A Maelstrom is a celestial event that brings the supernatural to the mortal world.[1]
Circa 1899, the first Maelstrom impacted the world during an eclipse,[2] opening Astral Gates, bringing back dead spirits such as Vindicta and forever transforming Dynamo.
50 years later,[3] in the present day, a second Maelstrom is about to occur.[4] Two teams of six (or seven) individuals are fighting in the Cursed Apple in an attempt to complete a complex ritual and summon a Patron to grant their wishes.[5]
The Maelstrom is estimated to last between 20 minutes and 2 hours,[6] during which mystic energy is at its apex.[7]
The OSIC has warned New York citizens to stay indoors for the duration of the Maelstrom.[8]
