[video] 1st Shape

[notjelly]

[There's someone new on the network. They appear to be human, but at a second glance, it's clear there's some...differences. Her eyes definitely look more cat-like than anything, and she's got huge rabbit ears sprouting from her head. In addition to the perfectly human ears on the sides of her head, because who doesn't want extra ears sometimes? She beams and waves at the camera with a hand that ends in a bear's claws.]

Hello, hello! Camille here, I'm new! And I have a small request! Those dragons are still kicking around, wreaking havoc and all that, yes? Awful rude, awful dangerous and all but, I know some of you brave hearts are aiming to put them down! So, my request--if you can manage it, try not to damage them too badly? I'm planning on turning them into dragon pies, if I can! Who doesn't like a good meat pie when the weather starts to get cold? Well, not that there's technically weather down here, hu hu, but you take my meaning!

So, yes! If anyone knows about...fileting a dragon? That would be helpful, as I have no earthly idea. What better way to introduce myself to the city than with a metric ton of dragon meat pies? Just need to, ah, get my hands on enough flour and such for the crust. Need me a house of sorts before then, I'm thinking...

[She grins again and gives a double thumbs-up.]

That's all! Unhappy to be here, Hadrielites, but I aim to make the most of it!

Pyromancer, I like that term, sounds fancy. But yeah, something like that. I dunno that I'd go as far as elemental, I'm still human, to the best of my knowledge, but me and fire, we have an understanding.

LOL?

[Light help him, he has yet to be introduced to netspeak.]

[notjelly]

And a fire mage, no less! I see, I see! Yes, pyromancer would best describe you, at least back in my world. Fire elementals are a pretty specific creature.

[Being made of literal fire and all.]

LOL! it means "laughing out loud!" it's faster than typing out "hahahaha!" i guess? something the kids do on the internets these days!

[promises_to_keep]

Yes! Mage, yes, creature... not so much.

Oho, I see, Laughing Out Loud! I'll have to remember that one. Learn something new every day, huh. What're these 'internets'?

[notjelly]

The internets are like...a digital world where people can find information and porn and can also talk to each other? I don't really understand it all myself. Nor am I up to speed on all the lingo.

[promises_to_keep]

Oh! Like the Grid, okay. [He had played computer games back home, but he always wanted to check out the Grid, the big game system they'd had at the castle. Of course, he'd never made it down to the basements without getting caught...] So these internets are all connected, then? I'm not really that computer savvy, myself; I had a few games when I was a kid, and we used some machinery for work, at my old job, but nothing really widespread.

Can anybody talk to anybody on the internets? That sounds kind of awesome.

[notjelly]

Yes, they're all connected! So you can talk to anybody anywhere, even if they're on the other side of the world! Sort of how these phones work, I think. Only I'm not too sure they'd work all that well if someone tried to go to the other side of whatever world this is. I hear they lose reception in the tunnels.

sorry so late, i was away for most of last week!

[promises_to_keep]

Ah, yes, the tunnels. I haven't visited yet, I can't decide if I'm intrigued or just kind of spooked, honestly. Has anyone ever made it to the other side of whatever this world is?

is okay i've been pretty behind anyway haha

[notjelly]

Right? I think I'm feeling both! I sort of want to go in there and see what shapes I can get from all the weird critters, but I also don't want to die!

Not that I've heard of. I don't think anyone's even made it to the surface, if there is one.

[promises_to_keep]

What shapes you can get?
