WEEKEND ZERO: OVERFLOW

[saturations]

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 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!

[ Somebody catch that damn sausage!

Estinien finds this feeling uncomfortable but he can handle it. Negative emotions are something he's very familiar with and resilience goes a long way. Only one shade away from grief. ]

Then at least tell me I am not the strange one in feeling this oppressive air. Is there a single place about here that doesn't reek of unpleasantness...

[slashay]

[now im the one who forgot what we were talking about and opened this like CATCH THE WHAT

Sir... Please teach a poor lone sword how to handle emotions like that, wow.]

Nope, that's definitely not you. That's what I meant! That it makes you feel sad. [Patting his own chest...] Here. [Normal things to say.] I'm preeetty sure all of the places are pretty nasty-feeling, though.

[vedrskogul]

[ We just pass this braincell around and forget sausages like clockwork.

May he recommend becoming uncomfortably close roommates with someone with extreme emotional instability issues? It'll teach you a thing or two. And I mean real uncomfortably close. ]

...Where else are you supposed to feel sad?

[ Hello? You alien. ]

[slashay]

[This sounds like an extremely bad idea actually, he will pass go and not collect $200 and not go to jail, thanks. The sausage will also remain lost to the sands of time.

He's not doing so hot with his human cover...]

...Yeah! [YEAH??] I mean, yeah, just - y'know. Pointing it out. [IT'S FINE!!] Anyway! That's pretty much every location scouted, then, huh? What next...

[vedrskogul]

[ Yeah understandable have a nice day. He hated that experience too.

Anyway Estinien just has this Look like... okay, weirdo. ]

...

[ Yeah, what now. ]

Leave this place, first and foremost, lest you actually enjoy this wretched feeling.

[ He has no idea what to do beyond that, but practicality comes first. C'mon swordboy, back through the arch into central. They've achieved nothing!!! ]

[slashay]

[HE'S NORMAL. Perhaps more normal than this guy's very close roommate, at least. He also shakes his head very vehemently at the suggestion, flapping a hand.]

Nope, nope, I've had more than enough! Scouting complete.

[BACK THROUGH THE ARCH INTO CENTRAL!! just in time for new pcs to abound on monday wrow]

[vedrskogul]

[ Nobody can be weirder than my extremely close roommate. You're canon-blind right. Yeah this'll be funny.

Maybe they'll have better luck on Monday!!! Take a nap instead, Kashuu. ]
