It is cold. Very cold.
You struggle to move. This is difficult, as you can see and feel nothing around you, but a series of beeps cuts through the chilly air.
With great effort, you manage to stand up, slumping against some metal object. It is the size and shape of a refrigerator, but it has sharper edges, is obviously made of thick metal, and has a heavily secured door. You are in a small, brightly lit rectangular room, made of the same metal. In one end is a sliding door recessed in the wall. It has a small window.

There is something in your pocket.

Keep your wits.
Welcome to Assemblage, a RTD. Players will be put in in groups of three. We need two more players.

Spoiler: Rules (click to show/hide)

- Played with a normal six-sided die.
- Checking the Item In Your Pocket (as it shall be called because I don't have a dictionary available) is a free action. You can only do it once per turn, but you can do your normal turn regardless of the Item. Using the Item still constitutes a normal turn.
- You can have conditional turns. I.e. "Unlock the door. If it succeeds, open it. If it fails doesn't, go back." They cannot be nested.
- Profanity or otherwise questionable content will cause me to immediately remove you from the game.

Spoiler: Character Sheets (click to show/hide)

- A name to call you:
- Gender:
- Some useful (but not too godlike) ability. (Has to be something a person could actually attain without magic or technology.):
-Appearance: eye color, hair color. You're all wearing the same thing right now, so no need to describe that.:
- A guess as to what's going on here, so I can gauge your thoughts:

Remember that this is a non-arcane world. All of you are human; no magic.
You all start in that one room. I described more of it after Nix, Erin, and Juni joined.

[NRDL]

Name: Nix
Gender: Male
Ability: I have a very keen sense of smell, like a human bloodhound.
Appearance: Black eyes, black hair but with some green dye on the fringes. Quite short.

[Eschar]

Nix, you're accepted. And a keen sense of smell will might be quite useful.

[Eschar]

By the way, all of you will want to examine your pocket when we start. Not that you will find out completely what the thing is yet.

[Coolrune206]

Name: Juni
Gender: Female
Ability: Can see in the dark as well as she can in the light
Appearance: Juni stands a little above average height, and is well built. Her blue eyes are usually quite soft, but become very sharp when she is serious. She has brown hair down to the chin.

[Eschar]

Juni is accepted. Interesting detail about the eyes.

OK, that's only one more player.

[Glass]

Name: Erin Quill
Gender: male
Ability: Can make useful contraptions out of some... fairly suspect materials (I.e. a working vehicle out of pieces of a single broken-down car)
Appearance: Of average height, with black hair and a vaguely Arab appearance. His eyes aren't really visible past his hair.

[Eschar]

I'm sorry, but I forgot to mention that it is set in a normal non-arcane world. So everyone is human, and no frost magic. However, Jack, you will still be in if you modify the char sheet.
I apologize. I'll put that constraint in the first post.

[Glass]

 
Ok, gimme a little while to finish some other stuff up, and then I'll redo the sheet.

[Eschar]

Ok. I'll keep the joining "closed" until then so you can join, as three players is now the pseudo-limit.

[Eschar]

Actually, we *can* have one more player, but we won't have to have before we start.

[Glass]

I edited the character sheet to work better.

[Eschar]

Accepted. Nice ability. I will post the promised surroundings-decription in a few minutes; I am under the inconvenience of having to eat.

[crazyabe]

Spoiler: sheet (click to show/hide)

- A name to call you: Bob
- Gender: Male
- Some useful (but not too godlike) ability. (For example, you could be able to hold your breath for a while): Do to a Life of Drug abuse, Drinking, And Snake wrangling, he is resistant to the majority of poisionus substances
- Appearance: eye color, hair color. You're all wearing the same thing right now, so no need to describe that.: Hair: Bald, Eye color: Blue

[Glass]

Accepted. Nice ability. I will post the promised surroundings-description in a few minutes; I am under the inconvenience of having to eat.

As a general rule, if a character is named Erin Quill, then they get tinker-powers. A Jack Frost is icy, an Aaron Blaze will have some ability using fire, metal, sand, or time, and so on and so forth based on various things that I have associated with the names. If I don't have something I specifically want to do with them, I'll either use a mysterious shadowy figure with no real identity or else someone who's the Jack (removed "of") [insert thing here].
