Event: A Prelude
Who: Everyone!
When: Day 8, evening
Where: around
[It's a beautiful evening in the jungle tonight. It's warmer than usual, and some new plants have appeared, black vines that climb up the trees near the Aurora, opening hundreds of tiny white flowers that glow in the darkness. They let of a sweet smell that's soothing like a chamomile tea, and are filled with a dew that, if consumed, leaves characters feeling relaxed and just a little more likely to act on positive impulses.
However, the vines of this plant aren't so harmless. When broken they drip a milky white substance which irritates the skin, leaving red welts that burn and last anywhere from an hour to a full day, depending on how long the substance is in contact. Eating this won't kill you but it'll give you really intense heartburn and nausea for a few hours.
Additionally, if you're walking around in the nearby jungle, you might trip over one of the small cracks that have appeared in the forest floor. Mostly they're not visible underneath the grass and underbrush, but the bigger ones have caused a slight unevenness in the ground that can catch careless toes. There doesn't seem to be any particular pattern or origin to the cracks, nor do they have any other affect on their surroundings. They're just there, suddenly, in a roughly 100-foot radius from the train.
But there's plenty of reason to ignore these natural phenomenon, because there are some new teammates waking up in your carriages! In response to this new wave of arrivals, existing players will hear a cute jingling ringtone come from their Chain. Upon checking, the screen displays... a silly animation of balloons and confetti and the words "WELCOME NEW HEROES", which goes away on its own after a few seconds or when characters tap it. The same display is shown on the big screen in the lounge, in which trays full of colourful drinks have mysteriously appeared. The drinks taste like Kool-Aid and change some part of you the corresponding colour -- pink hair, blue skin, purple eyes, or maybe just a literal green thumb!]
[[OOC NOTE: Newbies can review the arrival scenario on the navigation page if necessary. The drinks in the lounge come in any colour you want, and cause colour shift in whatever and however large an area you want. It could just be a strand of hair or it could be your entire body, whatever you feel like playing with.]]

ginger
After that there's an elegant blond man sitting at the kitchen table drinking tea, who looks surprised and a little affronted for a moment before he smiles gracefully.]
Good evening. It seems I've got company.
[feel free to use this toplevel for team intros if you want to!]

Said window might be pretty high up and not designed for being sat in, or it might be the window your character is passing by within the train right now. He seems pretty comfortable, though.]

clover
Something she doesn't remember.
And with that, she's out of the bed in a flash, on all fours on the floor with grit teeth—nobody is in the room, though, and she calms down enough to look around.
It's a nice coloured place. But soon she's finding the door and cracking it open, narrowing her eyes as she peers out from behind it. When she comes out, it's a cautious sneak and...
...when she sees someone, she's immediately going into defence; backing up a few steps, teeth bared (including sharp incisors), and something that sounds like a growl coming from her throat. The unicorn onesie she's got on is at least hiding the two bright red horns on her head. For now. ]

Thyme
Ow, how did I even hit that?
[ If you choose to explore, you might find your new teammate trying to right a fallen chair while wearing a set demon of Thyme-colored pajamas The reason for the chaos should become immediately obvious, given the man's large black wings. ]
