SCENARIOS

01. Arrival

You have been sitting and staring at the sign above you for some time now, lost in a blur of swirling questions that seems to start with how you ended up there; in a place (and time, maybe) that you know you weren't an hour earlier. Or maybe you're an old hand at this by now and you've figured out that this is simply another stop that the multiverse bus has made. So why not get off and look around a little?

At any rate, the sign points you towards the direction of a place called "Gazin", which looks like a decent-sized town from where you stand. There has to be someone who can explain.

02. Around Town

So, you've settled in. Well, mostly. At least you know where things are without taking too many wrong turns and ending up in the less desirable areas of town. But now you can go about your day. Visit the market, check out the local shops or have a drink with a new friend at one of several inns.

03. Exploring

You've heard people talk about some pretty interesting places and now you're itching to get out and find them. Be careful though, there are creatures and monsters out there that will be pretty interested in meeting you and may wish to have you for its next meal. Better take someone along. And maybe some weapons, too. Make sure one is made of silver.

04. Monsters

So, you managed to find that location you were looking for. Good for you! Only.. it seems you've also found one of the native creatures to the area and you now face to face with it. Um. Good luck! We'll see you when you get back!

Hopefully.

05. Celebration

It won't take long for you to figure out that people of Gazin are, all in all, pretty happy people. It shows, too, when a seemingly quiet evening suddenly bursts into a random, impromptu party to celebrate whatever good fortune has touched a person. Name Days, good harvests, betrothals, weddings, or just life in general.

Sing, dance, drink and be happy, too!

06. Wild Card!

Cassandra is just outside the town, having been making her way on foot into the forest to do a little more exploring. And surrounding herself with nature; somewhere along the way she’d embraced inherent nature goddess slant of her powers with her whole being. She hadn’t really been able to properly immerse herself in nature in the City. Not like this, not like she can here.

Her attention is almost immediately drawn by the tall, threatening figure stalking towards Gazin with an axe in hand. New arrival? Disgruntled local? She’s not entirely certain, but she’s leaning towards new arrival. His style of dress, his manner, doesn’t fit with what she’s seen of this world so far. Although he could be local, just newly arrived from a great distance away. She’s not learned nearly enough of this world to make a snap judgement on that.

Regardless, she steps firmly into his path, blue-grey eyes calm but just a little challenging. A little of the Lady de Rolo showing through. If nothing else, she can waylay him if he’s itching for a fight. “You wouldn’t be intending on using that on anyone in town, would you?” Despite the question her accented voice sounds perfectly friendly.

Viking women, shieldmaiden's especially, don't normally stop the men that they know from demanding answers by way of threat when the situation warrants it. They have done the same, after all. So, when Ubbe is stopped, he gives a little smirk and steps back, looking her over because there is something in her posture that reminds him of his wife's wild spirit.

"If I have to," Blue eyes sparkle with the same kind of mischief his fathers did years back. "Are you planning to stop me?"

And now there's something in his posture that is letting the woman know that he has no problem fighting a woman.

Cassandra smirks right back at him, chin lifted in challenge. Try her, sir. Just try her. “If I have to,” she echoes back. She cannot miss that something in his posture, but she seems perfectly unconcerned with the fact that he has no problem fighting a woman. She remains right where she is. In his path. Stopping him.

“You’ll find you’ll have much better luck getting answers for your questions if you just ask.”
