The MazeYou

The Maze

You are lying in bed, but you cannot will your eyes to close. No matter how hard you try, you cannot fall asleep. You hear something in the backyard, so you go downstairs to investigate. You step outside to find a fern, with a note embedded between two leaves. This is the CB, so you do not question this at all, instead you get the letter out of the fern. You open the letter. This might just be the best mistake of your life.

CBer,

I invite you to join me for a stay at my Maze Resort. This brand new resort boasts a pool and spa, luxury, treehouse, and mystery lodges, a teleporter, free popcorn, and many, many other features. Of course, the main event is the maze. When you are wandering the maze, you may feel as if time does not exist. It is a strange but riveting place, and you will find creatures you never imagined could be real. Sometimes, however, this maze can be dangerous. There have been numerous accounts of people going missing or insane while trying to find a way out. But do not worry, CBer, for I will do everything in my power to keep you safe. I am not, however, saying that I am responsible for any... accidents that may occur. Now please, accept my invitation. Any responses that occur after the 20th of July will not be granted access to the resort. On a lasting note, AEs and CAPTCHAS are also allowed to come, as are CaptchAEs. 

Best regards,

Lady of the Maze

I'd love to join! This sounds very interesting. I'll be bringing my AE, "Thirty", if you don't mind.

Here is the sheet-

Name- Icy

Appearance- She has short blonde hair and paper-pale skin. She is very short and freckled. She usually wears some sort of fancy shirt and plain jeans.

Personality- She acts shy to keep herself from being awkward, and is often very nervous. She tries to put distance between her and other people, but if she does make friends, she is very loyal to them and open with them.

Gender- Female

CBer, AE, or CaptchAE- CBer

Luxury, Treehouse, or Mystery lodge? Mystery lodge.

Quirks- She loves solving mysteries, but often jumps to conclusions. She is very crazy about being modest, and will not wear shorts or a tank top (I know, I'm crazy).

Strengths- She has ice mage magic (ice magic that involves casting spells instead of *points* *Ice appears*). She loves solving mysteries.

Weaknesses- She's small, not very physically strong, and her ice mage magic saps her energy (she's bad at using it, as well).

What you are bringing (no weapons allowed)- Several changes of clothes, a notebook, a pencil, a pencil sharpener, and NO SHOES.

Other- Potatoes are delicious.

Thirty's sheet--

Here is the sheet-

Name- Narrator Thirty-three (but goes by Thirty or N33)

Appearance- Narrator Thirty-three wears a plain white blouse and a medium-length gray skirt. She has thick brown hair that is always in a neat bun. Her skin tone is average but bordering on pale from time spent inside. Her height is slightly taller than average, but not really noticeable.

However, she does have odd, lavender-colored eyes that are soft and piercing all at once, depending on your perspective.

Personality- Acts very neutral, generally wise (though very lacking in wisdom when it comes to emotional matters), slightly cold when talking to others, only shows hints of emotion when narrating. She works hard to keep her emotionless behavior, but really depends on having an audience and will sulk when things don't go her way.

Gender- Female

CBer, AE, or CaptchAE- AE

Luxury, Treehouse, or Mystery lodge? Oh, the treehouse. It seems to be such a good place...

Quirks- She has a habit of narrating what is around her. 

Strengths- She is older than most here, and taller.

Weaknesses- She is easily offended and holds grudges.

What you are bringing (no weapons allowed)-Clothes, scripts, fairy tale books, Grimm's Fairy Tales, and a DVD of Into The Woods.

Other- N/A

Ooh, sounds fun!

Name: Cassandra the First (You can call me Cassandra)

Appearance: Dark brown hair in a braid, black, almond-shaped eyes, average skin tone, tall-ish for my age (I'm 12)

Personality: Nice, relatively cheerful, very school smart, but not that street smart, kind of awkward and shy-ish when meeting people for the first time, very imaginative and has lots of ideas, I love to be a leader but am sometimes too scared to do so, when I'm very angry I start yelling at people and get slightly violent

Gender: Female

CBer

Hmm... Luxury, probably.

Quirks: I don't know!

Strengths: Writing, imagining, school-smart skills, hiding/not being noticed, listening (not being a motormouth), when things are really desperate I can provide some humor to lighten it up, though I don't do it often, 

Weaknesses: Flexibility, art, being a successful leader

Packing List: Toiletries, clothes, notebooks and pencil case (that has pencils, colorful pens, sticky notes, a ruler, white-out, two compasses (one is the navigational kind and the other is the math kind), erasers, and an expensive TI-Nspire graphing calculator), snacks, jump rope, flashlight, water bottle, 

~~~

Name: Coral of the Sea (Call me Coral!)

Appearance: She has tangled, messy, and black hair in a high ponytail. Her hair is always dripping with seawater, even if she hasn't been in the sea recently. She has black eyes and very, very light freckles from being out in the sun for a long time. She is slightly nearsighted, and has glasses with the frames made out of dark blue sea glass, but she rarely uses them, only when she needs to see the board from the back of a classroom or something like that. Also, she almost always dresses in cotton. Her usually attire is a long sleeved shirt with sleeves halfway down her forearms, leggings that go to anywhere between her knees and ankles, and a pair of sneakers. She loves for her clothes to have elaborate patterns and colors.

Personality: Imaginative, curious, and creative, Coral LOVES writing. She's also very poetic and will sometimes randomly sprout poetry. Coral is also a very deep thinker. When she's thinking very deeply, she likes to sit down on a rock, prop her chin up with her left fist, and her eyes will get this faraway look in them. When she's extremely deep in thought, she'll be oblivious to the outside world, lost in her thoughts. But this doesn't have very often; normally she snaps out of it pretty quickly.

Gender: Female

Æ

Treehouse

Quirks: Coral loves to try new things, but often fails at them. For example, she loves singing and dancing, though she sounds and looks like a dying crow when she tries these... and her drawings look like abstract art by a kindergartener. But she still tries them all and just laughs at herself when she fails (the only thing she's semi-perfectionist about is writing). Also, she's obsessed with notebooks, but has a bad habit of only using the first few pages before ditching it for a new one. 

Strengths: She has some sea powers. For example, she can cup her hands, and seawater will appear. Then she can play with it however she likes. She can also manipulate fresh water like this, but she's better with seawater. Also, she can drink seawater and not get sick or super thirsty.

Weaknesses: She always has her head in the clouds, so sometimes she won't be observant enough and will miss things. Also, she's not very physically strong (she's average). 

Packing List: A jar of ocean water (always, always, always), clothes (colorful and patterned, of course), a LOT of notebooks, her pencil case (has the same things as Cassandra's minus the calculator (she isn't as mathy as me)), toiletries, a whole bunch of pretzels and Chex Mix (her favorite snacks), water bottle

Name: Agent Winter, but people call me Winter. 

Appearance: Tall, with short, messy electric blue hair and gray-blue eyes. I have a collection of hash marks on my arm and I'm usually wearing an Imagine Dragons t-shirt and cutoffs. 

Personality: Reckless, impulsive, and a total rebel, but I try to help people when I can. (Kind of a cross between Street Angel and Anakin Skywalker.)

Gender: Female

CBer, AE, or CAPTCHAE: CBer

Luxury, Treehouse, or Mystery lodge: I don't care as long as there's free food. If I have to choose, maybe luxury? They usually have the most buffets. 

Quirks: I tend to start randomly burst into singing the soundtracks for the Guardians of the Galaxy movies 

Strengths: I can control snow. I love skateboarding and I'm good at it as well, and I do Brazilian jiu-jitsu (which I'm also good at).  

Weaknesses: I'm kind of sensitive about some things, and I tend to lose it and start yelling at people if they tease me. 

What you are bringing: My Brazilian jiu-jitsu gi, my skateboard, my ukulele, my tablet, and my earbuds. 

Other: I can talk to wolves, if they want to listen. (They usually don't.)

Viri says whcn. Why can't? What, why can't you come? Because you're not a CAPTCHAE.

This looks... interesting? Not really sure what to make of it, but whatever, I'm game. Always up for a ski lodge.

Name: Viola?

Appearance: Tall and thin, with long hair and nails. Usually wears T-shirts, jeans and sneakers.

Personality: Basically a cat. Adores elegance and desires respect, but enjoys acting silly. Overly dramatic, curious, creepy, occasionally impulsive. Always on the lookout for opportunities to say/do something cool or funny. Enjoys climbing things, making things, succeeding at things, being alone, being right, and being entertained. Doesn't mind gore until it involves the digestive system or is coming at her, but is easily scared by many other forms of horror. Honest, patient in an immediate sense but not a long-term one. Takes promises very seriously. Stops communicating when upset, but otherwise likes to know that everyone (including her) understands everything.

Gender: Female

CBer, AE or Captchae: CBer

Luxury, Treehouse or Mystery Lodge?: Uh... I'm going to go with Treehouse, although Mystery Lodge might be cool. Luxury would probably be great in terms of the rooms, but it always carries an uneasy air.

Quirks: Does not understand how sewing machines function. Can operate one if it's already set up, but cannot grasp how the needle works. ...That's probably not what you were looking for. Um. Not sure what to put here, actually... Quotes a lot, and will sing or recite for minutes on end at the mention of evocative phrases. Doesn't hesitate to say it when something reminds her of a webcomic, book, song, movie, podcast, what-have-you. Knows more plant and tree names than a lot of people. Not allergic to anything, calm with bees and wasps and can touch them barehanded without being stung.

Strengths: Art, writing, critical thinking, physical flexibility. Empathetic, good at describing things. Not incredibly terrible with people. Knows herself.

Weaknesses: Endurance, pressure, appearing serious, finding the third option, social anxiety. Bad memory (records everything for this reason), awful in a fight. Gullible, avoidant, occasionally clumsy. Not a fan of spiders or parasites. Not very bold; avoids arguing with strangers at all costs.

What you are bringing: Several changes of clothes, toiletries, a few novels, her sketchbook and drawing supplies, snacks, a small first-aid kit, a flashlight, a multitool, a pocket watch, and a handful of spare change in a coin purse. 

Other: The Sticky Note Queen; can summon and control infinite sticky notes at will. Is definitely going to be taking advantage of that free popcorn offer.

Nymph, do you want to come? It might be your kind of thing, danger and all...

Nah. I have woods to be in. 

Okay, then.

When does this start? 

submitted by Agent Winter, Classified
(July 19, 2018 - 6:09 pm)

Alizarine, you can still post your sheet anytime TODAY ONLY and be a late arrival. Otherwise.... You won't be joining us.

Day 1~

Everyone began to appear at different times. Icy and Thirty were first, then came Cassandra and Coral. Not long after, Agent Winter arrived, followed closely by Viola?. Jean and Elliana came next, with Soren and Dewy. Finally, right after Secret arrived, everyone got settled and made it to their rooms.

Luxury- Cassandra, AW, Secret

Treehouse- Thirty, Coral, Viola?, Jwyn, Soren, Dewy

Mystery Lodge- Icy, Elliana

The mystery lodge was built to look like a haunted house. Icy and Elli were ectastic. There were paintings with eyes that moved, floorboards that creaked when nobody was there, and a draft. There were also escape rooms. Hallways and hallways of them. Elli and Icy raced to get out of each one first. Icy won most of them, having the advantage of hands.

~~~~

The treehouse was like a giant playground. No, a giant playground that was also a mansion. In a tree. Viola? questioned it at first but eventually shrugged and gave up. There was a giant rope swing, and that was the most popular attraction. CBers flew into a mound of hay, but somehow, eventually it turned into a giant hay fight. Thirty threw hay every once in a while, but mostly skulked in the corner. Coral knew exactly who to throw it at to keep the fight going,Viola? made a hay palace with the help of some sticky notes, and threw hay up in the air like confetti. Jwyn ran around, battling anyone willing to face her and her seemingly unlimited hill of hay. Soren and Dewy formed an alliance, so when one of them became to weak to fight, the other would take their place. After the hay fight, the exhausted CBers flopped of their bunk beds.

~~~~

The Luxury Resort was a spa like no other. There were attendants of hand 24/7, 50 buffets, hinder ends of skincare treatments, and state-of-the-art bedrooms. Cassandra relaxed in the hot springs, AW dug into the buffets, and Secret got a mani-pedi. They all met up in the mud baths, smiling and refreshed.

~~~~

Eventually, everyone met up in front of the maze and split up. AW, Icy, Elli, Coral, Thirty, Viola, Jwyn and Soren ventured into the maze, while Cassandra, Dewy, and Secret headed to the pool. After hours of no ouch with the maze, I realized I had forgotten to tell the CBers how to get out when they wanted to. When I shifted the maze to get them, Dewy and Jwyn had tears of frustration in their eyes, and Thirty looked like she was on the verge of insanity. Everyone else looked like they were at their wits end, and I had never seen people look so relieved when they saw me. After I apologized, I told them that all they had to do was shout, 'EXIT!' and the maze would part for them. They sprinted out of the maze and into their rooms, after a hasty goodnight. Cassandra woke up in the middle of the night, and walked out onto her covered baucany. It was thunder storming. Cassandra liked the sound of rain, sis he sat outside. Suddenly, lightning struck. She fidgeted for a moment, then everything went black.

~

Cassandra died of electrocution.
