Intro Log: Please Remove Metal From Luggage

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for August
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: August 10th-13th
Warnings: New folks, metal falling apart, fun stuff

As you wake up on the sand of the colosseum, gazing up at cloudy gray skies, you might wonder what you're doing here. Where are you? How did you get here? You'll figure it all out soon enough, so try to clamp down on that rising panic, or you just might end up in a dangerous situation.

Because, of course, you're not the only thing that arrived. The Door has also chosen to pull in some rust monsters. These monsters may look a bit like insects, but they're much larger, with a rather vicious bite. You can fight them, but be careful - anything metal that touches them instantly begins to corrode. Your sword, a bullet from your gun, even your robot friend. Might want to keep a little distance.

And that's not all. Scattered across the ground of the colosseum can be found a variety of unique and delightful musical instruments. If you're the musical sort, maybe you can figure out how to play one - or maybe you already know. Hopefully no rust monster has wandered too close to the one you want to try, or you might find that it's missing important metal bits.

Once you've found a way to express the song in your heart, feel free to leave whatever bit of safety you've found. 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!

Yeah, stuff like that. Like some kinda neighborhood watch or something. Admittedly, I should probably do more research on them myself.

[unphase]

Oh. That would be something? Do you think our powers would be a bonus or a drawback?

[itsnotaonesie]

I cant imagine them being a drawback. If anything, they could probably use a few heavy hitters helping them out.

[unphase]

I'll have to look into it, then. Joining is worth a try. Are you going to?

[itsnotaonesie]

I'd thought about it? I'm used to working alone, though. Think I'm just gonna keep doing things my own way for now.

[unphase]

That's fair. But if you ever need any backup, I'm a call away.

[itsnotaonesie]

I will definitely keep that in mind, and you let me know if you ever need a hand. I can't fly, but I can still get there pretty quick.

[unphase]

It's a deal. [goes for a handshake that could totally turn into a hug]

[itsnotaonesie]

Nice.

[And he goes in for a handshake that could totally turn into a high five. What about a hug-five? Handshakes are flexible that way.]

[unphase]

[they don't really high five in the 30th century, so she's briefly confused before she gets that she's supposed to slap his hand with hers, but she figures it out and does so. and the hug kind of turns into a one armed bro hug]

[itsnotaonesie]

[People have evolved past high fives how is this possible??? Take that back to the future and resurrect the art of high fives, Tinya.

One armed bro hugs are good too.]

[unphase]

[they have in Bgztl and those are the customs she's used to. Earth likely still has them, but Lyle is the only Terran Legionnaire and he's the "too cool" type.

yay for one armed bro hugs!]
