WEEKEND ZERO: OVERFLOW

WOW


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 [community profile] 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!

Well. At least someone was apologetic, I suppose. [ he's more impressed by the fact that anyone was alive after to even not be sorry. couldn't happen to him, but different experiences. ] I doubt whoever or whatever is behind this will be particularly sorry.

Probably not. Which means we're actually going to have to fight them.

[Which is going to be a chore, given their current lack of powers.

Also by the time they reach the bridge, Atsushi is going to stop for a moment to breathe.

Sorry, I'm not actually this out of shape I swear.

[ chang geng just thinks about how yifu would tear everything apart, and nods. he was thinking they'd have to fight, regardless, so they'll have to see what's available for them to do so. ]

This place is particularly draining. No need to apologize - if you need to take a moment to catch your breath, please do.

[ and he'll stop, too, looking around and taking it all in to get his bearings. ]

I did notice I was getting tired more quickly, but I thought it was because I can't use my ability here.

[He's not sitting down, but he's leaning against the railing on the bridge now.]

It may be that you're feeling it more strongly because you're used to having it.

[ that's. his general guess. what's it like to come from magical places with magic abilities? ]

Are you feeling alright otherwise?

[It might be that, who's to say]

I don't feel sick or anything if that's what you mean.

[ not me. you hold onto your secrets and we'll find out. ]

It is, yes. Or any injuries, from before you came here. Some people have been showing up with the.

Fortunately I wasn't fighting just before coming here. Our doctor had already patched everyone up from our last fight several days ago, so it was just a normal, unexciting day.
