==Chain of Events ==
Prior to Incident
On February 17 2020, news of a new virus spreading throughout Wojcraft was announced by the Hyacinth Foundation known as 'Wojvid-14'. Hyacinth Publishing, the Foundation's publishing service, recommended wearing a mask in order to prevent the spread of the disease. This was followed by an additional announcement from the 'Rapture Today' newspaper, encouraging the citizens of Rapture to wear masks and help stop the spread. The responses to these announcements were instantly polarizing, some players taking the virus seriously, others claiming the virus to be fake. The strongest response was from Chrissant, the leader of the Third Order of Bethlehem, who claimed that these announcements would precede the formation of a new "world police" nation. He would claim the Foundation to be the embodiment of the 'Antichrist' shortly after, being the very first instance of the Foundation being referred to by such a title.
February 18 2020
On Thursday, February 18, Smogonite of the Hyacinth Foundation met with Tante, leader of Rapture, offering technology and viral infection testing software in exchange for Rapture testing their citizens for Wojvid-14. The testing began shortly after at St. Andrew Hospital located at the Northern end of Rapture with Hyacinth personnel working alongside hospital staff.
Rapture and the Foundation announced their testing, inviting not only Rapture citizens, but also citizens from other foreign nations to come to the hospital for testing. Of the two foreign citizens that arrived, EyeAmTheSolesbee would be tested and was found to be immune to the virus, donating his blood to the development of a cure.
==Murders==
Upon entering the first floor of the hospital, the perpetrator fired his shotgun point blank at a Rapture citizen, killing him with one shot to the chest and one shot to the leg. A Hyacinth staff member was heard shouting "SHOOTER!" before the gun was turned on a hospital staff member, who was then shot in the head, killing him instantly. The shooter turned his attention to a group of rapture citizens fleeing the scene and fired the remaining 5 rounds in his shotgun, killing 2 and injuring another.
The shooter moved upstairs to the Intensive Care Unit and pulled out his AK-47, opening fire on Hospital staff and patients. All 4 staff members present were killed on the scene and the shooter turned to small room separated by a glass pane and a door, containing a computerized testing system being operated by a single Hyacinth staff member. The shooter opened fire on the staff member however the bullets did not penetrate the glass. He would then fire his shotgun at the door, to no avail. The shooter could be heard shouting "open up, doctor!" as he tried to break down the door. He eventually gave up and searched the hospital for more targets.
After searching, the shooter eventually found a doctor hiding underneath a desk. The shooter would take the doctor hostage and lead him upstairs to the ICU, where he demanded that he open the door to the computer room. The doctor, not having clearance to access the room, begged the Hyacinth staff member to open the door, however the staff member refused, and the doctor was shot multiple times in the back.
Observing the door, the shooter noticed a weak point in the door which he shot with his shotgun, penetrating the door and hitting the Hyacinth staff member in the abdomen. The staff member would plead with the shooter, claiming "we were peaceful". The shooter was heard responding with "n*gga I am an active shooter" before firing one last time, fatally wounding the staff member in the head.
End of incident
The perpetrator remained in the ICU for a few minutes, pacing back and forth between the two walls and looking at the paintings hung above the hospital beds. The perpetrator was seen on the security cameras stopping in place, pulling out his shotgun. He was heard on CCTV saying "Everyone is dead." "Le cops have me surrounded." "Only one way out." before shooting the shotgun through the roof of his mouth.
==Perpetrator==
Due to the secrecy of the Third Order and their installation of Sector-07, little is known about the shooter. An autopsy done on the body described him as a "5'11" (180cm) white male in his early twenties, with abnormalities in brain volume consistent with those inflicted with Paranoid Schizophrenia". Eyewitness accounts as well as CCTV footage support the fact that the shooter was suffering from a form of Schizophrenia and possibly undergoing a psychotic episode, having been seen making erratic spontaneous movements, talking to himself frequently, screaming at random, and displaying extreme hypervigilant behavior, such as glancing around the room at random, being startled by slight noises, among other actions.
==Aftermath==
The attacks received condemnation from the Hyacinth Foundation, who encouraged the home nation of the perpetrator to take action regarding the incident. The Foundation would claim that the shooter's motive was to take the extracted blood of Wojcraft player EyeAmTheSolesbee, however it is unclear if the shooter was aware of the presence of this blood when he initiated the shooting.
Upon learning of the incident, Chrissant, leader of the Third Order of Bethlehem celebrated the attack, referring to the perpetrator as a "Hero Lone Wolf Shooter" and commending his actions, wishing for his soul to find rest.
In a public statement, Rapture leader Joseph Goldberg urged other nations to condemn the terror attack as well as condemn "the madness that is anti-maskers". In the statement, Goldberg stressed the severity of the virus, and announced that Rapture would end all relations with the Third Order of Bethlehem in response to their celebration of the attack, further stating that Rapture would be closing its doors to "any nation who does not have a formal alliance with Rapture" and imposing economic sanctions on the Third Order. Goldberg concluded the speech by urging all nations to make a statement on Wojvid-14 "as soon as possible".
The attack would stain relations between Rapture and the Third Order, as well as contribute to the start of the Rapture-Order war.
