Intro Log: Don't Wake Tonberry

[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: Cute monsters, a way to pass the time, and plenty of newbies!

Waking up in Hadriel certainly has its down sides, but if this weird murdercave city is good at one thing, it's keeping people entertained. As you awaken on the hard ground of the colosseum, you might see a rectangular cardboard box lying near you. Ignore it for now, as you get your bearings, but if you get bored? Well, you'll find these exciting and unique board games will keep you entertained!

But how could you possibly get bored, when there are plenty of cute monsters around to keep you company? Sharing the colosseum with all the new arrivals are Tonberries. In addition to their natural cuteness defense, they also carry very large knives. They're slow-moving and look innocent and even friendly, but be careful - one strike from that knife and you'll be a bloody mess. They won't attack unless you get too close, but who doesn't want to hug a Tonberry? And of course, if you attack, they'll counter with extreme prejudice.

Managed to resist the urge to hug a Tonberry? Safely escaped from the clutches of the colosseum, new board game in tow? 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!

[ Wolfie smells friend. ]

Me too. What's going on?

[ Matt didn't come back to the lodge with Em, Mike doesn't want to think about what's happening — or has happened — to him on that mountain. ]

[meatbrained]

I've-- ( got no idea. but Em did explain a few things. ) Uh, we've all been brought here by some gods... that's what I've heard, anyway. ( god, does he have to explain this? his head's still spinning about it. )

[snowballers]

You really believe that?

[meatbrained]

( you know, it sounds completely unbelievable, and he kind of wishes he... didn't believe it, but. )

I don't think Em was lying, no.

( she at least believes that much. )

[snowballers]

And we know Emily is always right.

[ There's learnt fondness in it, but Mike shakes his head, snapping out of it. ]

Still looks pretty fuckin' weird to me.

[meatbrained]

You and me both.

( trying to accept it is one thing. considering it normal? nope. )

Just trying to take this one step at a time, you know?

( which is hard when so much info is being dumped at you. )

[snowballers]

Yeah.

[ He sighs, and rubs his temple. ]

Least there's no wendigos s'far as I know. We'd be in a whole lot more trouble.

[meatbrained]

( Wenda-what?

SORRY, MIKE. kid is clueless. )

The less monsters, the better.

( he has had quite enough of this bullshit already. )

[snowballers]

Amen to that, man.

[ Later. They can compare notes when they're both fed and rested, though Mike doesn't see either on the horizon for him. He's taut, expecting the wendigos. ]

Come on. You wanna do some exploring?

[meatbrained]

( he nods, because hell yeah. this place is weird and deserves to be explored. )

Let's go.
