My Very Brief Bio

Male, 31 years old. (So I'm practically dead, as we speak.)

Likes (other than writing and roleplaying): I'm into all genres of music. I love to cook. I love the outdoors, and walking through the park near my house. (Yes, really.) I read a lot of thriller/mystery novels. And I usually watch seasonal anime. (Or cooking shows. Because Western Media provides even fewer things that are worth watching.)

But as for my many other neglected hobbies, I've played basically every sport. (Soccer and Bowling being my favorite of the bunch.) And I'm trying to play more video games. (Going through my never-ending Steam library.) Plus, I've dabbled in making electronic & metal music, and I used to play a number of instruments. (Guitar, French Horn, etc.)

Writing, What That?

"Please move...”

Ravi’s thrashing movements were noticeable from underneath the blanket. Dreaming that everything besides his quivering tongue was immobilized and unable to flee the approaching flames. In reality, the nightmare had him scooched closer to the fire and contorted his body into a pretzel knot. Instantly undone as he was startled awake by a sudden noise and flash of intense heat. As a tiny spark erupted out after the log was dropped in, landing dangerously close to his tail that was poking out of the covers. Was he being attacked!? Eyes open as he sprung into action, making a scary face with a gaping maw ready to unleash a powerful hiss that instead sputtered into a silent sigh.

...Oh — it was only the adults wandering through the barn. His posture quickly relaxed as he looked around at his teammates with a smile, relieved that he hadn’t stirred them from their slumber. He wasn’t that much larger than they were, but he still found their tiny sleeping bodies precious to behold. Helping him pull some positive thoughts out for a pep talk. “Another wonderful day to be alive! Time to go make myself useful to my providers and companions! I can do whatever I put my mind to!”

But the adults seemed so busy that he didn’t wish to interrupt them by asking if they wanted help with anything. So he conquered that nagging feeling by slithering by and politely greeting each member as they woke up. “Morning,” followed by their name, “sleep well?” He didn’t care if the recipient was too drowsy to respond, as long as he shared his happy vibes. Interrupted by the smell of food getting brought to them, likely waking up the ones lagging behind. Impossible to have any expectations, since he didn’t eat last night, the food provided appeared perfectly sufficient to his eyes. Strongly deciding yesterday that it wouldn’t benefit him to be too gluttonous in the wild during uncertain conditions. His stomach would grow accustom to the amounts of food he was digesting and divide the energy accordingly. But eating when he wasn’t strictly hungry, caused two setbacks. First, his body got sluggish and he needed to stay speedy. The second was falsely prepping himself to expend more than what he’d normally take in. Seraph explaining that they planned to train them outside in the rain, as he enjoyed his breakfast, slurping down the bowl and swallowing the toast whole.

"An excellent idea. Maybe I'll offer to help Honey forage for supplies." Ravi thought.

Then Seraph went on to describe a Hidden Power, that unlike those that knew the games better, it was a concept that sounded completely foreign to him. But a leader wasn’t supposed to act clueless. So he carefully considered what should be asked about this move, without saying a stupid question. Perhaps, it would be beneficial to let the others speak up, so he could listen intently and piece together assumptions from the information. Though her advice to empty the mind and focus, contradicted his plan to cram it all in his head. So that’s what he did, imagining an orb to pop out of his forehead…how grotesque. What element would best synchronize with his abilities and prolong his survival? Surely, the most vital tool to a Seviper was having powerful venom and poison would be the inevitable answer.
I was planning on going after a few other responses, since my IC character doesn't know anything and would likely wait for others to ask the questions.
I do have a direction, but I tend to let things flow fairly easily. It's a bit late. But tomorrow, I'll offer you some options and maybe some extra background information. (I'll edit this and give you some details and potential paths.)

Edit: Alright, so there's several paths that can be taken. But first, if it hasn't been made obvious, Raargorgathan is hiding pertinent information from the two characters.

Also, for something he's flying all by himself, the internal ship seems large for the sole purpose of solo-travel. Enough for plenty of other ships to be docked and bedrooms for others.) It also seems to have boundless supplies. He hasn't mentioned any kind of crew. So what exactly was he doing, before they crashed into each other?

Assuming the robot will follow him back into the ship. He'll go back into the control room and strap her in, allowing her to analyze a fuel container that will a the complicated mix of ingredients. Something that might be unrecognizable. Afterward he'll seem to be getting a little tired and yawn, likely insisting that Bri goes to a room and wait for Ali to wake up. As he planned to get some rest himself, as he hadn't slept in quite some time now. Then they can discuss other matters and plan for prolonged survival. (And I can edit my original post with that information, so you'll have added context.)

Bri (and/or Ali) can proceed in these ways.
1. Continue to follow Raargorgathan's requests unquestioningly.
2. Confront and question him about their surroundings.
3. Actively try to leave and figure out what's causing the phenomenon on their own.
4. Stay aboard to explore the ship. (And/or) further inspect all of his supplies.

(And I promise each should lead to something different and interesting. I hope. :3)

Just let me know if there's any brainstorming that we need to do.
