Hello. I am Agent Sasha Nein. I am assuming I have been kidnapped, and that you know what is going on. |

You were kidnapped by a chick called the author. This is where she keeps us, unless she decides to dump us somewhere else for a week or two.

The Author? Explain please. |

Re: [Text]

[100deaths_a_day]

She's the one who brings us here. We're just her characters in a story - or so she thinks.

Re: [Text]

[truepsychictale]

I see. And how does she control the story?

[You have it about right. I wish I could give clear answers, but even those of us who've been trapped here for some time only know so much.

You're no longer in your own world; the grounds outside only go so far - if you were to explore them as well, you'd either end up transported back there, or running into the barrier at the boundary of this realm. As far as anyone can tell, it's a dimensional bubble under the control of a girl we only know as the Author.

[Well, it's a start...Now to see how crazy he gets called.]

That is not the oddest thing I have hear.

[Psychonauts well prep you for this.]

Well, in some ways, you're one of the lucky ones.

From some evidence of some of the past "plots"? She can't directly interact with this realm, and in fact, believes it - and all of us - to be fictional. My best guess is that she's got some kind of power she's unaware of. She doesn't seem malicious, but that unawareness makes her dangerous anyway.

[Like some Psychic Teen who thinks controlling animals doesn't hurt them.]

I see. Now, what can we do to survive this until we can possibly get out. Because I doubt everyone has been sitting around doing nothing.

I'd say kidnapped is definitely the word for it - I haven't seen anyone here yet that didn't look like they were another one of the people taken here, and some of them don't seem like they're easy to keep in a box.

Re: [Text]

[truepsychictale]

From what information I have skimmed, we're in a situation where we're being forced to play around.

[sunfromtheashes]

That's what it's looked like to me. I thought I had a few guesses, but I've already been here long enough that anything I'm familiar with -

Wouldn't be capable of this.

Re: [Text]

[truepsychictale]

Ditto on that in most cases, especially from where I was at when I arrived here.

I guess in a way we were brought here against our will, but unlike actual people who've been kidnapped the Author really let's us wonder this place freely.

Re: text;

[truepsychictale]

Kidnapping is kidnapping whether you get to wander around or not.

Re: text;

[cuteuketwin]

True, although usually they tie you up. Here we don't, so there are differences.

Re: text;

[truepsychictale]

Tied up or not, I don't like the situation.

[eliminatecrime]

This isn't a usual kind of kidnapping, but I suppose you could word it like that.
We've been brought into this world by a person called the Author. Our group consists of people from many different dimensions.

[truepsychictale]

Oh? Could you please tell me more?

[eliminatecrime]

There is no clue as of how the Author got her power and she does usually not talk to us directly, instead she contacts us through a speaking bunny. I am aware of how insane that sounds.

We assume her to be a teenage girl, judging by her tastes and the mentioning of 'learning for tests' in a message.
She can influence this world completely as well as our bodies and sometimes mind. We've already been body-switched and altered, forced to fall in love for a while or just transferred to other worlds, such as an island full of dinosaurs or a spaceship.

As for the residents, most seem to be from slightly varying alternates of planet earth, even though some come from other planets or dimensions that lack much similarity to earth.

[truepsychictale]

Ach. Well, this helps greatly actually. If we notice a trend with her psychology we can eventually predict events.
