Rumor Has It....
...That more and more people are coming through the Outer Gates and settling into Aleris. Over all this isn't exactly a bad thing. It's been good for commerce and trade. Money, business, and diversity are all flooding in along with these immigrants, but that isn't all!
Rumor has it that the female denizens of Aleris are under attack, of sorts. They aren't in any danger, mind you, unless you count seduction as dangerous which, to the pissed off husbands and boyfriends now littering the streets of Aleris, it just might be!
Among these immigrants are a pair of incubi who have an eye for the ladies and aren't afraid to use their mojo to their fullest advantage! Rumor has it that since their arrival in Aleris they have cut a path through the heart of Grand City and have left a trail of seduced women and broken hearts behind them! Rumor has it they go by the names Ballade and Ilario and they are absolutely devastating to the female senses! By all reports they are completely irresistible yet all the women stating they have been seduced by the pair (some individually some by both men at once!) seem rather contented with the results! So be on the alert ladies! If you happen to meet a man by either of those names hang on to your panties and run the other way! Unless, of course, you are looking to be helped out of your panties and rumor has it, any woman who crosses their path quickly is!
Rumor also has it that more than just seduction hounds have arrived on the streets of Aleris. A mysterious figure calling herself The Sultan has arrived in Aleris and her unique product is already in heavy circulation the streets. Rumor has it the woman with the man's title is a self styled alchemist and techmage and has perfected the art of designing recreational drugs for the supernatural community. I know you supes out there know what I'm talking about. You go to a party, have a few drinks, smoke a few joints, maybe do a bump of coke or two, and nothing. Nada. Zilch. You're still standing there sober as a priest while all the non-supes around you are blitzed out of their skulls. Never a fun time.
Well rumor has it that the Sultan has fixed all of it. I'm told she has a drug for all supernatural species and her product is top shelf. Rumor has it that her people are now circulating Aleris distributing her stuff but I hear they look more like thugs and a couple people have gone missing since dealing directly with the Sultan. Incidentally, there is an intense piece of arm candy helping out our gender-confused criminal. A hunka hunka burning hottie is reported to be at her side wherever she goes but unfortunately rumor has it she turns into a mouth foaming she beast the second anyone even looks at him sideways. Figures.
So there you have it Aleris! Sex and Drugs! Until Next Time...
That's The Rumor!
