Click here for the OOC/Shipping thread

Remember. You will find all the rules to the game on the first post of the OOC thread. The extended character descriptions are on the second post of that thread, which you will need to use to see your ability costs. Please ask there and not here if you have any questions.

You find yourselves washed up on a purple-tier beach at F6...

To the north: you can see what appears to be a plateau.
To the east: you can see what appears to be an ocean.
To the south: you can see what appears to be a beach.
To the west: you can see what appears to be a farmland.

Tutorial: Staying together is not strictly mandatory, but if you don't then this might be a very short game. The next update will take longer than normal to give you an opportunity to co-ordinate. You won't find any resources on purple tiles, so you'll have to move! Remember that moving to a while tile will trigger a battle.

"...Hmm..."

Vivien puts her finger to the ground, before licking it... and then begins spitting out dirt.

After that brief turn of events, she then points west, seemingly unfazed. "That way! But first..."

Vivien waves her hands, and a field of magic energy surrounds Emily.

"Now, let's go!" Vivien smiles. "No time to wait."

Emily appears to be trying to psyche herself up to go to the west
You should follow her
Farmland means people must be nearby, people could know what's going on.
Yes, you should go
but it could be dangerous
You have me
That doesn't make me feel any better
Just do it, you have nothing to worry about
Wait, I'll go with you
Move west to E6

"I hate these kind of dreams, wake up on a beach with a bunch of people you don't know."
He looks around for a bit while listening to the others talk.
"So you guys want to go to a farm or something, I guess I'll go with you I ain't got noting better to do anyway."
Go to E6.

Bubbles awakens last on the beach. Unsure of what is going on, he sees a few other people in a similar situation moving west.

"Hey! Wait up!", he calls out as he follows the other survivors to E6.

You stick together for now, and you find yourselves on a green-tier farmland at E6.

There are monsters here. There is what appears to be an animated scarecrow. It appears to have a body composed of straw, a hat, some practical clothing, and a large scythe.

There are four black monster crows. They are as large as an Emu and their eyes glow red.

To the north: you can see what appears to be a forest.
To the east: you can see a purple-tier beach.
To the south: you can see what appears to be a forest.
To the west: you can see what appears to be a grassland.

Tutorial: You can use your abilities as many times as you want in combat as long as you have the energy. So if you have a 10 energy attack power you can use it three times at the cost of 30 energy. If you use the ability three times and only two hits are needed to kill a monster, then you still pay the full 30 energy. You can use if statements to decide what abilities you will use, but you pay the energy for every possible ability. This means that if you try to use an attack until the enemy is dead, then you will consume all of your energy. The same rules apply to monsters. You'll need to learn to be efficient yet thourough! How? Surprise me!

Gaah!! What are those things?
A threat, and a challenge. Unleash your/our powers, kill them all!!
But I'm just a schoolgirl, I can't fight those things!!!
Emily runs for cover behind someone, Should her powers manifest she will use telekinetic slam on the crows

"Die, monster! You don't belong in this world!" Vivien says as she claps her hands. A magic missile starts flying.

Vivien: Fire a magic missile at the nearest crow. In the event that no crows are nearby, any of the crows we're fighting is fine.

Note: The update was edited to reflect an action. Please do not hide your actions in spoilers. I also recommend bolding your actions (and not bolding anything that is not an action)

"Great here's the part of the dream where I get attacked by mutants until I run out of bullets."
Shoot the scarecrow with the .38 revolver four times in the torso.

Seeing the youngest member of the group run from what appear to be giant birds led by a scarecrow Bubbles allows Emily to take cover behind him.

Prepare the use of Bulk Up to deflect an attack on him. Attempt to intercept any attack on Emily. If one of the monsters attempts to engage his allies at close range, use Behemoth Blast to knock them away, prioritizing those attacking Emily (do this only once).
