ARRIVAL

It's peaceful. The only sound is the chirping of birds, and the soothing sounds of the waves against the sand. The sun is warm on your cheek, and the sand is... Well. It's sandy. Pretty uncomfortably gritty, actually. You're lying in the sand, too, so you might want to do something about that. Actually, now that you wake up, you notice that you're pretty dehydrated, a little salty, and possibly still a little damp from the ocean. Also, there's sand everywhere. Ugh. Especially because you're not wearing your usual clothing--no, you're in a bathing suit and a sundress, or a bathing suit and a t-shirt (there's no gender discrimination here, it could be either/or), and that means the sand is getting everywhere. There isn't any indication on how you got here. No grogginess, no injuries -- in fact, those who arrive with injuries might find them healed up completely (of course there are others who won't be so lucky) -- but in one blink and the next, you are here, on the beach. Maybe you're even lying next to a friend. Or a stranger. Probably a stranger. You won't have a lot of time to talk, though. Not before a portly man is suddenly standing there on the beach, staring down at everyone with an unimpressed expression and staying clear of the water. A few feet behind him, you can see someone who looks... exactly the same as him? Weird. His twin(?) seems a bit more cheerful though. "Well, get up already, will ya?" Once everyone is up and standing, the man stands before them and takes an assessing look at each person. There is something very off about him, though he looks human enough -- but his eyes are too white, his skin too dry, and his hair is doesn't shine quite right. He's wearing flip flops and dressed in a grass skirt and shirt with his twin wearing the same but his shirt is in red. After a moment, he gives a short nod and speaks again. "Welcome to the game. I'm the Chief." He thumbs behind him to the other robot who waves. "He's also the Chief but pay attention to me more. I'm not going to explain anything to you right now because I don't care and I'm busy. First, you're going to get to know each other. Then on Sunday -- it's Friday, by the way -- we'll have a meeting in which you will decide two things. One, the name of this village you will live in for the next two months and two, how much of a pain in the ass you're going to be for me. See ya then, folks." And that seems to be... it. The Chief nods and turns to head to a bright, colorful building off to the side of the housing circle. There are a whole bunch of keys chilling in the sand, each with a nametag; have fun digging through the sand to find yours. What a jerk. And with that, you're on your own. Welcome to game start! Characters will find their items in their huts, as well as one single change of clothing, whatever you’d like it to be. The IC rulebooks and profiles will not be available until later.
