Um... Let's see here... The mana storms in Australia grow weaker, however, a plague of strange free spirits that feed on dark emotions ravage the country-side?

LOL so, if they are related to decreasing mana-storms, it's time to become a storm chaser...

Gabe isn't here, so I guess it's safe to talk.


In the Horrors sourcebook, the "dragon creation myth" states that Nighthunter, the dragon-like being that created "life" left "across the world" to spawn it's creations: Dragons, Name-givers, and the like. The "other side of the world" is quite similar to "the land down under" which leads me to believe that the nature of Australia's manastorms has more to do with how Corrupted that area had been during the 2nd or 4th worlds.

Ayer's Rock!  But then again, it IS a rock.. so I don't think they'll be so successful.

well, perhaps they were terrorizing some people from UCAS on their way to newzeland, and ended up in austrilia in the outback?

ooooo, so what happens if a team of sappers  does make it over to Ayers Rock and blows big chunks out of it or worse?  That would not bode well I'm thinking.
