Intro Log.

[awashmods]

It's raining, it's pouring. The old man is snoring. He bumped his head and went to bed And he couldn't get up in the morning.

ou wake in knee-deep water, cold as ice and stagnant, in a space that is far too echoey and spacious. It feels like a massive cave, but looking up... there's only one small, circular opening that shows grey sky and shines any sort of light. It looks like a long trip upwards, a small cylinder with walls of brick that's just a little too high to reach, even when jumping. Getting out is probably going to be a bit of a task, especially considering the water is more than cold enough to make limbs go numb. The dark makes it impossible to see much further, but the space seems large, all filled with water, but with no other way out, stone walls the only thing for an intrepid explorer to find. Oh, and to make things even better, it's raining today. Water from below (though thankfully only like, knee-deep), and water from above... how fun. But most importantly of all... you're not alone. Welcome to Awash's second intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. New characters have all woken at the bottom of the well in the middle of the town (which seems a lot bigger on the inside, somehow), and it looks like they'll have to put in some work to get out. Thankfully, they have some friends on the outside, this time. Once out, they'll be free to explore the various locations the Town has to offer at will. Just try not to die on any of the far-too-rickety walkways. Please feel free to ask any questions here and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

[It's nice to easily fit right in. Weird, but nice.]

Just one thing. What do we have for food around here? [He has to feed himself but also his dog which is a whole new problem.]

[messianic]

...Well.

[Wellllllll]

You can scavenge for food--it's not like there isn't enough, though it's not very exciting. But... any food without color is going to be gross. You can eat it, but...seriously, it'll be gross.

[Soooo]

Try to stick to foods we've already brought color back to. Fish is usually a safe bet.

[hydrokinetics]

We usually pack for emergencies when we're on quests and stuff but it's never anything gourmet. I can handle a little scavenging. [...but...fish. Hm.]

But uh. Maybe not fish yet. [Fish is fine, but also, it's weird to eat them when you can hear them talking to you :')]

[messianic]

[... Okay. No fish, then--]

Deer...? I think deer had their color restored. [Spideer.

He's trying to think of the doggo!]

[hydrokinetics]

Deer's fine. [There's an agreeing bark. Mrs. O'Leary doesn't have a picky appetite but whatever.] I'll probably rig some traps or have Annabeth help me and we'll make it work.

[messianic]

[Thanks, doggo]

... I'm pretty glad you're here all of a sudden. [QUITE FRANKLY] Not many of us are very good at hunting and catching animals. We've been mostly making do with fish.

We're pretty much raised and trained to fight and kill monsters, so those skills just carry over. We could probably teach anybody who wants to learn, too.
