Vortexes are mysterious gateways that lead to voids. They appear as large blue or yellow portals which can appear in mid-air, but can also be hidden inside objects. It is not known what causes vortexes.

History[]

Wellington Paranormal[]

On Christmas Eve 2019, officers O’Leary and Minogue were called to investigate a large amount of meat that went missing during a barbeque party at 12 Pamela Drive. The party host, Kevin, also mentioned that his elderly Aunt Flo was also missing. The officers searched his garden and found a vortex. Minogue tied himself to the garden hose and entered the vortex, finding himself in a strange dark void full of objects that had gone missing. He quickly found Flo, holding the tray of meat, and rescued her from the void.

Later that day, the cops were called to an office party where a worker had disappeared while photocopying himself. Correctly assuming that the photocopier was another vortex, Minogue sat on the glass and disappeared when the copy button was pressed. Minogue entered the void again and found Officer Fuzzypants, a teddy bear Sergeant Maaka lost as a child. Minogue left the void through another vortex, which turned out to be the one in Kevin’s yard, and found Jeff enjoying Kevin’s spa pool.[1]
