Intro Log: Arm Yourself

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for August
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: August 10th-15th
Warnings: Stalkers, newbies, and cute loot!


Sleeping on the cold dirt ground of the colosseum is enough to make anyone uncomfortable. It might be a little worse this month than others, as some of you may be waking up on top of or around various self defense devices (btw: that last one is a taser).

Come to think of it, you'll probably need those. Also in the colosseum and already stalking you are... uh, well, stalkers from the Borderlands game series. Stalkers come armed with claws, teeth, and sharp tails- and what's more, they can turn invisible to sneak up on you. Zap them with your newfound taser or stab them with your jewelry comb knife or just run away screaming- we won't judge, but you have to do something or else they'll kill you and eat your corpse and all sorts of unfortunate things.

Good luck finding a way out. Maybe you can make some friends along the way.

All done and escaped from the clutches of the colosseum? Awesome! 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 August 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!

[Corbin hasn't really figured out the schedule of new arrivals yet, but he's been making a habit of at least flying over the Colosseum on regular intervals, just to see if anyone else had shown up. After all, he'd been told that people would show up, so it's only a matter of time until they do.]

[He flies over the Colosseum as a crow when he sees the blonde girl get up and then... approach one of the monsters? What the hell, she was either a lot scarier than she looked or... really dumb. Either way, that thing she was approaching wasn't friendly, so Corbin, cursing under his breath, dove for the Colosseum floor.]

[Of course, what lands in the dirt in front of Misa isn't precisely a crow, he changes as he drops the last few feet, and when he hits the ground and stands he looks like a seven foot tall, humanoid, bipedal crow.]

Miss, yer gonna wanna go t'other way.

[And then it disappears]

Sheeit.

[He backs away from the place he last saw the monster, trying to keep himself between Misa and whatever it was. He didn't trust that it had run away.]

[Misa screams bloody murder as a second monster drops down right in front of her, jumping back and brandishing a comb-knife rather unmenacingly. How many shinigami are in this place?]

Who- who are you? What is this place?

[Whoever he is, he seems to think that the other monster is a threat to her, which doesn't bode well. It might be scary looking, but it wasn't like shinigami attacked people. If it pulled out a notebook then she might have something to worry about.]
crowboy: (Caw!)

[Well, who is better than what, even if the scream wasn't that encouraging. He knows his voice sounds more like a harsh croak than his usual drawl, but there's not much he can do about that.]

Corbin. This's Hadriel. I c'n tell...

[The stalker doesn't care too much for pleasantries, decloaking and leaping for Corbin with a shriek. After that it's leathery wings and feathers and a lashing tail as they wrestle on the ground and he rakes at it with clawed feet. The stalker gets loose and jumps away, though it seems to be bleeding.]

[Corbin stands up, feathers sticking together on one leg where there's a gash, keeping an eye on the thing.]


D'ya see enny kinda door? Y' needa head for't.

[He'd picked up one of those pink... things and he grins when he figures out how to trigger it and it makes the characteristic crackle of a taser. It looks strange in his clawed hands, but he gets a feeling this thing won't like getting shocked.]
lovesickkiller: (Can we not and say we did?)

[Misa instinctively covers her ears and closes her eyes when the creature attacks. She has never had any need for fighting reflexes until today, and they are woefully lacking. The sound of Corbin's voice brings her around enough to hesitantly start looking for a way out.]

I don't see...

[On the far side of the arena is what looks like it might be a door, but there are plenty of people and creatures between them. Misa glances back at Corbin; he's already injured. Should she leave him behind and make a run for it? But what if she needs his help again?]

There!

[She points toward the door, not at all convinced that whatever lies beyond it is going to be better.]
crowboy: (You gonna eat that?)

[personal profile] crowboy 2016-08-17 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Corbin holds the little taser out and turns it on, making it crackle. And no, the stalker definitely doesn't like that, stepping further away and disappearing with a whiff of purple and a weird popping noise.]

[Corbin glances over at the door, it's a bit far, but he thinks they can make it. He's still fine, for the most part, or he will be, if he just keeps going.]


Alrigh'. Hold onter me.

[And with that he reaches over, scooping up the blonde girl, careful not to scratch her with his talons. Even in his human form he probably could have picked her up, but like this he's a good bit stronger, and provided she doesn't wiggle too much, he can carry her with ease.]

[He sets off for the door at a run, most of the other monsters seem to be ignoring them, but he's wary about that one that's disappeared, it might still be following them. It's not like he can fight the thing with his hands full of Misa.]


Keep 'n eye out fer that monster foll'in' us.

[He'll feel a lot better once they're out of here]

[Misa does the exact opposite of his instructions, shrieking and flailing in his grasp. It's only once Corbin starts running that she settles down and seems to accept that being carried by the giant beast is in her best interest. With no small amount of reluctance, she pulls herself up to take a look over his shoulder.]

I don't see it...
crowboy: (Well shit)

[personal profile] crowboy 2016-08-21 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Luckily for Corbin, her flailing mostly hits his beak and not anything too important, like his eyes. But it is difficult to run until she settles down, and that gets some croaky sounding grumbling from the giant crow thing.]

[He's keeping an eye on things himself as he lope-hops toward the exit. Crow feet, even werecrow feet, aren't really made for running, and with his arms full of Misa he can't glide like he might normally to make himself go faster.]


Keep lookin', I don't think it gave up...

[Behind Corbin there's that whiff of purple and a strange noise as the Stalker blinks into, and then back out of, sight. It's still behind them, even if it's hanging back, possibly trying to figure out what to do about Corbin. It's bleeding at least, and a good bit more than Corbin is, one of the "wings" on one side is pretty well shredded from their earlier fight]
lovesickkiller: (It's the fear)

[personal profile] lovesickkiller 2016-08-30 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Misa jolts when the monster suddenly appears, yelling despite her proximity to Corbin's ear. She clings to him for dear life and hides her face against his shoulder, before remembering that she is supposed to be on lookout and reluctantly lifting her head back up.]

It's following us!
