DAY 0 - Morning

[islandiastaff]

[Good morning, contestants!

One moment, you were receiving a mysterious envelope marked "Greetings from Islandia". The next moment, you're waking up on a beach.

Twenty-four people are scattered across the sands of a beautiful tropical beach, all somewhere in the middle of waking up. To your right, a sunrise over a gentle sea. To your left, dense, vibrant jungle.

There are two signs of civilization here! One is a shipwreck, about half of a good-sized ship emerging morosely from the waves. The other is a wooden sign at the edge of the jungle, showing simply an arrow pointing deeper into the island. Looking a bit closer, there is a narrow but well-maintained path into the jungle.

Welcome to Islandia!]

... Probably true! Not like I go outta my way to meet birds.

But anyways, if there's a fake shipwreck, that probably means this isn't that dangerous a situation.

[exfired]

Uh... [that's kind of the opposite from what HE figured...] What makes you say that?

[teethteethteeth]

Well, I could be wrong, but it reminds me of a movie set or something.

[exfired]

I think most extras in movies aren't brought in by force, though.

[teethteethteeth]

It could be some kind of surprise TV thing. Like candid camera stuff but with kidnapping. Though they've got real resources if they can block off my true body.

[exfired]

I'm not sure "candid camera but with kidnapping" is something I'd call "not dangerous", man.

[teethteethteeth]

You're right, I was just looking on the brighter side.

[exfired]

Hey, ain't nothing wrong with that. I'm just one of those downer types sometimes, y'know?
