| [He can see tiny silvery branches stretching through the darkness. He follows them, though he can't explain how, and shivers as the light blue leaves brush his cheeks. At last, his hands touch the core. He is engulfed by a warm light, though without the humming he sometimes dreams about, and then there is fire. And then there is nothing at all.
The strange dream is only a prelude to something stranger. Expecting to wake up at an inn, Luke's sprawled out on cold, hard ground. The natural grass here is dry and itchy, and the sky is overcast. It's also missing the band of fonstones that can be seen night and day in Auldrant.
He sits up quickly and looks around. To the north is a gathering of white mountains, shrouded by clouds. To the east is a swamp and a line of more mountains. Otherwise, the land is gentle and not too hilly. Feels like he's sitting on something--
-- oh, hell. It's his /replica/. It's his replica and they've both been kidnapped this time. Luke rolls off and frantically shakes his shoulders.]
Ugh. Wake up, you idiot!
[He can't tell underneath all that hair, but they are both certainly gifted with some new... features.] | |

WELCOME TO SILVERTINE[Whether you were eating dinner, fighting someone, or being dead, you now find yourself tossed into a bustling world. The air here is hot and humid from being caught between a warm ocean, a swamp, and a ridge of mountains; everything smells of grease and dirt and wet pavement. Canvas and clockwork airships zoom overhead, nestling like so many birds in the shadows of the biggest mountain. A castle and the city walls are etched into the hillside. It seems to form the foundation of the entire city.
The townspeople are busy with their own lives, and they seem to take no notice of the newcomers, only pointing toward the looming castle if asked for assistance and ignoring anything else. For the most part, they're dressed in a mixture of Victorian fashion and whatever a magnet can attract. Some of them have cat ears, or wolf tails, or horns, or tiny wings. It's so commonplace that it won't even turn heads if you have them, too.
This strange city seems to have everything: a castle, an airship port, a grassy park, a hospital, a farmer's market, shops with clockwork-styled robots, armor and weapons shops, an inn, a theme park and fair... Everything is free to the Otherworlders as well, though there is a theory that the ruling council might be getting their payment some other way. The gates open at dawn and shut at dusk, and outside of them lies a wide open plain supposedly infested with monsters.
How will you spend your day in this strange place?][ooc: This is an OPEN POST. AUs, canon characters, multiples, characters with game history, original characters-- all of this is allowed and encouraged. Also, if you have a character who's played in Strayta, feel free to recognize this as the same world. It's ~the future~.] | |
