In The News

"Welcome to ACNN Mid-Morning. I'm Merline Indygo, desk reporter for the All-Continent News Network. Now that the broadcasting confusion has been settled we are back online after a long month of technical difficulties. Unfortunately, we have no idea who is receiving our signal or how far it stretches. ACNN is stationed in what was previously Karakura Town. Our own representatives are still trying to sort out what to call this newly-expanded city. However we are not the only locale in chaos. And now, for today's top stories:" ~Merline Indygo, ACNN.

All-Continent News Network
The All-Continent New Network broadcasts from the center of Karakura/Mushyori. The "Face" of their network has been the desk reporter Merline Indygo, former resident and reporter for a broadcasting company in the original Karakura Town before the merge.

For example, this past article:

Government Chaos Just as many of you probably feared, all of the "former" and "Established" governments are in chaos. Each has kept their local control strong with whatever piece of their nation was brought with them. Some diplomats are calling for a World Conference to draw new nation boundaries, but talks are slow-moving. On top of this shaky half-truce, there has been a confirmed assassination of Political Leader. The British Prime Minister in London has been killed along with his entire staff that was on duty. London Officials believe the Tokyo government is at fault, and it may lead to an official war.

In truth, a character by the name of Netami Kihaku with help of his accomplice, Kataki Doragon, assassinated the former prime minister to open up a path for him to gain control of a stepping stone in his quest to take over the world. They framed the Tokyo government, and then also secretly set up the retaliation attack on Tokyo's Ginza to force either negotations or war once Netami was named the new Prime Minister of London in the elections.

We invite members to use these bits of information to their advantage and guide their characters to Like-purposed individuals and really drive the plots forward.
