Survival is the exception "living is an act of courage."
THROUGH THE INGRESSThe Ingress has pulled you in. Your body experiences several sensations at once: being pushed forward as if a hand is resting on your back, momentary and startling blindness, a gentle ringing in your head. You have difficulty discerning whether it is hot or cold, but where you have been prodded is noticeably warmer than the rest of you. Some may suffer from dizziness while others are perfectly fine. Once equilibrium has been reestablished, you will notice you are standing on a rocky planet. Former crew of the Moira are there to greet you, and it’s a grim message they have to share. The Moira has crashed and is beyond repair, but there’s good news... the destination the crew has been heading towards for over a year? You’re standing on it. But before you get into exploration and survival, it’s best to deal with the effects of coming through a broken Ingress. ☄ slip and tripfind your footing fastComing through the Ingress has left your character with one of three changes - an age slip, a form of body horror, or an extreme weakness. The first, the age slip, will mean that the character is either older or younger and this change can’t be rectified during their first month in game. The second, body horror, comes in the form of an alteration to the character's body due to whatever they were carrying at the time they came through. If they were wearing a watch, it’s now fused to their wrist, clothes are permanent, knifes replace fingers, and many other alterations (anything goes) and it lasts the first month as well. The third, extreme weakness, can be a mental or physical decrease - weaker arms, legs, or the weaker ability to talk or do math.

☄ introductions aren’t awkwardas long as you don’t shake their hand too longA new planet. Physical and mental changes. Talk of a ship that crashed and a Hub that is home to the ‘creators’ of a technology you’ve never heard of. A lot is happening and the best way to sort through it is by getting to know the Moira’s crew. They’ll help you settle in and get you any care you might need, all the while informing you that the group is on its way to the center of the hub. Something that might seem mundane is an absolute necessity for survival. Ask a seasoned space traveling veteran for answers and guidance.

☄ dealer's choicejust make the right oneCharacters have the option of coming through an Ingress that is any possible location on this planet. It can be inside a cave, at the top of a rock formation, etc. This means you can have your character have to climb or slide down, have them yelling for help, and have other characters see them and come to their aid. Your character's arrival is completely up to you, and since this is a unique situation that hasn't happened before, go nuts with it!

Winston l Overwatch
[The sensations had been disorienting and confusion and part of Winston vaguely wondered if this was even a small taste of the confusion Lena goes through when trying to recall where in time she is at any moment. The theoretical thought is shoved out of his mind as he slowly opens his eyes and finds everything much larger then it likely should be.
Because instead of a fully grown gorilla in armor there's now a small baby gorilla. This could be problematic if it's not someone's weird idea of eternal youth, well even if it is he didn't sign a release form for this.]
Cellular reversal of aging? But to do so while keeping the mind intact and at the age prior to regression...the ramifications are fascinating.
[At least he's not panicking and more interested in the how okay.]
[So he was tiny again, that wasn't going to stop him loping off to gain his answers and discuss science with anyone in regards to this planet.]
Excuse me, If I could have a moment of your time. I would just like some answers in regards to our current situation.
((Hit me. Also will match the format you prefer))

SLAMS INTO THIS WITH THE FURY OF 100 SUNS
[unfortunately, lúcio had missed the part where winston was talking to himself and just saw an adorable little baby gorilla wandering around.
he skates over, crouching.]
You want a lift? [he reaches out to see if he can scritch the fuzz.] There's a lot of big guys around! You're so tiny!
no subject
A moment you can have but I doubt I can give you much.
[Though with vines grown in his arms thanks to how things seemed to be working, he wasn't exactly looking too amazing either.]
My answers happen to be in short supply, replaced by questions too.
intros are awkward
[She kneels down to him with goo goo eyes and her arms out for him. To come to her...]
You talk? Wow!
[It's almost like that old Nintendo game...]
Intros
It shouldn't be a surprise that it talks— there are bloody robots as big as the ship that talk... ]
Uh... hi there? [ Jesus, she knows she'd had her head smashed into a metal wall, but this is... ] Sorry, you were talking to me right?
