I'm joining the trend, sort of! Except, well, every troper who posts here is themself. Expect large amounts of text at times!

Today, we begin the story of castaways.

Stranded, after tragic circumstances involving a cruise, and currently passed out somewhere on this island.

So, shall the story begin?

>

You can just start with a command like >Wake Up. I'll fill in the blanks! Also, feel free to describe your appearance, and be warned, this is a Fantasy Kitchen Sink of an island! Death may not be the end, and shenanigans will occur.

Revyark reaches for the light switch, as she awakens from a very, very sleep depriving night, only to find the lights to her room aren't working!

As her eyes adjust to the near lack of light, she opens the blinds to find-

Ah.

The boat has run aground.

In the room with her is a bag of her belongings, five belongings which she may pick, to be precise.


Whizzerd awakens, only to shut their eyes, wincing, as they wonder exactly how they're on...

They pat the ground. Sand. There's the sound of waves... Woo, a beach.


Ultimatum, or Ulti awakens, on top of a majestic mountain, gazing down at the glorious wonder that is the land.

He immediately, after around five seconds, goes back to sleep, muttering something about how he was on a boat earlier.

One might question how he got up there, but, meh. Ulti tired.


Cathari, or Cathy awakens, as she looks around her room on the boat. In it, are five of her belongings, which she may pick.

Outside from a distance, a figure baps the sand, eyes closed.


Golg awakens, only to fall asleep in an instant, as the two figures next to him poke him experimentally with a stick.

-indecipherable babbling-

It is far too early to deal with being in a forest with a giant tree person and a hooded thing eying you.


Sed stays asleep, as they begin to dream.

They are in a castle, and are in fact, the ruler of their dream realm! Woo. Go nuts.


Bacon awakens to find himself in an odd predicament. For one, he's on top of the ship, getting a slight sunburn, and two, the boat's beached!

Thankfully, there's a ladder to his left.

Hamza awakens, as they stand up, in the middile of the forest.

First thing's first, they think, as they look around, feeling a rumble in their tummy.

Look for food.

Thankfully, they're surrounded by trees! Some should have fruit on em.

Four trees are close by. Which do you inspect?


Bacon Zorp screams, as they pose epically.

If not for the sunburns- sorry, battle scars, this would be a momentous occasion.

Bacon checks their pockets to find a small mushroom, a guide on timed hits, a small harmonica, and in his other pocket, a bottle known to man as Sunny D, and a pocket knife!


Revy checks her bag, and nods as she looks over everything. Mhm, everything seems to be in order.

Say, why was she on that boat?

Well, she's pretty sure the cruise was free, and it was on a 'round the world tour.'

Though to be honest, she did find it mildly suspicious at the time.

But hey, free vacation!


Sed gazes into the eyes of their subjects, as their cheers fill the heavens, and know what they must do.

They stand next to a mountain, and chop it down with the edge of their head- OH GOD.

In the midst of this epic act, they failed to realize that the mountain, now cut, was falling towards their kingdom, demolishing it.

Hundreds dead. Several injured.

All. Your. Fault.

You wake up with a mild headache and forget about it.


Whizzerd stands up, realizing they're not in Kansas anymore. Or their room! OH NO!

They shoot up, just in time to hear a scream from the top of the nearby boat, beached!

OH GOD. SOMEONE IS HURT.


Starbee awakens slowly, checking her alarm clock. Urgh, did she miss the beginning of the buffet line? They had great snacks.

As she looked at the alarm clock, she'd realize the clock was flickering, meaning the power to her room had gone out! Wait. DID SHE MISS THE BUFFE-

Starb examines her surroundings, finding five of her belongings! What are they? Who knows?


Zero awakens, falling from the sky, or to be honest, from a mountain, as above, someone mutters about having been on a boat, before going back to sleep. Why didn't they catch him?!

As they fell, before they hit a tree, blacking out for a moment, they had enough time to think of one last line.

Worst. Trust Fall. Ever.

When they awoke on top of a tree, they'd notice Hazma below, looking for fruit, as they looked at their vintage keyblade.


Cathy acquires her belongings, as she begins to look around outside, knocking on doors and occasionally hearing hissing noises, before a grunt is heard from below.

She can, however, hear noises from one of the nearby rooms!

—-

BMA awakens, as they do a reference that I'm not sure I comprehend, as they panic for a moment, only to hear a girly MANLY SCREAM FROM ABOVE, as BMA looks around on the deck.
