The video crackles with static, followed by a strange video overlay. Videos captured from retro games pass by each other in their full-screen form, the sprite and pixel glory there for all to see.
A few seconds later...
In all caps, and in the green retro pixel art, the word "SPEEDRUN" appears, with an appropriately exciting musical tone.
"Testing, one, two, three," a voice that mixes feminine grace and light masculine tones speaks out. The editing of the video disappears, to reveal the face of a girl, though one could find it not that difficult to identify the girl's face as a boy. A quick look at her chest area shatters that illusion, however.
She seems to handle something behind the camera, mumbling a few words about camera quality and such. No other noises seem obvious, as the video only records the back of the empty inn room she's standing in. The strangest sounds, however, come from a few tiny squeaks that sound animal-like, though it's impossible to figure out its source.
With a self-satisfied grin, she steps back and gestures a thumbs up into the video, winking.
"My name's Lilias. Well, some of you know me already. I used to raid with Exemplary. I was their main tank for a year, until we all went our separate ways."
Lilias held her tongue about the circumstances. 'Raid leader caught hacking into government mainframe' was not wise to mention, especially when the lawyers told her the words 'innocent until proven guilty'. That thought showed up in the video as a stiff gulp of saliva, though only the attentive watchers would have noticed.
"I'm making this little Let's Play group called SpeedRun. It won't all be about raiding, though. I want people of the spectrum! Though admittedly, I would only be needing..."
She tapped her index fingers upon her other hand, as if gesturing to count.
"4 people. We'll have fun, record stuff and post it online! Do apply!"
I got bored and typed this out. Man, it's tricky making an MMO world. How much detail should I have?
