Miasmatic. (Plot!)
« on: May 13, 2014, 04:58:54 pm »

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Drifting through the void, quiet and serene. You rarely think, your slumber undisturbed. You know not how long you have been here. Floating without thought. Quiet and calm, peaceful and thoughtless.

Something tugs on your mind. A light tug but a tug all the same. You haven't felt anything for aeons, you're curious and slightly worried.

The tug gets stronger, the void takes on colors. Red. Purple. Green. Flashing lights and colors. The tug becomes a yank. You cannot get free. Purple lightning emanates from a hole in the void. You know your slumber has ended.

Closer and closer you are pulled. Faster and faster the void spins around you. The lightning intensifies, building in power. You slip over the edge. Falling down the hole.

Your mind is on fire. You have no vessel but your soul.

Suddenly a lurching sensation and all thoughts cease.

~

You can't remember what just happened. You're sure it was important.

You open your eyes. All is black. The air is stuffy and slightly musty. You are laying down on something hard and not particularly comfortable, you feel a weight on your chest. You are extremely hungry and thirsty, you don't think you have eaten or had a drink for a while.

You aren't quite sure what to do right now.

Feel around yourself, if possible.

You attempt to sit up to feel around, you smack your head on something solid and probably wooden. Ow, that sorta hurt. You clutch your possibly bruised head with your hands and lay back down.

After a minute, the pain dies down and you feel around, making sure not to smack your head again. You appear to be in a small wooden box, about six by three by two feet. There is some sort of leather bound object sitting on your chest.

((This is why I said "feel", not "sit up"  >:( And I knew it.))

Feel the object. Is it a book?

You try to figure out what the object on your chest is, thinking it may be a book. It does appear to be a book but it would be a bit hard to read it or open it in these small quarters.

Feel yourself. What do we feel like? Can we tell if we have a gender?

You begin feeling yourself, starting with the lower parts of your body you're pretty sure you are human.. Wait, no, you have a tail, it's fairly fluffy so that's nice and you are fairly sure you are (Insert Gender Here.). You then begin checking the upper areas, still overall humanish, only one set of nipples, no random protrusions of bone, you apparently have some sort of fluffy pointy ears though. You're also fairly sure your hair is longish. Maybe a little bit past your shoulders.

((What gender? And no the MC is not a trap unless it is voted that way, the obligatory trap is later on in the storyline regardless of the gender shade chosen for the MC.))

We're a lady, obviously. Although a bit underdeveloped in certain areas.

Push against what's above us.

You do a quick check again, having somehow forgotten what gender you were within ten seconds of checking. You are definitely female, although you could be a little bit more.. developed in some areas.

You push against the thing above you and the it pops upwards and slides out of the way as you push it, it clatters to the floor to the left.

Everything is still completely dark. You can't hear anything except the echo of the lid hitting the floor.

You shout into the darkness. HELLO? You wait for a minute... The only thing you can hear is the echo of your voice now.

You don't believe you are wearing clothes.. Maybe some are laying around? ..Hopefully? You grab the book and step out of the box you were in.. You fall several more feet then expected and land on your butt. Owww... What kind of idiot puts a person in a box in pitch black darkness and then puts the box on something several feet off the ground?!

Get up. Slowly walk forwards, one arm in front of you and down a bit, and try to find a wall.

You stand up and attempt to find a wall, after about three steps, you slip on some object and fall on your butt again. Ow!

Feel around on the ground for a torch or something you can use as a light source.

Grab the slippery thing and figure out what it is.
