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.
ooc: the choice of change is up to each player and this prompt can be game canon.
☄ 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!

[Well, someone did tell her that time and space were rather pulled apart here. Guess this is one of those things.]
Cosplay is what some people do for fun! They dress up from pop culture, and a tank is the person in the party that can take the most damage and has the highest armor rating.
So if you aren't cosplaying or larping, do you normally wear that?
no subject
[Her armor is really high quality - as is the armor of all the knights of Catarina - so... perhaps she's could be a tank, then? Honestly she'd prefer to avoid taking damage, though, if it's at all possible.]
Well, not always, but I am a knight. Armor is often necessary in my line of work. Before I was... pulled here, I was in a very dangerous place, searching for my father.
no subject
[This is starting to sound like some kind of epic quest.]
no subject
Oh, the fool. He came down with the curse, and took it upon himself to go off on some grand adventure through Lordran. I promised Mother that I'd find him, to deliver a message for her, but I've had quite a bit of trouble finding him.
[A pause.]
Ah, but I've bothered you enough with my complaints - and I haven't even introduce myself! How rude of me, I am Sieglinde of Catarina.
no subject
Sieglinde of Catarine? Lordran? This could only mean one thing. Dark Souls.]
I know you! [Wait....wait.....calm down Hana. You can't just run around and tell people that they are from video games.]
I-I mean I have heard of you! You're a famous knight, right?
[Play it. Cool.]
no subject
Wh- Famous?
[What? Granted, she was a knight, but Catarina has plenty of knights. She hasn't even been one for long, the only notable thing she's really done has been leaving to pursue her father. Is this about that?]
S-surely you must be mistaken! Perhaps you're thinking of my father, Siegmeyer? Or perhaps Siegrun? Many members of my family have joined the knighthood.
no subject
Nope! It was you! I def remember that! It's an honor to meet you Slieglinde. I'm Hana Song, but a lot of people know me as D.Va.
no subject
Oh gods, how in the world have people heard of her?]
Erm, well met, Madame Diva. G-good stories, I hope?
[Honestly she hasn't even had the opportunity to question this strange woman's manner of dress or where she's from. She's too self-conscious to really concern herself with that.]
no subject
[She grins as she nods her head.]
Of course! Only the best!
no subject
[She doesn't understand that it's an abbreviation just yet, of course.]
Um, if you don't mind me asking... what have you heard? I-It's just that I've only been out of training for a few years now, I wasn't aware I had made much of a name for myself in this time.
[Of course, her father would be proud to learn that his daughter had made a name for herself, but she has yet to develop the same boldness of spirit that he exemplifies.]
no subject
[She's caught herself in a corner. What can she say that won't count as a walking spoiler alert?]
You know that you are being all heroic and stuff.
