Intro Log: Faceplanted

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for October
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: October 10th-14th
Warnings: Newbies, spookies, and evil trees!

If it's your first time here, congratulations! You get the lovely, unique sensation of eating dirt as the Door knocks you facefirst into the ground. You'll probably be a little woozy at first, so take your time getting up- meet some folks, introduce yourself, don't be weird about it. Welcome to Hadriel! You're not the only person who just got to taste alien dirt firsthand, though- there are several people in the same predicament as you, so feel free to say hi! Probably shouldn't spend too much time talking though, because the lovely trees that you thought were just scenery are starting to creep ever closer the more you let your guard down.

All around you is a forest of spooky evil trees- it seems to be just a normal sort of forest at first, but the more you take your eyes off of them, the more they shift around you and close in. Or is that just your imagination? If you move too close to one, look out! They're rather determined to pick you up and stick you into the ground so you might take root- and if you resist, well, a severed bud can still serve as a seed, right?

If the trees tear your clothes though, don't worry, there's plenty of extras to be found lying around the arena if you don't mind them being a bit dirty. Lying on the ground and sometimes hanging off of these tree branches are some free shirts, yours for the taking! You know, if you'd be caught dead with one...

But hey, after you've met new friends and found a new aesthetic, feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

Okay, well. This isn't a lingerie appropriate situation.

[ He turns around, relieved when she's fully dressed. ]

That's better, thank you. What shoe size are you?

[outofthefire]

It's not my fault that's what I was wearing when I died and came here.

[she smiles. it's not innocent, but it's not meant to be seductive, either. it's more of a knowing kind of smile]

I'm a size seven. I like pennyloafers.

[hardwearing]

About that. You don't remember being stabbed at all? Who were you with, in... that?

[ Okay, he'll look for something like that in her size. Give him a minute. ]

(cw: sexual reference, murder)

[outofthefire]

I remember being stabbed. I remember who stabbed me and why. As for why I was wearing what I was wearing, I was at a private sex party when I was kidnapped.

[she's got all the time in the world]
