Omegafriends RP

As promised, the time portal opens into the London, England of 1611. The evidence seems to back this up - the local fashion, the coins with Queen Elizabeth's face on them, the accents of the residents as they gossip on the streets about William Shakespeare's latest play with the spirits and the comic butler and throw garbage out of their windows and sell questionable sausages on the street corners and so on. The 1600s was/is not a hygienic era for England.

Speaking of local fashion, at least the Omegafriends won't be sticking out much in modern garments of spandex and frills - any outfits worn through will be adapted to a more suitable style of the times. Exactly how suitable seems to be up to the whims of fate - a Pretty Cure outfit might be transformed into an equally ruffly concoction with a long skirt and bustle, or it might become a completely plain and nondescript dress, or it might completely skip out, leaving the heroine in question in the middle of London looking like a member of a travelling circus. Dr. Jefferson's official scientific explanation for this consists of a baffled shrug.

One thing's for sure: Lady Blue has to be here, and that means one thing: Hunting for clues to her presence! A woman towing a building the size of the Omegabase can't have vanished without a trace... right?

[[OOC: Welcome... to the past! Comment anywhere on this post to continue your investigation, chat with each other, or just enjoy the sights of 17th-century London.

There are a number of people who claim to have seen someone matching Lady Blue's description around, and following the leads will eventually lead the group to the Globe. What they'll find if they investigate it... well, stay tuned!]]

Midnight, the exact time when Lady Blue promised to make her move. Something happens, but probably not what anyone was expecting.

To anyone guarding the statue: As the clock strikes twelve, Protector's marble head splits open, revealing some kind of glowing orb. It glows brighter, and brighter, then a deafening VOIP fills the air... and there are a lot more people in the park.

To anyone who happens to be in the Omegabase: At the exact moment of VOIP, whatever you were doing, suddenly you (and possibly some of your personal belongings) are transported to Venture Park. Everyone - heroes, technicians, even Protector himself.

It seems that Lady Blue's game is trickier than she laid it out to be...

[[So, event details! Until Lady Blue is caught:

-All secret elevators to the Omegabase instead open to stone walls. Blasting through them will just reveal more stone - it's as if the base was never there to begin with.
-On each of these stone walls is a portion of a message, encoded into strange symbols. If the Omegafriends are dilligent in recording all the pieces, assemble the message, then crack the code, the message reads: "Totus mundus agit histrionem".
-Which items you still have and which were stolen along with the base is up to you.
-The Omegawatch network still works, thankfully.
-Over the next week, people can find any number of inactive time portals hidden around the city. For the moment, without the Omegabase, using these portals is impossible - however, there will be another post later with more on these.
-The orb hidden in the head of the statue is now inert. However, some clever types may find it worth studying.

That's all for now. Good luck!]]

Well, it seems like Venture City is safe again - and we owe it all to our ever-faithful protectors, the Omegafriends! I'd like to extend my personal thanks to the heroes who repelled Baron Von Tyrannosaur's invasion, and beyond that, we'll be erecting a new statue in Venture Park to commemorate the occasion.

The Intergalactic Police Department sent a ship Earth's way to help us with deporting the Baron, so I doubt we'll be seeing him again any time soon. As for the less sentient dinosaurs who were left behind, well... let's just say that Venture City has an exciting new announcement to make in the next few months.

Until then, keep on fighting the good fight, Omegafriends!

[Relatedly, a large-scale construction project - not even affiliated with any supervillains - appears to have begun on an island off the coast of Venture City. What is it? Only time will tell! Stay vigilant until the next battle - same Omegatime, same Omegachannel!]

This is Dr. Jefferson again. There's been a second development with the transmitter!

With the help of Kerbal-X's space network, we were able to pinpoint the other end of the transmission signal. It appears to be some sort of huge asteroid... and it's on a collision course with Venture City!

However, we're also detecting minute radio waves coming from the asteroid, and on top of that I swear it's adjusted its course twice since we started monitoring it. What it comes down to is, I don't think it's actually an asteroid at all.

The object is estimated to arrive three days from now. We're going to keep trying to contact it, but if what Dr. Devious said was true, we need to get ready for the real crisis to begin...

Who: The Kid, Black Rock Shooter, The Ice King, Peacock, Darkwing Duck and up to three other heroes
What: Investigating the device that Velasquez found
When: The evening of the 9th
Where: Underneath the Venture City High School Gymnasium
