1 - What is this feeling of power and drive I've never known? I feel alive!

[kingofswords]

[Have one slight bruised, exceedingly pale man. He adjusts his glasses and smiles politely at the camera, fully aware of himself unlike some newcomers.]

I seem to have gained access to a very strange forum without registering for it myself. Or perhaps I signed up during one of the recent days that I don't have good memories of. In either case, you all can call me Muraki. Are there any rules or other things I should be aware of before I explore further?

I don't think there are any particular rules.

[kingofswords]

That's good to know.

[number1112]

Mostly people just talk to others and get to know them.

I'm 11-12.

No one ever remembers signing up for this place.

[kingofswords]

That hardly makes sense. I have an excuse for several days being hazy, but I doubt a large group of people can be similarly forgetful.

[redlikecrimson]

No one here signed up to be on the community.

The rule is simple. Don't be stupid and you don't get shot.

[kingofswords]

Unfortunately, everyone has a different definition of "stupid".

[hasabulletforyou]

Mine is the right one.

Pleasure to meet you, Muraki. The community probably chose you as a new member, people rarely joins it on purpose.

[kingofswords]

You say that as if this group has intelligence.

[Video]

[notasinglelady]

It does. It's better explained here.

If you did sign up, you'd be the first from what I've been told.

[video]

[kingofswords]

I'm not sure I can believe that, even if you're not the first to tell me it.

[nie_unschuldig]

You'll believe it soon enough; there's an amount of random "accidental" posts that happen nearly daily to prove most people didn't intend to show up here. If you're lucky they just happen to everyone else and amuse you.

[drjackal]

Rules? I wasn't aware this place had any rules.

[kingofswords]

If a community doesn't have rules, what keeps the members acting civil to each other?

[schrodingersghost]

No one told me anything about them. Of course I've only been able to get on this place for about a week myself.

[kingofswords]

If you're that new, perhaps you should stick to learning more as well.

[schrodingersghost]

Touchy much?

Aside from viruses and oddities from a supposedly sentient but unidentified, uncharacterized central unit known as the community, there are a few very problematic community members. They're probably more dangerous than anything from the base community itself.

[kingofswords]

Thank you. Do you have any names for these members?

[sotobas_lot]

Kefka Palazzo seems to be the most dangerous in terms of power and psychological states.

A man named Shelly de Killer is a self professed assassin for hire. He's stated that he won't take part against anything supernatural, so I assume he is at least human.

Neither of them make themselves a secret, but due to the distance and a little friendly chatter or conversational politeness, most people tend to overlook if not entirely the fact that they're cold blooded killers.

There are probably others, but there seem to be factions and personal matters that dictate their actions, besides a Machiavellian sense of personal gain.


It probably seems like some chain letter or a game's introduction to you, but try to keep it in mind when you've been convinced of the more ridiculous truths of this thing.

[heavenlyhome]

Welcome to the community, Muraki-san. I do not believe there are any rules in particular, here, though there are common occurrences and oddities. Do you have any questions that have yet to be answered?

[kingofswords]

I believe the others have explained it well, even if it's hard to understand completely.
