(The way I'm running this game makes it easy for people to join in the middle of plot.)
You open your eyes slowly, your vision blurry and head pulse pounding painfully in your temples. Your mouth tastes like cotton dipped in cough syrup and your tongue seems to have swollen to fill your entire mouth. Your arms feel heavy and you’re almost unable to move them, but with some concentration, you eventually lift your hand to your face. The light overhead is almost unbearable and you use her hand to shield your eyes from it, groaning heavily as your roll slowly to one side. With a monumental effort, you manage to get yourself onto all fours, and then push yourself back into a sitting position. You try opening your eyes again and the light blares at you, but isn’t as unbearable as before. You attempt to regulate your breathing as your eyes adjust to the light in the room around you.
After some painful blinking, the ringing in your ears begins to subside and, while it feels like you have had anything to drink in weeks, you manage to unstuck your tongue from the roof of your mouth which makes breathing much easier. The room, you see, is very basic—there isn’t any furniture or windows and the wallpaper is peeling a little, revealing plaster and drywall behind it. On one wall, you see a door which is closed and a small hallway off to one side appears to lead to a bathroom.
In all, it just seems like a very bare, empty apartment. There’s even a small kitchenette and a little hallway. But… where are you? Actually, that’s really even less important than… who are you? And… who are these other people who are lying on the floor, blinking blearily around. What’s going on here?
So, here’s the deal. I’m still experimenting with new ways of RPing that will prevent RPs from dying out before they’re finished. This is how this is going to work. I will NOT be playing any character. I will be playing the plot. You should all interact with each other and I, as the plot, will tell you what happens as a consequence of your actions (if any).
I’m also adding a new element to this RP: You don’t build your own character sheets. Because you don’t know who you are. Get it? I will, of course, take suggestions about what type of character you would like to play, but in general, you have no idea who you’re playing. How will this work, you ask? Well, allow me to tell you.
I have a few thumbnails of faces below. You will choose what your character looks like. And, over the course of the game, I will give little bits of your memory back. Quite possibly including your name. And you get to try to piece together what has happened to you and decide what to do about it.
My rules are super easy but very important
1. Have fun. That’s always number one.
2. There is NO minimum amount line for your posts. Sometimes, you can’t do more than one sentence.
3. When you DO post, however, please check your spelling and grammar.
4. Be kind to your fine posting friends.
Pretty sure that’s it… but I reserve the right to add more.
So, here are the available characters (with their ages, because that’s kind of more obvious). If they get filled up, I can add more.
Please ask for the number next to the photo mini.
1. 17 years old phoenix_tears
2. 16 years old silver.bullet
3. 15 years old Gryffindoll
4. 15 years old samthehpfreak

"I think we're hitting a dead end then," Seth said, cause he too hadn't seen anyone that looked like Em. Now what? They knew who they were but it wasn't enough. How were they going to get out of here, although he was much more interested to know why they were there in the first place before leaving. And of course he wanted to get his memory back.
"We need new leads." He finally said to Aiden. "But why do you think that that particular moment of our life was taped and showed to us today?" He asked to see his opinion. Of course, Seth had his own theory on the matter but wanted to know what Aiden thought about it.

Aiden nodded in agreement. Dead. End. think Aiden think, THINK he thought biting his tongue. At the question about the tapes the first thing that sprang into his mind was zombie rats that want to eat our brains but he didn't say it out loud ... cause that would just be weird "I dunno, maybe some lunatic had this planned for ages and was able to set up cameras and film it, wait no, how would the person know what we were going to say, FISH FROM SPACE. no, I would have noticed it." he said, the last bit was just him thinking aloud. "you got any ideas?" he asked calmly... which was weird

The door that everyone has been assuming is the exit opens with a click of the lock. A man steps inside and closes the door behind him. (If anyone tried the door, it is unopenable again.) The man is thin, pale, and tired-looking. He has longish, black hair that could really use a good wash, and he looks both surprised and delighted to see all of you.
"Oh, brilliant!" he says. "You're all here."

Aiden jumped in surprise as someone entered the room through a door he hadn't even noticed. OH MY GOD! HE'S THE FISH FROM SPACE! HE MUST BE! HE'S GOTTA BE! he thought eyeing this guy. "and that's good... how?" he mumbled under his breath, still looking at this guy. He needed to wash his hair ... NOW!

Jeffery took a deep breath and opened the door of the bathroom, not looking at the various people surrounding him. He walked into the main room without a word, still amazed at his new findings and his healed arm. Suddenly, an exit appeared and a man walked through it. Jeffery mouth dropped into a wide O. It was a while before he could stammer out the words he was sure everyone was thinking. "W-Who are you?"
Charlotte looked at the man oddly. Stalker? "You are so weird," Charlotte muttered under her breath, more to herself than anything. So... the room had a spell on it that made them forget. So... if they were to leave...? Would they get all their memories back? This place is so weird, magic and things appearing and disappearing... people who were murderers... what was wrong?!

"Oh, brilliant!" he says. "You're all here."
The man opens his mouth to answer, then looks annoyed. "I always think it'll come to me," he says, "but it never does."
He smiles at you all and says, "Honestly, I don't remember my name. It's a side effect, you know."
He laughs at this, as if he's made a very funny joke and says, "You do know! Ha!"
Beryl spins around as a new voice - this time a man's - enters the jumble and she spots him instantly. Her eyes scan him quizzically, and as he laughs at them they narrow. So this man new what had happened to them? ....because it also happened to him? She kept quiet, just calculating for the time being.

Laryn stumbeled into the next room, leaning against the wall, who on earth are you? she asked, her voice shaking with fear, as she walked further from the door and towards the weird, mysterious man

Charlotte was quiet. What did this person want from them? Why were they here? All of them had seemingly done something wrong, so why were they here instead of barred in a cell? "Maybe that person did us a favor by placing us here," Charlotte said quietly. She would prefer being here rather than locked up in some dreary cell.

But when Charlotte spoke, Beryl felt better; maybe August was the one most on the outs in their little group. "I have to agree with Charlotte," she said, looking with a smile from the blonde girl back to August. "It seems like we all were leading pretty rough lives before." And by all she was referring to everyone in this room. When it came down to it, it seemed like what the three of them had done was rather tame compared to the others but that didn't matter.
ooc: i figured out where they were a few days ago but Beryl didn't
August sighed.."I know that we did something wrong in the past but what's reason that they have to do something like this?Erased our memories and then give it back to us pieces by pieces..It just sick" he said..He knows that he's being irrational but he rather locked up in a cell than this..

Seth laughed as Aiden said that it was a Fish from Space. It may be true though, who knew. "I guess so, but what intrigues me is why these specific moments?" Seth wondered aloud. His head whipped around when he heard the door open. He saw a man walking through the door that they couldn't open. The door that must lead outside. He was mesmerized in his spot, he couldn't move. All he could do was gawp at the new arrival who was a man, but he looked extremely filthy.
His hair was matted with dirt and it seemed to be sticky, urrgh, Seth thought. Seth looked at him in disgust, he thinks them not knowing their names is funny. Oh really.
"You think its funny?" Seth couldn't help but say. He was tired, his mind was aching from all the weird things that were going on and yet this man comes in and he's laughing. Seth walks forward and tried the door the man came from, he was so sure that it would open for him. So sure that he'd be able to see beyond it and understand what was going on without the help of a man that thought all this was funny. But no, the door doesn't open. Its locked again. He bangs his hands on the door, frustrated. What is going on?
"Can you explain what's going on, please?" He asked the man, feeling defeated and making his way past him again. He stood next to Aiden.

"Quite right, Seth," the man says, laughing again. "Funny, indeed!" He laughs like Seth as just said the funniest thing he has ever heard. Isn't it strange that he knows your name, though...?
He wipes a tear from his eye and straightens himself. "Oh, my. I forgot how splendid it is to be around people. Ooh..." He clears his throat.
"It is the side effect, my dear August," the man says, addressing the other boy, "of your currently condition."
He smiles at all of you. "You see," he says, in a conversational tone, "all of you are dead."

Laryn laughed, nah no way she smiled, thinking this was just like life on mars or ashes to ashes, although in the current time, you're joking, I'm not dead, no I'm not dead, she shook her head, she wasn't dead, this doesn't happen to people like her, well, hang on prove to us we're dead then?

August turned around as he heard a man voice.."Who are you?What do you mean by side effect?" he asked curious..
Beryl sighed. August was right of course - it was sick. But now there were more pressing matters to tend to. Like this mysterious man who just showed up out of nowhere and knew their names, for instance.

Beryl froze in her tracks at his final words. The color had drained from her face. "D-dead?" she repeated, staring at the man. No, surely she hadn't been right all this time? This one was one time she would absolutely hate to be right. "So," she began slowly, still watching the man carefully, "We are in Hell?"

"Uh, no let's not less this stranger try and prove that, thank you," she shot over at the girl who spoke. No one was coming near her to prove anything - least of all this whack-job.

Aiden almost choked ... on air "WHAT?!" he near yelled but not quite "we're dead?" he repeated shaking his head "dead? no, we can't be dead, that's just insane.... isn't it?" he was starting to hyperventilate which meant he would think out loud

Lisette looked up and saw a man enter. How could he be so jovial? So happy go lucky! The man didn't even know who he was. "DEAD? How could we be dead?" she exclaimed, looking up, her eyes still red from crying. "How.. how do you know that? Who are you? How do you know who we are?" she asked.

"How do you know my name? How do you know I'm Seth? And his name? How do you know? " Seth asked him, eyeing him suspiciously. This man seemed nice enough, but he didn't look trustworthy. Or Seth just felt that because of his apperance, Seth didn't trust people who looked weird. No, he didn't
"Excuse me?" Seth said, his eyes bulging insanely in his sockets. They were dead? DEAD! Was this life after death? Is this what happened to anyone when they died? And why did this man suddenly come and tell them that? How could he possibly know that they were dead? And wait a minute, where did he come from? Where did that door lead to if they were dead?
Seth looked around at Aiden who seemed to have lost control compeletly. His put on hand around his shoulders and stood beside him. "But, sir, how can we be dead?" he asked him emphasizing the word sir cause he didn't know what else to call this man. He thought again about his question and thought that it sounded stupid.
"I mean, we could all feel each other, and I just used the toilet for gods sake!" He said in outrage. Dead people couldn't possibly use the toilet. But wait, what did he know about it? How could he possibly know that dead people didn't go to the bathroom? Oh for god's sake, he thought, chasing these thoughts away. Dead people were D E A D.

Jeffery was speechless. Wait, what? "Ah ha, very funny creepy old guy who came in here randomly. We're not dead. If we were dead, then why are we walking, talking, ect?" He was telling this to himself more than anyone. For some reason he wanted to believe the man. It did explain why they couldn't remember anything at first. But the other half of him thought this guy was nuts. How could they be dead, that's impossible! He didn't want to be dead.

"SO YOUR THE RAT!" Aiden yelled pointing at the creepy dude. He wasn't calling him a rat he had thought of another possibility of how they got caught on tape. Rats with video cameras taped to their backs. He watched as this guy started to pull something out of his jacket "whats tha- no I don't even want to know" he said changing his mind half-way through and turning away

Did he just say... dead? "So what are you? Are you dead too?" Charlotte demanded to know. What was he pulling out? Was he going to kill them all over again just for the for the fun of it? What was wrong with this person? He was smiling as he said it to. Charlotte felt a bit nauseous at the thought of herself being dead. Dead...

Jeffery felt like he wanted to puke. This guy was a psycho! Jeffery's eyes snapped to attention as the guy was about to pull something out of his jacket. "Oh no you don't!" He yelled, sprinting over and tackling the man to the ground, pulling out of his jacket...
Muse of Xevis > | < Defender of Trearlonis > | < Elder of Gostrenac > | < Daughter of Eshoza
A dark, sort of crazed expression crosses the man's face when Aiden calls him a rat, but in the next second he looks confused, like he wasn't sure why he was mad. He smiles cheerily at Charlotte and says, "Oh, yes. I've been dead for quite some time."
He looks very sadly at Laryn and says, "Well, the same way as everyone else here died, but not for the same reason, I'm afraid."
And now he's on the floor, a notebook in his hand, while Jeffrey wrestles him to the ground.
"Wh-what on... on earth?"

Laryn's mind kicked into action as she saw the angry boy run at him, she ran forward and pulled him away, stop, seriously, not a good idea! she said, trying to calm him down, and holding back his arm, she just knew he would do something bad, and who knows what would happen to them and creepy man if he got hurt or even killed
