"It's said that spirits dwell in objects into which people put their feelings. I've always thought that, if that's true, then the same must be true of artwork. So today, I shall immerse myself in work, so as to impart my own spirit into my creations." ~ Guertena Weiss
Guertena's final painting was a portrait of himself, one last great work. He was terminal ill and he had a irrevocable fear of dying and being forgotten forever. He worked night and day, immersing himself into his work; hoping that when he was done some part of his soul would be imparted into his creation. But before he could successfully finish his masterpiece he died of his illness. The painting was taken to the Art Gallery and displayed as the artists last painting even though it remained unfinished. Many would think that Guertena's plan to live through his artwork would have failed seeing as it was never finished but this would be false thought. For his feelings were so great and so strong that some of his soul did indeed become part of the painting itself. But, since the painting was incomplete, it felt unfinished, like a piecing was missing. It gained control of the painted world, proclaiming themselves the King of that world, raising a great maze. But still there was something missing. And so, watching through the window that was his painting, The Blue Rose King gazed out at the real world; waiting and watching until those he felt were adequate enough to "complete him" came along. Then, yes then, he would draw them into his Fabricated World...and take their soul.
Hello there ^^ So, this is based off of the RPG Maker game called "Ib". It's my favorite game in the world and it's free to play and download so I highly recommend it. Anyhoo, knowledge of the game is not required though it is encouraged. The premise is a group of teenagers that had gone to Guertena's art gallery get trapped in an alternative version. In there, the door is locked and the windows do not open. There is no cell phone reception and it is completely empty of life except for the artwork. There will be puzzles to solve at times.
One thing to note: The players will be trapped in one level at a time. I will make a post stating what the rooms look like, the type of puzzle if there is one, and also what artwork they may find there. The players can not move on until I say so. They are free to wander around the level but they can not leave until the puzzle is solved or the way out appears. As they make their way through the levels, they make their way closer to The King. Every action is bound to have a consequence so be careful what you touch and where you wander~
Spots are still open! OOC
