Paper castles make me think of a Pop-up book!
Explore nearby paper castle with pink rose bushes, and black ink pond.

>Dato: Explore your surroundings. You get ready to explore the virtual world- that castle just yonder looks interesting enough. But first there's the matter of getting down from your-Oh no.>Dato: Descend. You descend from your house in the clumsiest way possible, landing with a thud on the land's tissue-like grass. Your 1-Might, 4- Constitution, and 1- Agility gave you no help here. One could even theoretically say that these led to your downfall.In any case, you have been knocked unconscious by your descent. Your exploration will have to wait.======>
What? Could it be? Why, it's the fabled Character Select Screen! Of the 12 possible choices, it seems that only 5 are unlocked at the moment: Brant, Ellisar, and two other chaps who we have not met yet. In addition, Dato appears to be dreaming while KO'd.
Who will you be? |

Since Brown and Green tied, I had to do a coin flip tie breaker.
And the next dude is..... *drum roll intensifies*
The Brown Symbol Dude!
(Though I promise the Green Guy will have his chance soon!)

It has been 15.453333901 solareons since your birth, 23.567234333333 quinianums since you've decided on your current task, and 42.1233336111 therasecs since Dato threw that plan into disarray. Though you can clearly remember your Imperial ID Number, 0096141618652, the disruption of your plans has left your mind blank, unable to comprehend even basic words, your name included.

>Enter name: Rikkard Dolunas. Very close! "Rikkard Dolunas" would have been the Old Dwarven form of your name, but as with modern custom your name is shortened. Nevertheless, your attempt has helped the dwarf remember his identity, and his mind's gears have began to turn once more, settling into his typical state of calm indifference.======> Your name is RIK D'LUNAS. You are a subspecies of dwarf, a GNOME to be exact. As typical of your kind, you possess a strong affinity for TINKERING AND SILICRAFT, creating circuitry, computers, holograms, etc. Such technologies are highly prized by the Empire, and as a result gnomes have achieved an UPPER MIDDLE CLASS status among the other dwarves. According to the letter you received, your silicraft is extraordinarily good, earning recognition from the Empire and thus earning your place in the Game. While you don't deny that you take your CREATOR status seriously, that Fae player suggested that your selection had more sinister motives.
He was right. After hacking the Imperial MPyre Archives last night (an unbelievably easy task with no security obstacles, as if the Imperial Cyberguards were some how assassinated in their sleep), you discover that the reason you were chosen was for your MULTIPLE COGNITIVE PROBLEMS. In addition to DIFFICULTY EMPATHIZING, you also have DYSLEXIA and DYSCALCULIA. To compensate, you rely heavily on SOUND AND VOICE COMMANDS in order to communicate with and understand others. While you certainly don't see these as issues as you prefer the COMPANY OF MACHINES TO PEOPLE, you figure it best to befriend a few people if you want to survive today.
You possess a love of CONFECTIONERY AND BAKED GOODS- you spend a good portion of your income on sweets, and you got some stored in your inventory at all times. You also spend a good portion of your money on GROOMING AND CLEANING PRODUCTS as you have a great impulse to keep EVERYTHING IN ORDER. Needless to say, dentists love you. Though all dwarves get them, you are especially prone to STRANGE MOODS where you are compelled to create something- even though you can't picture it, your instincts guide your hands magically for hours until the product is finally done. You LOVE these, even if you FORGET to do some things. Like sleeping.
Your gramoniker is thinkerTinker and your gnomish accegnt is quite gnoticable. gNot to mentiogn your almost mechagnical voice.
What will you do? |

Consider any past Strange Moods that you've fallen prey too. Were they successful? Or do you still yearn for the muse's touch?
What is your holowatch currently displaying?

>Rik: Eat some sweets. You open your inventory. Let's see here... you find some leftover sweet potapple pie from the cafeteria and your favorite flavor of lollipops, rutabango. Alas, you don't have an oven for heating up the pie and lukewarm pie is kinda gross. The lollipop it is then. You ponder for a moment whether eating a sucker is worth the tooth decay and extra sugar for today. Does your mental schedule allow for a small early morning snack? Taking into account the rate of oral digestion for sugar and the size of the lolly, it should take about 9.5466 quinianums to fully dissolve, all the while leaving your hands free to do some crafting. Perfect.
======> Despite what your dentists might say, this was a GREAT idea. You savor the saccharine-tartness of rutabango; it's a comforting mellow flavor that reminds you of home even amidst the chaos of this past week.>Rik: Consider your past "strange moods." You are reminded of your past creations. The problem with strange moods is that you never know exactly what you will create; you just make. While many of your works are the basic computers, clocks, servers, and the like, your most recent mood led to the creation of the Gatzi-Mutsi 1000, a hard light projector with an interactive AI character. Tangible with speech and visual input, it created a muscular male figure that people can touch, talk to, and even customize. After passing out (3.5 turnings of no sleep for this project) and waking up, you remember marveling at your craftsmanship before realizing exactly what your machine can be used for.
Though you store it in your inventory, you prefer not to think about it too much. |

>Rik: Check holowatch display. You check your holowatch display. On it is a blueprint for a 3D printer specialized for silicraft. Some of the parts for the ancient holowatch model are simply unavailable because of age- even if you had the designs for it, you can't make it without the necessary pieces. Better to print them than scrounge the training grounds for parts that might not be there. In any case, this will give you something to work your mind over and avoid talking to the other players like Dato suggested. By your estimates, this will be done hopefully 234.99845 quiniums provided including breaks, which puts its completion at about late morning. You hope Dato sends his watch or the watch designs by then- if the Warden haven't offed him for being late by that point.>Rik: Think about potential friends while you tinker. You think about the other players and your friendship potentials with them while beginning to tinker with the printer. As you cannot socialize particularly well, you often passively let the other party do all the befriending and you just go along for the ride. The most sociable and cheery of the players have done this- Dato, Ellisar, and SN already classify you as an acquaintance. Though a little too outgoing for your tastes, their constant smiles are reassuring that they have your best interests at heart. Of course, the Empire's weakest orc, the nicest elf, and a bum won't exactly help you survive long.======> Then of course there's the Fae guy. He seems to have it all- looks, smarts, and an unnecessary amount of muscle- not to mention magic powers. Though he speaks of some crazy utopian idea of "making the Empire a place where all are treated with equality," you do not share his vision. As long as it doesn't impede on your creation processes, you'll be fine with whatever government is in place. Nevertheless, he would definitely be a good ally to have in the Game- after all, he was the one he alerted you to the motives to your selection. |

>Rik: Find someone who shares your world views. You have not acquainted yourself with the other players besides the 3 cheerful ones and the Fae, so you do not know their world views nor their contacts. A shame the grumpy mountain dwarf didn't befriend you. He seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't want people disrupting his craft in addition to being capable and hardworking.While you could go out of your way to talk to him, that involves- oh yogs- talking to another person face-to-face. Better play it safe and send a message to the people you already know.
Who will you message first?
