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!

Fighting all the time isn't much for living.

[Maketh inclines her head slightly.]

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.

[iustitiae]

I'm pretty sure I already flunked the guardsman aptitude test.

[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.

[mismanagement]

[Maketh narrows her eyes. He's no guardsman, that's been made clear, but he is clever. Perhaps too much for his own good.] You presume a great deal while knowing very little about me. Do you truly think that wise?

[iustitiae]

[connor shrugs]

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

[mismanagement]

Wisdom is the better half of discretion. [Maketh cocks an eyebrow.] Especially when the target of your observations is armed and you are not. I will indulge your foolishness if I must, but others will not be so accommodating. I hope that's understood.

[iustitiae]

I'm pretty sure you're not going to shoot me after going to all of the trouble of saving me over a comment like that.

[he should stop there. she's made that real clear. and yet]

It's really not that big of a deal.

[mismanagement]

[She could punch him, Maketh thinks. Just once, in the stomach, and then he'd be quiet. No one would have to know!

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.

[iustitiae]

We did the intelligent question part already.

[maketh is a saint for putting up with this]

[mismanagement]

[She just gives him a look.]

Clearly you are capable of looking after yourself now. I have patrols to run. Try not to die in the meantime.

[iustitiae]

That is probably a great idea.

[for both their sakes to be quite honest]

But think about what I said.

[mismanagement]

I am attempting to forget your foolishness. [There's far too much of it in Hadriel. And he certainly does not have a point! Not at all.] Good day.
