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!

[ He's used to the cold, but now he's like 6u9. My anime old bones are getting chilled. ]
If aught were to warm you, it may be found in the manor past another archway. Would you like an escort? Or mayhap this place interests you?
[ He. Looks to the dark carnival. Uh. ]
no subject
[ Some familiarity! But this is f*cked up cold. Much colder than that. The kind of cold that brings you Depression. ]
It isn't something... I've seen before. [ It's uh... something! but she's still curious? Could explore but she does like the sound of somewhere warm so she nods. ] Will you walk me back?
no subject
It is a new sight for myself as well. The universe yet harbors much and many. It's wondrous.
[ It makes him feel like he and Ishgard are very small in comparison, but he is aware. A smile! ]
Aye, if that is your wish.
[ To the mansion! Which...... Is also cold! ]
no subject
Wondrous? [ And he even smiles. Well, if she was troubled before, she seems to be more at ease. Comforted by his words. His feelings. ]
I am Meteion. And you are? [ He is Tall. Like Hermes. But a little different. His clothes are certainly monochrome too but not as robe-like as the researchers..
but damn, bitch! it cold af! ] A home! [ :O ]
no subject
[ And he keeps smiling until... Yeah. The manor is cold still. He frowns at this, then weakly smiles again when she mentions home. ]
Aye, for now. We can make this home until we return. [ He gestures with a hand. ] Let us approach the hearth.
