As you all know, the SCOPE Virus has been causing quite the stir in the Digital World, turning infected Digimon into mindless beasts wrecking havoc and leaving destruction in their wake. Since this is the Digital World, everything is considered data in one way, shape, or form, and thus subject to infection.
This includes you, the Chosen~
What does this mean? Well, over the course of October and into November, each of you will show shifts in your personality. Since you have been in the Digital World the longest, you will be the FIRST to show signs of not being yourselves. It won't be anything drastic in the beginning: pervasive thoughts that you wouldn't normally think, or saying things that you would usually keep to yourselves would be the effects most noticeable. Over time, though, your character's shift will get worse and worse until they are VERY MUCH not themselves.
This WILL affect Blackwargreymon, too, with a SLIGHT difference. Instead of a personality shift like the Chosen, BWG will be slowly turning into the mindless attacking Digimon you have fought before. By the time the middle of November rolls around, BWG will be just as mindless as the other Digimon affected by the Virus.
Oh, but there's more to this little ah, "event" than just a change in personality for your characters. "What!? There's more?!" Why, of course there is! Remember your crests that you have worked so hard to get? BWAHAHAHAHAHA they won't be able to help you this time around, kiddies! Once the Virus starts having an effect on your character, your crest will NO LONGER WORK LIKE THEY SHOULD (SEE THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH FOR MORE DETAILS). This means that any Digivolving taking place during this time will only be as high as Champion. As well, Cresting assignments will be put on hold. Pretty much everyone will eventually be affected by the Virus, so they will not be themselves. How can the Digital World properly Crest those who do not act how they were meant to? BUT DON'T WORRY! Cresting WILL resume at a later date, so no fretting~.
By OCTOBER 6th, your crests will be able to trigger DARK DIGIVOLUTIONS! Since these personality shifts are basically perversions of your Crests, Digivolving will be going haywire! Not only will Dark Digivolutions be available, but you will be able to do this OUTSIDE OF EVENTS! We will have a section below available for Dark Digivolution applications. To keep things fair and open for everyone, if you have already received a Dark Digivolution, please do not apply. Out of the applications we receive, WE WILL RANDOMLY SELECT THREE (3) using a random number generator who will get a Dark Digivolution. You may use it at any time, but you may only use it ONCE between the time you get it and the time the "event" ends, which will be some time in the middle of November.
When will this all begin? With your group, the Virus will begin taking hold of your character on SEPTEMBER 29th! THIS IS WHEN EVERYTHING STARTS GOING NUTS! And you all are the first to experience it! Don't you all feel special~ This will be going on all the way through November (exact dates TBA later), so take your time and have fun!
AS A SIDE NOTE! Everyone will eventually be involved with this, but we would like to keep it as hush-hush as we can. We would like for you all to keep this information to yourselves becausewe love torturing everyone surprises are always fun. Accidents happen, or people get excited, but we would love to keep this on the down-low as much as possible. We hope you understand and can help keep this a surprise for everyone else.
If there are any questions, please feel free to ask them below. We will also be leaving this open for you all for ONE WEEK to plan and everything before the event starts. ON OCTOBER 5th, your group's discussion will be closed so that we can prepare for the next group's discussion on the 6th. Please refrain from commenting on their group's posts to keep things fair for everyone. Remember, YOU GET ONE WEEK, on here to plot and plan things out accordingly. You may plan things in other places, but we thought it would be a good idea to have a place where you can giggle and scheme in private without the possibility of the others finding out what's going on. AT THE END OF THE WEEK, we will let those who applied for Dark Digivolutions know if they have been selected.
HAVE FUN, GUYS! WE HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY THIS AS MUCH AS WE WILL~

DARK DIGIVOLUTION APPLICATIONS
Date: 2013-09-11 09:55 pm (UTC)Please fill out the form below if you are interested in a Dark Digivolution.
Re: DARK DIGIVOLUTION APPLICATIONS
Date: 2013-09-16 01:33 am (UTC)PARTNER: Gizamon
LOCKED DIGIVOLUTION: Seadramon - Megaseadramon - Metalseadramon
DARK DIGIVOLUTION: Dragomon
REASON: Kaldur, being corrupted by the SCOPE virus, would start to lose his drive and question his abilities to lead and fight on. He would probably start to think he's been a terrible leader, that he is a failure, and that he is continuing to drive Gizamon into danger that neither he or his digimon are ready for. This doubt and lack of motivation will trigger the evolution because Kaldur will give into despair, questioning all of his previous calls as leader.
This is probably the only time he would trigger a dark digivolution |D
DARK DIGIVOLUTION APPLICATIONS
Date: 2013-09-16 01:56 am (UTC)PARTNER: Lucemon
LOCKED DIGIVOLUTION: Cerberumon
DARK DIGIVOLUTION: LadyDevimon
REASON: SO THAT DARK DIGIVOLUTION. Cam's crest is the Crest of Courage. The early manipulations will probably cause him to...well, act more recklessly and not thinking at all for himself. Later he will completely lose any courageousness in him. But at the start, this thinking would definitely trigger a Dark Digivolution, once the courage gets self-destructive as "even if I get hurt, it's fine."
I WILL NOTE since I'm a mod, if he gets chosen and someone else really has their heart set on it, I can back out. :)

Date: 2013-09-16 03:10 am (UTC)PARTNER: Candlemon
LOCKED DIGIVOLUTION: Firamon.
DARK DIGIVOLUTION: BlueMeramon
REASON: Since Ryan's got the Crest of Light and the SCOPE virus is going to be fucking Ryan's personality up, I feel like the logical conclusion of the crest of light being perverted is a dark digivolution. More specifically, Ryan will probably realize that he's becoming like his sister and people are acting kind of weird, try to do something and fix it, fuck up really badly because he's not embodying his crest, and then bam. Dark digivolution.
(Same as Ashley and Jade: if ya'll really want ur dark digis, I'll give up my spot.)
Re: DARK DIGIVOLUTION APPLICATIONS
Date: 2013-09-16 04:50 am (UTC)PARTNER: Gazimon - Tailmon - Bastemon
LOCKED DIGIVOLUTION: Lilithmon (though I'm not certain that's going to stay)
DARK DIGIVOLUTION: Angewomon.
REASON: Without her emotions, Alex is going to be far less passionate than normal, and seeking knowledge for knowledge's sake is going to lead her into attempting things like theurgy, knowledge that she never cared about before because it doesn't have the practical applications she wanted. Her crest, Desire, was originally there because knowledge was the means to an end for her, as she was full of selfish desire to do good. (It makes sense, I swear.)
Now, she's dispassionate, learning for learning's sake- Her desire has shifted to things with no practical use. The burning passion behind her desire is gone, leading to a cold, inhumane one, twisting the shape of desire. (The reason for a Dark Digivolution leading to angel is due to Hermetic themes, that a summoned angel can grant the summoner knowledge, combined with lore about Ophanimon's own capability for Falldown Mode.)

Date: 2013-09-21 04:30 am (UTC)PARTNER: Agumon
LOCKED DIGIVOLUTION: None of Masaru's forms are locked, but Agumon > GeoGreymon > RizeGreymon > ShineGreymon
DARK DIGIVOLUTION: Darkdramon, because of irony, and because no dark versions of GeoGreymon's line technically exist save for ShineGreymon Ruin Mode, which would be overdoing it.
If you don't want him to go to the final level, I suggest Megadramon as a back-up.
REASON: Masaru, when affected, would become a betrayal of everything he believes in. He'd start behaving irresponsibly, dishonorably, and seek out opponents in order to viciously beat them down. His rage would be less righteous, and more sadistic and vitriolic. This would cause his partner to be overcome by Masaru's anger and despair.
