sinfulmodsEvent: Only If In A Dream
With strange changes to the time of sunrise and set come strange changes to the City itself. It’s only natural for this sort of bizarre behaviour to foretell something a little ominously, after all; the City has never been one to spring changes upon its citizens.
Around 3 PM on May 1, the sun will begin to set. Too early, yet again, but with another little change: instead of being a beautiful sight of pinks and yellows streaking across a blue sky, it will appear almost as though a thunderstorm is coming up on the horizon, rolling in at precisely the same time. The sky will, for half an hour, be the dark, angry blue-purple of a bruise, with orange trying to peek through in places until dark finally falls. Shortly thereafter, the rain that looked like it was coming in will fall in a booming thunderstorm until the evening.
The next day, the citizens of the City of Sin get to find out precisely what that odd sunset and accompanying rainstorm foretold: at random intervals, people begin to fall asleep wherever they are. It doesn’t last for too long - five minutes in most cases, though some people can experience naps up to half an hour - but it’s definitely inconvenient. It doesn’t matter where you are or what you were doing, if the urge comes upon you to sleep, then sleep you will. There’s no fighting the drooping of eyelids this time.
Of course, what’s even more inconvenient is the fact that these brief naps appear to trigger something in the network devices that displays whatever characters happen to be dreaming about at the time. Hopefully it’s nothing incriminating.
Fortunately, everything in the City must come to an end, and late on May 6, another thunderstorm will roll in, lasting the entire night. When everyone wakes up the next morning, the strange City-wide narcolepsy won’t be a problem any more, but the results of it will remain.
What no one knows - not even the Magistrates, or so they claim - is that this is a very direct response to some of the political goings-on of late. Someone isn’t happy.
This is a mod-run plot, taking place from May 1 to May 6 in game, and February 14 to March 3 OOCly. There will be an announcement in the State of the City to remind players, and a short mod notice to declare the event officially open on the day of.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask below. Plotting here is optional but not necessary, as a little bit of surprise might be fun!
