The Welcoming Committee
So far their duties have been to create a "welcome sign" stolen from Planet Vegas (click here for a better detailed image made by Natalie!) to signal to new arrivals they're not alone in this situation, create a welcome letter (see below) that flies to each new arrival via enchanted paper airplane, answering questions on the network for new arrivals, maybe stopping someone who comes in violent or confused, figuring out ways to make things less terrible by creating a bar, putting together a collection of clothing, or safely storing cursed items found on campus.
At least it's something?
Comment on this post if you would like to have your character join The Welcoming Committee.
Dear Friend,We regret to inform you of your new unenviable position of newest abductee to pocket dimension formerly known as Derleth University. Don’t worry about the creepy voice mail, none of us know what that’s about either.
The rest of us have also been trapped here, some of us for months, perhaps even longer by the time you read this enchanted letter. We wish we had better answers. Just know that none of us mean you any harm. Taking out any frustration or aggression on us would likely not go well for you. Instead we invite you to join us in trying to … figure this out? ...get along? ...survive?
If you need more clothing, we do have a modest selection at the Peaslee Theater building. A drink? There’s limited supply at Dexter Hall, the cafeteria. We kindly ask that if you take from what we have, the next world that has clothing, alcohol, or whatever available, you contribute to restocking for the next unfortunate person to show up here. See the enclosed map for the layout of the buildings.
Know that the pocket dimension resets every seven days. If you’ve found yourself in the middle of dangerous or unfortunate circumstances, hold on for a few more days and the situation will change. You’ve likely found yourself inside a white void or an unfamiliar new world. Derleth likes to bounce back between the two.
Reach out on the network if you need help. We’ll do our best to answer any questions.
Sincerely,
The Welcoming Committee
