loneliness will soon be crawling about on all fours, blood floating out of you in thin streams. You'll be lost to your feelings of loneliness, stalking the streets with your Loneliness, looking for companionship. Of course, you're completely corrupt at this point, so your version of finding companionship most likely involves accidentally suffocating someone or other violent actions. Some people may never become violent once they are in the Final Stage, but the blood constantly flowing from them will create heavy blood pollution and may draw in far more dangerous creatures. You really don't want Lonely People walking around!
Better start some conversations - even if these Lonely People are creepy as hell. But, then again, they are just lonely. Hopefully, you will find peace of mind and find your people. Hopefully, you will banish loneliness...For the time being.
QUICK FACTS
1. This curse will impact people who are more isolated than others. Interaction with other people or animals will alleviate the curse and may completely stop it for some.
2. You can stop the curse at the corpse stage by confronting a Sleeper and opening up an emotional conversation about their loneliness. This may not always work, but the more the conversation works for the Sleeper, the more effective. The corpse will fleck away once the curse has been reversed.
3. Curses can continue to come back throughout October, but once you've experienced it once, it's less likely to occur again.
4. The Final Stage of the curse is the hardest to stop and most of the time, it's easiest to just kill the Cursed. It's easier to kill them than talk them out of their loneliness, but it is not impossible to talk them out of it. It requires dedication, patience, and some serious cleverness on how to survive a monster trying to kill you at the same time.
5. Loneliness can be widely interpreted once in the Final Stage. People should generally still look like themselves. How people act in this stage can vary from character to character and should be centric to how characters deal with their loneliness in general. If they're prone to shutting people out, then maybe their Loneliness is aloof and distant. If they're prone to clinging to toxic people, then maybe their Loneliness is accidentally violent. It's open to interpretation.

CONTENT WARNINGS: Ghosts, Themes of death.
Unfortunately, not everyone can gain control of their loneliness. As blood is spilled throughout Trench over loneliness, this blood pollution festers and begins to claim poor souls. Corruption leads way to beasthood and people lost to this find themselves transforming into familiar, legendary ghost stories of old-world lore. These Legendary Ghosts come out primarily at night. As the Black Parade established, anyone who keeps their faces disguised with make-up or masks will be completely safe from the Legendary Ghosts. Though if you go after a Legendary Ghost in a costume, you'll only be safe until you attack them. It's not a bad move for a sneak attack though!
...But those who forgot to dress up or felt like such superstitions wouldn't work...
Congratulations, you might come across the path of a Dullahan: a headless horseman carrying a whip made from a spinal cord, ready to throw basins of blood on you and draw in other beasts. Or maybe you encounter a far more subtle Legendary Ghost. Maybe you see a hitchhiker on the side of the road and decide to give them a ride, but when you look in your rearview mirror, they are no longer in your backseat. While most of these Legendary Ghosts are intending to harm you and spread more blood pollution, some just seem to be genuinely lost souls, lost to corruption, lost to their own failures and loneliness. In some cases, freeing them is protecting yourself and others, but in other cases, freeing them is just simple kindness.
You may meet a ghost bride who is waiting eternally for her wedding by one of the shrines in Cassandra. Maybe you meet a ghostly scholar at the Archives in Gaze. The spirits range widely and seem to haunt every corner of Trench - including your own homes. The only real way to deter a Legendary Ghost from your home is by heavily decorating your home with things like jack-o-lanterns, fake blood splatters, fake gravestones, and various other death-centric decor. This seems to repel Legendary Ghosts as they see it as a reminder of their own fate. Some are angered by the decorations while others are terrified by them and seem incapable of telling the difference between real blood and fake blood.
QUICK FACTS
1. These corrupt souls can be saved through blood rituals/magic/ghost banishings relying on blood artifacts. This will usually put the soul to rest - it will not bring people "back to life."
2. While it is mostly Trenchies turning into these beings, Sleepers can also be transformed into Legendary Ghosts. We provide a general outline, but the idea is that people are turning into legendary ghost stories so you can play with your own ideas/canons.
While Trenchies cannot be saved, we leave it up to you if a Sleeper could be brought back to themselves or if they will have to "die" to be cured of their Legendary Ghost status.
3. You can use famous Legendary Ghosts from around the world. We gave a few examples, but have fun with this! The Legendary Ghost-like creature you go with should generally be "ghost-like" / have to do with death specifically. They do not need to be exclusively evil/violent spirits, but many are.

And while the thought of opening up a bit more about things will probably forever feel wrong... he has had the thought since Deerington started crumbling apart, that he needed to tell people the truth. Or at least certain parts of it. It's safer that way, and now... especially if this place is going to fuck around with him and Paimon in new ways. )
Well... This is kind of weird to talk about. I guess I've been kinda... trying to keep it hidden. But maybe it's better if I don't, in this place. With all the weird shit going on. ( Peter gives a soft sigh. ) I didn't exactly have powers before this place, but I do have.... something inside of me? And this thing... does have powers, so it might be that this place is reacting to that, somehow? Not me, but... the thing inside me.
( It does make one wonder why they all ended up with different types of blood. Was there some reason for it, or was it just completely random? )
Huh.... you and Luna are both witches, and you both have Paleblood. I wonder if that's.... a coincidence or if maybe the powers you already had before, have something to do with it? Me and Fern do have a couple things in common, too.
no subject
Heck, it already happened to her last month].
Something inside you. Like a...a demon, right? Not like a person. Just have to make that distinction.
[She's met Oscar, so that was also a thing].
And you think it's reacting to having the blood magic? Has it done anything else lately?
[Luz had no idea about why some people had different kinds of blood, but she sure would love to find out].
Maybe? It's possible, I wouldn't rule it out! Personally I don't really think I needed extra magic than what I can already do, but I guess this place thought otherwise.
no subject
Y-yeah. That's what it is exactly. A... demon. ( He says the word almost cautiously, like he's afraid of it. He is, and he swallows, fingers anxiously rubbing the sides of his jeans. )
It's been kind of... weird, ever since we came here. Even weirder than before, I mean. Like um... ( He pauses, trying to describe it. Realising that up until now, he hasn't really tried to put it into word form. )
It's like we're closer, somehow. Like I feel him.... more than I ever did before. And some strange things have been happening to me. I've been making stuff... fly through the air, like moving it with my mind? Only I don't mean to, and I can't control it. It's like his powers.. are kind of bleeding through into me, now? Or something. So maybe..... it's my new blood, doing something to us.
( He's terrified of the thought, what that could... mean. Peter, still sitting on the ground, slowly pulls his knees up to his chest, wrapping his arms around them. )
I've been afraid to tell people. I don't want to... scare them.
no subject
So something in Trench is making him a little more restless then? If you think about it, maybe that's not so surprising. Deerington was all about containing us in a dream, and it was Julia's powers that were being held back. Here none of that is really holding us back, but WE'RE the one's that are different. So maybe he's able to be close to you now, and your body is reacting to the fear of that?
[Luz knew she didn't know well enough to say what it was, how could she? But Luz could certainly guess, and given the situation, she was at least trying to see where it was possible to fill in the gaps].
Whether people get scared or not is going to depend on them, Peter. A lot of us come from worlds that already sound weird, so its possible your own fears are also being activated by your blood. I'm not saying it's your fault, but maybe it'll help if you just let people know you're more than just one person. I have a friend named Oscar who's had to explain something like to people himself, and they seem to take it well enough.
[Something else occurred to Luz though].
I guess it depends on maybe one other thing: that demon. What exactly does your demon want?
no subject
Especially since it's clearly getting worse. Throwing up live ants feels like... kind of a huge red flag. )
No, you're right. Honestly, most of the people I have told... they take it pretty well. I guess they're used to a lot crazier stuff than I was back in my world. ( It's still shocking to him just how much his friends here have continued to accept him, despite the whole demonic possession thing. But with the shifts in him and Paimon in this new place... he does worry about it a lot. People have gotten severely hurt by the demon before.
The question gives him another pause, Peter anxiously gazing down at his hands. )
It used to be that he wanted me gone, but... someone stopped him from wanting that. But now?
....He's been wanting to learn more. About magic and witches and stuff. Something happened to him, he got really messed up and lost, so he's... trying to re-learn.
( It all comes out awkwardly, nervously, voice shaking a little. Peter's so rarely voiced any of this to anyone. And what he says next is his worse fear. )
But I think deep down.... under everything.. maybe he's still supposed to take over me. I think that's what he was always meant to do. And maybe now that he's here, and his powers are coming back... maybe that's gonna happen, whether he wants to or not. Maybe that's why my body's reacting so badly.
no subject
[Luz knew full well she hadn't even met everyone, and those she had all had their own complex and strange stories. Some of them even intertwined once they were here with other strange people. After all, that was how Peter and Luna had gotten together in the first place, right]?
Take over you? That sounds serious. I'm pretty sure you don't want that happening, right? If you were taken over by a demon, how could you be YOU? Is it completely impossible for the two of you to share the same body?
[Might be better to see if there was a peaceful solution instead of an outright takeover situation].
no subject
The smile's slowly fading away again, and the older teen swallows. It hurts to think about this, but he's finding himself grateful to have someone to talk to about it. Luz is very kind, and...she listens, and he's still getting used to having people like that. )
I guess I'd stop being... me. Or maybe I'd still be in here somewhere, just trapped? I'm... not sure. ( He seemingly escaped that fate back home by coming here... but who's to say it isn't still going to happen someday? His situation with the demon is so complicated. )
I don't know about the long term. For now, we've been managing to share ever since Deerington, even though we're still kind of... learning how. ( He admits, brow knitting. ) He can be... extremely dangerous. The only one who can really keep him in line is Luna.
( Here, the boy gives a little scoff. ) He likes her a lot. It's creepy.
no subject
[It was very much creepy town if she thought about it, and was more than a little glad that she wasn't there anymore. Way too many bad memories, and too many that had followed here here].
That's a pretty hard thing to think about, Peter. I wouldn't like it if a friend of mine was running the risk of losing their self from another entity, even if it was one I was sharing my body with. I hope the two of you can coexist, but if you ever get scared that he might take over, maybe you might want to look into an exorcism. Those exist in your world, right?
[She didn't even want to THINK about the demon liking Luna, because what that could mean was enough to bring about some major creepoid vibes in Luz].
no subject
(Unbeknownst to Peter, Paimon is quite curious of Luz and hosts a certain respect for her after learning she was a witch and witnessing some of her magic... He's completely fine for her to learn more about him.) )
I looked into stuff like that, back in Deerington. Different... types of exorcisms. But it's really complicated. He's sort ofโ extremely powerful? He's like a king of Hell. The people I talked to about it are... afraid to try to remove him. Afraid of what it could do to me.
( The process of Paimon being put inside of him was no simple thing; it required a very long, intensive ritual. Peter was prepped and groomed for this for... years. Maybe even his whole life. To undo that.... )
...I'm not even sure it's possible. ( He sighs softly, looks up to the other teen. Something breaks through, now that he's talking about this โ a sadness. Peter's... tired. There's a strange defeated feeling in him about it lately. )
Now I'm just trying to keep him from hurting anyone. And keep him... happy, I guess. I don't know what else to do.
no subject
Now her mind traveled to Luna, who cared about Peter dearly, and how that news must be affecting her. Now that they'd come to Trench, they'd seem to have made it easier for Paimon to eventually take full control of his host. And being a king of hell. That was a heck of a lot. Too much for Peter].
There has to be some way to coexist! The idea of you just going away...that's not something anyone would want, right? Maybe there's a way to find out in these archives, something that'll make it so you don't go away! I can't accept the idea that one day you'll just disappear!
[And she bet that Luna probably wasn't about to accept that idea either].
