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!

I don't know what an apartment is.

[Sorry to disappoint, Taako. Meanwhile, Molly simply accepts the fact he's being ogled. He has no real genuine charm to him, at least not in a typical sense, so if he doesn't have to work to be liked, he'll take it.

That's why he says nudity usually works. Gets you good and vulnerable straight away, and people like that. Even if your brand of vulnerability is less than honest.]

Liches, hm?

[Molly takes a moment to consider that, running a hand through his hair.]

That's a matter of opinion, isn't it? I'd know if they were liches.

[pocketspa]

[Well, he's not gonna explain what one is, so fuuuuuck that. Also, he's never used the nudity card on someone he wasn't trying to outwardly seduce, but. Yeah, this is working. Whoops.

Regardless, he quirks an eyebrow, because most people seem to not even know what liches are, let alone contest him on if the jerks running this place really are ones.]

How is being undead a matter of opinion? They drain your feelings and use them as power and they don't actually have bodies. Just float around like little clouds giving bad advice and wanting you to burn. Like, there are good liches around here, trust me-- you are talkin' to a guy with, uh, primo lich experience. But those dudes up top? Deffo liches. And shitty ones too.
