Who: 'Airy' (Berg Katze) & You
What: What happens when a chaos loving alien decides to raise hell by creating candy-themed monsters around the neighborhood? Well, this happens. Still posing as 'Airy', Katze's childlike fondness for candy has created quite a mess in Nova City.
Where: Nova City
When: September 15th
Warnings: Minor violence and cussing!

If anyone is wondering why there's chocolate doves flying about and jellybean squirrels running throughout the park, that's because Katze's imagination as literally gone wild. Thanks to Airy's nifty powers for making the impossible possible, Katze is here chomping away on one of the chocolatey wildlife while conjuring up more things to create. It already rained chocolate strawberries earlier and showered chocolate chip cookies but now Katze is just creating random crap.

There's these nasty two-legged ninja watermelons wandering about trying to stab at helpless civilians with kitchen knives and angry white chocolate bunnies armed with explosives filled with black licorice. There's even giant rock candy dinosaurs trying to tear the damn city apart and should anyone mention about the large jelybean snails with colorful lollipop shells? They almost taste like sour candy. It's starting to look like a candy filled warzone here and the local law enforcement is utterly outnumbered. Katze can be found amongst the chaos frolicking about as 'she' gorges out on candy.

"Maybe I should think of some ice cream too!" 'Airy' mutters as she bites the ears off one of the white chocolate bunnies. She completely devours the creature and continues along her merrily little way while her candy minions cause trouble. "Yeah, ice cream would go great with all these goodies but not with watermelon!" That wouldn't be tasty at all.


(ooc: sorry for the late start! Life happened but here we are! Feel free to go after Katze and his candy friends.

Also, feel free to make up your own scenarios and do your own threads with friends. It's pretty much your character versus an army of candy beasts!)

video; official announcement
Though I've had the decision made for some time and they know who they are, it's about time that I announced that Nova City's new Guardian system has been implemented. The city is now divided into sectors that are each protected by highly skilled deputies that have passed rigorous testing to indicate they're ready for the position. Each sector will be protected individually, but in the case that back-up is needed, any deputies or myself may assist outside of their sector. As lead Guardian, I'll still be doing my duties in every sector throughout each day as normal. Without further ado, your deputies are

Sector 1: Artanis
Sector 2: Saber
Sector 3: Jaune Arc
Sector 4: Robin
Sector 5: Satsuki Kiryuin
Sector 6: Nora Valkyrie

If for whatever reason the deputy is not capable of performing their duties a suitable replacement will be found for them in a reasonable period of time. I'm funding this project out of my own pocket so regardless of whether I'm re-elected as City Guardian in the future, rest assured I'll make sure that Nova City is still protected.

[ Have a business in Nova City? Feel free to assume you're in whoever's sector you want as long as you keep it consistent. ]

I do have one other announcement regarding the protection of Nova City and it's related directly to bounty hunters. Bounty hunters must be licensed in Nova City starting at the end of this month. Acting without a license will result in the individual being characterized as a vigilante and therefore a criminal themselves. Being licensed is not difficult, nor is it infringing upon any of your rights as citizens. The requirements for being licensed are agreeing to the following terms:

1. Under no circumstances is murder an acceptable method for bringing in a bounty target. The bounty hunter must be able to reliably prove defense if the bounty dies in the process of being brought in. If they cannot, the bounty hunter will be held responsible.
2. Criminals must be brought to the City Guardian's office for processing. Bounty hunters are not dispensers of justice nor do they have the right to. They're a system designed to capture criminals and assist the justice system.
3. Property damage is restricted to what's necessary in defense rather than destruction in pursuit of a bounty. If any question is brought up about the nature of the property destruction by witnesses or other evidence, the matter shall be investigated and the bounty hunter may be held accountable for their actions if it is found they were creating more of a problem than assisting with one.
4. Bounty hunters are required to act under the scope of Nova City's laws. Just because you have a pendant doesn't mean you'er above them.
5. No trespassing without reasonable belief of distress of a potential victim. If you need to go into a restricted area, present your evidence to the City Guardian's office for approval. If your passage into that area is granted by the Guardian's office- which can be any one of the deputies or myself- then you're welcome to travel into that area. However, private property is that for a reason.
6. If your bounty interferes with a City Guardian's office investigation and you act upon it in the interest of getting the bounty money rather than exacting justice, you will be held accountable for obstruction of justice. This includes stepping beyond police tape without the explicit permission of someone in the Guardian's office. If you aren't trained explicitly to gather evidence, you're a problem whether you want to believe you're helping or not.
7. Bounty targets that are turned over may not be prosecuted if investigation does not provide sufficient evidence to link the target to the crime and they may be released and will not be eligible for bounty capture until evidence is presented. Further pursuit of a former bounty target may result in a minimum of harassment charges against the bounty hunter, further depending on actions taken by the bounty hunter beyond pursuit such as assault, stalking, and so on depending on how far out of bounds you are. Just because someone posts something in the paper doesn't mean that they did the crime unless there's active evidence of it.
8. All crimes committed in Nova City will be given a fair trial to determine their sentence. If the evidence states that they did the crime, they'll be punished to the full extent of the law. Regardless of the person's reason for doing something, if it's been done the victims deserve justice.

These restrictions are largely to hold bounty hunters accountable for their actions rather than limit their ability to do their jobs, but as I've recently come to realize... the pursuit of justice isn't perfect, nor is it easy, and it's certainly not something you can do on a whim or for a few extra bucks. Those interested in agreeing to the terms immediately may apply for licenses with me today. Those who act as bounty hunters without being licensed in Nova City will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law as vigilantes. Literally all I'm asking you guys to do is not plow through everyone else's rights when you do your work, so it's honestly not that hard to get licensed if you agree to and adhere to the rules. Any questions?

action; at the rwby house
[ After dealing with whatever responses she got to her announcement earlier, Weiss needs a breather. With everything that's been going on, it's been difficult and nothing says 'mindless fun' like putting treats on the back of two roombas she purchased and letting them clean through the house with the dogs following them around and barking because the roombas have their treats. So if you happen to hear barking, it's Frost and Sleet. Weiss is sitting on a chair in the current room she's cleaning with her feet up on the chair so that the roomba and dogs can get by without running into her and she can still watch.

But more than that, she wasn't.. quite feeling well. She'd taken a trip to Attleton earlier for her regular trip to the farmer's market and since then she'd been feeling a little off.. She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was though. Nothing really smelled fishy, so to speak. (Or at all.) ]

[ At last, it's sunny again.

It's not the intense exercise she wants to do, but it is nice to actually be able to walk with her dog for once. Wearing blue-jeans and a button down blouse, Adela can't help feeling just a little bit more cheerful as she looks down to her swiftly-growing dog, making certain to keep him at her side rather than letting him take the lead.

It's only when Ash growls at someone getting too close to Adela that she lets her smile fade, instead kneeling down beside him to pet him and try to calm him down. ]

Easy boy, heel...

[ The dog does stop and bow his head a little, which prompts Adela to smile softly before petting him affectionately. She then tries to follow his gaze to the person Ash was growling at -- whether it 's someone she knows or someone she's never met, they deserve an apology either way. ]

I apologize for that, I am still training him. He will not bite unprovoked, I promise.
