I must announce that our wonderful Governor, /u/redis213, will be retiring from his post as Governor and Officer in the Periwinkle Military. In honor of his contributions to both Chroma and Viper's Peak, we will erect a statue of his steed to signify his loyalty, kindness, laughter, generosity, honesty, and the general magic he felt with the equestrian arts. The location of the statue will be announced at a later date.

As reported by Periwinkle News Channel, we are closely monitoring seismic activity around the land's volcanoes as is per protocol in the event of an earthquake

We would like to take this opportunity to remind our citizens of the safety procedures you must take in the event of an emergency.

Low-level eruptions

These eruptions are to be treated with caution, but otherwise do not form a threat. If you are within a 5 mile radius from a volcano during these eruptions, it is advised you leave the area as soon as possible.

• Viperian

• Strombolian

Mid-level eruptions

These eruptions pose an immediate threat at large distances. In the event of these eruptions, seek refuge in the nearest bunker accessible.

• Vulcanian

• Peléan

• Low Plinian

High-level eruptions

These rare eruptions will cause catastrophic damage and citizens must evacuate Viper's Peak immediately. All citizens must seek out the closest port in which the evacuation ships will transport them to their designated refuge:

-Citizens in the western island will be evacuated to Fort Iris

-Citizens in the central island will be evacuated to Midnight Marsh

-Citizens in the eastern island will be evacuated to Metropolis Daja

-Citizens in the southern island will be evacuated to the Republic of Bezold

• High Plinian/Ultra Plinian

Varying eruptions

These eruptions vary in terms of danger. They will be reacted to according to the designated levels of danger above.

• Hydrovolcanic

• Fissure

We thank you for your understanding and we hope you all stay safe.

- Lt.Governor Remnance

We would be throwing a party, but the delivery truck with all the supplies was smashed by a giant flaming boulder rolling from the volcano never arrived!

Regardless, enjoy your [cake] (http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2008/5/12/0/SH1112_Volcano-Cake.jpg.rend.sni12col.landscape.jpeg), Gov!

Welcome to Viper's Peak!

The dangerous land of extreme fertility.

We are still recovering from the recent volcano eruption that took place in May 2014. Most of this land is desolated and empty with even the last citizens either dead or recovering in a Pervinca resort.

I can assure you though, that the future safety of our citizens shall and always will be our No 1 priority. After all, what is a land without it's citizens.

While others may see bleak desolated fields, I see this as a new beginning for the Peak. I see fields of grain, surrounding the islands, lush and blooming nature entangling our spirits and minds.

Do you with to be apart of this incredible transformation?

There's nothing more simple:

CITIZENSHIP APPLICATION

1. How did you find out about Chroma?

2. How long have you been a Periwinkle?

3. Name the number one thing you like about Viper's Peak.

4. Name something you don't like about Viper's Peak.

5. Will you do your best to be a loyal citizen and follower of the Five Petals?

6. Name the last 3 digits of Pi.

I'm now a citizen! I shall now become completely inactive!

That's.. not quite how it works..

The easiest thing you can do is join your fellow Periwinkles in the

[Public Chat] and the [Public Club]

But there are endless ways you can spend your time in Chroma.

Most popular options are

• Unleash your inner poet or writer in /r/Chromalore

  Read some posts there to get the general idea, but don't be afraid to do something new and innovative. Maybe write in a completely different style. Maybe write about something completely different than other people have.

• Unleash your inner Leonardo da Pervinci in the form of art

  The DeviantART page for Periwinkle is always open for whatever pictures you can come up with. They don't even have to be that good. MS Paint Battles are a high-rank sport event with a long tradition. Don't forget to be silly/creative/awesome.

• Unleash your inner economist and businessman in /r/ChromaMarket

  The ambitions concept that has been tossed away and then picked up again. Nevertheless incredibly awesome and fit for everyone. (Also in desperate need for people).

• /r/Chromaball

  The /r/Polandball of Chroma

• /r/Chromacirclejerk

  The /r/Circlejerk of Chroma

• /r/CouncilofKarma

  The Council of Chroma (serious business alert).

• /r/GoodMorningPeriwinkle

  The No 1 radio station in Chroma.

Have fun!

"How the fuck we ended up here when we were going to the Marsh?!" Rockdale roared as his troops looked around confusedly at the ashen landscape.

"Well, sir it would seem we took a wrong turn..." Kershaw stuttered as he tried to explain the confusing situation. The sweat on his brow coming from more than just the heat of the volcano.

"How? It is literally a straight line to the Marsh from New Cerulean. How did we take a wrong turn?"

"Perhaps you should speak with the ships Captain sir." Kershaw meekly replied. Rockdale simply shot the man a glare before turning on his heel to find the Captain.

"Attention all personnel." a voice came over the intercom. "We are experiencing engine trouble. It seems we'll be stuck here for awhile." Rockdale's face turned blood red, and it looked as if steam was coming out of his ears.

"INCOMPETENCE! I AM SURROUNDED BY INCOMPETENCE!"

I'm not dead. I'm just covered in cooling magma. Bloody volcano, really shouldn't build underneath it, rather dangerous.

Gentlemen,

We proud Periwinkles have recently beaten the Orangereds back from Periwin Grove, and we as a collective have taken the Marsh and another district. We should be prepared for the Orangered aggressors to try once more to take the Peak... please be on guard, and be prepared to help our brothers in other territories. Thank you for paying attention to this PSA.

Respectfully,

Ghost_of_onyx

FINALLY.

I would like to formally request citizenship to the Viper's Peak territory- I definitely fell in love with this place after a hard-won victory.

Standby!

EXCELSIOR!

Ok Chromans, are you ready for this shiz!

At 12am (Noon) EST on Saturday 29th June, the battle will begin. So in a few hours time. The battle will be eight hours long, and will work by the new battle system found here as well as these few edits:

Everyone will sign up in a different sub, and 12 hours before the battle the invade thread will open here, and everyone will have that long to get themselves ready and have all their troops here. Once the battle starts, it'll be just like the rules say, and go on for the next eight hours.

Most points at the end of the eight hours win!

If you have any questions, ask away.

The great volcano of Chroma shook menacingly, its hardened exterior cracking open from the pressure, and for the first time in hundreds of years, smoke arose from the peak.

Welcome one and all to the next battle ground, Vipers Peak. Vipers Peak located in scenic nowhere is right below the Midnight marsh and adjacent to Bezold. Here, the motto is, "Fire shall conquer all". That's right, Who ever brings the most fired up spirit will surely win this massive territory.

This is round 4 and a large battle shall be taken place here. If the Periwinkles win, the could wipe out they southern board. If the Orangereds take this, they will be considered an unstoppable force pushing west. This could be a major bonus for which ever side takes it, come the neutral wars.

Anyways, the battle is to be held on Friday at 12:00 and this may be changed so come back and check until officially confirmed. Also, I'm still trying to update the CSS so please mention your concerns to either a PM to me or a Mod message.

Hope to see you on the battle field! ~Danster21

EDIT: Confirmed! Battle will begin at 12:00 EST Friday night, Saturday morning.
