Intro Log

Who: Everyone!
What: Your first magical day
Where: Progress City Tranport Center
When: Right now
Warnings: None planned!



[Today you found a ticket to a theme park. It seems relatively normal, except that it reads: Lifetime Parkhopper Pass to Progress City. ”The Most Magical Pocket Dimension in the Multiverse!” This is not a theme park you have ever heard of, if you live in a world where theme parks are of the norm.

For some reason you’re drawn to the ticket. There’s something… magical in this piece of paper, and you can practically hear it calling out to you, and you feel compelled to pick it up. It’s strange, but it’s a piece of paper, what’s the worst that could happen?

However, the moment you pick it up, you feel yourself being pulled. There is nothing pulling you but there is an overwhelming sensation that something is pulling you by the chest into the ground. You don’t have time to process what’s going on before you suddenly fall over, the strange feeling going away the moment you hit the ground.

It takes a few moments for you to regain your bearings, but as you look up you are suddenly hit with the fact that, wherever you were before, you certainly aren’t there anymore. It appears to be a transport station of some sort, and a very sleek and new one at that. Monorails pass by the station every couple of minutes, with small, slower moving vehicles consistently move in and out of the center.

The innermost wall, right behind where you stand, is lined with portals. It appears that you came in through this portal, but if you try to go back the way you came in, you’ll find that you are unable to enter it, no matter how hard you try.

While the realization that you are now trapped in this strange place, you will soon find that you also have a strange band strapped to your dominant wrist. No matter how hard you try to take it off, it seems like it’s stuck on there.

At least you’re not alone, along with a bunch of other people who arrived around the same time you did, there are humanoid people who seemed to be intrigued by your arrival. They’re all generally nice, but get confused if you ask them why you’re here and why you can’t leave. They will, however, happily tell you the name of the place you’re in if you ask:

Progress City.]

I have few questions!

[hey rod it's the goat who mcfreaking up and died in the middle of dismaland]

How'd you manage to bring me back? I thought that was impossible or something? Also what happens if people die in this dimension? [Quiet gasp] Is there a mini-Elysium?

... Would you believe me if I said "I'm not sure" to the first question?

[Help]

But we have been trying to find a way to keep people from dying once they enter the city. Death in a theme park is very bad for PR after all.

I guess so. I mean the whole blood ritual then was pretty weird with magic rules. [shrug]

Nnnot to bring up bad memories. But at least it doesn't seem to be one of those games, so it's infinitely a lot better already!

I'm thankful for that, at least. This city isn't exactly my "aesthetic", per se, but we're trying to promote a positive atmosphere.

Hmm...Not really related to the subject, but you know, I've always been sort of interested in that Terror Tower since seeing it in the box. Never got a chance to get inside the thing.

[listen, he may or may not have taken interest when mr. rod serling's voodoo doll was the first regain he had,]

Is it still around?

[His eyes practically light up at the mention of his tower.]

You mean the Tower of Terror? We have an updated version over in Hollywood Studios that I'm particularly proud of. We changed the exterior a little bit and changed the ride system so that the drops are randomized now.

While it's not the exact same as the old ride, I feel it's best to not cling on too desperately to the past.
