MOD LOG #3



MOD LOG #3


Arriving in style
Content Warnings: Fighting, death, violence
Themes: Survival, plot

It's early in the day when it happens. The red dust that seems to be everywhere sweeps through the city streets, mixing with the steady patter of rain and making it hard to see and breathe. All red and leaving the taste of copper if inhaled, what could have been an easy day without any trouble quickly becomes anything but. While those in the community are heading for cover or finding ways to continue on through it, the new arrivals begin waking up in different cities all over the world. There won't be anyone to greet them, and leaving the room through the door is their choice - after doing so, they'll immediately step out into the city they were assigned. The streets are empty, houses abandoned, everything crumbling and in ruins. There will be signs noting their location, which they'll catch a glimpse of before a sharp push forward causes darkness to engulf them.

Waking up for the second time, in Reims but not in the Reset Room, they'll come to inside the red dust as it whips through the streets of the community. They won't be alone for long. Another person will be waking up beside them, and after a few moments of disorientation, try to attack. They might have weapons or use their hands, and they will not stop until they've taken a fatal blow. Their blood is dust, and they, along with their weapons, disintegrate after they've died. Can you stop them on your own? Will someone come to your aid?

The Sight of Lightning
Content Warnings: Poison, sex
Themes: Survival, plot

The day after the storm, the same red dust will find its way through Reims and come into contact with every person. Since the dust is everywhere, some might not notice that it's floating through the community and know that something is off. The effects don't begin until night fall, where everyone will feel the desire to seek out companionship of many different kinds. Though it is not always the case, the people that saw each other in color will "want" to be with that person more strongly than they might already, and will be more likely to confess or do something about it. Some might feel an intense need to be around another person, though not necessarily sexually - almost as if they need that person around them to be happy or content. For some, it might be a desire that can only be fulfilled by more than one person.

The effects wear off the next time the person gets wet. This can be a splash of water across the face or fully submerged. Or even drinking something.

backstory: Do not take (You think I'm pretty?)

Lightning

[personal profile] backstory 2018-03-30 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[While they've spoken upon the network, Kija hasn't met him in person yet. Doesn't exactly recognize him as he makes his way down the street. The fighting of the day before has come to a close, but he's careful to watch for anything that may seem out of the ordinary.

He doesn't notice at all that he's really captured the attention of anyone else. At least not until his eyes pass over him and then-- ah-! They go immediately back. He blinks for a moment, opening staring.

This person...

Suddenly his device is out, and his own username will be recognizable.]


You have very orange-ish red hair.

[Lavi had learned his lesson, pretty much, and stayed tucked away indoors with a book he was in the middle of transcribing for Margo. There was no need for Mister No Balance to go out where the wind could toss him around and he'd be more of a hindrance than a help.

The day after? Well, there's plenty of work for someone in construction to be doing.

He pauses and looks at his device, an amused grin crossing his face.]


Makes a great target, or so I've been told.
backstory: (A gay bar you say?)

[personal profile] backstory 2018-04-01 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think so?

[Perhaps that is the case. The princess definitely sticks out, although his companions have pointed out many times that Kija stands out as a result of his dragon claw for a right hand, too.]

Red is a magnificent color I think. It is descended from the gods.
historyrabbit: (grin φ You are right at home)

[personal profile] historyrabbit 2018-04-01 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's certainly eye-catching. [Helps when also trying to rescue him.

...Please don't inflate his head, Kija.]
Ha! I'll have to tell my friends that should they arrive.
backstory: Do not take (Like to think of myself as a love expert)

[personal profile] backstory 2018-04-03 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
It is different from the princess and the color I imagine King Hiryuu possessed, but it is surprising nonetheless.

[His village practically worships red hair.]

You should tell them! Where I come from, red hair is the mark of the Red Dragon god. Hiryuu descended from heaven and took on human form to help guide mankind and live among men. I have seen light shades of orange, but only one with truly red hair back home, and that person is the reincarnation of the King Hiryuu, so it is no surprise.
historyrabbit: (look φ Some turn to dust)

[personal profile] historyrabbit 2018-04-03 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
So red hair still isn't a popular color in other worlds? Used to be in a place where there were a lot of them at one time, we all had various shades of it. Two could've passed for brothers of mine, if I had family.

I don't think I've heard this legend before, you'll have to tell me more about this Hiryuu. If it's something of your culture you're allowed to pass on to strangers.
backstory: Do not take (Would you look at that)

[personal profile] backstory 2018-04-07 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course! Everyone knows the legends of King Hiryuu. Although most of the country believe it to be nothing but a myth anymore, outside of the dragon villages I suppose.

[It's such a shame! His dismay at the ignorance of most is constantly felt.]

Even some of the dragon villages have strayed over time and now abuse what should have been treated sacred. I am quite fortunate to have been raised in a setting with plenty of knowledge and those who treasure the divine instead of fear or shun it.
historyrabbit: (book φ Seen this play out in my dream)

[personal profile] historyrabbit 2018-04-10 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty sure we don't have a dragon village in my world, so it's probably not even something I would've had a chance to hear except in places like this. My job is to collect stories like this. [Kind of.]
