Stranded: Day One

MSPFA MIRROR
OMEGAUPDATE THREAD
Once upon a time.

Once upon a time, a brave explorer went to sail across the ocean to parts unknown.

====>

Unfortunately, he encountered a storm that wrecked his ship.

====>

Now, clinging onto a plank of driftwood, he washed up on the shore of a mysterious island.

====>

And this is where you are, sitting on the beach.
Every hero needs a name.
What is yours?

Zarlsmon the Twice-Drowned

Tim

Elizabeth

Lizz

Lizz is a great name!

>Bilbo (no relation)

>Lizzy

>Zarlsmon the Twice-Drowned

You haven’t actually drowned twice yet, but you pick up the title “the Twice-Drowned” for kicks and because no one else is here to tell you to not to desecrate hero titles.

Your name is…

====>

Koth Zalexius Elizzar (the Twice-Drowned.)

Koth, of course, being the lordly title which you don’t have any technical right to claim, but once again you’re lost on some island and you can do anything you want.

====>

Zalexius is the name you chose for yourself as a young hatchling, after the ancient conquerer from house Dracias who was said to have conquered all of Jerlemourne.

He also played the guitar.

You wish you could play the guitar.

====>

And finally, Elizzar is your house name.

The house Elizzar is a minor house that holds dominion over a few islands in the tropical north of Jerlemourne.

Minor houses like the house Elizzar don’t get any special titles to the names of younger nobles.

Which is why you picked up Koth, which is the term to denote a lord of a major house such as the house Rolasas or the house Symer.

====>

With all of the nuances of naming clarified, you are struck with the question that every being with free will must ask themselves once in a while:

What will you do?

>Play air guitar for an hour or two.

>Look for treasure
>Wait, no, that's stupid. Look for supplies instead.

>Play air guitar for an hour or two.

Yeah!!!!!
You do your best to play the air guitar while loudly humming to yourself.

>Wait, no, that's stupid. Look for supplies instead.

You realize that you should do something productive.

>Equip driftwood as a club, and walk up the hill to get a better look at your surroundings.

You already have a small knife that you are totally skilled in wielding, but you pick up the driftwood anyways.

====>

You walk onto the hill.
Looks like this island is pretty much all forest and beaches.
The trees are pink for some reason.
It’s pretty big looking down the shore in either direction.

>Write your name into the sand to claim the island as your own!

You run down to the shore again.

====>

You write your nickname into the beach.
This island is now yours!
You name it “Zalex Island.”

?: Tiṡ!

IPESAK: What is that?
ZAGISHAY: Quiet!
ZAGISHAY: I think it’s dangerous.
IPESAK: It played air guitar and sung loudly for two whole hours, and it’s now just playing in the sand.
IPESAK: Anything that plays air guitar can’t be dangerous!
ZAGISHAY: Well, I think it’s still untrustworthy.

>Find some sticks and play the drums. You are a one-man-band!

>Islanders: Capture the stranger!

Zalex: Look for food!
