ARISE

Who: Everyone
Where: The Pasture
When: Day 1, WAKE UP

[WAKEY WAKEY PEOPLE!! Wow, no matter who you are, you feel like you're starting to wake up from a really bad trip! At least the ambience is really peaceful and the grass you're laying in is dewey and sweet smelling? Really, this doesn't seem all that bad.

...at least it wouldn't, if you weren't also probably surrounded by strangers. Characters will find themselves sitting with 5-6 other people; and all but one of you have color coded collars with bells on them. Try as you might, you can't remove them. One member of your group however, will wake up clutching a tall shepherd's staff, with a team colored bell attached to it. There's an innate feeling they should hold on to it.

Maybe you will immediately try to introduce yourself! But, you might find that difficult, as you can't remember your name. Some may have forgotten even more than that. Whoops! Also curiously, if you had any powers prior to coming here? You can't seem to use them at the moment. All your belongings aside from whatever you were last wearing also seem to be missing.

Well. This is a mess. But hey, maybe.............all the dozens and dozens of miniature sheep just STARING at you might be able to help. In particular, a small pink sheep and black ram waddle up, looking a bit alarmed.

And they start talking.]

THIS, THIS IS SO MANY PEOPLE. THIS IS TOO MANY??? I HECKED UP, I HECKED UP--!

Baahaha! It's fiiiine, we just have toss one, right? Shouldn't be too hard.


[And suddenly, you're all struck with a brief bout of silence as they continue to chatter. Well! Maybe listen very carefully to what they have to say.]

[OOC: All supernatural/magic/special abilities (including sheep powers) are sealed until characters go to their respective barns and activate them! If you try to enter a barn that isn't yours right now, your character will be immediately crippled by a massive migraine. Go to your own barn!

DECISIONS will be due no later than Friday May 5th at 9PM EST. Blossom and Stormy will take the answer from each team's Shepherd HERE. Whatever happens will depend on what team ends up chosen!

Otherwise characters are now loose to do whatever! Ping me in discord or on plurk if characters wander into the mist or if you want an npc encounter in the forest! GO FORTH YOU'RE ALL FREE NOW. You can also use this post as a mingle.

We can probably discuss it in groups.

[ WHICH...Lily goes and does shortly after this so it's fine ]

[eyeing the white collar briefly]

Color-coded groups?

Seems to be. I've met the guy with a staff for my "Team".

What's he like?

Tall.

[immediately]

Riveting description. I'm sure I'll be able to pick him out of a crowd, no problem.

The staff will probably help. You apparently can't be too far from it before it returns.

[blinks, then looks at his own staff with a frown]

[. . .]

Come to think of it. . . I don't really want to let it go.

[he wasn't thinking much about that until this very instant, though]

That probably means something more than we know, but I can't say what right now.

[HM]

I don't know if I like it.

[and yet, he clutches the staff a little more closely to himself]

[personal profile] restage 2023-04-29 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
At least it means you probably won't lose it?

[a small huff]

At least it's good for bopping people when they're being unreasonable.

[personal profile] restage 2023-04-30 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Is that a kind of threat?

[ Not a serious one obviously but like should he be concerned ]
survivaltricks: (pic#13006402)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2023-04-30 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
No.

In that case, I hope whoever it was said against deserves it.

He'll be fine. Trust me.

[ Nods. ]

So, someone you know well?
survivaltricks: (pic#13006295)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2023-04-30 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
. . . yeah. Pretty well, actually. We're lucky enough to be in the same colors, too.
restage: (Malachite)

[personal profile] restage 2023-04-30 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
True. The person I know best is on another color.

[ah]

[a ppppause, before he asks]

How does that make you feel?

[personal profile] restage 2023-05-04 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
I'd rather my little sister were safe at home?

[ They look too alike to lie about that. ]
