ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE...
The first thing you notice upon gaining consciousness is the smell. The air smells musty and woody, like the back corner of some forgotten tourist trap. As you stir yourself awake, you find yourself in a wicker bed with a soft sheet draped over you. The room’s walls are wood-paneled, and a nearby desk displays a digital clock reading “9 AM”. A singular potted plant provides the barest amount of decoration--though, the exact plant species differs between rooms. A note written in flowing cursive has been taped to your door.

As you make your way out of your room, you’ll find yourself on a balcony overlooking a octagonal lobby below. Various artifacts and trophies decorate the club from top to bottom, cluttering the walls and any available surface. From here, you can clearly see that the marble floor of the lobby is decorated to look like a compass. Descending the stairs will reveal that, in addition to the artifacts mounted on the walls, several plaques have been put up detailing the lives of those trapped here--including you.
If you peer out the windows, you’ll see a tropical island sprawled out before you, overgrown with palm trees and shrubs. If you peer far enough above the treeline, you might even be able to see the ocean. No matter how hard you try, the front door is sealed shut and the windows seem impossible to break.
You've got until noon 'til the meeting happens. For now...enjoy the club, if you can.
[ OOC: Welcome to the Adventurers Club! We're so excited to have you here. This is the intro log--feel free to mingle on this post to your hearts content. At 6 PM EST, we'll be introducing the host! If you have any questions, feel free to direct them to the mods. ]

I dunno... it's weird, but not cursed magic kind of weird. If someone was planning to kidnap all these people, then they had to have learned about them first, right?
[Like... they had to know she was a princess so they could get into the castle. Or they had to know a lot about Cass to know where she was going... it's creepy, definitely, but nothing like the cursed lorb artifacts or Zhan Tiri's disciples.]

Ha! No, there's definitely hinky magic going on. Or "sufficiently advanced science," I guess, after a while it's all the same.

Is magic the same as science, though? [It's almost like she can hear Varian screaming in the distance right now...] I mean, science can do some pretty cool stuff that looks like magic! But there's still a big difference.
