Or I could just abandon the Modieval system since everyone pretty much knows what to do anyway and has experience with RPing.
Yeah, that's a great idea.
~~~~~Eflek Yirkut (Lawastooshort)~~~~~And what the crikey was that large shape moving just ahead?!
Eflek immediately tried to get up and roll into the defensive position she’d learnt to adopt when faced by a maddened rutting reindeer: crouched and ready to jump up and scare the bejesus out of the approaching fiend.
Then she brushed the hair out of her eyes. Her mother said they were her best feature, so there was no point being unprepared.
(Nimbleness: 17) Eflek reorients herself on the floor, pushes forward with her chest and somersaults forward into a crouched position. However, she bumps up against something in the darkness, pushing it to the side. It felt awfully large. Just what was it?
With a brief "MMMMMM" a pair of round lights on the ceiling flicker on and illuminate Eflek's surroundings. She finds herself surrounded by three other figures. They all look like kids not unlike herself.
~~~~~Seth Miller (Sjm9876)~~~~~Seth was perpexed. But there wasn't all that much he could do without knowing where he was. So Seth pulled himself to his feet and started to feel around......
Seth pulls himself to his feet and feels around. The new light nearly blinds him for a moment, but his eyes adjust and he sees the other three kids, just as confused as he is, resting in the room around him. He feels around and comes up against a brick wall to his left.
((The active character will now be denoted with a small white arrow like the one seen above.))
~~~~~Raphael Canan (Taricus)~~~~~Raphael dusted the front of his windcheater off, before placing his hands on the stone and pushing up on it, in an attempt to get back on his feet.
Raphael, noticing someone seems to have pushed him aside, pushes himself up with his hands and gets back on his feet. The room is lit now, and he sees three other kids around him.
He sees a shadowed figure up ahead.
~~~~~Maria Cevedes (Errol)~~~~~..oh. Great. Whoever was responsible for this - prank, kidnapping, or whatever this was - this responsible person better prepare for a fist in their face. Wait, calm down, calm down... no use getting angry over this. Not yet. Not now. Breathe in, breathe out. It would be best to just pretend to still be asleep and listen carefully to whatever happens. And then, if one of these people is responsible for this - beat the crap out of them. If they're all victims too, though, just peacefully introduce self, and ask who they are.
Maria briefly considers punching the nearest thing, but decides against it. She instead waits to see what happens. What happens is the lights come on and three other kids, just as dazed as her, walk around in confusion. One of them, in a red fur suit, is shorter than her. Another, with wild black hair and a gangly look, is feeling up the walls. The third one is just now getting up.
The fourth one up ahead is almost certainly not a kid. Maria and the others hear the deep voice of an tall man in a black suit.
:
"Hello. I'm sure you're all very confused. In the interest of honesty, my name is Ford. You may call me other names, but I will only respond to 'Ford.'"The figure folds his arms.
:
"You're on floor B17 of a top-secret DARPA research facility. If you're unaware, 'top-secret' means 'information that would cause exceptionally grave damage to the country if it were to be released.' The smarter of you are putting two and two together now."He gestures to Raphael and gives him a hard glare.
:
"I must ask: do any of you know why you're here?"
