Intro Log: Fly, My Pretties!

[hadrielmods]

What: The intro log for May
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: May 10th-14th
Warnings: Flying monkeys! New friends! Prosthetic limbs!

Here in Hadriel, we do introductions right. That means dumping you on the ground of an old Roman-style Colosseum with a bunch of scary monsters and also a bunch of weird shit. Your monster of the day happens to be Winged Monkeys, more commonly known as flying monkeys, from the Wizard of Oz and affiliated stories!

As you may have been able to guess, these creatures can fly and they're rather intelligent- intelligent enough to wield spears and daggers as crude weapons and strong enough to pick someone right up off the ground and fly with them to a perch, where they'll... you know, stab them with their knives and stuff.

Why? We don't know. It's Hadriel.

Just in case you lose a couple of limbs in the process of escaping these critters, we've got you covered. Scattered around the newbies are prosthetic limbs for various body parts. These limbs are all fully functional, even if they look a bit... odd, so if you've lost an arm or two, or a leg, or even a pinkie finger, feel free to grab one and try to figure out how to use it!

Good job dealing with those monkeys! It's kind of a weird thing to be threatening, but clearly someone was afraid of them once. Once you're done, you can 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!

Sometimes, it's nice not to dress like you expect a whole armed battalion to come tearing down the walls of your sanctuary at any given moment. Even if trouble does come, she still has means of fending off any threats bursting into her abode.

"Ah, really?" Rey blinks, still fiddling with her hair. It feels weird, but nice, being groomed as it is. "That... might be nice, actually. Atem did a pretty good job, and I was used to cutting my own hair before."

Which should come as a surprise to literally no one, given Rey's usual sloppy trimmed mop that the kid was somehow able to work with.

"Been a while since I really did anything with mine, but it's- Kind of unruly." As she can see. Still, it hasn't gotten much longer than past her shoulders. She trims it, keeps it looking alright.

"So working with someone else's hair might be cool. Besides, it's like. Bonding or whatever."
