Rumor: The drug made from demon blood, primarily called Fall on the streets, has made the rounds again in a big way. The word is that if a vampire feeds on someone high on the stuff there's a chance of a pretty bad interaction taking place. Like someone getting hospitalized bad. The rumors vary, with some people saying it makes the vamp sick while others say it makes them go into a crazed blood lust. As of now, no one knows for sure.

Who's Hearing It?: Again, Manta Carlos police and the criminal elements of MCI are the most likely to know. However discussion about the Fall interactions are cropping up on online discussion boards.

Rumor: End of the month. That is when Stefan Jogstad is supposed to be releasing his first album. The artist has supposedly been working near non-stop in the studio at Wonderville Records to complete it since being signed after the Performance Festival. It is rumored to be a mix of pop-rock and dance/electric with several high tempo songs.​

Who's Hearing It?: Those involved in the music community, and close friends would have been the first to hear it. Anyone that started keeping up with Stefan after the performance festival would follow, as well as anyone keeping up with Wonderville Records or just enjoying the specific genre.​

He also appears to have grown a tail.
