Intro Log: No calls, please

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for March.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: March 10th-13th
Warnings: Fresh meat, floating plasma eyeball monsters in HD, disappointing infomercial products.

Good morning, and welcome to your first day in Hadriel. Feel free to acquaint yourself with the other travelers who are starting to wake up around you- or explore your surroundings for maximum survival odds!

You may notice that there are a few metal boxes lying on the dirt ground around you. At first these boxes seem innocuous, with no locks or mechanisms to keep them closed. However, any attempt at opening these them reveals that, not only is there absolutely nothing inside of them, but they just so happen to be a handy-dandy Scream-in-a-box from that stupid old Nickelodeon commercial. One peek and it echoes with a loud, bursting scream... though, anyone who tries to use this box to keep themselves awake will only succeed in pissing their neighbors off, because infomercials only exist to lie to you.

If you're concerned about something a little more sinister... well, you're right to be. Lurking in the shadowy corridors of the arena are Cacodemons, from the Doom game series. These nightmarish monsters travel around the area by floating a few feet off the ground. They are capable of firing plasma at you from their mouths, and their sharp teeth speak for themselves. While they're easy to shove back when they're not firing at you, they have a tendency to converge on a single target. You think you can handle one? How about five? Good luck... and try not to melt on your way out.

Once you've managed your daring escape from the colosseum, feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

Not the lodge? ❰ it hasn't quite clicked yet that she's 100% Not In Kansas Anymore. meanwhile, she's pushing herself up into a crouch, then using the wall to ease herself to her feet. ❱

Nah. Some weird alien house.

[He holds out a hand, in case she needs a little help. Might as well try to get on her good side, right? It won't last long, anyway.]

We're not on the mountain anymore.

[untowards]

Alien house, that's-... ❰ 'reassuring' is the obvious conclusion to that sentence, but she gets caught up trying to picture it while she readily accepts his hand up.

now that she's on her feet, she's shifting a little - stiffly, clearly under the false impression that if she subtly eases into the right position she'll stop hurting like a bitch at the tiniest jostle. ❱

Where are we, then? Swear to god, if you say 'a cave'...

[pighead]

[Now literally all he wants to say in the world is 'a cave'. Josh resists, though it takes a good amount of effort.]

They call the place Hadriel. We're all stuck here, there are gods and monsters. It's pretty weird. But hey, Chris and Em and Ash are all here too.
