So i seem to have a bad habit of doing my work on this site and pressing the wrong buttons and losing all my work. Post is up but because of a few hiccups It took longer than expected and then of course Star Wars came out yesterday so that ruled out putting up my post last night. (Movie was amazing by the way).

Did some final edits and last minute changes and now it's up.

So a few things about this explosion: Everyone in the game should have seen the beam of light but only those in the lower ring will have felt it. The shockwave is not unlike that of an EMP for electronics running on Synergy. All power is out in the area. Because it amplifies all forms of spirit energy, those who are sensitive to it are effected. Potential benders can now bend, permanently. Those who already know how to bend may accidentally start bending without meaning to though this effect is temporary and will last for a very short amount of time.

The shadow thing and the Pink mist. The idea here is that because of the imbalance in the Human and Spirit Worlds, spirits are being effected negatively turning them into Dark Spirits like those from the series. This one is one of the more dangerous spirits... it's a piece of the Fog Spirit from the Valley of the Fog of Lost Souls.

[quote=dhttp://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Fog_of_Lost_Souls]"The Fog of Lost Souls is a boundless prison for humans located within the Spirit World. It is inhabited by a sentient fog spirit that can infect the minds of individuals, effectively driving them insane by imprisoning them in their own darkest memories."[/quote]

For the purposes of our game, this spirit has graduated beyond just driving people insane. Because it's sentient and it feels the misery from the misuse of spirits, it has become enraged itself and now transfers that rage to those it effects. Victims become mad and are filled with a considerable thirst for vengeance and murder.

The pink mist is only visible in the immediate area around the blast radius and will dissipate rather quickly but not before affecting a few individuals. These individuals will need to be put down. Because RSF security forces will not be able to get to the scene in time, [b]TWO[/b] of those affected will reach the soup kitchen. Have fun :D

The shadow is for now a visual representation of the Fog Spirit controlling them. It will dissipate when the individual is put down. As a side note, calming the attached spirit will cleanse the person and essentially save them, but no one can do that at the moment.
