WEEK 1 MINGLE

As dawn approaches on Monday, the contestants are greeted to a beautiful, sunny day. It's the first full week of their time in the house, and after the rather troubling introduction on Saturday it's hard to know just what to expect

For the first week, the surrounding area seems quiet and peaceful. The weather stays a nice 75 degrees during the day, and it dips down to the 50s at night. Comfortable, and without any real disturbances from nature or house. It's almost as if the whole weekend was just a bad dream, and maybe the actual game won't be as bad as Dazai made it out to me.

However, those rules and profiles are still hanging in the living room, a constant reminder of the warnings that have been given. What will happen now? There haven't been any deaths at this containment site in years, but will that change with these new rules? Only time will tell.

Perhaps it's a good idea to enjoy this first week. Go swimming, watch a movie, or just hang out together and get to know each other better. You never know, this might be the last time to see some of the contestants.

What kind of soil is actually needed? Clay?

[ That'd fit with the Golems of legend as he's heard of them at least. ]

Yeah, clay's best for golems, especially if I've got to program it from scratch. It's got to be stable enough to withstand the magic and still be able to do shit afterwards.

Is the mobility what makes actual stone a no-go?

[ Not that clay doesn't also grow hard in reality, but its generally more moldable proportions might be more adaptable to magic. Maybe.

George is a man who knows about aliens, not magic, so this is new to him. And pretty interesting. ]

Nah, it's more about putting the magic into it. You can't work enchantment into stone as easy.

Huh. I had no idea there was a physical difference in how materials respond to magic. That's fascinating.

Enchantments are just about manipulating the underlying structure, see? Clay's easier to work with because you can physically incorporate the information, [she grabs a handful of dirt, tightens her grip so it crumbles through her fingers, a physical example] but if you were tryin' to work with stone bricks you'd have to carve the enchantments into 'em. It's just how it takes the energy.

Sand or snow's even easier, but those kinda golems don't last long.

Is this kind of magic a learned or an inherent skill in your world?

[ It sounds an awful lot like science only shinier. ]

It's both. If you don't have the talent you can't learn it, but a shitton of people who have the talent never get the chance to learn.
