Ashgate #1 - Game Thread

You awaken in a small, dimly lit room. As you sit up, the first thing you notice is the throbbing pain in your head. Taking a look at your surroundings, the room is mostly bare - the wooden desk and chair a stark contrast against the cold, metallic room. As you lift yourself from the bed you were lying on, you notice a door on the opposite wall.

What do you do?

 

Ok so what do we do exactly &.& how does this setup work?

 

(Nice response, though, try to keep it to simple commands!)

You move over towards the door, waiting for it to open. You're confused by your own expectation, and wonder how you would get it open. Upon examining closer - you see a card reader on the right side of the door.

What do you do?

 

Using the information given by the GM - post simple commands to progress the scenario.

 

I graze my hand over the card reader, checking for buttons.

 

You decide to examine the card reader. It's rectangular in size, and black. It seems to be somewhat translucent, as you can see circuitry and LED lights under the surface. As you probe the card-reader, you can tell that it is completely smooth and has no indentations. Your hopes in finding any buttons has been dashed.

 

I myself kind of confused on how things work I thought each person has his own character etc. But apparently it's a single character that everyone controls. But if that's the case then let's say one of us decided to do the complete opposite of what other person did. Does it overwrite his/her action?

Anyways.

>I stand up and examine the room I am in first before approaching the door.

 

(You build upon what the last posted, kind of like hotseat zorc.)

 

oh I see thanks ^^

 

After examining the door, you decide to take another look around the room. The room is unchanged, but as you look upon your bed, you see a pool of blood that has formed on the sheets.

What do you do?

 

>I approach the pool of blood that formed on the sheets and examine it, trying to find it's source.

 

I place my fingers in the pool of blood, checking to see how much it has aged through both temperature and texture, if it is liquid or dried and cracking.

 

(I propose two rules, to keep things formal and organized:

1: Post any-non move responses in brackets, as I have, so we can easily differentiate.
2: We wait until another has posted before we take another turn.)

 

You were pretty sure this was where you were lying when you woke up.

For a moment, you feel strange. Instinctively you know it is your blood, and find it somewhat surreal to be staring down at it like this. Your head throbs more intensely for a moment, as if to try and remind you of something.
