NOW THAT YOU'RE TRAPPED...paradisamodsNovember 14 2011, 18:21:11 UTC
The first thing they'll notice is that this place is weird.
There's an almost energized feeling to it, from the moment they enter the door. Anyone with powers or biological enhancements will feel those powers again... but still be unable to use them. It's like a stirring deep in one's belly, like there's the potential to use those powers, but no way to access them. Technology will flicker and come and go, like a car trying to start on an almost-dead battery. Good thing they have those crystals there to keep them going full-time.
But past that, look at where they are! It's just an open chamber with minimal decoration -- a few pillars, a few decorative busts, all collecting dust. The chamber leads to a tunnel, which is very tall and has a very high ceiling. This tunnel will go on a long way, passing through other chambers, some of them with underground streams running below the path. There are a few bridges -- old, stone, seemingly very sturdy, all of which match the bridges they'd been crossing outside. Good, right?
[Most would be concerned about being trapped in a ruin and trying to figure out where they are. But instead it looks like Allen stops to rub his head with his hand, as if he just received a migraine. Not only that, but there may have been a not so quiet growl from his stomach]
[He nods before he pulls off his backpack to set on the ground so he can dig out something]
I'm glad to hear it's not affecting everyone. It must only be affecting people with powers...something that...cancels out the effects of the Dead Zone.
[Keeps digging through is bag until he pulls out a satchel that has the words "EMERGENCY RATIONS" and starts digging through that]
I just hope it won't make things more difficult for everyone else here.

Guess a place like this would be killer on your allergies, huh? You okay?

I'm fine, it's just-
I can feel my powers again.

[ He's trying not to sound relieved. It's subconscious really. But more than anything, he's paying attention to Allen. ]
Are you gonna be okay? Do you need something to eat?

[He nods slightly]
I'll be all right. I have some emergency supplies and I rather not take everyone's food.

[ A glance around. He can tell a lot of people are feeling it. ]
At least this means we've obviously found something.

[Yeah powers kinda suck sometimes huh]
Mm...you were definitely right about this place.

I don't feel a thing. Weird.

Do you normally have any special abilities? Supernatural? Biotech?

We might be able to feel them, but I sure can't summon mine. So some of us are getting the drawbacks without the perks.
Maybe something's blocking the energy flow? If there's something here, it might be sealed.

[He'll quickly try to activate his own Innocence, but he frowns when he feels them being blocked and nothing happening]
What a nuisance! It's like it's intentionally making it more difficult for us!

[The last thing they need is someone being sick and not really having a good count of what supplies made it in with them.]
