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!

"I doubt it."

Bruce promises, based solely on the fact that Wade is here, and alive.

"Also we don't have any currency here." And more to the point, there's a dragon, which Bruce isn't looking away from. He's just trying to will his heart down out of his throat, before he goes green and makes this any worse. The lizard is losing patience, looking between the two of them with beady eyes, a huffing breath. "I don't know what you want to do, but-"

One of them is going to have to think of something.

"Nah, I'm sure I've seen you before. In Tuscon, maybe? Vegas? Maybe it was in New--"

Unfortunately Bruce won't get a chance to listen to all of the hypothetical locations where Wade may or may not have met him, because at that exact moment, the dragon decides that she's completely run out of patience. With a burst of speed that belies her large size, her head darts forward, snapping at Wade before he has a chance to react.

"WHOA! Geez!" His sword flashes once, twice, carving two bloody streaks into the flesh of the dragon's face as she pulls away, screaming her frustration and anger. She doesn't seem to be all that hurt by that pathetic display of strength-- not that Wade was really banking on his swings doing much damage anyway.

"Calm down, lady-- okay, there you go! I'm looking at you now, all right?! Izzat what you want? Sheesh. Dames, amirite? They get so jealous when they're not the center of attention. Almost like they think the world revolves solely around them, y'know? ...Why do I feel like I'm bleeding?"

Probably, Wade, because you're currently missing an arm.

Bruce is actually opening his mouth to object to that, he honestly is, but that all flies out of his head when he sees the arm go. You don't have a lot of time when it comes to missing limbs, so Bruce lunges at him. The dragon is retreating, beaten back some by the cuts, and Bruce is already in action, moving to try to get Wade to cover, moving to try to get the strap off his first aid kit to use as a tourniquet.

He's expecting continued gushing blood, and he's also expecting Wade to shut up and go into shock at any moment, and may be in for a rude awakening.

"You're good-" he promises, senseless patter as he moves automatically into first aid mode, "okay then, that's not great, but let's see what we can do."
