Rumors and Intelligence

Many small countries remain nearly impassible with the rare exceptions being Uzushio and the islands. Among those that are hard to travel through, few are non-aggressive in their repelling. Rain is one of the few without hostilities.

Demons seems to be in an uproar, the cause is not clearly identified.

All contact has been lost with the Land of Moon.

The land of Birds is purported to have placed a premium on all livestock they've been buying. They've also been said to be buying quite a few goods from surrounding countries.

The Land of Sand has dramatically raised paper prices in their sales to Wind, and most especially Suna in the last month.

Otogakure is finally publicly known as a hidden village, though several others are still in question, with legitimacy being unverified.

Weather and Goods

Fire has been under a layer of ice most of the month previous, and there seems to be no end in sight. Regular sleeting rains seem to be the agenda now that the original snow has finally mostly melted, the initial storms of which will last the first week of March before tapering off.

Suna is finally getting a respite from the humid weather inspired by the rains, with the temperatures settling to slightly cooler than normal, but drier as the last of the water finally leaves the air before the spring temperatures start to spike, leaving the weather almost pleasant.

Rock's early thaw was deceptive, and led to an unfortunate loss of the first early buds of the season as they were submerged under a fresh three feet of snow late last month. It was only a single storm however, and has almost entirely melted, leaving the country back to nearly prime spring weather.

Water's fog season has finally eased back enough that ships can once again safely navigate the island networks, unfortunately, it also brings extremely high winds and heavy thunderstorms that verge on the edge of hurricane weather. The weather system is moving eastward.

Micro Event!

We hope you weren't worried we'd forgotten about these. After the kidnapping event (The last micro-event we had, where people were jutsu tied together for a week), we had to give our negative faction some time to sort themselves out and decide that maybe being a bit more aggressive with their fiddling was the way to go. They are, after all, still mostly unknown.

Though, this time it's admittedly less aggressive political maneuvering, more testing out a new jutsu to see if they can't make it do exactly what they want. Body swapping is on the table.

Every character set will be a group of two or three. You may have a representative of your unit post below on the comment for all of you, saying who is involved of course, or you may throw your character down on the comment below alone to be randomly paired off with whoever else decides to do the event that way.

What will happen is that in this event, some shinobi will be going around, hitting people with this jutsu and fleeing before they can be confronted. It's a seal so the creator can monitor how fast it degrades even at a distance, and these will be staggered any time between the 4th and the 17th of March as they won't happen at the exact same time, depending how many people are interested. Body swapping will happen instantly as soon as the seal is placed on all parties in the unit.

Players will have to decide between themselves how long the effects last, from one day to eight, and only people who reply to this post saying they're in will be involved in this event.

Have fun everyone!

Edit: VOLUNTEERING FOR THE MICRO-EVENT HAS CLOSED. Sorry guys have to plan the plot.
