Hello everyone and welcome to Awash’s first intro! The mingle log can be found here, so feel free to jump right in and get playing! In the future, OOC posts like this one will be posted two days before event logs go up, to give everyone time to plot and prepare for events. However, since this is an intro log and this post is mostly just additional information for the very first log in Awash, we're posting this one at the same time. (We also promise we're done inundating you with OOC posts now!)

• All characters will find themselves at the bottom of the well in the middle of the Town, which is somehow a lot bigger on the inside than it first appears. They’ll have to drag themselves out of there before they can do anything else, unfortunately, and the only way out is through the shaft of the well -- it's a solid 30 feet deep or so, though.
  
  
• All characters powers are intact, but there’s not a lot of elbow room either with how many people are shoved into that space, so be careful!
  
  
• The well itself cannot be damaged at this time. It’s weird. It’s almost like there’s some strange sort of magical protection on it, or something. Oh well!
  
  
• Regardless, once characters manage to fight their way out of that well, they’ll find themselves in the direct center of the Town. There is no color whatsoever; all objects are shades of grey. There is nothing stopping them from exploring the Town or the Forest to their heart’s content.
  
  
• Living space can be claimed at will by the characters, though they will be naturally drawn to their color sector. It’s just a very slight inclination, though, and they can very easily claim a different home in a different area if they choose. Every single building in the Town is run-down and decrepit, falling to pieces, though some are in a greater state of disrepair than others. While there's furniture, a lot of it is old, rotted or unusable, so… have fun sleeping on the floor.
  
  
• In each house, there will be laptops waiting for them, though it may or may not be theirs. They will have to wander and poke their noses into houses until they find the one with their login information already plugged in. Creepy! It’s like it was waiting for them. More information on how the network works can be found on the FAQ.
  
  
• Characters will be able to scavenge for food in the Forest and the outskirts of the Town, and thankfully it seems as though some buildings amongst the residential houses are things such as old general stores and the like -- they have some non-perishable food stored away.

The rest is all up to you, though! You’re on your own now--good luck, friends!

Please feel free to ask any questions here, and also feel free to use this post for plotting. For meet-and-greeting, see this post. For a refresher, the locations page and Housing document can be found at those links.

Thank you, and have fun!
