Dream Flash Mob

The Great Dream Flash Mob, or simply the Dream Mob, was an event that occurred the evening of May 27th, 2021. It involved over a dozen individuals, roughly half of whom had switched their player skins to that of the famous Minecraft streamer and youtuber Dream. 
== Background ==
Earlier that day (27 May 2021), a number of citizens of the Aurlûnor Velande met at the manor of Aelfiel Meng (ItsAlfy) in the imperial capitol of Lhûmar. The first half hour or so involved a small party in the basement of the manor, with copious amounts of absinthe involved. It is alleged that the velereth herself, Sareariel Lelya-Earcala (Coffeeccubus) got so drunk she appeared to descend 10 kilometers below the bedrock level (though others in the room merely saw her sitting on the floor vomiting). Regardless, a good time was being had that even Anastasia Athos of Ryzan joined the affair from across the border. 
The party moved from the basement up to the dining room of the manor, and alcohol was replaced with celestial tea. One of the attendees tried out the /skins set <player> command to disguise themselves as Entropy, and the rest followed suit with the command, disguising themselves as other famous Minecraft/Stoneworks users such as Stoney, Enfys, Athaz, and the infamous 2B2T hacker Popbob(not the old trollface skin, however, but her current trans flag skin). They also stumbled upon a user named "Entropy" whose skin was a red Club Penguin penguin. Coffee suggested that the group, who at that moment had switched their skins to that of testificate villagers, should go mob a public place and demand trades from other players.
Eventually cycling through the skins of various other famous Minecraft users, the group collectively took Dream's skin. All hell broke loose from then on.
== The Mobbing of Spawn ==
First on the list was the spawn market. There's almost always people there, and the mob would be sure to give a hearty "WTF" to any new players joining the server for the first time. Sure enough, there were people unfortunate enough to be caught selling iron and gold at that time on that fateful day. The Discord voice call the Dream mobsters were in was full of incessant laughter to the point where granabam claimed that "[her] f**king sides [were] in orbit" and that she was getting lightheaded, and the ingame chat was full of both perplexion and awe at the sight.
Clearly some were not amused at the sight, as a number of people in the chat decried Dream as being "overrated", and decrying the mob as rabid "dream stans". Coffee logged off to go get the coronavirus vaccine, but the mob acquired Breton Aeronaut, initiating him into the group by mobbing him as they would anyone else. However, from then on the group slowly lost members and cohesion as they visited multiple locations around Rathnir proper. 
== Mobbing of Fornost and Bardonia ==
Bored of hanging around spawn, the mob decided to head out into the more populous cities of Rathnir. The first on their list was the city of Fornost, where each Dream would slowly teleport in, one by one. However, the group here was met with antagonism, as the citizens of the town here had weapons and armor and could easily kill the unarmed Dream mobbers and claim that they were defending their territory from foreign raids. When granabam asked user Robot_girlyman if they were "a femboy", the locals responded by giving her an impromptu execution on the spot and running the other Dreams out of town.
The mob attempted to regroup at New Dorasterrock in Bardonia, briefly meeting in the small hut at their spawn. They would also visit old Dorasterrock but were quickly ran out of that town as well. At that moment, many in the ingame chat were celebrating the mass killing of the Dream-skins, with comments like "F**K YEA GET EM" and "oh ok. kill them". They would briefly mob Lobopolis in small numbers, but at that point there were multiple players going around hunting the Dream mobsters wherever they were found. Proposed plans to mob Walmart were never realized.
Trying to escape persecution, Anastasia briefly reverted to Popbob's skin. This was met with just as much awe and much less malign from the players, at least compared to the Dream skins. She would later attempt to start the hashtag #freedrem to protest the rampant slaughter, and to have people judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their (Minecraft) skin.
By about 6:20 pm EST, the mob had effectively been suppressed or otherwise petered out, with the players reverting to their previous skins and/or logging off the server for the night.
