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!

:D!!!

That's fair, a lot of people like to do the same. Kate generally looks favourably on these people for their sensible decision making and judgement that they likely will need to come here eventually. Her expression shifts a touch - not quite a smile, but more relaxed than not, heading further into the clinic and waiting for him to follow.

"Staff're from all sorts of worlds. Skills range from basic first aid to power-based healing and psychology," she explains, leaning against the wall by the staircase as she does. "City doesn't have much technology. Limits what we have on offer, unfortunately."

Keith nods as he listens, following along after Kate to see more of the clinic and what it has to offer. It seemed like tech was hit or miss from what little he had seen of the city so far.

He knew basic first aid himself, he had to take care of himself before the while defender of the universe thing, but it was good to know where to go for things beyond what he could handle.

"The guide said something about scavenging for supplies?"

[dedikated]

A nod to his question. Good to know he's on the side of people who have read the guide, rather than the ones who don't.

"Aye," she confirms, looking over at a cupboard down the hall they just walked. "Usually from shops here." Of which there are plenty, but she has yet to notice any real rhyme or reason to the stuff that's in them, beyond 'at least you're fed and clothed'. "Free to make deals with the gods for anything you want."

It's a complicated issue, but Kate sees no reason to not use the gods' abilities as a resource if they can.
