Summary: A catch-all for the Kyln / Sierra Madre event!
The Story:

For the duration of this event, the entire mansion will be part space jail, part apocalyptic wasteland desert with an abandoned hotel/casino. On the third day an escape route not previously discovered in the Kyln appears and breakouts can be planned...

...Only for everyone to find themselves walking through a large glass prison toward the toxic gas filled wasteland of a desert, the Sierra Madre. Does the prison look better than the toxic cloud outside? If you're stuck in the prison after dark beyond day 3, you'll be forced into and locked in your cell for the night. But at least locked away, nothing from the outside can hurt you. If you try to brave the actual elements in the desert it might be a little hard to breathe. The air has pockets of toxic gas and even a few seconds of exposure could prove deadly. And watch out for the Ghost People.

Inside the abandoned hotel/casino you'll find shelter from the gas and ghosts, but beware the holograms that are 50/50 with their attitude. Prison beatings, a beating from the holograms, which one Would You Rather? And whatever you do, don't try on the collars lying around unless you like to explode. Literally.

[ This is a catch-all for all your prison/desert needs! Please mark your threads clearly in the subject line with your character's name and either a cell number or just a location if you didn't feel like randomizing it or you're making a top level for a public place (like the dining hall or wandering the hotel/casino). Here's the plot post if you need it!

Have fun! ]

Yeah, what the fuck could go wrong. And that's fine, wouldn't want you to get squashed or shit.

[She looks pretty damn human and they're so very, very breakable. And so, Grendel stomps off into the middle of the room, picking up a chair and throwing it at the nearest guard. Of course the guards are quick to race to the protection of their fellow worker- Gren gets a few whacks in before he gets tasered to the ground.

Fun times, fun times. ]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckers.

[entreats]

[ ... Oh. Oh geez. It's not like Ange expected them to just let it go easily, but this seems a little extreme. He's already tasered and down before she knows it, and then in the wink of an eye the guards are just gone again. Now that's just brutal-- what are they supposed to do against that?

At least she quickly gets over to him once the situation has fully gotten through to her, her pokerface slipping into something a little more worried or sympathetic as she squats down. ]

Do you think you can stand? I can try and help you up.

[oneagainstall]

[Grendel lets out a low groan, before levering himself up with his arm, pushing himself up to his feet. ]

That. That was fuckin' rude. What the shit is with those guys?

[Wow Gren, it's almost like you threw a chair at them. ]

[entreats]

[ That last part is along her line of thought.. But even so, this place seems to be a little more brutal than normal prisons. ]

Seems like they don't really enjoy being target practice volunteers. [ A little dryly. Deadpan is always the main way of coping with any situation. ] Still, it doesn't seem like they'll go easy on us for anything.

[oneagainstall]

[Deadpan is the best way to deal with anything. ]

Maybe it wouldn't happen if they didn't have stupid fuckin' faces.

Guess it was worth a shot.

[entreats]

.. So that just means we're going to be stuck here for the time being.

[ Since if even he can't do anything about those guards, then she knows she sure won't be able to do a thing. Even without any special powers, he's still way bigger than she is. ]

What a pain. This ought to better go away after a while like everything else.

[oneagainstall]

Yeah, sure fuckin' looks that way.

[He's not experienced enough Events to make a proper judgement call, but still- ]

I mean, shit, most of them do, right? Makes sense it'll go back to regular.

[entreats]

[ Ange nods. ]

So far every single one I've experienced just.. well, disappeared after a while. Although I can't say I've experienced one where we were brought to another place. [ So this one does feel slightly different, even if there's no sign of worry on her face. ] So I can't say for sure whether the same principle applies here.

[oneagainstall]

Me either. It's fuckin' weird.

[And with the magic off, then that means other people here are considerably more powerless now. It's putting them all in a weakened position and you have to wonder if they're leading up into something with that. ]

But hey, nice to know they can just screw with our magic and whatever whenever they goddamn want. That's comforting.

[entreats]

I wouldn't put anything past this place. [ Considering the stuff she's already seen. ] And it must have figured having someone like you around means no cell would be left standing, so then there wouldn't be much of a point to this.

.. Assuming your magic is some kind of superstrength, that is.

[ Because.. come on. You can't look like that and not be able to crush just about everyone with one hand, right? ]

[oneagainstall]

Nah, that's just normally...me. Though I guess it ain't doing much right now, so maybe they can fuck with it. I don't got magic, not mine anyway.

[Which is pretty damn cryptic but he leaves it at that. ]

It's still bullshit.

[entreats]

[ Ange just nods a little without prying. Not like she has to know, anyway. ]

So they just made you less strong somehow. That's just more troubling. [ She seems to realise something as she says it though, and Ange sighs. ] Well, not like I didn't figure this place could mess with us any way it wanted, unfortunately.

[oneagainstall]

Given they cane make a fuckin' prison pop right the fuck out of nowhere, I'd say can do anything they damn well want at this point.

[He's Not A Fan.]
