Survival is the exception "living is an act of courage." THROUGH THE INGRESS The 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 trip find your footing fast Coming 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 awkward as long as you don’t shake their hand too long A 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. ooc: this prompt can be game canon. ☄ dealer's choice just make the right one Characters 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! ooc: this prompt can be game canon.

That sounds like a win to me.

[She grins as she fiddles with the watch that is currently fused to her wrist. How odd, but honestly it's not like she ever took it off anyways.]

I'm a fighter in my world. My mech is here, I have some engineering for my baby, but I have no healing skills.

[notdelivery]

[He rubs his chin a little. No, he has nothing to say about her being a fighter. After all, she looks older than Giorno himself and he's done plenty of fighting in his day.

He's more wondering about a mech.]

What's a mech? Wait...instead of a description, knowing its capabilities would be more important.

[play2win]

It's equip with two short range fusion canons that fire 3 rounds and require zero reload. It has limited flying capabilities and can also shield on coming ballistics for a limited time.

[She says this with a smile and a wink.]

It's capable of anything in the right hands.

[notdelivery]

[More blinking. Though it's not too fantastical sounding, considering their current situation. Though he could only imagine fusion cannons...though his mind was on something more Star Wars in size.]

I won't doubt your word on that. Seeing that it isn't with you, it is either too big to lug around all the time or else you have a way to bring it here nearly instantly.

If it happens to be the former, I can assist with that.

And I should apologize for being rude. We've been speaking but I haven't introduced myself. I'm Giorno Giovanna.

[play2win]

[She gives a small giggle at the imagine of herself dragging her mech around.]

Nope! It walks! It can move itself and I can summon it to my location with this. [She points to her watch which has the blinking emblem of a pixel rabbit.] So, no worries there.

[When he introduces herself, she smiles at him and extends her hand out.]

Hana Song, but most know me by D.Va.

[notdelivery]

My pleasure.

[Hand shakes are a go. That at least crosses the boundaries of separate worlds.

Though, when he reaches out, it gets quite obvious that he has vines running through and across the skin on his arms.]

Since you've been upfront, I should do the same in return. You can call it magic or whatever you would prefer but I can turn inanimate objects into living flora and fauna. If there is any reason you might need something of that type, please let me know.

[play2win]

Oh woah! That's pretty neat!

[She wonders exactly what his powers are capable of as she stares at the vines on his skin. Pretty...]

Can I see?

[notdelivery]

Certainly.

[Giorno reaches down to grab a stray pebble off the ground. He shows it off, as if starting a magic trick, and closes his hand around it. Then he opens his hand, revealing a rose complete with its stem and thorns.]

It works much like that.
