Intro Log: Puddle Jumpers

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for September
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: September 10th-13th
Warnings: Fresh meat, lots of rain and angry ogres

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!

I don't know what would you have to gain? Aside from my control given how little I know of this place, being a new arrival. It would only take hiding a food source to make someone bend to your will, wouldn't it?

[ His inherent distrust for humans is so apparent but he really has his reasons for it, honestly. Still he'll straighten only to flex his claws, rubbing them together so the sound of metal scraping against metal is heard. ]

Very well, but if this happens to be a trap I don't take being fooled lightly.

[Her expression shifts to deadpan. Spirits, he really hasn't changed from how she remembers him.]

I'm volunteering to help you find it. If I wanted to blackmail you with it I'd have to know where it was already.

[And look at the size of him! She's not that stupid.]

Besides, you can turn into a jet plane. It wouldn't take you long to find out where I was hiding it, would it?

[ Starscream still doesn't look like he trusts her at all. There's all sorts of ways this could go badly and he's had enough bad experiences with humans to know not to trust them. ]


Perhaps you already do. Who am I to really say what's been found here or not. But if you try anything, know that I don't take kindly towards being made a fool. But you're right, I can find and track you easily, so don't get any ideas.

[ He'll say with a sneer and rather angry tone to his threat. ]

[writtendestiny]

You're making threats to try and get me to not do things I've already said I'll not do. [She points out flatly, pursing her lips for a moment. Of course he won't trust her. Spirits, she doesn't expect him to, but this is actually going a little better than she anticipated.

Poison places her hands on her hips.]

So, where shall I look first.
