Stroma Isle - In Character Community

Has anyone spoken to the creatures appearing in the water? It appears that they're trying to help us, but we won't know for sure until we make contact.

I'm feeling the need to get some sparring practice in. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

ETA: Any of you folk who can heal others magically interested in being available during sparring sessions just in case? It would make our doctors feel better.

My name is Aravis Tarkheena. I am told by a man named Michael this may help me find someone I am looking for. Michael showed me how to use this device. We have no such devices where I am from.

I am looking for a man by the name of Cor Luneson.

Cor, if you are here please answer.

Now that the devil dogs Hounds of Tinadalos have been dealt with, I'd like to get back to working on building an ice house, if my volunteer helpers are still up for it. I know we have a brand new freezer in the kitchen, but...I don't think we should depend on the Powers That Be any more than we must.

I suspect that if we slack off and start taking the feasts or the gifts for granted, they'll stop coming.

A bag of supplies was left with my name this morning. It appears to be items for hygiene and grooming. Does this sort of thing happen often here?

Aye, Dios...

Um, hi? Never received an ominous letter and communication device upon arriving to a universe but, I've always wanted a phone and to see what the big deal was soooooooo, plus?

Can anyone direct me to where I might find this food? I assume the letter means other people from the multiverse, but I've been wrong before. Others doesn't mean ancient inhabitants, does it?

If it does that's cool. We can be friends. Why can't I leave!?!

I GOT IT! I found it! I know how to get rid of the hounds. Everybody find some chalk or something to draw with. Go to corners and draw a curve in front of them. It blocks the corner with roundness. It'll take a while, but eventually the hounds will have less and less access, grow bored and find something else to do.

I know this isn't the ideal situation - far from it - but the views here are incredible!

Is the water toxic? Is that why they warn us to stay out? It looks so fresh.

I have a lot of other questions that can probably wait, all things considered.

this is so different from highland

has anyone seen a young girl name pilika?

she is only 8 years old

I'm used to weird, but this a whole new level of weird. I'm guessing no one has any idea who is behind all of this.

And where do these hounds keep coming from?

I am glad that wishing worked. I awoke to find a bow and arrows I haven't seen in years - but at least now I can better fight these foul creatures.

I tripped fighting off one of those damn dogs and I...think I sprained my wrist.

They could vanish any time now.

My family and I are heading towards the gardens to help defend them from these beasts. Some help would be appreciated and likewise, if you need defending you can come there as well. There seems to be no end to the attackers no matter how many we kill.

[Kaz]
Are you and your friends well? Do you need anything?

[Alyssa]
Are you well? Want to come help in the gardens?

Should we have some sort of check in to make sure everyone is accounted for? I know several of us are staying with friends or family, but what about those living alone?

Quick question. What the fuck are these things that just tried to eat us?

LISSA

Rest..

If anyone needs a quick trip to the infirmary, let me know and I'll come get you. We don't have a whole hospital's supply to work with but we'll do our best to fix you up during this...situation.

Kaz, I guess we're taking a rain check for fixing the boats. Please check in, I'm wor--

[OOC: set after the in progress gdoc with Ben & Padme]

Hello, everyone. My name is Leia. I arrived here yesterday, but I’ve been reconnecting with my parents. We had a lot of time to catch up on.

I’ll be happy to pitch in however I can here.

I should be finishing up repairing my cottage today. I sacrificed the bedroom to get the roofing tiles and floorboards to repair the roof and flooring of the kitchen and living room, and I have a real, working door and shutters now. The fireplace works, too. The gas oven, not so much. I could convert it to use wood (or peat), but I don't see the point since I have the fireplace. It's probably more useful as a source of steel.

I want to thank Steve for helping me with the roof yesterday. And I want to thank Davina for soundproofing the place.

Is anyone up for a group effort at cutting peat and laying it out to dry? Without wood, that's our best source of fuel for cooking or heating.

Who: Lucy and Ed
What: sibling bonding time/foraging
Where: around the island
When: morning of day 8
Warnings: TBD, but should be low
Status: closed

(  So far, only Ed seemed to be acting normally and so Lucy desired time with him to chat )

Name's Vince Leone.

I've been in a lot of life and death situations. I can only assume this is my brain's way of protecting me from the trauma.

Because I really don't know what other explanation there is.

Though I've been here a full week now this is the first time I've said anything publicly or introduced myself to anyone here. So, hello. I'm Castiel, an angel of Heaven, and companion of Dean Winchester, whom I protect fiercely and am extremely loyal to.

Among other things, I can normally heal injuries with a touch, though I've seen this new place may prove that wrong. I can fish and hunt, and I am also knowledgeable about plants and fish and insects, things that humans may need to eat if dire situations arise. I believe I can be useful here to former or non-humans here in many ways as well.

And that out of the way, I would like it to be known that I would prefer that my abilities are more helpful to the others here than wrathful, and I would hate to have to say try it and see, but if any threats against Dean become more than just talk, know that he has a guardian angel watching over him.

So we've been here a week now, and lots of people have arrived and lots of people have left.

It would be nice to know who is here, what your strengths are, and what you'd feel most comfortable doing here.

If you have abilities, you can tell us those, too (although that's entirely voluntary).

For me, I'm John. I'm nineteen years old. I'm immune to fire, I can heal, I can talk to animals, and I can copy other people's abilities. I'm working as a healer here.

[Narnians]

Given the outrage yesterday, I think the need for some form of organization among the residents would be wise before more serious conflicts arise. We certainly don't need a blood feud developing with no avenue of escape.

[Rose Hathaway]

I would be willing to participate in a rotation.

[Peter Pevensie]

Assuming we would prefer the girls not, I'm volunteering. Should any unforeseen side effects occur, you should be aware.

People here need to drink blood to survive?

They can't just eat a well-balanced meal?

Is that what I'm to understand?

'Determined not to be well suited'? By whom?

I've taken it upon myself to start collecting up all the books that I can find in the different houses around the island. I'm putting together a library. If anyone has any books to contribute, it'd be much appreciated. All will be welcome to borrow books from the library.

If anyone is interested in helping me collect some bookshelves, I'd love that, too. I figure I'll put it together in the house where I'm staying. There's plenty of room downstairs, and the place already has two walls covered in shelves.

I'm back! Everyone can relax. I'm sure it was awful without me.

Eighteen-century Scotland was not all that. Did I miss anything?

Now that I know how to use this device, Hello!

I'm Lucy.

This is certainly a new adventure.

If the contact list is to be believed, my family is here?
