Intro Log: Welcome to the Snave (snake cave)

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for March
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: March 10th-15th
Warnings: Snakes! Snakes! It's a snake!

Good morning, new arrivals! Or, well, it's probably morning. The sun is up, anyway. Okay - not the sun, but that ball of light at the top of the cave that functions as the sun, anyway. Whatever. The point is you've woken to find yourself on the floor of Hadriel's colosseum. You may be wondering where you are and what you're doing here, but what you should be wondering is how fast you need to run to get away from a three-headed snake.

You're not the only one who just woke up. Also to be found in the arena, angry and confused, are Runespoors - large three-headed snakes. Only one of the heads is venomous, but all of them are perfectly willing to take a bite out of you if you get too close - or if you annoy it. If you're lucky, an attacking Runespoor may distract itself via infighting between the three heads, giving you time to run. If not, well, let's just hope you can fight off all three heads at once!

But that's not the only thing you might find. Also scattered around the colosseum floor are what look like tasty snacks. Popsicles, cheese, even toast! Unfortunately, if you get hungry and take a bite, you will quickly discover that each and every one of these is actually soap. So that's great. Maybe the Door thinks everyone needs to shower more? You can also find a few that actually look like soap, and if you're really lucky, you might stumble across the rare and coveted 'pile of baby hands' soap.

With luck, you didn't get eaten by a snake or accidentally eat a piece of soap. Once you find your way out of the colosseum there's plenty of other distractions. Feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

i'm glad, i am a very serious rper as u can see

[ Ah, the wonders of old-timey screen reader technology... at least Jacob is actually using proper spelling. There are worse things in this cave than a dude having fun with emojis!! ]

skull emoji and gun wow
I didn't realize technology had gotten this far
I hear this one is a favorite

[queensberry]

I'd give it a if I knew what it was

Maybe even three

Five??

No but what does salt mean

[devilsavocado]

oh nice you don't know?
I had to have this explained to me too
don't feel too bad

[ Matt, despite being only 30, is not hip with the kids. Connor definitely taught him this. ]

it means you're salty
which is apparently like being pissed or annoyed
so like if the gods annoy you
(like they do most people)
you could say you have a lot of salt about the gods

[queensberry]

so like

if delight weren't delightful

i'd be ???

[what happened to humanity after the 19th century]

[devilsavocado]

yeah pretty much
or if confusion replaces your friends with evil doubles
that'd be a good reason to be

[queensberry]

That is weirdly specific but a valid reason to be angry

I'll bite

is this a regular occurrence here in strange underground city play ground

[devilsavocado]

happened just last month
pretty awful to find out your roommate was dead while you were living with his doppelganger

i wouldn't say it happens regularly but the gods don't really care much about us one way or another

[queensberry]

sounds just like the regular god

you got any sweet tips?

[devilsavocado]

regular God is a lot better about leaving people to do their own thing than bringing in monsters and keeping us locked in a cave

[ Look!! He even used CAPS for that God with a capital G you can wrench the Catholicism from his cold, dead bones! ]

delight has a bar
drinking helps?

[queensberry]

drinking DEFINITELY helps

[A man that will capitalize God and still enable alcoholism... sounds about right for Catholicism.]

find you at a pub mate?

[devilsavocado]

[ That's the true Catholic way. ]

sure thing :)
i'll be the blind guy with the dark glasses
i hear i'm hard to miss

[queensberry]

I guess I would have to be

blind

to miss you

[Sorry Matt.]

[devilsavocado]

[ don't even apologize, this is beautiful...... and made matt laugh irl ]

yes, exactly
