INTRO LOG
Week Zero

The transition from unconsciousness to the waking world is practically seamless. Though you're certain this wasn't where you meant to end up, for a few brief moments it's hard to grasp the situation and take in your surroundings.
A soft twilight lights your way, casting a glow over the sprawling village that fans out around you. Just outside of the large meeting hall you'll find yourself awakening among several others who have found themselves in this place. There's a sense of peace that looms over the area, the only sounds being the cheerful chirp of a stray bird or two and the babbling brook that runs through the village itself.
Stand up, dust yourself off and set out. There are plenty of places to explore and should you venture far enough you'll even find several little houses throughout the village. It may take some time, but as you check out each house you'll soon come across something that belongs to you...along with something that doesn't. It seems that this new residence is yours to share. As for the village itself, the other buildings appear open and well-stocked, providing you with a variety of amenities to utilize. The paths leading out of the village, however, are guarded by four ornate wooden gates. No matter how hard you try, they will not let you past. It seems that the time isn't right yet.
Speaking of, the only way to truly track the passage of time is by charting the movements of the sun but that can prove to be quite difficult as well. As the sun dips below the horizon and the night sky fills with stars, the bell at the shrine rings out to signal the end of your first day. No one else has arrived. It's only you and these strangers for now.
It seems as though you'll have plenty of time to get acquainted with your fellow companions. Make yourself comfortable; when the time is right, answers will appear.
Welcome to the soft intro of Subdivided! This is your intro mingle and the current conditions will last through the weekend until Monday, June 3rd at which point the weekly log will go up. Your characters will not know anything about the partner system, how powers work or any plot-relevant information until Monday. However, characters are free to discover their power through trial and error and will have access to their item from home immediately.
Please note that an additional top-level to introduce NPCs and Game Mechanics will go up on Sunday, 4 PM EST.

main meeting hall
[Of course it is. It's a talking bird. This place isn't real.]
What was the last game like!?
no subject
The- the last game I played?
[misunderstanding ahoy]
Eh, well, there was this group of skyfarers, and a dragon, and a lot of guild stuff...
[it's Gran
bluecoo Fantasy]no subject
Uhh... Are you a skyfarer?
[Maybe it's a name for talking birds.]
no subject
[this is more complicated than he imagined]
Besides, I just went by "Kazu" there. You shouldn't use your real name in games!
no subject
[The conversation with this bird is very confusing. But he's a bird, so it should be expected.]
Were you always a bird then?
no subject
no subject
[He hasn't encountered talking animals that were just animals and not some kind of demons or spirits.]
no subject
[bird school, which is for birds]
The rate at which bird species started gaining intelligence varied? Most pigeons can. Quails can. Cockatiels and parrots... There's a shoebill somewhere in the government.
no subject
[He doesn't know what a shoebill is, so he's just imagines Kazuaki in a suit and tie at a podium. Birds as a species have lived for far longer than humans and they probably have some good ideas.]
Do you each have your own bird languages or do you all understand each other?
no subject
no subject
With a beak, how can you make some of the human sounds!? Like... that seems impossible?
no subject
[Don't Worry About It, don't look too carefully at his beak, just accept the bird language]
no subject
[Well, tengu didn't have a problem, and some of them had beaks, so... it makes sense a regular bird can form human sounds too, maybe?]
I don't know! I guess it doesn't matter~!
no subject
To be honest, this is the most humans I've seen... like, ever!
no subject
[Toki now wonders if the world had been taken over by birds in Kauzaki's dimension or whatever; like Planet of the Apes maybe. Only birds. He can believe that; humans destroy things.]
You're the first talking bird I've met! Like actual bird and not a bird-god-spirit thing!
