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.

[ corellian reserve. definitely not anything she's heard before, but she gets why it's expensive; stuff like this is hard to come by and the fact that he's willing to share means he's either that generous to newcomers or he's looking for something later down the line. food for thought, even as she considers the smaller jars he points to. ]

how'd you find him?

[ she didn't think the natives would be so kind after that exciting welcome the other day. regardless, she takes up one of the jars, gives it a sniff and takes a sip. the burn is stronger but that's more along the lines of what she's used to; the alcohol on sakaar wasn't exactly quality anyway. ]

are you usually this generous or am i just lucky

[ It was a long day yesterday in his opinion. Poe wasn't even sure if the Man in the Hat would offer hooch to newcomers if they went to his door. ]

The first month I was here the natives threw us a party. It's quiet of course and was eerie, strange since there wasn't any murmurs. I'm not one to really join them. They gave us an item from home that night too. Told us if we went to his house he'll give us what he called hooch. Eventually others who didn't drink theirs offered it to me. Perhaps if you visited him, told him you're a newcomer, maybe he might give you a jar.

[ He shrugs not knowing if it'll work or not. She could at least give it a try and he'll tell her where the man was located. Poe gives a soft smile at her question. ]

When you all arrived everyone was fighting off attackers. A small little victory drinking didn't seem like such a bad idea. I was hoping someone would show up to share a drink. I have no other use for it. I don't really drink for pleasure. The taste is a bit strong too. It's been sitting around, it might as well go to someone who would actually drink more than once.
