If the rain on your face isn't enough to wake you up in the colosseum, maybe the thundering footsteps and- well, thunder- is. The first thing that you may notice is that it's incredibly wet around here, with winds that could knock you over if you aren't careful and thunder that brings with it a torrent of constant rainfall.
That's all fine though, because the gods saw fit to help you out on your way in and now everyone will be waking up wearing a rain coat! These coats are a little odd, and some of them are downright silly, but we trust that you'll make do. Of course, a few of the raincoats have additional sleeves, neck holes, and entirely too many buttons as well- but hey, it's the best we could do.
Wait, what was that about thundering footsteps? Oh right, as you're navigating your new fashion choices, there are some monsters afoot who will want nothing more than to grind you into a pulp and eat you- well, if you're organic, that is. If you're not organic, then they still want to grind you to a pulp, but maybe not so much the eating part.
Ogres are from many fantasy stories, but these in particular are from the Dragon Age series. With incredible strength and stamina and massive horns, fangs, and a bloodlust for violence, these monsters won't stop until everyone around them is a blood smear on the ground. They're also not too happy about this rainfall either, so be careful not to slip in the puddles as you run away from them!
Once you've splashed around a bit, feel free to run off into the stormy abyss of our islands. 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!► This log covers September 10th-13th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► All characters arrive with phones that have network communication and the newbie guide installed.
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

He probably shouldn't focus on this now, though, especially when there's nothing that can be done about it. Thankfully the subject shifted. He glances down at himself, taking the look in stock for the first time. It's now when he realizes that the pink things on his hood are petals. He was just a touch busy worrying about other things when he first came to. Ah.]
Nice to meet you, Michael. I'm Sal. [This is quite the look, honestly.] And uh, thanks, but I just woke up with it. It's not usually my kind of style.
[Spoken jokingly more than defensively.]
I guess it was nice of someone to make sure I stay dry but I would have appreciated them making sure I stay alive instead.
[Get it? Because of the giant monsters. Haha...]
no subject
Yeah, nice to meet you, except, you know, wish the circumstances weren't... these.
[He also wishes the Door would stop sucking in kids? It's unfair enough to put adults through all this, but children? That's pretty messed up.]
If it makes you feel better, it probably wasn't a person that put that on you? It probably just happened. [You know, magic or whatever.] Stuff like that is, uh, unfortunately not uncommon here. At least it has the right number of arm holes?
no subject
Though, just kind of happening - that he's used to. Sometimes he finds random things in his possession, no big deal.]
Yeah, I guess I'm pretty fortunate. It even fits! [Small silver linings - he'll take them where he can get them.] By the way, speaking of 'this really weird thing is super common here'...Hadriel, you said that's the name of this place, right? Is it like...far outside of Nockfell, or what?
[He's sure he already knows the answer to this, but he has to ask.]
no subject
It's... Well, wherever Nockfell is, this isn't anywhere near there. As far as I know, no one who's come through Hadriel has ever recognized it. You can think of it as, like, another universe? Like a... parallel dimension.
[Because that's basically what it is. A small pocket of city that moves around different worlds.]
It sucks, but we're all kind of... stuck here.
no subject
Another universe? Alright, well, sure...[He doesn't sound disbelieving. In fact, he sounds more like he's making an effort to wrap his head around it. Really, it...isn't as surprising as it should be, perhaps because of a few things he's discovered recently. Sure, another universe. Makes sense in the wacky thing he calls his life.] It was a long shot, but just thought I'd ask.
It sounds like there are a few other people who've ended up in this situation, though, right? At least I know I'm not alone.
[Not that he wishes this kind of thing on anyone.]
no subject
Oh, uh, yeah. There's like... I don't know, forty or fifty of us? A bunch. All different kinds.
[Kind of an understatement. There's all different species. And hopefully they don't all disappear again.]
There's food and stuff, too, and places you can stay. Place isn't much, but it's livable. Even with the, uh, monster problem.
no subject
I'm not that picky anyway. I lived in New Jersey.
[That's a joke. Of course, thinking on it, it's a joke that might not even land because...different universes?]
...That probably means nothing to you though, huh?
no subject
Nah, I'm from Earth. And I lived in New York for a while, I get you.
[Not that like, most of the States doesn't know about New Jersey jokes.]
Though I guess being from Earth doesn't necessarily mean anything. There are apparently versions of Earth where there's just magic and dragons and elves and stuff everywhere.
[Which, he realizes, might be Sal's version. Whoops.]
no subject
Dragons and elves...sounds like something out of a fantasy novel. [It's safe to assume from the wonder in his voice that that's not the case for him, at least. Not that his Earth isn't weird as fuck.] Where does this place fit in? Is it like...a dragon and elves kind of place?
[The Colosseum and monsters kind of give him a hint, honestly, but you never know!]
no subject
[Wow, how does he describe Hadriel? Or, he guesses, the world Hadriel is in right now?]
Well there's these, uh, beings? And they call themselves gods, but they're not really gods? They're like... I don't know, powerful aliens? Anyway, there's also monsters around here, obviously, but other than that, it's just... whoever's stuck here. Some of them have magic and some of them don't.
no subject
Sounds diverse.
[Which is pretty exciting to him. He likes meeting new people. Now he'll be meeting new people who come from completely different realities. It's cool!]
At least there's never a dull moment, from the sounds of it. [Hopefully he gets attacked way less in the future. He won't bet on it, knowing his luck, but one can hope.] Thanks a lot for filling me in...it doesn't seem like an easy thing to explain, so I appreciate it.
