day one

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day one 41 players remaining. There are no clocks in your dorm room to help you mark the passing of time, but at a certain point, in the early hours of the morning, a cheerful chime tune plays over the loudspeaker. Whether you're awake or asleep, the door to your dorm room is now unlocked. You'll have about a forty five minutes, in which you can get ready or grab some breakfast, before the door that allows you into the park unlocks. By this time, you may or may not have noticed that one of your number is missing. The chimes play again, to announce that the park is open, and the rides and music begin to come back to life as a voice plays over the loudspeaker. "Looks like it's time to get started after all! To all our guests, have a magical morning! Dream big and have fun, but don't forget to look for the body! We'll see you in the afternoon at the Hall of Mirrors when it's time to vote, okay?" You will have until 4 PM to explore the park and talk amongst yourselves. Somewhere in the park, you'll find the body of Malik Ishtar. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on Sept 24. Though a special comment for discussion will go up shortly before voting, you are encouraged to discuss who to vote for throughout the day. Voting

[royalizing]

Yes, between the three of us, the prize machine will be empty in no time!

[ As for her second question... ] Hm... I don't think there is a coliseum here, Edea. If there was, they would stand no chance against our combined strength!

[edealistical]

[Oh good someone who understands what she's talking about.]

That's too bad... I'm not sure how well my skills translate into games, but I'll do what I can, nonetheless!

...Er.

Hm.

[Edea will wander over to one of those water gun type games. A slight pause.]

This is...

[royalizing]

It looks like a gun of some kind.

[ She look from the gun and then at the game. Gears turning... ] Perhaps we're meant to shoot them at the target. Though it doesn't seem like much of a challenge...

[edealistical]

[guns....]

Of course.

[Edea can use broadswords, longswords, scimitars, claymores, shortswords, spears, lances, halberds, glaives, tridents, axes, rods, staves, maces, knives, daggers, bows, katanas, and iron knuckles.

She has never touched a gun in her life.]

Let's see, so --

[She proceeds to squirt herself in the face.]

[royalizing]

[ oh my god Edea

both for the long list of skills and for squirting herself in the face ]

My... Are you all right? Perhaps it is more difficult than I assumed.

[edealistical]

[After spluttering for a few moments, Edea will wipe herself off and try to pretend nothing happened.]

I was testing its force!

[smooth]

It's. Definitely adequate.

[royalizing]

I see. [ Looks like.. she may have bought it??

Natalia sits herself down on the seat next to Edea and grabs one of the guns for herself. She's been curious about them since she had to fight someone who used them... Though she didn't know they squirted water??

She'll squirt some at the target and then- ]

Oh! It moved!

[edealistical]

Oh!

[Edea will respond in kind before taking up her own gun and holding it somewhat less idiotically.]

Then the point must be to follow it!

[Take that, target! Edea will squirt at the same one Natalia is aiming for. Double power!]

[royalizing]

[ Tag team!! Natalia continues to squirt her gun and watch it move...

...

Is this really it ]

I thought it might be a bit more exciting...

[edealistical]

Hm.

It's awfully slow, isn't it?

[Maybe they're at Level 1 or something...]

Well, it doesn't matter, as long as we get the promised prize. The important thing is to find the clue.

[...........though this could take a few years.]

[royalizing]

[ it's been 84 years and they're still squirting this stupid watergun ]

Yes. I wonder what the clue will say. [ Is it too much to hope for a list of names probably... ]

[edealistical]

Edea Lee is not a VIP!
Natalia... Kuzu... erm... Natalia is not a VIP!

[Edea will aggressively squirt to punctuate her exclamations.]

That will at least narrow it down to 40, right?

[royalizing]

[ She would correct her but Edea's words get a giggle out of her. ]

Yes! No matter how long it takes, we'll earn enough prizes to find them all.

[ It looks like the target is finally inching near the top-?! Will something exciting happen now who knows ]

[edealistical]

Yes...!

[And finally it gets there! For now, what they get for their effort is...]

1 ticket?

I guess 'generosity' is another virtue our hosts lack. In addition to, you know, not murdering people.

[royalizing]

I would be shocked if they had any virtues at all. [ Extremely shocked. ]

I suppose if it was to be this easy, they wouldn't have told us.

[edealistical]

...

Well... It looks like we have a lot more targets to shoot, then, doesn't it?

[She'll try to keep a cheerful face about this!]

C'mon! I'll race you to the top!
