Rumours from Toronto for Early February 1998

High Society Wedding. Richard Wyler, head of Wyler Family Enterprises, and Sarah Chivalier of the Tempest Agency announced today that they would be getting married in May.

Overdue Investigation. An anonymous petition was sent to the Ventrue Justicar asking for an investigation into the death of Chelsea of Clan Ventrue, former Prince of Toronto.

Malkavian Civil War. Malkavians in several areas around the world have been talking about a trip to Toronto. It seems that for some reason the city holds a great deal of their attention.

One yelled "It must be destroyed" while the other yelled "We must help the chosen".

Stock Issue Scheduled. The business world is abuzz with the rumour that the Nakatomi stock issue has been moved back to the middle of March.

Police Look for Strange Man. Police have warned city employees to be on the lookout for a man with blue hair wearing a plaid jacket. They say that a man fitting this description has been harassing city employees, and trying to get information on the City of Toronto out of them.

More Flying Saucers. Three women in Toronto, report having been abducted by aliens. They report memories of being strapped to an operating table and hearing noise in the background.

All three women reported to police that they had been marked with a spiral shaped tattoo.
