The
hostage crisis at Plano High School has escalated, as three mundanes with bad
Bieber cuts have used magical artifacts to take over the school – artifacts
that should have been delivered to Acquisitions for safe keeping. But Inola
Tanner, an agent for Acquisitions, opted to keep them for herself. Any
responsible gun owner will tell you: Never leave a weapon where a kid can get
to it.
The players have call in Robert Speckland, who is something of a Potter-level prodigy when it comes to this world’s magic. He’s gone inside the barrier around the school for negotiation, but when a cop attempts to follow him inside, LITERALLY all hell breaks loose.
The scope of the magic involved here is more than just levitating and throwing energy bolts. It has evolved into a more 3-dimensional strategy between the Fables and the magically-enhanced Mundanes. Unfortunately, the Mundanes seem to be winning.
