(OPEN) COMMUNITY MESSAGE BOARD @ STARTER BASE

▶ WHO: Everyone!!
▶ DATE: July 9th 2015
▶ WARNINGS: none thus far
▶ SUMMARY: A place to share your ic infos, if you please! Thomas is a freaking busy body, and he wants to get all the clues about this place gathered up, so he's going to start writing stuff he's found/woke up with onto a wall in one of the labs, and leave notes around the compound for others to do the same.

[ in one of the lab rooms, you'll find a message (possibly with more messages) scrawled on one of the walls (literally ON TO it, with either pen or a marker). it reads: ]

[ because thomas is super good about being specific. and communicative. but basically, that's what he's posting here - notes. clues, useful information, curious things - information. the advantage the gladers had in getting out of the maze was that they were united, and cooperating for the same goal. thomas doesn't know anyone here, and only has maybe two pieces of what's a much larger puzzle. he needs the rest.

so, around the compound, you'll find scraps of paper that have been taped or pinned to walls (or written directly onto them) that read in the same handwriting: ]

SEE LAB ROOM [[ ROOM NUMBER HERE ]] FOR INFO

IF YOU FOUND SOMETHING, WRITE IT DOWN

[ again, he is awesome at being verbose. if your character decides to investigate the room, they'll find thomas's notes already pinned or written onto the wall, plus whatever is left in the comments below. thomas himself will likely be around more often than not, reading things, scrawling stuff of paper, looking contemplative, or being passed the fuck out in a corner, if they want to bug him. ]

[[ ooc; okay so thomas is a nut, and also i thought we could use an icly set up means for characters to share the clues they woke up with/stuff they found/whatever other information about stuff going down. if you want, put up a top level for the actual note your dude/dudette is leaving, and idk people can tag into it if they want to seek your character out and bug them? or write notes under the note you left? idefk, let's do stuff, go wild???

PS, IF YOU WANT THE TL;DR VERSION OF THIS, i tried organizing an IC list that Thomas would have made over here. It's not perfect, so don't consider that like end all be all, but thought it might help. ]]

- thomas

[ He doesn't know the relevance of this information yet, but doesn't want to withhold. So sometime when nobody is watching, he leaves a note: ]

I have a report card for a P. Alexander from Wallmount High. They were an As and Bs student.

[ Steve sticks the drawing he found in his room to the wall. Just a slip of paper with a drawing of a family of three - mom, little girl, and a third figure scratched out with black.

Underneath it he writes:

Found this when I woke up. Also heard something screaming. Not human. Couldn't find the source.

(This is a good idea.)

-- Cpt. Steve Rogers ]

[ A folder labelled "Gate Locations" pinned to the wall, with a single paper pinned next to it. The paper describes a compound in Maine, but is sparse on details.

Also, they look like they've been folded fifty times and jammed in someone's pocket. Sorry. No other notes/explanation given. ]

[On the most obnoxiously colored sticky note to be found in the compound, someone has copied down the following information:]

NAME: MONTGOMERY RIK
DOB: 11/11/1988
EYES: ???
HAIR: ???
PLACE OF BIRTH: CAZEMORIA

from an id
tell me where in the world is cazemoria?

[Unnecessary Carmen Sandiego reference not optional, of course.]

Woke up with: map, compass, bloodied weapon (not my blood).

Found in the Hollows:
-Weird grey egg???? It hasn't hatched yet but is definitely alive. Gonna keep an eye on it
-Dead bodies, not zombified, less than a week old

SHOPPING LIST:
-Medical supplies
-Non-perishable food
-Gas

If you're heading out, try to get useful things, who knows how long we're gonna be here.

Other notes:
We're in California, a few hours off the coast. [A state map is pinned next to the note.
I'm heading to Anaheim tomorrow, to check something out. If anyone has requests for things to bring back, write them below and I'll see what I can do.

--Batgirl.

I woke up with a piece of paper saying "black l pls"...
Black L please? I don't know what it means.

-Silk

I found this next to me when I woke up.

[There's a little arrow pointing from the word "this" to the nail.]

As well, I appear to have become the unwilling owner of a small pink bird. I should appreciate the assistance of anyone who knows the first thing about ornithology.

[ The subject line is written in red on a white piece of paper. It appears on July 10th 2015 ]

Looking for science types, ideally with lab experience handling hazardous materials but general knowledge is also fine, pay is zero dollars and a cookie (first come, first serving), preferably interested in solving mysteries and laughing at my jokes.

Hi, I’m Peter (the brunette). I woke up with a syringe full of unidentified liquid and will be examining it in the lab with the sign SYRINGE MEETING on the door tomorrow morning. Anyone and everyone welcome, even if you just want to observe, as there is obviously no application process. Of course, I’ll be sure to publish any findings for the curious here, too.

[ log here. ]

[ scrawled in messy handwriting, with a hot pink smartphone keeping it pinned down: ]

found this phone
battery's dead
yours if you want it

[ at the top of the note is a pegasus like the ones on the camp half blood shirts. the rest is written in sloppy ancient greek.]

Campers, Sign this, if you're here. I will check this, a lot. - Piper

[ the rest is written in english.]

Jason, if you're here. Sign here. I will check this a lot. I will find you. I found someone's bloody fork... If it's yours... Sign here?

i come from a place that's full of those things. the government, the cdc and everyone else got overrun. the military firebombed atlanta to the ground and then disappeared. it's pretty bad, but a group of us managed to survive for years and i figured i'd pass on some knowledge about the walkers/biters/rotters, whatever you want to call them. some of you might already know this, but maybe it'll help someone out there - you have to go for the head. nothing else is gonna work. don't even bother shooting them anywhere else because it's not going to help. knives are better than guns sometimes; they're quieter. push one against a fence or a wall and aim for the forehead. - if you get bitten, you might become one of them. back home, we saved my ( she starts writing 'my dad' and hastily crosses it out ) someone's life by cutting their leg off where they got bitten but i don't know if it'll always work - we never lit fires at night unless we were sure it was safe. i think they can see light and movement. it's hard to tell. - we think the ones back home could smell us, and that's how they always knew where we were. we smell...alive or something? some people in my group covered themselves in walker guts and managed to walk through an infested city. i don't know if it'll work here, but it's an idea any questions, write them down here and i'll be back to answer soon - beth

woke up with: - a bottle of pills without a label on them. they're pale yellow, those plastic capsule kind. i'm not sure what they are - a picture of a dog that looks like it's been burned a little around the edges. golden retriever.

woke up with:

- a camera
- a box of canned fruit

where are we putting food?

[Written in the neatest, most perfect cursive you have ever seen.]

I am in possession of a working motor car, should anyone wish to leave this compound.

--Lady Mary Crawley

((A blurry picture of ~~Bigfoot~~ some sort of animal is stuck to the wall, along with a piece of paper. Written on said paper in fancy cursive with way too many flourishes is:))

i found this in my blankets. have NO idea what the fuck it is.

[ a piece of paper with the above heading and a long, eclectic list beneath it. anyone is welcome to add to it. ]

After last night we know there are things out there. They're in my world too, or they were.

We call them:

Someone's mother.
Someone's son.
Someone's brother.
Someone's little girl.
~~Partially-de~~
Untreated.

Because, where I'm from, they got better. They found a treatment for it and the ones who were left when the war ended went home.

I don't know if that makes a difference. It's just something you should know before you shoot them in the head.

I found a business card. It's got map co-ordinates on the back? And a name on the front.

V.I.P.E.R.

We could try using it as a log in?

I don't know what use the co-ordinates are. Does anyone know where this is? I was in England the day before yesterday.

FORREST IS AN ASS, PASS IT ON

[ Who found crayons, and where? Who knows; the artist didn't sign their work or leave any comments. But they must be very proud of themselves. ]
