Urban Nightmare: Garden of Bones

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

Garden of Bones

Hanna Association Provided Description:

The Garden of Bones is a hazard that predominately occurs in the Northwestern district. The phenomena appears to commonly start atop burial sites where people have been recently placed. When the Garden of Bones manifests the location sprouts hundreds of bones from the ground within a matter of minutes. The bones appearing like flowers is why it has been given this name. From this time the bone growths slowly being to spread outwards in all directions.

The Garden itself becomes populated by a mix of beast like creatures and full skeletal entities. These will attack anyone who enters the Garden. Any who are killed have further bones sprout from their bodies and be placed at the Garden's edge, accelerating its growth. If no one enters the Garden for a period of time the beasts will start going on hunts outside the Garden, killing and returning with anyone they find.

While the numbers of the Garden remain relatively small for its scale, the creatures are powerful and do not go down easily. While the exact cause is unknown, corpses disposed of with burial tend to lead to incidents. Leaving bodies out to be handled by the sweepers leads to drastically fewer occurrences. Its repeated recurrence despite multiple jobs clearing it have led to its designation as an Urban Nightmare.

Flow's Notes:

My opinion is this is some sort of monster slipped into the city from the Northwestern outskirts. Whatever it is we haven't been able to identify its form and we only pick up on it once it starts with this whole 'Garden.' I'd treat this one with caution. I feel like the only reason the Garden isn't a Star of the City is because it doesn't hit Nests at all. Guessing due to their more...consistent...corpse management.
