Newspaper - Sunday Edition
[Did you subscribe to The Genessia Tribune? Did you even remotely wish you had a newspaper or some other form of media to refer to for news, weather, and current events? Then you're in luck! There's a paperboy riding through the streets of Genessia flinging newspapers onto doorsteps or, if you're unlucky, through your window. Even remote locations in the other cities will still get a paper if one of the residents ever wanted one. The Paperboy is just that dedicated.]
[And if you're one of the following people, and you happen to subscribe to the newspaper, the Paperboy may or may not have flung the newspaper through that person's window and/or broke something in the area: Juvia Lockser, Riku, Christian Nolan, Chihiro Fujisaki, Zuko, Last Order, Minako Aino, Lucas, Mnemon, and Yuna.]

City Not so Fondue Over Sudden Cheesy Changes
Widespread panic and fear over seeing an enormous dragon looping through the skies turned to stark confusion when buildings and rivers began turning into cheese. While some citizens were happy for the unexpected boon of brie, those who are lactose intolerant were less than pleased, as were those whose living quarters were turned into limburger, after which the strong pungent odor forced residents to seek temporary shelter elsewhere. Dairy farmers in Attleton are also outraged at this whimsical farce, as dairy demand is expected to sharply drive down prices. "We'll have to focus more on butter and yogurt," Farmer Joe told reporters. "No one's going to be buying cheese for a while, even if these cheese shenanigans go away tomorrow."
Guardians on the Rise
Talk of recent guardians and the upcoming election has been dominating grocery store lines and beauty parlor gossip. After two guardians were instated directly, due to lack of competition, the hotly contested position of Attleton's guardian has come as a surprise to many, especially since the city is, according to a popularity poll, considered to be "the boring one." Residents of Nova City and Everglade seem to find their guardians favorable, and opinion polls indicate more positive reception than negative due to Yuna's efforts to bring the nightmare plague to a halt, which seems to have worked, and Satsuki's dedication to the education of the youth. However, popularity polls in general have begun a steady decline in light of the strange videos being conducted by the mysterious figure known as 'John Everyman.' The truth of these recordings has yet to be established, but the footage seems real enough. Citizens are reminded to cast their vote for Attleton's guardian before the polls close. The new guardian will be announced in next week's edition.
Costume Contest and Ball
It's been a while since the spirits have awarded any charms, but that's about to change in the upcooming week. From October 27th through October 31st, a costume contest will be held. Participants are required to submit their entries by either attending the ball on October 29th in Genessia City's Grand Hall, or by sending them to spiritual consultant Raye Hino who will be conducting the judge's panel. There are three categories: Spookiest Costume, Most Creative Costume, and Funniest Costume Duo, meaning that four charms will be awarded in total.
Spaghetti and Meteorballs
A giant meteor was seen sailing over the skies in Fayren, upon which a laughing child with bunny ears was seen riding on top. Despite the initial alarm, citizens soon calmed when the meteor crashed into a faraway mountain range. "That's where all the trolls are, so we're okay if some of them get squished," said pleasant resident peasant Tom Fezzant.
Annual Job Fair
Due to a sudden increase in Genessia residents seeking employment, officials have elected to bump the annual job fair from the first week of December to the first week of November. "Turnout was fairly low last year, but there are more people now," says Mike Burple, a mechanic's shop owner based in Lawrence Kansas. Employers and shop owners are encouraged to start preparing booths and exhibits to draw potential employees and ensure that everyone has a means of earning a living and contributing to society. For those who are unsure but willing to try something new, the Wheel O' Employment will be established once more to grant one-day internships in a variety of positions.
Bounties
[OOC: The following jobs are available for those who want to do some bounty hunting for big money. The first person who writes up the log for the bounty is the one who gets the reward - no handwaving, no OOC claim staking! Feel free to team up, or even fail to deliver the bounty. Please note that whoever goes after the bounty is in charge of writing the NPCs involved, but feel free to ask the mod for any tips if you like.]
Attleton - The Convenience Store Clobberer: Wanted for multiple thefts and making a mess in the soda aisle as his signature, as well as unwarranted brutality against convenience store clerks.
Everglade - Huck Hutter: A traveling salesman suspected of peddling cursed objects to unsuspecting buyers. May be working with a witch. Both culprits are required for collecting the bounty.
Fayren - Trolls: Raids have been growing more severe. At first livestock were going missing, now people are being taken as well.
Nova City - "Gustav": A particularly nasty shapeshifting alien infamous for hijacking ships and selling the cargo in intergalactic black markets.
