Chapter 03: Act I

The Little Mermaid: Act I—





§ instructions.

The first Act of our third campaign is underway! This is the designated log for all Main Scenes. Others are free to create their own toplevels for the Sub Quests, which are detailed below. Each Main Scene has their own unique toplevel and those cast into the roles are to thread their scene under each. All scene instructions are provided in the toplevels. There are also toplevels for each Sub Quest this time around, but players are more than welcome to create their own individual toplevel if they have something else in mind they would like to do.

As a reminder, characters will find similar information and instructions within their journals so they won't go in blind. Also to note, all characters will have all their belongings within them as well as the additional supplies provided to them by the Storyteller. As you know, everyone has undergone a special "mermaid" transformation upon arriving into the Book, but do note: characters in Main Scenes will have a second wardrobe change while acting the scene. Their merform will stay the same, but they'll have additional bits to add to their role. Outfits will be provided in the prompts themselves, and these outfits will only be in affect during the scene. The moment they leave the setting area, they return to their other wardrobe.

Finally, just to be clear, characters who are in Main Scenes are not immediately dropped in to their location and will have to travel to the "setting location" and then return. Threading all of that isn't necessary, but it's to help give a better idea that characters can take a break between scenes or wait a bit to help with other things like the Sub Quests.

Feel free to refer to the Game Notes for more detailed info as well as ask questions or clarifications.

Won't it be hard to hold onto if the currents are too strong, though? Or get stuck if the space gets narrow?

[Plus she REALLY doesn't like the idea of accidentally cutting or stabbing herself.]

Having something pointed can help cut the current.

[Though he's not sure if the spear will help all that much. He just really thinks Kotori needs something.]

And it's a stick. If the space gets too narrow for it, it's too narrow for you.
ricebird: (I dunno...)

[It's not so much narrowness but tight bends-- okay, maybe Eizen has a point that she's worrying too much. If the spear can't get through, she drops it.]

Okay... I guess wish me luck...
deadmentellnotails: (I Know)

I'll pass. Might curse you instead.

[But she has this. He has faith.]
ricebird: (Shinobu...)

Ahaha... Right...

[At least she has the Stick of Doom? Right, okay... deep breath... and farther into the tunnel she goes. So far it's just dark, but for a little ways, Eizen might still be able to watch her enter the darker passage.]

[And Eizen just starts humming some old sailing song either to calm Kotori or keep himself occupied. Hard to tell.

He's a pirate. They do that.]
