LOCKE CITY NEWS/RUMOR FODDER MEME

Let us all round up just what is going on in the as of this past year apparently plagued Locke City, NJ.

As 'tis well-known, Locke's been subject to such events as mysterious pink lights in the sky, that recent much-too-sizable earthquake that killed over a hundred, and alleged terrorist activity - say nothing of the rumors around an explosion in the sky in early November and of cockroach men in the sewers, pigeon flu, snake-monsters in the now-bombed Dead District and so on.

But o' course what else might our supernaturally-inclined characters have been getting into that might've attracted some notice?

Feel free to note, gather, and share any shenanigans your characters might've been up to that might have caught a few eyes or fed into the media here - for the referencing and/or plotting around as you please: from there, feel free to peruse and plan exactly what the word on the street around them might be in-universe, and/or ask and poke around for anything that characters might be able to react to or use as a seed for future interaction/plotting!

I know it got around, and this'll probably be the last time I mention it, but as a result of the drug bust early in December, Winter was carted off for a night; that in and of itself turned a few heads, but probably didn't hold attention for long. What did hold attention was that she was very suddenly and very publicly dismissed from the student council about ten days later; the story made local news that evening, though it didn't use her name.

I would assume that the council began looking for a new secretary shortly after Winter's removal (and, with it being finals week, not had much luck), but in the meantime, the rumor mill has probably had a field day with this one, wondering what the hell she was really arrested for.

Britany may or may not have started a rumor that it was for possession of forbidden edritch knowledge the likes of which man was never supposed to know.

It was a joke.
