GMs and NPCs

The paperweight in the Mayor's Office is a (usually pleasant) surprise for new mayors – no one quite knows what to make of the smell of roses and the feeling of sunlight on their skin, or where the echo came from.

You can contact the GMs by two methods:

Emailing is not anonymous, but the MailDragon system is set up such that it is not always immediately obvious who is sending the message, so please do make it clear who you are! All of the GMs will be able to read your message, so if you'd like to contact just one specific GM, doing so via Discord DMs will be most effective, although please be aware that GMs may not respond to individual messages quickly.
