Virtua Island Information
Welcome to Virtua Islands
This is Dungeon Master's home and where you'll be participating in the games. The island is new and has only recently been discovered, well at least it's been thirty years since the islands were discovered by a married couple named Orpheus and Eurydice Salude those thirty years ago and then they suddenly vanished ten years ago. Dungeon Master lives there now though, and it's just a little bit of history on the Virtua Islands.
Participants will be starting on a smaller center island, called Vita Isle, the biggest island is Virtua Isle, and the medium sized island is known as Viral Isle. Each island has its own dangers and quirks but all islands are connected to the place where DM resides.
Vita Isle
Vita Isle is the least dangerous of the islands smaller than the other two islands but still big enough that the games will work on this island. Vita is very mountainous compared to the other two islands, being mostly mountain with spurts of forest scattered across the island, save one rather thick forest. There are several locations on Vita itself.
The Abandoned Hotel- A hotel on the northern side of the island that seems as if it's been left to rot since long before the 30 years the island became known to the public. It's interior is made up mostly of plant life and such now and the floors are very weak, thankfully the little hotel is only 3 stories tall and it's possible to explore it somewhat safely, as long as you're careful.
The Caves- starting from the center of the two main mountains are a pair of caves, one leading inside each mountain, the caves are winding and labyrinthine, and there are many exits but be careful following these paths as several could drop you to your death, so walk carefully.
The Beach- there is a single beach on this island, it's longer more than the strip of beach is thick, many little fairly harmless creatures can be found here, it's an ideal meeting place for the pairs, this is the least dangerous location on Vita.
The Deep Forest- This is the thickest forest on Vita and it allows very little light in, its dark and houses a few more harmful creatures than the rest of the island though they're still not likely to attack you unless threatened. Running through the middle of the forest is a river, and that river seems to disappear underground at some point, it's still there though because standing near the hole it vanishes into what sounds like a waterfall and the hole is just big enough to fall in if you're not careful.
The Underground River- as the name suggests this is an underground river, the river is connected to the Deep Forest, it runs under the entire Vita Isle and despite it being under ground is one of the biggest areas on the island, with dead ends, branching paths leading off the main river, and there are exits; few and far between though they are; that can bring you to the surface. Behind the waterfall is a small cave where at it's center is a strangely deep underground lake, above it is an opening that's connected to the caves, the fall is scary high being about 35 feet up, but if done correctly you can jump into the water below safely.
The Village - on Vita Isle there's a small abandoned village, although it seems very recently abandoned, the village sits on the outskirts of The Deep Forest, and despite how small it is seems to have supplies that can help travelers. Be wary staying here at night though for the ghosts of the suddenly deceased villages tend to roam and haunt anyone unlucky enough to stick around. Best survival tip for this area? Get your supplies and get out. Walking the opposite way of The Deep Forest you'll arrive at The Beach after traveling for a day or two away from the Village.
Virtua Island
Virtua Island is the most tech heavy Island, the most developed, a self sufficient city exists on this island known as Hurania City, there are bots and maybe even a person or two aside from DM that exists there. As a result there are stores for humans just as much as robots, each robot has its own AI as well and responds as if a real human, thus confusing most as they look human too. DM has had too much time alone to build all these things.
The rest of the island is under development, construction sites scattered all around the place. There is a town hidden in the trees and in this town is a dark and frightening underbelly of the beautiful islands. Yet each person has a microchip so DM must not be picky about their players, point in fact those running the under ground shows are often asked to do menial tasks by DM to stay safe as DM can disable a microchip from their home computer.
The last little town is a farming village on the island, it raises livestock, grows fruits and vegetables all year round, providing the food on the islands to those DM allows access to the islands. Yet still robots take care of many people in this little town, acting as nurse maids when finding someone injured, and are persistent in keeping their gardens safe, so if you accidentally trample anything the robots of the town will come for you and anyone you know, sometimes forcing DM to shut them down and restart.
Viral Island
This is the most dangerous island in the Trio of Virtua Islands, many poisonous, vicious, and heavily prey driven predators live here. There are also a number of poisonous plants and deadly swamps on this medium sized island. Even DM hasn't looked around this island much. She does have cameras set up on it though, although she made several of her handmade build bots do this. Not much is known about Viral Isle aside from the fact it is extremely dangerous, untamed, and wild.
