<P> Welcome to Night Vale's plot consists of longform storytelling . Individual episodes usually function as standalone narratives and only rarely contain significant developments in storyline . The writers employ running jokes and plot arcs, advanced slowly through the events described in the podcast . For example, The Glow Cloud, one of the series' most iconic characters, hypnotizes the townspeople with its colors and noxious gas, making people chant "ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY GLOW CLOUD", and eventually becomes president of Night Vale's school board . Another running joke is that the job with the highest death rate is being an intern at the radio station; the only interns and former interns who are currently alive include (in order of appearance) Cecil, Chad Bowinger, Dana Cardinal, Maureen, Vithya and Kareem . </P> <P> Characters and narratives may emerge and develop slowly, while unrelated stories may combine to form new plot points . Major stories which have occurred include the development of a romantic relationship between Cecil and Carlos; the stranding of several characters, including Carlos, in a "desert otherworld"; the invasion of Night Vale by the corporation StrexCorp, from the rival town of Desert Bluffs, and StrexCorp's eventual expulsion from Night Vale; the 2014 mayoral elections, with subsequent terrorist activities by failed mayoral candidates The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your Home and Hiram McDaniels; and the complications surrounding McDaniels' subsequent imprisonment and trial . The series' fourth anniversary in June 2016 coincided with a two - part climax to the most recent storyline: the invasion of Night Vale by mysterious strangers, led by a demonic beagle puppy accidentally summoned from Hell by Chad Bowinger, a former radio intern . The early plot point of a miniature city buried under the town's bowling alley resurfaced after this, in addition to the sporadic appearance of Huntokar, a deer - headed deity with connections to both the tiny city and Night Vale's unusual nature . </P> <Ul> <Li> Dylan Marron as Carlos, Cecil's scientist boyfriend and later husband . </Li> <Li> Jasika Nicole as Dana Cardinal, former Night Vale Community Radio Intern and current Mayor of Night Vale . </Li> <Li> Kevin R.
