MOCK ROUND INTRO LOG



Welcome to Rokkenjima. This island may just be a copy in the middle of reformation, but the Witch extends her greetings all the same. Please, relax.

This game is just a trial run, but please do not think you can sleep through this. The Witch fully intends to put the system through its paces, so please put up a good fight.

The difficulty level depends on you. Think deeply on your moves during this short play time.





You wake with a start - even if you don't remember falling asleep in the first place - and find yourself standing on the dock of what looks like an island. There's a noise behind you - and if you turn to look, you'll see a plain white boat taking off and leaving you all behind, not stopping for a second if you try to flag them down or scream at them.

It doesn't look like you can swim to shore, either - there's nothing but sea in all directions, and something tells you trying to swim out will end up badly. However, a small dip, if you were so inclined, would be fine. It's not like the weather is bad for it - it feels like it's summer, despite whatever it was when you laid eyes on the envelope.

...Speaking of, Every last one of you have an envelope in your hands, with a gold letter 'L' on it. It's the same letter you were reading before you 'woke' up here, after all. More than that, those of you who had supernatural or magical abilities will feel...strange, as if your abilities are being forcibly blocked. Try as you might, you just can't use them - though all of your physical abilities are intact, of course.

If you decide to head up the path, you'll find Goat....men? waiting for you near the doors to the mansion. Despite their bright red eyes, they merely bow politely and wordlessly bring you into the mansion, showing you your rooms and then stating that they will prepare food for you or anything else you should need whenever you want, in surprisingly deep voices.

As they leave, you can't help but wonder...

What did you just get yourself into?


Mock Round Calendar!
The taken page still requires a little coding, but it should be done by sometime today.
Thank you for your patience!

[Among the dazed and confused gathered at the docks, there stands a monstrous beast. His emerald eyes dart back and forth at the surroundings, turning his canine head towards the humans (and hedgehog) nearby. His draconian tail shifts stiltedly from side to side as the beast... Furrows his brows and looks at the letter in his oversized paw.

Bruno should really know better than to pick up random objects from off the ground, but he just had to go and read it. Now he's suddenly nowhere near Neovia... No, scratch that. He's probably nowhere near Neopia considering he's surrounded by weird beings that look like wingless faeries... Are some of those 'faeries' male???]


What in Neopia...? [He mutters in a similarly deep growl to the goat-men.] What is this place?

[Speaking of goat-men, Bruno's never seen a goat in his life either. Yes, he has seen similar beings, but to him the goat-men resemble weird black nuks and those creatures aren't even sentient. Which is why he can't help but politely stare in bewilderment as one of them shows him to the room at the end of the hall and excuses themself.]

Great. Guess there's no going back now.

[He looks back at the letter and reads it over again, noting the details. Tasks? Injuries? A wish? He thought he learned his lesson by now, but he can't help his curiosity at times...]

[oh thank goodness, another animal person! Even if he is bulky and big and kind of scary... but that's not going to stop Silver.]

I've never seen so many humans in one place...! Not since I visited one of their cities, anyway. I've traveled through time a lot, but I'm thinkin' this isn't my world at all.
beastlybruno: ('Cause you're so unkind)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-09 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Don't be put off by Bruno's appearance. He can't help it... Though he is a bit confused by this weird... Yurble? The other guy vaguely resembles a yurble.]

These beings are called "humans?" I had no idea.
iblistriggered: of some really high cliff (i want to go to the top)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[He's not! Not too much, anyway.]

Uh-huh. They're basically tall, hairless apes. They're not bad at all! ... ah, well, the only human I know personally is pretty bad. Or, well, he was. He's not anymore? [Silver waves his hands] Th-the point is, most humans are pretty chill! Or so I hear! ... Anyway. My name is Silver. What's your name?
beastlybruno: (Come to life)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Bruno raises an eyebrow... Apes? What are apes...???]

Alright, guess I'll take your word for it? I'm Bruno.
iblistriggered: (*doing a tarot card reading* uh oh…)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Nice to meet you, Bruno! [Silver pulls out his envelope from somewhere] You got one of these too, right?
beastlybruno: (When you fall)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Bruno nods.] Yep, and it looks like everyone else has too.
iblistriggered: (*doing a tarot card reading* uh oh…)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
So that's what we all have in common... [he puts the envelope back wherever it was. Hammerspace? Magic pocket?? who knows] I wonder how this witch picked us... did she find people with wishes in their hearts?
beastlybruno: (When love dies in the end)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Just try not to stuff more than 50 items in that inventory.] I don't know, it would be very hard to find a person who isn't wishing for something.

[He's getting a bad case of deja vu here...]
iblistriggered: (vitamin C is spanish for vitamin yes)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Oops! You have too much stuff! You should clear some stuff out.]

Maybe it's a really, really strong wish!
beastlybruno: (So I'll find what lies beneath)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Ugh. That leaves a bad taste in his mouth.]

Maybe we should probably see what this witch wants from us. I'm pretty sure there's a catch.
iblistriggered: (new cryptid; it's me)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Aww. You think? Dang. Why's there always gotta be a catch?
beastlybruno: ('Cause you're so unkind)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
Why wouldn't there be? It sounds too good to be true.
iblistriggered: i wanna be a roomba (i'm so tired of this life)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you know! I was... just hoping Miss Lambdadelta might just be really nice...! [he frowns] That's too much to hope for, isn't it.
beastlybruno: (I will always be here)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-10 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Bruno nods.] Afraid so.
iblistriggered: of some really high cliff (i want to go to the top)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-10 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... we shouldn't make any rash judgements, anyway. Not until we meet her! [a pause] ... Surely she'll come to meet us...?
ladyscarred: (Nobody wishes for it)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-09 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems like the two letters were connected. Pick up one and go to the other...Or it is related to phenomenon.

[It was possibly either. But the cloaked woman was hoping for the former. That could be reversed. The latter... No one had returned from that. And with what was happening next week she couldn't have that.]
beastlybruno: (As I lay underneath)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-09 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Bruno looks up at the young lady...]

Oh, you got one too?
ladyscarred: (Still touch me now)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-09 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's no reaction to him.]

I believe we all did. I saw it on the floor on the way to graveyard. I wonder if they all say the same.
beastlybruno: (Nevermind)

[personal profile] beastlybruno 2019-02-09 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Thankfully.]

Strange. I found mine on the floor too.
ladyscarred: (Nobody wishes for it)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-09 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose it could be worse. One of the children could have found it.
ladyscarred: (Grief is nobody's fault)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-10 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
The field I found the letter in. A lot of children play there.
