Intro Log: DIY Survival

What: The intro log for July
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: July 10th-14th
Warnings: Who's that Pokémon?


You wake up on an alien planet. All around you are things that might be familiar- rocky ground, stone columns of a colosseum, overcast and dreary clouds above- but there's a lingering doubt in the back of your mind that you're not where you should be. Nearby, there are a dozen or so other people going through the same thing, so maybe you can stop and say hello... or, if you're more of an antisocial type, you might sneak away before anyone takes special notices of you.

Be careful of sneaking too far though, because you may run across an unfriendly Kabutops! From the Pokémon franchise, Kabutops is a prehistoric creature with scythes for hands that can cut through the water (and human flesh) like it's nothing. Its skin is rough and difficult to penetrate with basic weapons, and contrary to what anyone canon-savvy may expect, they are impossible to tame- so you might try to run while you can.

If you manage to escape from the pointy dinosaurs, you may find some hip new ways to accessorize! Strewn about the ground with the new arrivals are an assortment of bedazzlers in various states of functioning! They may only have two stars on Amazon, but Bedazzlers are a cultural landmark, easily used to bling up your lifestyle! Alongside the various equipment are, of course, various studs, gems, sequins, rhinestones, and anything else that you could possibly attach to some clothing or hand towels or curtains or underwear with a Bedazzler kit. Happy crafting!

If you've finished collecting all you need for your new home decoration, 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!

( Hope is a high risk thing. The rewards addicting, the let downs crushing. It's all but impossible to fully guard yourself from it, as Kate knows all too well. Life would have been very different if she'd learned the trick to that.

Still. Preparing serves people well.

Her lips purse and she mulls over the openings of the Door since the invasion, the last big battle Hadriel fought.

Seven months, I think.

That is a long time for nothing to go wrong.

[Even in Gull she might have said the same thing, but the Box had made her more cynical than she already was. Seven months? She would have been questioning it far before now in that other place, where barely a month would go by without some kind of disaster that killed dozens.]

What should we expect?

Seen zombies before. Slow things. ( Not like the zombies that existed in the movies back in her world. They were less scary than they were annoying, really. ) Shit tried to possess people once. Rage made people want to kill each other.

( But the worst ones really? )

Monsters'll be let loose if the Null attack again.

( It's a pretty good tactic, true. They distract the Null and build fear for the eponymous God, but it means that the people fighting down in the city have another enemy to worry about. )

Let loose?

[She tips her head slightly, her eyebrows briefly lifting. So far, nothing she's seen here, or heard of happening has even come close to the horrors she's had to endure in her two years under the tender care of the Technicians, but she has to remember that everything is relative.

These people have suffered, too.

How many of them can swim?

( It's more the constant ricocheting, if you asked Kate to put into words why it's so bad. For every monster attack and forced bloodlust, there's the stupid things, the good things. Things like overly competitive paintball and waves of self-indulgence. Breathers that make it easy to let your guard down and forget that this place is just fine with hurting and killing you for the sake of the gods getting their feed. )

No idea.

( She's pretty sure the ones that can't have been killed by now, because there's nowhere for them to go. )

Who knows what's down in th' sea.
