EVENT :: NECRIS | PART II
**Just FYI, uh, the images are from Silent Hill and Dead Space, so click at your discretion? :( I don't want anyone dying on me.**
ATMOSPHERE STATUS: Normal/Unchanged.
It'd have been nice if that first experience was the last. But, perhaps it was just the beginning. Because while your characters won't be thrown into another memory that doesn't belong to them, they will get the sudden rush of re-experiencing the cause of death that the owner's memory fell victim to.
I
The sound is pounding in your head now, each thump of the heart faster than the last, more strained until they become slower, but that pain increases until it blares itself numb. And then the final beat never finishes
-and everything . s t o p s .
pericardial tamponade
II
You feel like you've been submerged, something crushing and compressing against your lungs. It's a drowning sensation, holding you down as you find that you no longer can make them expand in order to . b r e a t h e .
haemopneumothorax
III
You want to throw up, get it all out-all fucking out, but you can't muster the reflex. Your brain is starting to suffocate, now, and in its own delusions you're sent into a spinning daze (spinning . s p i n n i n g . spinning) because that helpless delirium is the only thing left for you before darkness.
asphyxia
IV
It's a small drip . d r i p . dr-no it's a slow and steady stream now, isn't it. -but you have so much more pain to worry about than all this even as you're vaguely aware of your life slipping away.
exsanguination
V
And there is still . N O T H I N G . but that scream.
?
OOC: Characters will see a flash of those creatures right before the sensation described ends and it'll be like nothing happened again (if your characters saw memory I, they'll see creature I and have that sensation, etc. Same numbering for this!). However, not everything will be normal for everyone as something indeed did change.
For characters that died in their worlds before coming to Nuadoria (this includes being in the process of dying), they'll find themselves to be a in a very sorry state, taking on translucent ghostlike forms. They're still quite seeable by all others, and can be talked to, but they can't be touched (people who are affected can touch one another, though). Likewise, "ghosts" can't touch the unaffected. (Ghosts can touch their communicators and various other lightweight objects that are native to Nuadoria, though. Just nothing overly heavy. If it's from their homeworld, though, and it's not, like, part of them (eg: they're wearing it), then it's gonna be the same as trying to touch the unaffected people.)
For characters that died during their stay in Nuadoria, but not in their homeworlds, they'll end up in a some pseudo halfway point, being more solid than the others but less solid than the unaffected. They are touchable by the completely affected and the unaffected (consider them real halfway points).
If you're unsure where you're character is placed, just leave a note here so we can figure it out!
And, as for those little monster visions they just had? Yeah, expect those babies to be randomly appearing around. They're, for now, not aggressive (unless of course, they find one of the NPCs they're looking for) Currently, they'll just wander and act like they can't see any of your characters no matter what state they're in. Trying to attack them, too, will end up getting you nowhere, too, it's like you guys are on completely separate planes.
So, what does this all mean? (That's for part III -- don't worry, people getting turned into ghosts has a bigger part in this and the current monsters won't ignore you for long. They definitely want what you're selling I just didn't have time to put that into part II 8) ).
**Just a note on Belin's monster. I have no idea what that thing actually looks like (lmao) but for all purposes of story here, the manifestation of the monster in Nuadoria is just going to look like that shadowy creature since it's not explicitly stated what she died from, thus the monster also has no real form itself. (LILITH will ICly give you more info on the monsters, btw, to spare me from having to repeat twice!). [And yes, the monsters are personified manifestations of the magisters' cause of death, a la SH: H 8,)]
Questions, comments, etc. Here. I'm half asleep so if you need clarification let me know 8(
