WEEK ONE

WEEK ONE
29 Vacationers



As much as this vacation was unplanned, hopefully you've found some time to enjoy yourself this weekend as you've settled in. The idyllic beach, all inclusive food, drink, and shopping might be almost enough to distract you from that pesky talk of sacrifice. Vacations really are about letting your worries pass you by. Hopefully you've found the time to set up your U-PINION too, because if you haven't, it's been chirping incessantly since the date turned to Monday. And come Monday at noon, everyone's device will let out a pleasant jingle, heralding several announcements across the screen:

Happy Monday! We've hope you've been enjoying your time at Sungem's Peak. The Mermer (intranet) is now fully operational. Chat with your friends and get recommendations for how to best enjoy your vacation, by:

We're also happy to announce our reward system is live! Complete tasks to receive special items to improve your stay!!! Contact your administrators for any questions or concerns. We hope you have a wonderful week!

The artificial peppiness of the announcement just oozes out from the U-PINION, and soon thereafter everyone will be accosted by a friendly robot that forces a physical copy of the rules into their hands anyway. Just in case. They'll also present a copy of the tasks this week as well, for any interested parties.

!
TASKS:

Be Nice
Now that you're acquainted, tell another person one thing you like about them, and why.
(REWARD: RARE!)

Let's Play!
Play a game with someone else. Any type of game: board games, card games, or even a party game! (Reward: Common )

Summer Spooks
Tell a two-sentence horror story in person, or on the network.
(Reward: Common)
((OOC: Welcome to Week 1! This is a peace week, so they'll be no case this weekend. However, we have something for you to chew on Saturday, time to be announced later in discord.

We'll also be playing around with the network and seeing what works as far as formatting goes, so thanks for bearing with us! Also please note, that the poll questions are anon, but any answers won't be. ))

[Temenos isn't nearly as in tune with nature- that's more Ochette's deal. But if he's learned anything from his travels with the Hunter...]

This isn't good. We ought to begin preparations for a confrontation.

[His staff is tightly gripped in his hand.]

I intend to search for the source in the meantime.

[Not that he'll find much for now...]

I'll come with you.

[Even without his sword, he's more than equipped for any sort of potential confrontation. Probably better so than a bunch of the other people here, honestly.]

Many thanks, Shuda.

[Having a full party is always helpful! Or even a partial one.]

[He can tank or DPS, he's versatile!]

Can you feel anything in particular as far as where it might be coming from?

I'm afraid that's not my forte. However, it's possible that whatever oppressive feeling we all seem to be getting may grow stronger near the source.

[Nod.]

Makes sense. Power does tend to work that way...

[personal profile] dupiety 2023-05-19 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
That it does. And unfortunately for us, our dear captors have far too much of it.
dancing_flames: (Le sigh)

[personal profile] dancing_flames 2023-05-19 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Tell me about it.
passetemps: (just flip that rock over)
