Into the Depths
Outside the town, there is a large, mysterious cave. It's become the subject of several urban legends - monsters, spirits, and what have you. One night, you go out with a group of friends, to finally take a look at what's in there, once and for all.

So what's in the cave? Clearly, a bunch of loose rocks. As everyone steps in, the rocks tumble down, causing a cave-in. The ground becomes unsteady and cracks, knocking some people out as the world fades to black.

When you finally come to, you find yourself sitting in a nearly pristine, white hallway, surrounded by everyone else. It branches off to the left, the right, and straight ahead. Looking up doesn't reveal much, other than a dislodged ceiling tile.

As confusing as this all seems, there are only two real questions at this point. What is this place, and how do you get out?

Gameplay
This RP is GMed, and will use a d10. 1 is the absolute worst roll, nearly guaranteed to fail, and 10 is the absolute best roll, which succeeds as close to perfect as possible. Rolls can be modified by your environment, your current ailments, what you're using, etc.

You may have only one character at a time, but as long as sign-ups are open, you may make as many as you wish. Sign-ups will be open for the most part, with very few exceptions (i.e, large battles). You may still apply while sign-ups are closed. If you are accepted, you will go on the waitlist, and you will be added into the game once sign-ups are open again.

I'll be posting turns when enough people have actions in, or when everyone in a certain group does their action. For example, if Suzy is far away from the Big Bad Boss, I don't need to wait for her to submit her action to update a turn. But if Alice is right next to it, I'll be waiting to make a turn for the BBB until she submits her action.

After spending who knows how long asleep, everyone wakes up, and finds themselves in a bright white hallway. Branching off to the left, right, and straight ahead, with some doors along each one, the hallway doesn't seem to have any significant markers.

You try looking around for a sign, a map, or something to tell you where you are, but you find nothing of the sort. Everyone around you seems to be confused as well.

With not a single person in sight, aside from your group, you're free to do just about whatever. You can try exploring the facility, or try to get out. So at this point, there is only one question.

What do you do?

"My head hurts," Gale groans, rubbing his temples and wincing. "What happened?"

Charles stares around from his position, prone on the floor, turning his head slightly before wincing. "Your guess is as good as mine." He sits up and looks around again. "Looks like a cave-in." He says, glancing at the pile of rocks that sit where the entrance used to be.

Dark

"Well...crap." Gale mutters, heading over to the rock pile. "You want to help me try and move these?"
Date registered: Apr 17, 2013, 06:27:41 AM

Dino

"Sure. Not sure if it'll be much help though." Charles replies, wincing and rubbing the back of his head as he stands up.

Dark

Gale chooses a rock at random and sets his hands underneath it, waiting until Charles is in position before attempting to lift it.

Dino

Charles staggers a few steps before taking a deep breath and walking normally to Gale. He puts his hands around the rock that Gale is touching. "3. 2. 1." He quickly pulls the rock to the side.

Faressain

I decided to help, despite not being so muscular, by trying to lift smaller rocks. Maybe this would be useful.
