NEWSPAPER - BIMONTHLY 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, at the person, and/or broke something in the area: Petral Ral, Hanayo Koizumi, Ryo Kurokiba, Sakuya Izayoi, Teana Lanster, Juvia Lockser, Balalaika. ]
The Tribune is Back!
The huge disaster with the strange spirits took the Tribune under for quite some time, but we're back in action! Production has slowed, but we will be back with at least once-a-month releases, though hopefully we will be able to keep our bimonthly rhythm. Look forward to it!
New Business Featurette!
After disasters across Everglade and Genessia City, it seems to have sparked a boom in new businesses! Check out some of these great new places around the cities of Genessia:
ATTLETON:
Construction, Carpentry, and Cleaning Company (CCCC)
With all the damage that's been going on in the neighboring cities, Attleton decided to do the thing it does best: normal living circumstances needs. This company can be hired to clean up after disasters whether they're caused by people, spirits, natural disasters, or whatever else may come your way. They'll fix structural damage, furniture, and help clean. Hiring? Yes.
Jardin Verdoyant
It is a basic flower shop with seeds and stemmed flowers. There are a few plotted plants but not very many. A Green House is required for cultivation, attached to the side or back of the store. There is a small area in the back with a sink and plumbing required to take care of the plants. Terra is going to try and have plants from each archway though it will be a slow process. She is also going to sell dried flowers (like potpourri and tea(that isn’t poisonous)) but in small quantities. Hiring? Yes.
EVERGLADE
Undead and Deceased Civil Rights Movement Headquarters
After the ban on necromancy, many of the undead and deceased residents banned together to form a civil rights movement. This is their headquarters, where they plan protests and other movements to attempt to protect and get their rights back. Hiring? Volunteers only. Living Advocates for the Non-Living acceptable.
FAYREN
Scribes and Scripts
It’s a smallish shop and will soon be filled with books. There is a back room where things that need to be cataloged or priced sit on organized shelves as well as a back door that remains locked. The front of the store is open with wooden book shelves lining the walls and a few shorter shelves in the center. It designed so the person sitting at the counter in the back right of the store can see everyone in the store at once. There is a pedestal in the middle of the room with magical protective runes written around its base. A feathered pen and a book rest on the light brown Birch wood pedestal, which is meant for people to write information in about Genessia or things that they find here. Levy had set up the protective spell making it impossible to remove the book from the pedestal unless she is there to remove it. There are small signs along the wall designating different sections that were requested by those who responded to her message: Text Books, History of Worlds, Romance, Games, and Magic. There are a few smaller sections with smaller sighs but she’s made sure to collect these particular books. There is a sign at the front of the desk with the words: Book Hunters. If a book isn’t there then they will surely try and find it. Hiring? Yes.
Necro-No-More Instigates Severe Backlash in Everglade
City Guardian Theodore Satchel's arrival in office ended up with Everglade's justice system banning psychics and mediums from the court room. The citizens are in an outrage, stating that this goes against their culture and way of life. Everglade is known as a city where the dead can roam freely and still have a say in the ongoings of life, and many of the dead and undead are saying this is a violation of their civil rights.
Severe backlash seems to have occurred in the form of rumors of a black market for necromancy items as well after the Guardian placed a ban on all necromancy, but the Tribune was unable to get confirmation on these rumors.
Sunset Summit, Clermont Apartments Under Fire
Genessia may be losing two of its apartment complexes soon. Sunset Summit and Clermont Apartments have been found to have been conspiring to attempt to play the market to destroy other apartment's finances after being unable to maintain enough money to stay open themselves. The owners of these apartment complexes refused to give comments, but local Private Investigator Sherley Hammond provided a papertrail worth of evidence to support the claims.

Bounties
Genessia:

Attleton
Late-Night Lawnmowers: It doesn't matter if you want your lawn short or long, it shouldn't be done at 3am. Though not technically illegal in Attleton, someone has been going around mowing peoples' lawns free of charge without asking and the citizens have had enough of being woken up this early in the morning! Find the Late-Night Lawnmower for level 1 payment and turn him over to the townsfolk.
Everglade
If You Like Them So Much: Why don't you become one? A serial killer is on the loose with crazed ideals about how the banning of the dead from court supports the idea that the dead shouldn't be walking around on the streets. He can't kill those who are already dead, so instead he started killing off key living advocates of deceased human rights. Three have been killed so far, catch him before he kills a fourth for level 4 payment!
Fayren
Unicorn Mayhem: Unicorn numbers have recently decreased due to the sale of unicorn horns. Find the smugglers and put them to justice any way that you can! Level 2 payment for turning them into the local authorities, level 3 returning only the head to the local cryptozoo activists.
Nova City

One of the shipments went missing three days ago and some of the stolen dolls have shown up filled with illegal nanogoo, an artificial intelligence substance being used to override security systems throughout the city. Find the missing shipment and catch the thieves for level 3 payment.

Re: Bounty Claims!
GODDAMN PAPER BOY!
She plucked the newspaper from the air and tucked it under one arm, walking around and out to where the paper boy was frozen in time. Rather than one of her throwing knives, she drew the much larger knife from her garter, taking her sweet time to carefully angle the blade before ramming it into the base of his skull. She slung him over a shoulder as time resumed, turning, and walking straight back inside.
The werewolves would no doubt be excited about their up and coming snack...
