The Ocarina refers to the power of the Harbingers to manipulate reality via submissions of videos, images, and sound files. It is implied that this power was bestowed to the players by Luna herself. Tenebris also seemingly has the ability to both utilize and transfer this power.

Usage

Players can utilize The Ocarina by posting images, videos, or sound files wherever The Ocarina is currently being hosted. This is a process known as "Submitting". The location where The Ocarina is hosted has changed throughout the course of Johnisdead. It is usually hosted on a website such as Within Hubris or Lunarchildren.com. The effects of the submission depend on what exactly was submitted and they usually effect the current Link. Example: the "Song of Storms" is likely to result in a storm manifesting near the Link. Submissions generally need to be images, videos, or sounds originating from The Legend of Zelda series. However, there have been a few rare exceptions to this rule.

History

The players first discovered the power of The Ocarina on September 19th, 2010 during Ben Drowned. Tenebris congratulated them for realizing their abilities, though he warned that this power could easily double as a hindrance.[1] Sure enough, due to several poorly timed submissions, the players ended up harming a few of their allies.[2] This happened near the beginning of Johnisdead as well in 2015, with players nearly killing Doug and Mason at multiple points.
