ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE...

[pleasureislanders]

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.

MEETING IN THE LOBBY AT NOON
- G ♥
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. ]

[...She didn't actually expect anything to happen.

And yet, she's still disappointed.]

Oh great. And let me guess, your master doesn't want us to leave?

[But she'll tuck that thought about lamps away for later.]

[neverhadafriend]

[More dinging.]

Exactly! The master wouldn't have asked to bring you here if they wanted you to leave.

But I'm sure the front door will be unlocked sooner or later! If not I probably have enough free will to open a door!

[Hopefully.]

[feudalladyshandmaid]

["Front door" perks her interest! Then again.]

And you can't open the front door for us now, because...?

[neverhadafriend]

Hey I never said I couldn't. Let the Genie get you out of here.

[He approaches the front door, and...]

[feudalladyshandmaid]

[...]

Did anything happen?

[neverhadafriend]

[Tries to open the door.

...]

You'd think the master wouldn't care that much about leaving right now

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Oo-kay...

[This bodes poorly.]

So much for that free will. [She feels... kind of bad now.] Sorry.

[neverhadafriend]

Hey kid, there's not much we can do about the door, but the master'll probably let you out sooner or later!

Spoilers, I've seen the island and there's not much that the master would be horrified with you seeing.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

That doesn't sound like an entirely good thing.

[What would horrify the person keeping them here?]

Wait, so we get an entire island to ourselves?

[neverhadafriend]

[No spoilers ;)]

Hit the nail right on the head! Pleasure Island is a fabulous vacation destination and once the master decides to open the door! I"m sure you'll just love it!

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Ohhh, a vacation.

I'm not the type for those. [Even though she was kinda on her way to one.] I would have at least liked to be invited first.
