Intro Log: Eight Legs No Heart

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for June.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: June 10th-15th
Warnings: Spiders. Soooo many spiders. New people. Probably swearing.


For once, the new arrivals to Hadriel will not be waking up on the cold hard ground of the colosseum. Oh, sure, you'll still awaken in the arena - but this time the Door has been kind enough to ensure that you wake up comfortably arranged in a very nice chair. Or maybe not so comfortably. Some of those look pretty awkward - hopefully you didn't wake up with a crick in your neck! And hey, feel free to try to drag some of these super cool chairs to your new homes. They're probably not cursed or anything.

As you make your way out of the arena, be careful getting to close to the walls - well, except that's the only way out, so good luck! Chilling up on there waiting to get the drop on you are Skulltulas. These funky-looking spiders have squishy underbellies, but their upper exoskeletons are hard and very difficult to break through. They really just want to nibble you a few times, and maybe suck out all of your blood. No big deal, right? Have fun!

Have you conquered your arachnophobia and managed to escape? Great! Feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

► This log covers June 10th-15th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► All characters arrive with phones that have network communication.
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

You're right about that, but this is tempting, no?

[Time to poke and poke and poke at this thing forever.]

I'm surprised there's any reception, since it seems like we're underground. Just another thing that lets me think there's got to be a way out of here. Cell phone networks don't just appear from the ether.

There has to be, sure. Unless it's some weird magical network set up by the gods or something. [he shrugs a bit] I dunno the specifics yet, but figuring that out is on my list.
keep_smiling: (this could be the smile your man smiles)

I'm guessing the list of things to figure out about this place is about a mile long. That's something I'd like to help out with. If I'm going to be stuck here for awhile, I might as well help uncover the mysteries. Sounds like fun!

[For some definition of fun, anyway. Elmer sticks out his hand for a handshake.]

Elmer C. Albatross. Nice to meet you!

It'll be something, alright. [fun, maybe. Perhaps it'll be actually possible here, unlike Haven. But at the handshake, he does straighten, turning towards him to take his hand]

Dr. Newt Geiszler. Call me Newt. [he grins a bit, before turning back to his gathering] So, Elmer, you seem pretty chill about this whole world-hopping thing. You done this before?
keep_smiling: (how's it goin')

[He's got an unsurprisingly enthusiastic handshake.]

Afraid not. But why get bent out of shape over it? I'd rather put my energy into exploring this place, and then finding a way home. Hopefully put some smiles on the faces of the other folks trapped here along my way, too.

Besides, I've seen a lot of things in my life. I'm almost not surprised by this whole mess.

[He grins, and shrugs. C'est le vie.]

[....what. Newt is just gonna...stare at him for a minute] Wow. That has got to be the most blasé attitude towards being kidnapped to another world that I've ever heard. [it doesn't sound negative, exactly...just perplexed]
keep_smiling: (i wonder if demons can smile too)

[personal profile] keep_smiling 2016-07-06 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Elmer waves it off amiably.] I've been though much worse than this, believe me. And someone will have to keep morale up through this mess. Or at least keep people smiling. Best to pick a goal and keep yourself busy, right?

[Newt can't help but chuckle at that] Yeah, dude. Goals definitely help. It gives you something to work on, if nothing else.
