Gather Up Your Loved Ones, Gather Up Your Friends
Warnings: Nox. So many Nox. All of the Nox. And also violence.
Location: All over the city
Characters: Everyone, and also so many Nox. Did we mention Nox?
When: Not long after the repairs on the sinkhole start
Summary: People getting kidnapped by Nox. Yikes.
The repairs on the sinkhole have been going well, but somehow, the city hasn't been the same. There's a heaviness in the air, like a thunderstorm building on the horizon. The normal sounds of a city night have given way to hoots and howls of creatures. The Nox are restless at night and quiet during the day. The local people are opting to stay inside when they don't absolutely have to go out.
Something is coming. Something big.
Then it happens, on a unseasonably warm fall day. High noon and the streets start rumbling, the violent rattling of the manhole covers loud enough to drown out thought. Then, shadowy tentacles burst out the street from every underground entrance, blindly grabbing for whoever they can snatch, overpowering their unlucky victims and bodily dragging them into the nearest available manhole or sewer entrance. If you’re lucky, you get away. If not...enjoy your private tour of the unending blackness and horrifying whispers that is the sewers.
[OOC: Feel free to play out your character's kidnapping or reactions to the chaos however you want in this log! If you want an NPC Nox to react to, just let a mod know!]

And he couldn't stop it while it was happening, because he didn't figure that the bit grabbing her wasn't the part he needed to burn. And there was nothing he could do about it now, except...
"I gotta get down there and save her."

Just thinking about going down there again has his pulse racing and his skin going cold, McCOy slumps back against the wall, pressing his hands to his face to try to steady himself and slow his breathing.
Right.
"Not alone. We'll do a check in, someone will, when this is over and the streets are clear. Go down organized but- I'm. I gotta stay up here."
