WEEKEND ZERO: MINGLE

[saturations]

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!

To be fair, I do lean towards blue so it’s not like there’s no colour at all. But maybe I just have a more neutral palette.

[disingenuous]

.... You choose the clothes you wear, I hope.

[chevaliered]

Usually.

[ there's a pause. ]

There were a few circumstances that led to my current outfit being picked for me, but hey. They took my tastes into account. [ like this dumb furry hood on his jacket god i hate him. ]

[disingenuous]

How kind of whoever had to pick out your clothes.

[ Because there are people out there who'd be gremlins about it. ]

[chevaliered]

Yeah, they could've been pretty basic about the whole deal. Nice of them to take style into account.

[ or stuff him in shorts and a t-shirt ]

[disingenuous]

[ Style... is he wearing 2 vests

wait does he HAVE THE BUCKLE ON HIS LEG HERE ]

There's something to be said about taste, and at least you'll be warmer than most of us here.

[chevaliered]

[ and you can't even see the one on his arm. he's from the most jrpg of jrpgs, i don't know what to tell you. they found a way to work mecha in there? ]

I think that was the point. They said the season was pretty cold before they bundled me in my coat.

[disingenuous]

Somewhat fortunate for you for this unfortunate situation, happenstance or not.

[chevaliered]

When everything's going to Gehenna in a handbasket, at least I'll have a jacket to hide in.

[disingenuous]

Gehenna?

[ tell her about your world, crow. ]

[chevaliered]

Lowest of the planes. Pretty much accepted it's reserved for sinners.
