WEEKEND ZERO: MINGLE
GREETINGS
Unnerving. That may be the best word to describe how the vibes feel as your sight begins to clear and you find yourself on the ground. The air is chilly, and you don't see anything that may represent the sun or the moon for a sense of time. You look around expecting to find some sort of buildings, wildlife, or anything of use, but your immediate line of vision only shows a sprawling monochrome landscape.
Are you feeling adventurous? As you get to your feet, you have the opportunity to wander further and begin assessing the situation. You'll quickly find that the only thing on your person are the clothes on your back. Traveling will eventually lead you to a few areas, though none of them appear very promising either.
Don't stray too far, however. While there are few hints of plant life (nothing nourishing, nothing satisfying), you won't find much else. There's no food or running water; resources seem scarce. The further you go, the more you begin to feel colder and weaker. Your eyes begin to play tricks on you, and everything ahead of you looks unfocused and even more gray than before. An imminent sense of danger hangs above you...you can't quite pinpoint why, but your gut instinct says there's something else out there just lying beyond your reach.
Perhaps you'll have luck another day. For now, it seems as though your only option is to make use of the areas you do have access to and try to settle in. But don't worry, you aren't alone. There's 35 other people just waiting to see what you'll do next.
Welcome to your weekend zero intro to
chroma! While characters have access to the locations available, they do not have access to anything else including their home items. Please note that characters do not know what their primary color or complementary colors are as of yet, and IC profiles are not in-play at this time. Things of note!
► You can find food (cotton candy, stale hot dog buns with no hot dogs, etc) in the carnival, but none of it is filling. It's monochrome, and you're hungry again five minutes later.
► There's water in the mansion but it's kind of grey.
► Seriously, it's cold.
► You arrive in your canon outfit. It is also monochrome, like someone drained the dye out of your clothes.
Stay tuned for more updates throughout the weekend, and happy settling!

[ A concerned voice, the bewinged girl looking on worriedly. ]

[ muffled as he slowly extricates himself upwards, though he looks a mess, he seems? stable? he's talking, at least. he looks the girl over, slowly pushing his glasses onto his face, crookedly at first. ]
Just thought I'd take a moment to... gather my thoughts. [ a brow furrowing... the feathers. is she some kind of celestial or...? ] Are you on your own?
no subject
[ Alas, she cannot heal, she does not have the magic capability for that. She fidgets where she stands, pulling at the ends of her monochrome outfit with her taloned feet shifting. ]
I think.. so. I cannot find Hermes. Or my way back to Elpis. I do not know where here... is. [ her wings droop, but she seems to try and pick up her mood. ] But! There are some nice people here. And I might find Hermes! Some said so.
no subject
I... yes. I do believe so. Don't worry about me.
[ he shifts and slowly starts to rise up, patting himself down again and truly frowning. ah. he probably shouldn't move too much, but. the bench will be here. he shall return to his very nice resting spot later. ]
Seems we'll all have to find some way to get ourselves out of this mess. Strange how they've just plucked us all up they way they have... [ he tilts his head ] Are you a Celestial of some sort? [ the wings???? hello??? ]
