Mikazuki Arion Works a Citywide Blackout Case in GTA V Roleplay, Then Opens Blind Boxes
The streamer, nursing a sore throat, spent the night on the police side of a roleplay server after an explosion cut power to the whole city.
INDEPENDENT — Mikazuki Arion spent a two-hour GTA V roleplay stream on duty with the police of a roleplay server whose city lost all power after an explosion. Officers said a group of residents had protested over electricians’ pay and threatened a blackout, and that the blast near the Palmer area burned out the generators. The city’s computer terminals and phone signal went down with them.
Early in the night, a server announcement said power had been rerouted to a first generator for 30 minutes, long enough for officers to file reports and look up residents. The lights failed again later in the evening. Police said two suspicious accounts had been tied to the blast. They consulted the Department of Justice, which asked for an incident report before it would issue a warrant, and officers prepared to raid a gathering spot once it did.
“Dota is hard to learn, impossible to master.” — Mikazuki Arion, on why a Deadlock stream is unlikely
A related case went wrong. Officers sent to follow up on a dispute between two gangs shot at the wrong group, and the group they hit returned fire. The officer who fired was given a strike point and had the sniper rifle frozen for a time. Illegal weapons and ammunition were seized and no one was jailed. The rest of the session was mostly banter between officers, over promotions, a possible move to the SWAT unit and who should be next in line for senior posts.
Arion opened the stream saying a day of housework and rebuilding the studio had left no energy for the stream originally planned, so the night became a free talk alongside GTA. The streamer took liquid medicine for a sore throat early on and asked viewers whether the voice sounded all right. After signing off from the roleplay, Arion unboxed blind-box figures, one of which seemed to be missing its staff until it turned up still in plastic, mentioned a newly built glass cabinet that had cracked, and explained why a Deadlock stream is unlikely: its item system felt like Dota’s, and the game was too much to learn.
Arion said the next stream would be Tuesday if the throat improved, and Wednesday if not.
