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!

Very much so. I'm just waiting for one to happen here.

[It seemed like the type of place that remained quiet until a bomb got dropped.]

[dedikated]

( Oh, that would be incredibly accurate. If anything, the relative smooth sailing of things since the invasion was defeated has left Kate antsy and tense, as though waiting for the other shoe to drop. )

Getting bored?

( She can't blame anyone if they were. When the chaos is over, all that's left is a derelict city with too few people and not enough to do. )

[stealyoursoul]

Just a tad. I was always kept busy before I ended up here.

[Perhaps a bit too much so. Leo's idea of a good night's sleep was not getting woken up after three or four hours.]

[dedikated]

( Now if that isn't something she relates to hard, though the days of being sleep deprived are long behind her, thankfully. )

Either boring or crazy. Nothing in between.

( Basically, Hadriel is like the world's shittest holiday. Nothing to do and then everything goes wrong and you're just pissed off. )
