update 15th August!
Fae Encounters;
Residents may note that Bugbears and Bogeymen are coming back with renewed vigour over the next fortnight, looking to harm whoever they come across. Bodachs will be common too, though their agenda seems somewhat less perilous (if equally unsettling). Either way, sleepers may well find their rest disrupted.
A Grugach will also be wandering again, hoping to find shelter at night, complaining that she's cold. Help her out, and she'll do a small favour for you. Turn her away, and you might end up falling mysteriously ill, or becoming prey to a slew of bad luck.
On rainy days, a Fideal will be singing at the loch, looking to serenade passers by - and, if she gets her way, drag them into the water to drown them. Given the wet weather, fishers will have to be on their guard from Water Leapers, too, as the river will be teeming with them.
Come the weekend, the Cat Sidhe will be sitting by the well in the village. It'll show a particular fondness for any character who has died in or before arriving in Demeleier, and will tolerate ear-scratches from anyone else - but give it some milk or fish, and it will attempt to lead you into the forest. Follow it, and you'll find ten iron bars for your trouble - but the cat will be gone. You might need to look to the Hyter Sprites to find your way out.
As for the Black Dogs, they'll be roaming the village in small packs. The majority of them will be benign, but you'll have to be careful as you come closer to the graveyard. Turn your back on their smiles, and you may well end up being chased down.
Those wandering close to the lochshore at night will hear a soft, plaintive call of "Lost, lost..." from close-by, accompanied by a hushed rattling. If you're kind enough to investigate, you'll be applauded by Shellycoat. He means no harm, but he likes a good laugh.
On Monday and Tuesday, the Virika will be congregating in the shadows of the village, particularly under the eaves and window ledges, to chatter with apparent excitement.
Tuesday night will prove restless as well, with mournful sobbing echoing through the village. The Bean Sidhe will be wandering through the streets, clutching her black cloak around her. Try to attack her, and you'll find yourself rooted to the spot by her screech. She'll disappear, only to reappear elsewhere, and continue her song.
Come dawn, she'll give an eerie, piercing shriek three times, and then she'll be gone - but anyone who walks to the docks that morning will find the Bean Nighe washing a pile of clothes. She'll be humming to herself and won't respond to any attempts to distract her from her task - hang around long enough, and you might notice that her pile contains two houndstooth patterned school skirts, and a leather jerkin.

Changes to the mod team
It's with regret that we announce that Jen is going to be stepping down from the moderator team. The core posts will be updated to reflect this. She's given us a lot of hard work and dedication on the team, and we're sad to see her go! She will still be remaining in the game with forhyrule, thirdoutofthree and transientis. If you need to get in contact with a mod, send a message Rosh or Eilidh's way!
