Scene Zero Repercussions

Notes: I've been wanting to do these for a while, but they're a lot of work. Might go back to doing Acts 0 to 3 and Scenes 1 to 2 in this format as well alter. However, as none of the regular players were at Scene Zero, and there were repercussions, here they are.

Minor Event 3, April 2013
1932


- An impromptu council of Winged was gathered in MINITru Lodge 21, to discuss the idea of Dreamers using flight. The almost unanimous answer was a resounding negative.

- A Loon & Mockingbird were able to help Amelia Earhart make a name for herself, yet meddling and sabotage from others led to her leaving, and never returning. Her mount / plane was a huge fire-breathing mechanical horse, named Bessie - a Goose named Uncle Antonio believes he knows where this mysterious beast came from...

- Due to efforts from The Green, Charles Lindbergh has taken a step down from aerial exploration to spend time with his son. In an effort to enforce this, Green & MINITru agents tracked down the missing child to a Pyramid Construct belonging to the Pillars of Light. The Construct was destroyed, the child rescued, and returned to his family. Lindbergh has retired from the public eye,a nd fled with his family to Europe. Rumours say that his son was kidnapped, but further rumours say this is a publicity stunt to allow the Lindberghs to escape...

- Captain Jeanette Piccard's efforts to explore the Stratosphere were hampered by a trigger-happy Parrot who shot down her balloon. It is believed the attempt was still eventually successfully made, but Jeanette stood down as pilot, allowing her husband Jean to go instead. Although still highly respected, Piccard's setback has severely hampered American attempts at space flight...

- In an effort to be the first to bridge the gap between the Dream and the Abyss, a Raven and her two Magpie Students have built a colossal, star-spanning door. Lush, beautiful and sparkling with gilt & jewels, the portal can only be opened by a single, specific key. This key is physical, and belongs to the Raven in question - it can be obtained, on permission. As such, the Mourning Veil now have access to the Abyss, and the colour beyond it, while all other Coteries look on jealously...

- ...however, the Xenos are now severely hampered as there is a huge wall they cannot pass blocking them from the Dream, and their Ambassadors from them. Communications with Xenos Patrons are difficult, and any new Xenos entering the Dream has to pay a very large toll.

- Pahl'Muun, the spirit of Parliament, has accepted Insurance from the Riverstates, sold by Kingfisher Mercy, on his property of the Parliament. If the Parliament should be destroyed, the Riverstates, in particular Mercy's House of Silent Stream, should pay up enough to rebuild it. Considering thea ge and contents of the Parliament, this sum might be slightly ridiculous...
