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!

[ thank you he will be here all week and for the rest of the forseeable future]

i almost got killed by a dragon
more than once
had to be saved like a damsel in distress
more than once
and also suddenly woke up in a place that isn't my home and weird shit like that happens???

so survey says yes
it's a bad day

[robobees]

( might want to start charging for these performances.

you could, perhaps, make some decent money.

if money existed in this place, you know. )

the dragons are simple enough to stay away from, i think.
i've been able to do as much, myself.
but there's nothing wrong with needing saving.
it doesn't necessarily make you a damsel in distress.
unless.
were you wearing a dress at the time?

( HENRY WOULD YOU PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY. )

[iustitiae]

that i definitely don't make a habit of

[i mean at least they're both...not taking this completely seriously. points for effort, maybe?]

but i think its way easier to avoid the dragons if you didn't just wake up here in the middle of this mess
the rest of you have a leg up on the situation
knowing things
not being confronted with all of this all at once

[robobees]

( this one rarely openly takes things seriously.

unless he's making a show of taking something seriously.

then all bets are off.

are you confused yet? )

i've only been here a few months, myself.
still getting used to it, if i'm honest.
do you know anyone here?
anyone joining you from wherever you're from?

( because at least he'd had that going for him ... )

[iustitiae]

nah
and to be completely honest
i'd rather there wasn't anyone from home

[because this is just what the keating 5 would need in their lives im sure]

[robobees]

( well. maybe??

sometimes the murdercave is better than where you've come from.

not that he would know anything about that. )

while i can understand the sentiment.
it means you're alone.
and no one benefits from being alone.

( henry ... this is not how you go about making friends. your mother taught you better than that. )

forgive me, i've completely skipped over introductions.
my name is henry cheng.
i'd say welcome, but ...
well.
it seems a bit redundant at this point.

[iustitiae]

[ what do you mean that reminding someone of how utterly messed up their situation is isn't ...making friends... incredible

but henry is right theyve only just met and thats a bad time to be going on with a woe is me story about his friends so, instead: ]

alone for now i guess
all the better to make new friends with strangers on the internet, right?

(not to mention the ones who seem really adamant that i dont get myself killed
there is some benefit there)

i'm connor
and look,
now i know one more person than i did a few moments ago

[robobees]

( come on, connor. buck up. on one likes a woe-is-me story - even though he would have listened, or, read, rather - but it would seem this is moving in the right direction, which is more than he can say for a lot of things around here.

he's smiling, but of course you can't see it. )

at least until you start wondering if some of the people you've met have ever been caught by chris hansen and hidden cameras.

( HENRY THAT'S NOT FUNNY.

okay it kind of is.

maybe a little. )

brilliant.
i imagine you've gotten a rundown of the place by now, but if there's any assistance i can provide, i'd be more than happy to provide.
i've only been here a few months.

[iustitiae]

thanks
i'm kind of out of questions right now
but i'm sure i'll take you up on that eventually
