"Did someone drug me or what?"
Actually read content of the envelope, those are usually on my table for reason. While stealing the moon is nice project to work on, it doesn't bring food on my table nor pay my bills. Working does.
You pick up the envelope, breaking the seal and flipping it open. Due to the whole density/weight thing, every movement feels heavy handed. Maybe because it is. hmm. You pull out the contents of the letter, flipping it open as a key clatters out and onto the ground. You glance down at it before reading the letter. It says, 'Why hello! I just wanted to notify you that we have provided facilities for your little project! Enclosed is a key and a map, enjoy!' P.S. 'Lock your windows.' It seems that, there is infact, a map inside. You pull it out, opening it as you examined it. [5] The map was made in black and white ink and seems to be fairly accurate. At least you assume... Looks accurate, atleast. You hear screaming outside, of the panicked variety.
open the envelope
You pick up the envelope aswell, opening it quickly and pulling out it's contents, a key, something folded up and the letter itself, you shrug, opening the letter and reading, 'Why hello! I just wanted to notify you that we have provided facilities for your little project! Enclosed is a key and a map, enjoy!' P.S. 'Lock your door next time.' You moved onto the map, unfolding it. [6] The map, it utter and complete detail, as if a professional artist, in pencil, tried to depict the route to what seems to be some sort of building, star shaped, that is with 8 subsections from what you can see. You scoop up the key aswell.
Open the envelope, it really is better not to ignore this stuff
You open your envelope aswell, pulling out the letter and opening it. 'Why hello! I just wanted to notify you that we have provided facilities for your little project! Enclosed is a key and a map, enjoy!' P.S. 'Bedroom window shattered, sorry. Good habit, though.' You glance back at your envelope, and find that there is, indeed, a map and key enclosed inside. You open the map, [1] and you immediately question whither who drew this is a three year old or not. And it's in color. Oh joy. You look up as you hear screaming outside. Sounds panicky.
Search pockets for anything I can use in some way (cell phone, lighter, just generally useful items"). Take note of everything I have. Afterwards, open the envelope and read it's contents.
You give your pockets a quick pat down, finding yourself with your cellphone, a stick of gum, your keys and the waiver. Aswell as a pen or two for emergencies. You then open your envelope, pulling out the usual letter and reading up. 'Why hello! I just wanted to notify you that we have provided facilities for your little project! Enclosed is a key and a map, enjoy!' P.S. 'Doggy door should have security.' ..Do you even own a dog? You shrug, pulling out the map, opening it, and looking at it. [1] ..what? This is just a blank sheet of paper? You squint at the map, as if that would help.. [5] Actually you see some
very faint outlines of some sort of.. path? You assume? You are interrupted from your examinations by panicked screaming outside.
Blink until colour returns. If it doesn't, start calling up anyone and everyone I know who works in a physics lab and turn on the news. Letters can wait.
You channel your inner hipster and decide not to read the letter. You blink a few times, hoping the the colors would return, yet they don't. O woe is thou. You quickly pull out your cellphone and dial the number holding it up to your ear. After awhile of nothing you pull it away and look at your phone, seems you have no bars. [4] ..But you live practically next to a radio tower, how does that work? You try to turn on the TV but all it displays is.. well, nothing. Just static. You hear some people screaming outside in panic.
"This is gonna make flight more challenging. Gah! My ten pound test line is gonna be worthless!"
read the envelope. Then read the contents of the envelope. Then order much heavier test line.
You look at the envelope, now that you actually look at it indepth, you realize it's labeled under the same company that you had met with previously. Hm. You open the envelope and look inside at it's contents. Folded bit of paper, key, and a letter, you pull out the letter and read it's contents. 'Why hello! I just wanted to notify you that we have provided facilities for your little project! Enclosed is a key and a map, enjoy!' P.S. 'Maybe invest in a set of bars in your chimney.' You look over at the chimney for a moment, spotting a half eaten sandwich covered in soot beside it. Well. You decide not to dwell on it for now and pull out what you assume to be the map, unfolding it. [2] ..Oh this is going to be difficult to read. The ink's been smeared around. It should be still accurate but.. It'll be hard as hell to read. You pull out your phone to call somebody to get a heavier test line, but then you realize it had no bars.. Uh.
World Stuff[1] Everything starts to feel drastically colder, and the sun doesn't seem to be shining as brightly anymore. Actually, for that matter, it doesn't seem to be shining /at all/.. Oh..
(flight is gonna be much more expensive, airplanes may be falling out of the sky as we speak. Ship may be sinking as well, though, if water's density and weight also increased, they may remain buoyant. Transportation is gonna be more expensive - more fuel per mile and whatnot.
as forthe monochromaticness - that's gotta affect all manner off electromagnetic signals - radio, microwaves, cell signals, even the energy from the sun. That could be a bigger issue than the weight and density, combined.
All assuming the GM doesn't apply liberal helpings of Handwavium)
(well, it was tempting but, I decided to roll with it (no pun intended) and hope you guys got good rolls on the whole thingy thing. But then you guys rolled a one. again. I'll try to stick to how I know it'll work, but if I'm wrong on anything please do feel free to correct me.)
Physics, Density slightly increased. Everything mono-chrome. Gravity increased. Sun's no longer shining. World's colder.
