March 2020 Rampage

The March 2020 rampage was a catastrophic event which occurred in late March of 2020.

Cause
In mid-March, 2020, an unidentified high-ranking member of the Canadian military (who was converted to the Cult of Emu sometime in 2019) released Emanuel Fialik, which proceeded to kill multiple staff members at the Fialik Containment Unit.

Destruction in Kingston
Fialik escaped the facility, using multiple new absorbed souls to fuel a before-unseen metamorphosis, stripping electrons from all atoms in a half-mile radius, instead using this as a way of fueling his transformation. As a result of this alternate method of energy gathering, Fialik was able to transform himself in to a sprawling, eldritch horror. This horrific new form crawled through the streets of Kingston in Ontario, Canada, where the Containment Unit previously stood. The initial explosion of the innumerable atoms torn apart by Fialik's metamorphosis killed thousands. The ensuing chaos caused by Fialik's rampage only added to the death toll. Not many other details about this event are known, due to heavy Government suppression using amnestic gas. Fialik was recaptured a day later, after use of thermal weaponry by the Canadian Government.
