OPENING LOG: Awakening

WHO: Everybody!
WHERE: The Junk Pile.
WHEN: Right here, right now.
WHAT: Game opening! Our Heroes find themselves in a strange place not of their own world, however familiar (or not) it may be.




Consciousness is slow, and a struggle to obtain. The moments before darkness are hazy enough; a great vertigo, a twisting, and then, falling. Falling for what seemed like forever. And when you are finally aware of your surroundings, it is most decidedly not where you came from.

Instead, you are now in what appears to be a wasteland. A wasteland...of junk. Debris as far as you can see, heaped in mini-mountains that offer only so good of a view of the world around you. Perhaps in the distance, you can make out some flatter land, perhaps you can just make out what looks like a crevice - but it's difficult at best. The light here is all wrong, the two greatest sources being a white line in the alien sky that doesn't so much give off light as simply have it - and something in the south that glows like a setting sun.

You may or may not notice it at first, but you, too, have something alien - something on your arm, more likely than not. A marking that glows softly, but offers no clue as to how it got there - no pain, no sensitivity. It's simply there, as you are here.

So.

Now what?

((OOC: This is it, you guys! Have a blast! Please remember to keep everything under the first thread for now; we'll be adding the Firstforged in in a little bit...

OKAY There is now a second thread to post in! Feel free to make new threads there to react to the arrival of the Firstforged, or respond directly to the Firstforged themselves.))

Korra stared at the fire the figure had summoned in his own hand, it was practically a bonfire, it looked like it could engulf her whole....

The girl kept the shiver within her body, deep in her chest (and thought of Amon's story, of nonbenders and firebenders and if they had no training and no one stepped in they were really helpless and vulnerable to being engulfed whole in flame).

Korra dimmed the flames in her hands somewhat, shifting them to low burning dagger shapes she now held down at her side rather than raised and prepared to attack. But still she kept them on, and at the ready. Just in case.

"Um...both? There are people who can firebend like this--ah, call up flame--but then I...."

Oh wait, should she be saying this now? But she had unthinkingly started, she had to finish it, even if she was self-conscious now.

"Well, normally people can only bend one element, like people can only bend fire, but I'm the only one who can bend--ah, control other elements too, like the earth." And with that, Korra flicked off one of her fire daggers and made a pillar of stone rise with that recently free hand, before making it fall back down.
