Sounds like a Winter Lantern. I've never really given it any thought about what Frenzy feels like.

Compare to DS3, where it felt as though there were more mimics than chests, and somehow Bloodborne comes out ahead on the pleasantness scale.

I just realized: It's not just parahumans that are getting hit with insight, but also their Shards. This is so not-good that I can't even express it.

You know, I cannot help but feel sorry for Scion right now. Even if he wins, he's going to end up crippled by the shared dream the Shards are trapped in-if he doesn't end up being sucked into them too, that is.

Coil leaned back into his chair, hands rising to cup his chin. In another version of now, he was Tomas Calvert, pulling overtime at the PRT to help coordinate relief efforts and interrogations brought about by the Quarantine. There weren't enough hours in the day for all the work that had to be done, even for him, and that was an unpleasant taste in his throat, wasn't it? Still, at least he could take his current Now to check on things and plan out interactions ahead of time, to keep whichever Now and Then he chose to continue with running as smoothly as possible.
Coil rose from his chair, all whipcord limbs with origins made obscure by the bodysuit marked by his symbol, and exited the small room attached to his office in favor of a different bunker. Mr. Pitter met him at the door, as expected, and accompanied him into the bedroom he'd had furnished for his most prized acquisition. His pet was on her bed, with an icepack laid across her forehead and her face scrunched into an unpleasant grimace, as she had been the last several times he'd come to see her. She stirred at the sound of his approach, but didn't get up from her swoon.
"Hello, Pet."
She whimpered, but still refused to rise, so Coil walked closer and sat on the bed next to her. He ran a gloved hand through her hair, and Dinah Alcott turned away from the caress.
"My poor dear. Is your head still hurting? Mr. Pitter can get you some candy for it... though, I'd like you to answer a few questions for me, first."
"No. No questions, I want my candy, please."
"In a minute, my sweet. Can you tell me the chance my grand plan is a success, to one decimal point?"
"Seventeen point three percent. I want my candy."
Coil bit down on the grimace, and let his fingers bite into his Pet's scalp, just a tad. Just so she'd know he was serious. "Chance of--"
"Stop, please, I want my candy, I don't want to look at the numbers, I--"
"Pet."
Dinah went very still. Coil resumed stroking the girl's hair, and she tensed further.
"Chance of trouble at my base--"
"You don't understand. They keep changing, it doesn't matter when you ask, the numbers keep changing!" She wailed, her composure breaking, and Coil frowned beneath his mask. He thought she'd been trained up better than that. Ah, well-- it had been a stressful week for the girl. Perhaps a small lapse could be forgiven.
"What keeps changing, Pet? Tell me whats bothering you."
"The big numbers, they keep changing, and I don't understand why! First it was five years, then two, and now it's-- it's just gone, I don't understand, please, I want my candy so I can stop thinking about it!"
"...in a moment, Pet. what number is that for? I don't think you've mentioned it."
"Everything, it's the number for everything dying, everything ending." She abruptly sat up, tearing the icepack away and staring at Coil with wide, bloodshot eyes. "Everything. Everyone, dead. It was a big number, and I hated it, but it started trickling down every month and now it's gone, and I don't know where it went." She hiccuped, breath hitching, and for once actually leaned into the press of his hand against her head, desperate. "I don't understand. I'm scared."
She was nearly inconsolable, after that, and eventually Coil resigned himself to waiting for her to sleep off her candy before he could question the girl again, and Coil went back to his office and sat at his desk, and mulled over what little he'd managed to get from her. An extinction-level event, once she'd known about but never mentioned? It... was possible, he supposed. The Endbringers were proof enough of mankind's current helplessness against the tides of fate. It couldn't be a natural disaster, or the odds wouldn't change as they had been, which left human or parahuman-made events. That was a little easier to believe, and he made note of the need to press his Pet further for the details. Wartime profiteering would be a welcome addition to his coffers, if nothing else, but from the sound of it something had been averted, not sparked, and that was curious.
It wasn't until later, much later, when in one Now he was getting ready for bed and in another Now he was downing a set of caffeine pills and settling down to watch a half-dozen news feeds, that another possibility occurred to him. His Pet had said that the numbers for such an event had vanished, not reduced to zero. Where had the probability gone, then? After all, Coil's own power was a proof of concept, if anything was:
If one possibility was no longer real, then another surely had surely become so.

Interesting that Scions rampage is stopped (or stalled for the length of Dinahs life). So basically Old One Taylor is to blame, and Bet becomes Yharnam 2.0.

As if the gangs weren't bad enough. Now they've got that crazy serial killer chick (What happened to her anyway? Haven't heard about her in a while), that monster that attacked the Wards, and now we've got invisible pseudo-Endbringers parking themselves on top of schools.
I'm surprised that there hasn't been a mass exodus out of Brockton Bay already.

So that 'thing'... it reminds me the creature that attacked the wards. Does that mean we can expect even more of them in the future?
And they are getting stronger... and can move around invisibly too.
Is the PTR watching Blasto/Bonesaw/Nilbog/etc? This has to be a really crazy bio-tinker. At least I hope so. I don't want to live in an Endbringer breeding ground.
My best wishes to all those who have lost friends and relatives in the wake of this disaster.

Mammalia, she offed herself after a rip roaring run through BB, several dozen LEOs, and a couple heroes. Heard it from a buddy in hazmat who was part of the clean up. She blew her brains out onto Assault, there's a rumor she was a girl he knew in his civies.

Well, things are escalating. Looks like they're going to try and contain the city like those hit by the Simurgh. The problem is that judging from other posts, whatever mindfuckery is going on over there can be spread through the video, and for whatever reason no one's trying to suppress it. It may be too little, too late.
I just watched it again. Before I could barely see an outline. Now I see a faint image, like a mirage. And I'm starting to see things flitting about at the edge of my vision.

Update on the Amygdala Mastering situation, some British Tinker's just released a piece of software designed to detect videos and photos that display the Amygdala and block them before you see them, Adblock for the Amygdala basically. Link to download here. Right now it just looks at the media in question and compares them to a database containing as many recordings of the Amygdala she could find and intercept any that match but she's hoping to update it with image recognition capability so it can block recordings of the Amygdala that aren't in the database yet.
Also if you're having trouble reaching sites based in Japan you're not alone, some Japanese Tinker group called "Kanto no Chogijutsusha" decided to go vigilante and cut all the undersea internet cables leading to Japan and takedown any Japanese websites which show the Amygdala. Literally the only source of internet in Japan right now is satellite and even that's being disrupted by all the jammers they put up. The government's managed to arrest most of them with the rest going into hiding but the cables are still cut and a lot of sites got wiped out completely and they're still in the middle of taking down the jammers, apparently there's some tinkertech stealth aspect to them. The official statement says that the last of the jammers should be taken out by the end of they day but repairing the cables going to take a while, two days just to get a single cable back up and several weeks for all of them, they had a real number done on them by these Kanto guys. Link to the full news story here.

I am able and willing to spend a minimum of six figures on any footage of the supervillain known as "Bloodmoon" using her weapons. The exact amount will depend on the quality of the footage. I am particularly interested in the weapon she used to kill Hookwolf.

Brockton Bay: Shit Gets Worse. News at Eleven.
Edit: In retrospect, I intensely regret the above comment. Good luck Brocktonites. My hopes are with you.

You know, I'm not even surprised.
I should have known something like this would happen on the King of Pissholes, Brockton Bay itself.

Well, shit.
As if the gangs weren't bad enough. Now they've got that crazy serial killer chick (What happened to her anyway? Haven't heard about her in a while), that monster that attacked the Wards, and now we've got invisible pseudo-Endbringers parking themselves on top of schools.
I'm surprised that there hasn't been a mass exodus out of Brockton Bay already.

Replied on June 3, 2011:
So that 'thing'... it reminds me the creature that attacked the wards. Does that mean we can expect even more of them in the future?
And they are getting stronger... and can move around invisibly too.
Is the PTR watching Blasto/Bonesaw/Nilbog/etc? This has to be a really crazy bio-tinker. At least I hope so. I don't want to live in an Endbringer breeding ground.
My best wishes to all those who have lost friends and relatives in the wake of this disaster.

Sweet merciful Christ, what is that thing!?!? It looks like someone took the aliens from that one Aleph film and made it part spider. BB has always been a sh!thole, but lately it's just gotten even worse. I didn't even think that was POSSIBLE. I am so glad I took that job in Detroit. I just hope things can wait until I leave on Monday before it throws more manure onto the fan.

Just watched one of those videos. Anyone else find it hard to look at? Not in the ugly way (though it's got that covered to) but I found it hard to focus on at first, and when I finally got a good look at it I got the mother of all migraines. A stranger case 53 maybe? I need a lie down.

Let me get this straight... That thing was invisible ontop of a Winslow in the middle of the city?
My god, how long was it there?! I drive by there on deliveries every now and then.
Urgh, just got majorly creeped out.
Wish I had enough money to leave Brockton.

Mammalia, she offed herself after a rip roaring run through BB, several dozen LEOs, and a couple heroes. Heard it from a buddy in hazmat who was part of the clean up. She blew her brains out onto Assault, there's a rumor she was a girl he knew in his civies.
Edit: Oh. Oh shit. Girl, crazy aura, mutating effect, school, missing people, strange monster... those aren't dots I want to be right about connecting.

Ugh, I heard about that. Supposedly there was a leaked video from a nearby police car cam, but if there was it got deleted pretty quick. I think a few people in the Bloodmoon thread said they watched it, though.

Well, looks like someone's decided to give this thing a nickname. Not sure where it started but a lot of websites with those videos have started calling it "Amygdala". I favour "the unholy lovechild of slender man and a xenomoph", but I suppose that's too long winded.

Anyone watching the news? They just declared martial law. Nobody's allowed to leave the Bay. And Alexandria is apparently sticking around to help enforce it, in case the E88 or someone gets a bright idea of being opportunistic pricks during a state of emergency.
► mammalia14
Replied on June 3, 2011:
Well, things are escalating. Looks like they're going to try and contain the city like those hit by the Simurgh. The problem is that judging from other posts, whatever mindfuckery is going on over there can be spread through the video, and for whatever reason no one's trying to suppress it. It may be too little, too late.
I just watched it again. Before I could barely see an outline. Now I see a faint image, like a mirage. And I'm starting to see things flitting about at the edge of my vision.
I'm scared, guys.

Oh wow, a memetic infection?! How does that even work? I gotta stop taking breaks from PHO, all the cool stuff happens when I'm away from my laptop.
I'm gonna start compiling links for related videos, see if I can't figure out the transmission vectors. And the PRT thinks this is related to that Bloodmoon cape, right? I wonder if they've autopsied her yet.

Update on the Amygdala Mastering situation, some British Tinker's just released a piece of software designed to detect videos and photos that display the Amygdala and block them before you see them, Adblock for the Amygdala basically. Link to download here. Right now it just looks at the media in question and compares them to a database containing as many recordings of the Amygdala she could find and intercept any that match but she's hoping to update it with image recognition capability so it can block recordings of the Amygdala that aren't in the database yet.
Also if you're having trouble reaching sites based in Japan you're not alone, some Japanese Tinker group called "Kanto no Chogijutsusha" decided to go vigilante and cut all the undersea internet cables leading to Japan and takedown any Japanese websites which show the Amygdala. Literally the only source of internet in Japan right now is satellite and even that's being disrupted by all the jammers they put up. The government's managed to arrest most of them with the rest going into hiding but the cables are still cut and a lot of sites got wiped out completely and they're still in the middle of taking down the jammers, apparently there's some tinkertech stealth aspect to them. The official statement says that the last of the jammers should be taken out by the end of they day but repairing the cables going to take a while, two days just to get a single cable back up and several weeks for all of them, they had a real number done on them by these Kanto guys. Link to the full news story here.

This woman is a genius. A fucking genius.
Also, news from glorious New York City. Legend gave one of his big speeches about an hour ago. Here is a link to the official version they released to the media. Basically he's doing his usual thing of promising to help people and that shit. Though the rest of the Triumvirate might be getting down in Brockton at some point in the future. There are a metric shit ton of travel restrictions in all of New England until they've got a better idea of what's going on though.
Can I just repeat how glad I am that I got on a bus early in this mess?

Just saw some asshole dressed like a copycat of Bloodmoon over on Stanton st.
Seriously, I don't get why people do shit like this, dress up like villains or whatever. Everything about the Bloodmoon was an ugly affair, do we really need to glorify a murder-suicide cape? Bit mean-spirited, but I hope they get arrested. Things are tense enough these days.
(Baller work on the costume, though. Looked damn legit.)

I hope to God it's just a copycat. I know that blowing one's brains out in front of a dozen witnesses is pretty damn definitive, but I recall reading that Bloodmoon got mulched by Hookwolf back when she first started, and she popped up hale and hearty a month later.
Just sayin'.
Any word on what the PRT did with the body?
► TheAmazingBaker
Replied on June 8, 2011:
PRT's keeping tight lipped about it. Probably for the best, what with the 'Amygdala' video driving people nuts apparently...
Though I heard from a friend in the city that apparently the body disappeared, so... Yeah, fuck this place I want out as soon as possible.

Uh, you sure serial murder chick Bloodmoon was dead? The PRT's not commenting or anything. If Bloodmoon was realy dead and gone they should have put up a conference and chalk another one for the board. Would have been a massive PR boost that.
The fact they didn't means that 1) either there's something more going on or 2) Bloodmoon didn't kick in the bucket yet, even with a bullet to the face.

I don't usually conduct business over the PHO forums, but with the current level of security in Brockton Bay, I don't want to risk exposing my usual lines of communication.
I am able and willing to spend a minimum of six figures on any footage of the supervillain known as "Bloodmoon" using her weapons. The exact amount will depend on the quality of the footage. I am particularly interested in the weapon she used to kill Hookwolf.
Contact me via private message. An associate assures me that they will be secure for the next 24 hours. Do not contact me after then.

So the Slaughterhouse Nine were sighted just North of Boston today.
It sounds just like them to come and add to the chaos that is Brockton Bay right now. I'm sure the Protectorate is keeping the possibility quiet as to avoid mass riots, but I advice everything to stay away from windows, TVs and computers, etc. as much as possible.
At least now we know somebody will be able to escape the quarantine. :-/

BB's "YOU'RE FUCKED" dial is perpetually set to broken, S9 was sighted North of Boston so that could only mean they're on their way to our dinky little port city. Which means I probably need something bigger than a shotgun. Any suggestions?

Oh god no. Taylor just triggered the fuck out of Assault.
And by that I mean in the our world sense, not the power sense.
Then again, if anything was going to push him to second trigger...

UnwelcomeStorm,
I have to sincerely admit that your presentation of such simple phrases is very masterful. That has to be one of my favorite aspects of this story. Such a simple phrase and the way that you present. It is truly remarkable.
Oh god no. Taylor just triggered the fuck out of Assault.

Assuming it was Taylor. Could be Jack Slash with his broadcast shard knowing just how to best fuck Assault up. Going after Assault to find out wtf was up with Bloodmoon might be something he would do. I could see Jack trying/wanting to recruit Bloodmoon to S9. The lovecraftian shaker thing people believe Taylor has together with new sightings and suspicion of literally coming back from the dead both make her pretty scary. The whole "only during full moon" thing would probably just add to the infamy and Jacks interest.
Though I suppose it COULD be Taylor. One would hope she would realise that this is a really bad way to inform Assault she is alive (whatever happened to all that Insight
), but I believe its been mentioned that Taylor is mentally drained/confused in BB. So its possible she thought "I need to let Mr. Ethan know I am alive", but was unable to think clearly enough to figure out how to do that without freaking him out utterly.

It might be fannon but I heard that "killing" a great one doesn't truly End a great one. If this is true jacks' shard may very well have sent a hello and got a reply in the form of insight. Now imagine what would happen to a shard that got too much insight too fast, because I refuse to.
