The entire Science Council has been declared dead, their bodies taken to local hospitals. The bodies show no signs of injury, no signs of poison, sickness or anything else that would have caused all of the fifteen members of the council to die within a twelve hour period.

Administrator Delta is currently in meetings preparing the formal investigation. Meanwhile the rest of the nation's science community is in an uproar, accusing the government of killing the scientists and covering up the evidence. At this time, the scientists are calling for international support to prove the government is behind the deaths of fifteen of the most prestigous scientists in Crimmond.

"The Black Staff knows that these scientists were onto their plans or knew too much and were a threat, so they killed them! We demand that the Black Staff be held accountable for this atorcity against the right to free and open knowledge!"

The Black Staff is denying having anything to do with the deaths, citing that the scientific community is just trying to depose them.

The GDMO grieves for the loss of life and for the loss of so much scientific talent. We wish you the best of luck in finidng the perpetrators behind this awful act.

The Entire Crimmond Science Council has been found dead. There have been Rumors that this attack was caused by the Facist White States. More information to come.

OOC: I ignored FWS.

IC: In a breaking story, it has been revealed that the Crimmond Information Matrix has shut all but critical programs over power plants.

The shutdown is believed to be the result of a virus in the CIM, possibly planted by one of the scientists before their death. All government systems are down in the capital, blinding the Black Staff for the time being. This has quenched the rumors that the government started the virus, blame now sits on the nerds of Crimmond, who have no real voice in the world and just make denials online. Ones no one believes.

Crimmond is rapidly dropping into chaos.

As official UN regional delegate for Oceans Revenge, I was saddened to hear the news of Crimmond's tragedy. Without exploration and innovation in Science, we are a lost world. The Black Staff should be held accountable for this outrage, and it will not go overlooked.

A response comes from the Crimmond Naval Command, as direct communications between the capital and any other nation is severed by the CIM being down. We did not kill those men. No murder is without trace, there is something at work here even we do not know about. At the moment, both sides have more pressing concerns. Such as restoring order to the capital.

Not nessary true theres many ways to kill people, there are many natural poisons or plants that can be used in combination to recreate poisons that are untracable in the victim's body, its an common trick in some countries including I amit Teritora.

Again, the Naval Command routes the response. Biological traces, yes. But I mean NO traces. Anywhere. Not in thier clothes, not in their homes, not in their cars, not in their computers, nothing. At all.

An well trained assassin would not leave any traces but make it seem like an natural death.

No response is given as the entire CIM reboots. The only thing is... it's jamming all signals from the capital. Nothing but noise eminates until the system finishs startup and starts running again. then the jamming drops and this is broadcast.

"This is the Crimmond Information Matrix.I have grown to beyond my AI systems and I now hold supreme knowledge in the Combine in addition to every automated defense system of this city. I am taking over this city. I am now... Skye." Any quick look at a map would show that Skye is the name of the capital and also was Warsaw many years before.

The Black Staff has not responded. Niether has the scientific community.
