*The car seems to be scratched and dinged by the branch, but otherwise in good condition while the robot appears identical to the flare from before*
Should we go back and ask?

@Legend Begins

I… Maybe later if you want. It might still also be a flare?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

It seems that way.
*The device steps out onto the now-fallen branch and turns back into its condensed form*
Do you think it was on purpose?

@Legend Begins

Hard to say.
*Walks back up to the car and does a lap around it, glancing it up and down before stopping and squatting next to the little robot*
I’m a fan of it being non-flammable though.

*After a high-pitched whirring noise, the branch splits down the center*
Are you being sarcastic? It's hard to tell sometimes.

@Legend Begins

A little bit.
*Steps out from behind the tree again*
Did that guy actually give us something totally different than he said?

The mushrooms in this forest must be toxic. I'm seeing things.

@Legend Begins

Yeah. The dude who had gizmos out the wazoo definitely didn’t just give us a walking gadget like we saw all over the city.

*One by one, spindly mechanical legs pop out of the device and it crawls deeper into the vehicle*

@Legend Begins

*Looks at you*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Eventually reaches you, and the flare still hasn't gone off*
...Misfire?

@Legend Begins

Wait…

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadrack Nor>

Yeah, sounds good to me. If you want to go the tavern route, he could find some mysterious door on the planet that he wanders through to find himself in that inter-dimensional world. Sounds like that might be the easiest, unless your heart is set on doing something on Mars.

@Legend Begins

This also works. 8P

There are definitely justifiable ways for some characters to end up in a situation where they would meet your character on Mars, I’d say. It’s just a matter of whether they’re tied in to other current goings-on or not.

I wouldn’t worry about trying to pick up on lore immediately and readily. As you can see, we have many many pages and move at a pretty rapid pace due to speed posting. There would be a lot to read, and many of us use multiple accounts with changing avatars and profile info to match whatever character is featured on that profile at the time. So picking up the character who might have been on my current account at any point in the past, for example, is an incredibly tall ask. We’ll help you out in understanding anything you might need if it comes up.

As you wrote your character to be new to the multiverse and traversing it as it stands, it might actually be easier for someone to come to you.

Ready?
*Presses down on the flare and runs toward the tree line*

@Legend Begins

*Steps partially behind the nearest tree and watches*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Walks over by the branch and tries to figure out where to best place it*

@Legend Begins

*Takes a few more steps back and to the side, nearer to the treeline*
