This isn't quite a sequel, nor is it truly a continuation (as I never participated in the original). I simply liked the idea, and think it'd be neat to continue/restart/reimagine.

The posts that follow chronicle the adventures of a group of humans on an Earth nearly identical to our own. While I am uncertain as to their ultimate fate, I know that it should be entertaining, so long as this muse keeps whispering their adventures into my ear (at the threat of madness and death, should I not comply with Her demands) ((not to disrespect Her)). On this paralell Earth, for whatever reason, a group of ordinary members of RoleplayerGuild.com found themselves, after applying to a certain RP, sucked through their computer. Their bodies are no longer their own. Their forms have changed - some aren't even human. Instead, they have been transformed into a creature based off of (however loosely or directly) ((not that that's a problem, oh Muse)), their Username, Avatar*, or Profile Picture.

Once inside their computer, these people find themselves on an open plain. Bits of code flash through the crackling blue air from one direction to another; neat little green packets of informoation lase to their destination. A voice from the aether - more heard within their minds than their ears - explains the situation. They are caught in the multiverse. Some time ago a similar group of adventurers appeared ("fell from the sky" are the exact words that the voice uses), on a quest to unite an artifact called the Crucible. The artifact is responsible for their plight; but it was scattered across the worlds. The last group of adventurers managed to capture all but one piece of the Crucible before they (and the changes they had wrought across the multiverse) mysteriously vanished. Now it's up to this new group to find the Crucible and/or the former adventurers, so they can return home.

Then, without a second for thought, the intrepid band of humans fall from the sky and land in a charred, scorched plain. The sun is rising over majestic purple mountain peaks, covered with a noble cap of snow. Streamers of windblown snow trail off like a woman waving her scarf at a departing lover. 

The scene is, however, horrendous. The earth, the trees, the very rock face of the mountain lies scorched and burnt. Feeble plants poke through the ash and soot in between the piles of armor and weapons, laying around as if their diminutive owners simply crumbled to ash. Dogs and cats picked though the debris, hunting small vermin. A nearly completed 80 foot long statue of gecko lies scorched, half complete. The feeble remnants of a river slosh out of a hole in the mountain and underneath a stone bridge. A gate stands, covered in blood, carved into the rock face, not-quite closed. An elephant's trumpet sounds in the distance.

Shorter, less in-character version of the premise: You are your avatar*, signature, or username. We'll journey across from one realm to the next in a [i]Kingdom Hearts[/i] style Roleplay, solving one central problem in each world, chasing after the original roleplayers and trying to find the plot MacGuffin (the Crucible). Along the way, we may meet characters of such high reputation that they have been granted near-deity like powers. For example, Batman, God of Crazy-Preparedness - who may give us seemingly useless but actually incredibly and specifically useful bat-themed items. Or who may teach your character how to unlock some part of their potential.

Along the way, you may gradually become more and more like your character in personality. Or not.
