[WORLD ONE | OCTOBER INTRO LOG]

[spellbindmods]

Who: The new coven members and old blood
Where: In and around the hub island
When: Day 92
Open/Closed: Open to All

All characters are told briefly what their powers are by Genette -- no extemporaneous details. For instance, if your character has the ability to detect lies, they'll be told as such -- no warning about limitations, repercussions or the like. They'll also be given a variant of this letter so they aren't totally ignorant of the situation -- though of course adapt this letter to the current setting and surroundings of the game.

This setting may be familiar to you -- maybe you caught a glimpse of it when you first visited. Maybe this is your first time experiencing this weird world and the panic is setting in. If you're totally lost, a tall human woman with a long scroll of paper will stop by to give you the run down. She'll also give you a letter, which may give you more questions than answers since the information is a wee out of date. (Maybe someone else can fill in some gaps for you). What is at first painfully obvious is that you're ill-equipped. Any magic or powers you had previously are suddenly replaced with an empty hole in your being. That's not all that's gone, but perhaps that's what's most pressing. Another thing you may notice is that there are others just like you, wandering around and just as confused. If you feel so inclined, you may want to ask around and see if anyone else knows what's up. A ▢ If one of your characters isn't looking to introduce themselves to others, someone's willing to do it for them. Genette is trying to make sure all newbies are accounted for and have a buddy, so she's grabbing them when she finds them and tossing them at the first coven member she sees. "Hi, so-and-so, this is so-and-so! They're new, so show them the ropes -- be friends, okay?" You get the gist. Your character may be paired up with another newbie, a seasoned character or both! Five times, even! Timelines in RPing are weird! B ▢ Let's say that instead of milling about and doing nothing entirely productive, your character has decided to try and venture off to find a way off this huge floating rock. That's nice -- but be warned that the forest is filled with interesting things. For instance, they've happened to find a hollowed out tree that happens to be where a hoard of land crabs are living. They move fast -- run quick! C ▢ Other characters may want to establish shelter before they do anything else -- and that's their right! The problem is that if your character wants to be well-supplied, they're going to have to do things for themselves. There's something of an assembly line set up, but not a lot has been done in way of making things workable. Genette wanted all new coven members to have a little food parcel to take to their hut, but time constraints, you know? If you want any food for now -- or for later -- you may want to cook some of this (poisonous) eel, salt some boar jerky or cut into one of these rabbits. You've also got some berries to eat in the meantime, if you want something simple!

By the time afternoon sets in, everyone should be a little more adjusted -- or, they should at least be a little more aware of the situation. From there, things still need to be done and exploring is always an option! D ▢ For those characters who want to stick around the base camp, there's something worthwhile in discovering the buildings around the area. One such building is the mansion, which contains extra supplies and a renovated kitchen. The kitchen is now functional with electricity and running water, with a few raw ingredients for making whatever your character would like. It's minimal, but also not totally useless. E ▢ If you mill about too long, you'll be put to work. Run into Genette and you'll be sent to pick western part of the island to look for strawberries, wheat and deer (good luck hunting if your character doesn't have the capabilities, but maybe someone else can help?). Run into Genette and she'll offer your character an ax to chop wood with (is this a wise idea? probably not), or a request to go fishing in either a stream or the ocean attached to the island on the eastern side. Or your character can do both if they so choose...? F ▢ With all of these new people milling about, telepathy is on the fritz again. At least, it certainly is for those who are new! Your character may not realize their broadcasting frustrations to the network, or maybe a stupid secret. Their mental filter is certainly broken, but that's at least a great conversation starter. Night finally falls on the exhausting day, and it's time to rest. Thankfully the island is beautiful at night, especially the sky. The night is filled with space worms, relaxing mist and wondrous sights in the stars. G ▢ Adding to the excitement of the beautiful night, Genette has set up something of a...talent show? In an effort to get new coven members acclimated with their magic, she's asked them all to use their magic in some way -- it may take a volunteer, or maybe they can show it off all on their own. In any case, show me what you got. H ▢ Of course, some characters aren't going to be up for this fancy display and will want to go about their own business. There are plenty of places to sit and stew on this island, both private and in plain sight. The stars are spectacularly bright, and the higher up your character gets the less it seems like night time. If they're lucky, they may catch sight of a shooting star, though it's of course much larger than usual. They're directly in space, after all! I ▢ Wildcard! How will your character interact with this new and unusual world?

Comments

Belarus | Hetalia

[belabridezilla]

[Belarus has no interest in stupid letters or magical powers or introductions with any of the idiots here who seemed to have gotten themselves kidnapped. Never mind that she is also one of those idiots apparently. How typical of herself! Ending up in a hopeless situation she has no ability to rectify!

Belarus's hands clench and unclench repeatedly at her sides, the letter crunching in her grip as she takes all of this in. There's an abrupt sense of loss as if something important was cut out of her chest. Equally disturbing is the state of dress she arrived in. Her most cherished material possession, the dress her brother had given her, was gone from her body and she was just standing around in a bra and some petticoats.]

C.

[Belarus needs something to do. She needs something to keep her from spacing out and thinking about this for hours. She'll just get upset-- not that she wasn't already upset about this or anything but! Belarus sets off as soon as she is able. There's food here, although none of it is potatoes, but that gives her a little comfort. As long as there's something to eat it's fine... it's fine.

Belarus grabs a knife and starts cutting up rabbits. Her precision with a knife and the cold face she has slicing them into cookable parts is probably not going to make her seem very approachable.]

F.

FUCK. FUCKING FUCK SHIT EATING BITCH FUCK YOU FU--

[Not that any of that wasn't something Belarus wouldn't openly broadcast with her mouth anyway, but no one probably wants to listen to a stream of colorful cursing loudly playing in their heads. Not that she realizes she's doing it anyways.

In her more calm moments, she wouldn't want anyone in her head listening to the more sensitive thoughts she's been trying to suppress all day.]

--I wonder if I'll ever get to be home again? Are they alright without me-- probably but. Hm.

I.

[Wild card.

Feel free to come up with your own prompt or plurk me at k3llyb3an!!]

F

[lunala]

[Oh jeez, that's loud. That's loud and even worse, as far as bad words, than Brie.] Um, just so you know, you're thinking that stuff to everyone!

[belabridezilla]

[Belarus whips around with the knife she picked up from slicing up rabbits , her eyes darting back and forth. No one around her seems to be addressing her but she most definitely heard someone's voice just now.]

...Who said that?

[lunala]

I'm Moon. I'm talking to you with telepathy. Did you just show up?

[belabridezilla]

Moon.

[Belarus' face scrunches up, looking up-- the moon?]

What the fuck?

[lunala]

[Unfortunately, Moon isn't nearby, so she can't see Belarus look up and realize there's any confusion in regards to her name.] Everyone who Qri brings here ends up able to use telepathy. When you're getting used to it, it's pretty easy to accidentally think out loud!

[belabridezilla]

GET OUT.

[lunala]

[Ow.] You're shouting this to everyone, I can't!

[belabridezilla]

[Belarus looks incredibly frustrated, stabbing her rabbit knife into the table--]

The moon is an unhelpful fucking asshole no wonder we don't talk at home-- what fucking bullshit is this? How do I stop it?!

EVERY ONE!! FUCK OFF AND GET OUT!!

[Help.]

[lunala]

[What is going on.] You get used to it! Eventually it won't happen, you just have to practice! And I'm not the moon, that's just my name!

1/2

[belabridezilla]

--CK. FUCKING FUCK SHIT EATING BITCH FUCK YOU FU--

2/2

[belabridezilla]

[Belarus pries her knife out of the table, trying to calm down and clear her head. If there's nothing in it--then there's nothing for anyone to hear!

She tries to think back to home and spending hours watching white noise on television--]

KRSSSSH... KRRRRSSSSH. I want to go home.

[lunala]

M-Maybe if you try thinking really quietly...?

[belabridezilla]

GOD DAMN IT.

[Belarus grabs at her hair, tugging at it angrily. This is going to absolutely drive her crazy at this rate.]

fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you

[lunala]

[Well, at least it's not as mentally ear-splitting now... Moon gives it a few moments before she speaks up again.] Maybe if you do something that calms you down? [Swearing over and over doesn't make this woman seem very calm right now, at least.]

[belabridezilla]

[She is super calm!!

Hobbies... a calming hobby. Walking with brother. Talking to brother. Being with brother-- this is just making her depressed.

She doesn't have her diary so... that only leaves.]

...

Rubber bands last longer when refrigerated.

[Thinking about useless trivia.]

[lunala]

Really? [Sorry, she can still hear you.]

f

[meritedly]

[ ... f for fuck, apparently. have a very annoyed, male voice responding over the telepathic network. ]

Please refrain from bombarding this system with useless dribble.

[belabridezilla]

[It's not like she wants to have her entire consciousness on display for people to listen to-- or listen to anyone else's!!]

[After a long moment of nothing, Belarus replies much more calmly to the voice.] Get fucked.

[She's trying her best??]

[meritedly]

[ what in the actual fuck. did that just happen? yes it did. ]

... Tch. Do you really believe that tactic will work?

[ that's her trying? yikes, what's her not trying. ]
