Intro Log: HOLY F*^K THAT'S A F*&KI%G DRAGON

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for October
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: October 10th-13th
Warnings: New faces, new greeting posts, and dragons. What's more to want?

If your first thought upon waking up on the cold, hard ground of Hadriel's very own Colosseum is 'maybe I partied too hard last night', one, Delight would love you and two, you're wrong. Or- maybe you did, but that's not why you're here. Instead, you wake up with the same clothes you were wearing when you were last home, but surrounded by very different people. So, make some friends! Might as well voice your confusion and concern and show the technologically unsavvy of you how to operate these fancy new phones, right? Just be sure not to trip over these odd bags of chips on your way to greet your fellow man.

Don't spend too much time out in the open, though. There are monsters about, and not quite the usual ones. This month, Hadriel is bringing in four dragons, each with their own unique abilities and raidboss-esque stamina. They'll be terrorizing the city until someone puts them down- maybe that someone is you! Maybe you should, uh, actually hide. They're hungry and territorial and mean and they're definitely out for a good meal. Check out our OOC post for more information, as well as who will be eventually killing the beasts!

But hey, once you escape from the dragons, feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies.

New, as of October's intro log is a Newcomer's guide that installs itself by default on every activated phone. Thanks, Mello!

Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

► This log covers October 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!

YOU SEEM ANGRY.
THAT IS OKAY! THERE IS A LOT TO BE ANGRY ABOUT!
BUT BEING ANGRY CAN BE VERY TIRING. PERHAPS YOU WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THINGS YOU ENJOY INSTEAD!
IT WILL BE A NICE WAY TO GET YOUR MIND OFF OF THINGS.
I WILL GO FIRST!!
I LIKE CARS. WELL I MEAN I HAVE NEVER SEEN A REAL ONE BUT I THINK I WOULD LIKE ONE. I LIKE THE IDEA OF THEM! THEY ARE LIKE AN AMUSEMENT PARK RIDE, BUT FOR FREE!
WHICH I HAVE ALSO NEVER SEEN.
OKAY, NOW YOU GO!!

network; i am so so very sorry

[iustitiae]

[is this guy for real]

you went to a lot of trouble to display a hideous over used font
which i mean
i guess there's some merit to your tenacity

either way, i dont think talking about things that i like is going to alleviate anything in this messed up situation

I HOPE THREADJACKING IS OK

[skelebro]

what're you calling overused, buddy?

YES ALWAYS

[iustitiae]

is that
comic
sans

GOOD

[skelebro]

maybe.

[iustitiae]

why
i have so many questions

text --> video

[skelebro]

hey, it's rude to start with that.
let's start with an introduction.

[And with that, he switches to video.

How do you like them bones, Connor?]

The name's Sans. Sans the skeleton.

[iustitiae]

[holy shit
holy shit


holy shit]

I now have a completely different set of questions. The first ones seem irrelevant.

[skelebro]

Do ya, now?

[Sans, by contrast, has the biggest, most shit-eating grin you can imagine in your life. Though that...might just be his face. Yeah, it's probably just his face.]

Welp. I'm all ears.

[Get it? Because, you know - yeah, you get it.]

[iustitiae]

You literally have no ears.

[yes he got it]

[skelebro]

[He doesn't miss a beat, and simply shrugs.]

I'm all ossicles, then.

[iustitiae]

Okay. So. You're. A skeleton. That's a thing.

[skelebro]

Yep.

[Still not hearin' any questions here, pal.]

You doin' okay there, buddy?

[iustitiae]

You're enjoying this.

[i mean obviously that is why they switched to video]

[skelebro]

[So those "questions" he mentioned were purely theoretical, maybe...?]

Maybe I am, a bit. Unless you're talkin' about the smile. In which case, uh. That's just my face.

[iustitiae]

Is everyone skeletons wherever you're from?

[he cannot believe he's having this conversation.]

[skelebro]

Just me 'n my bro.

[That's right. Ol' Papyrus up there.]

[beautyis]

[Oh, hey, his brother is here! And the human seems confused! At least he is probably distracted from being angry now. But since those two are switching to video, Papyrus switches to video as well. Here's a more different skeleton for you, Connor.]

Oh! I am willing to answer questions! That is another good distraction from being angry!

Also, I am glad you noticed my tenacity! That is one of my better qualities, of which there are many! I, the great Papyrus, am a skeleton of many talents, you will soon find!

[iustitiae]

[oh no.....why...are they both...why is this his life]

Great. You're both skeletons.

[beautyis]

Yes, you are absolutely correct on both counts! We are both skeletons, and it is very great. You must be a human! You might say, "Papyrus, isn't it obvious that I am a human?" And you might be right in many cases! But one thing I have learned here, is that even people that look human, sometimes, are not very human at all! Isn't that interesting? Anyway, my brother and I are monsters! Skeleton monsters!

[iustitiae]

How can you say that so...cheerfully?

[truly this the weirdest part of all of it, although most of it is pretty weird for a guy like connor]

[beautyis]

I try my best to encourage cheerfulness in general! It can be contagious!

[Well? Are you feeling the cheerfulness yet, Connor?]

Anyway, this place can be dangerous, yes, and there are those dragons right now, but that doesn't mean it can't be nice.

[iustitiae]

[no. no he is not feeling cheerful. thanks.]

Why wouldn't a place that kidnaps you from home and then tries to feed you to dragons not be nice?

[beautyis]

Well, yes, it is true that no one really asked to be here. And neither did the dragons. I think Fear actively tries to make the place not so nice?? But there are very good people here!! You will meet them!! There are people who try to protect everyone, and people who heal each others' wounds... It is an upstanding community! One that I, Papyrus, am proud to be a part of!

[iustitiae]

[connor raises an eyebrow at that. it's not that he doubts what papyrus is saying, more that...]

What kind of community were you in before?
