The Premise:
You wake up in a strange place. No memories of your past life, not even your real name. You are alone, with only a blue sky and a green ground to keep you company. You wait, and wait, hoping someone will come and explain like in the movies. Maybe tell you you're trapped, yet you can walk anywhere you want. The ground is flat. The sky never cries.

Naturally, you start wishing for things. Food, water, shelter. The necessities at first. It all appears, everything you want becomes a reality. Nearly too good to be true, which it is. Everything you wish for is basically synthetic. If you wish for food, it is sustainable but has no distinct taste. If you wish for people, they aren't really PEOPLE. No emotions, no needs or wants... It becomes creepy, even boring. Maybe you even start becoming delusional, until the loneliness nearly consumes you. When this happens, a path opens up for you to meet the others. The others who have been here. For days, weeks... Maybe even years?

It's not perfect. It may be everything you wish, though it doesn't feel REAL. Additionally, strange things begin to happen. Why is that type of food there? You didn't wish for it. Why are some of your desires not being granted? Why are those synthetic humans randomly appearing? And turning into MONSTERS!?

@Darach Sounds like a good character! So you'd say her two biggest weaknesses would be arrogance and what else?

@RumikoOhara Awesome! It's not much of a strange question considering everybody lost their memories, but accepted!

@Mikanu
Is this starting when the characters first get to the place, or when they're consumed by lonliness?

@Inmento Riku I like your character, accepted!

@Framing A Moose It's starting when true loneliness occurs, that or boredom. An actual desire for companionship, or actual human interaction, rather than the synthetic humans that appear when simple, base companionship is desired. BUT, you can certainly give a little backstory of how your character reacted at first to the land.

@Mikanu Awesome :3 I am glad you liked him.

Was he accepted just as is, by that I mean just based off of the character sheet you provided, or was he accepted as he has been written as well as your character sheet? I'm mostly asking so that I can get a sense of where you want this to go, and to make sure I don't screw up when writing him.

@Inmento Riku I don't mind him as he was written, though that's most likely not going to be the main reason he lost his memory. I don't want to control ALL of the plot, but I don't want any characters to be "super special" than all the rest or whatever. I think it's completely fine that he has lived past lives, as it isn't exactly something you can godmod with as long as he doesn't remember like the history says. If you do end up godmodding with it, though, I'll give you a fair warning.

@Mikanu Alright, just wanted to be on the same page. Nope, he remembers nothing about any of his other lives. Since he's 18, the reset happened 3 years ago. If he needs to lose his memory again, let's go for it!

@ZeroL While your character IS very nice, you are supposed to place the finished character sheet here for approval. If you do so, to abide by the rules, I will accept you.

My bad. Here you go.

What Name Would You Like To Go By?: Kyle Augustus
What Do You Want Your Gender To Be?: Male
What Do You Think Your Age Is?: I think I'm eighteen or so.
What Is Your Biggest Strength?: I'm a good strategist, I'm good at math, and can figure stuff out.
What Are Two Of Your Weaknesses?: I have difficulty predicting people(even synthetic ones) and I have low tolerance for pain.
What Is Your Favorite Thing?: 74.367% cocoa dark chocolate. I did extensive testing with the wishes, but I got bored at the fourth decimal place.
