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!

[Maketh narrows her eyes.]
As one retaliates against an enemy that harms them, of course. Should we take torture lying down?
no subject
No, I don't mean that. I didn't word it very well, it's really more of a multi-part thing. [foundation, walsh. get it together.] First, I guess I'm still thinking about the part where not all of the gods are necessarily negative emotions. Some of them even seem to be in opposition? Like hope and fear. Do they all act against us?
[he pauses. he should give her a chance to answer, not just bombard her with questions, he knows that.]
If they don't have physical forms, though, how did you even make the attempt?
no subject
[Maketh's opinions about the gods have never been subtle.]
An attempt was made to force them to show themselves by attacking their temples. It was ill-planned and had adverse reactions.
no subject
[she may not be subtle, but it's easy to believe her when he's had so many lessons about learning not to trust people even when they act like they want to help. why should gods be any different?]
So regardless of whether or not they are who they claim to be, they definitely are powerful.
no subject
[Maketh inclines her head slightly.]
They have brought us back from the dead before. It's not a pleasant process, but it is within their capabilities. They have enacted containment measures around the caves so we cannot leave, and often engineer events to generate whatever emotion they require at the time. Yes, they are powerful.

If you are alive, then you can fight. That is the only thing that matters.

Accept your reality or wallow in denial. Quite frankly, I do not care which. If you are clever, then you may be of some use to me. If you are not, then I will do my best to keep you alive nonetheless. That is all there is to know.
no subject
[which he really doesn't care at all but:]
There's more to life than those things though. Like, that's really noble of you but you should get out there and do non-noble things, you know? Get drunk and do something stupid you regret in the morning or sleep with someone you've never met before.

People make a lots of assumptions about other people. Just because they don't voice them doesn't mean they aren't there.

[he should stop there. she's made that real clear. and yet]
It's really not that big of a deal.
no subject
But, no. Standards. She has standards now.
Maketh just rubs her face. Connor is going to be an ongoing annoyance, she can just tell.]
If you are going to ask questions, at least make them intelligent.
no subject
[maketh is a saint for putting up with this]

Clearly you are capable of looking after yourself now. I have patrols to run. Try not to die in the meantime.
no subject
[for both their sakes to be quite honest]
But think about what I said.
