ARISE

[wooliefrand]

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.

Decisions| Introduction | Talk to Sheep | BARNS: DAFFODIL, BLUEBELL, LILY, ROSE, THISTLE, CLOVER]

( do those big dreams involve getting out of the bloody dress pls say yes :( )

Ah... Yes, I can tell already.

[lielovelaugh]

. . . I think though, I should find a change of clothes. People are definitely worrying too much.

[beathollow]

I think it's understandable... there's a little town beyond the field, it may have something that can help. Or maybe in the barns...?

( color-coded... )

[lielovelaugh]

Oh, the barns, that's a great idea.

[beathollow]

Yours is yellow, so...

( she will accompany ai to the yellow barn. no she does not know what's in store for this act of kindness. but hey, hopefully it'll get ai some better clothes. )

[lielovelaugh]

Mm. . . my previous signature color as red, but yellow isn't bad either!

[beathollow]

Signature color...? Oh. I get it. ... You're very bright, so it's not bad.

[lielovelaugh]

A cheerful color, right?

[beathollow]

Mhm. I- someone... I think someone I know liked it?

( she can't remember! oh well! getting this woman back to where she can change is much more important and oh god the moment she approaches the barn her head is splitting.

... not literally, thankfully. )

[lielovelaugh]

You're not sure. . .?

[beathollow]

Ah- um. I- most of my memories are gone... from the ritual that brought us here.

[lielovelaugh]

We'll have to make you some good news ones, stat!

[beathollow]

Oh- I'm looking forward to it.

[lielovelaugh]

Do you have any idea what you like to do?

[beathollow]

I remember music. I would write the lyrics, while one of my friends composed, and the others worked on the music videos. We'd sing together. But I can also do composition and the art and animation myself. I know that much.

[lielovelaugh]

Music! Do you remember any of what you wrote?

[beathollow]

Mm, a little. Some of the songs are clear in my head, and others... bits and pieces. We wanted our magic to reach those at their lowest to say... "you're not alone".
