EDIT: HERE IS THE MIRROR. CLICK HERE TO READ EDGESTUCK IN THE CLASSIC MSPA STYLE.

---

Hello, anybody who happens to be reading this thread! I have had a few ideas for MSPAFAs kicking around, and I have finally worked up the courage to actually start one.

So, here we go...

Edgestuck

"When you are on the precipice of disaster, you must not look over the edge, lest you find yourself transfixed by the beauty of catastrophe.
Keep to the march; carry on through even the end of every place in creation. Only then shall you know true victory." - Hale, 1st Emperor of Axon

Yes, you are absolutely sure Hale said that.

A girl stands in her room, oblivious to what is to come. Ignorant of how she stands on the precipice of disaster. It is the 23rd day of nacabado in the fifth tafra in viru 10,037 of the Empire. It was eleven virui ago that she was born. What was she named on that day?

- - -

So, I already have the characters' actual names, but you guys can suggest silly ones when I ask for names.

i am eleven and what is this
Those aren't even words, let alone a name! Try it again.

Nakoaqua Tennetucky



THIS IS STUPID.

Do it right this time, smartass.

There we go. That wasn't so hard, was it?

=>



Your name is KROZU KIRAGARA. As was stated, it is your ELEVENTH BIRTH CELEBRATION. Your parents are conspicuously absent. You know that this is because they are giving you some privacy, for today is the day you become a young woman!
Or at least attempt to, anyway.

Your room reflects some ASPECTS OF YOUR PERSONALITY. You love RUNNING, and you even have multiple first place TROPHIES commemorating your victories on the track. You have a top of the line HOLOTOP COMPUTER on your desk, because you like to play VIDEO GAMES when not practicing your favoured athletic pursuit. Your bedsheets have lots of designs of LIGHTNING, because you are an ELECTRIC MAJA, which means you get to shoot lightning around and go really fast and stuff. This of course means that you compete in an electric-only track league for your age bracket, because you against anyone other than another electric maja is just really unfair.

What will you do?

[Jared-hai]

>Look out the window

[Matrix]

Krozu: Look out the window.



Ah, KANDRO CITY. Your hometown and the capital of the Empire. You can even see the TOWER OF HALE from here. It is from that tower the thirty-five toli are governed. The people walking here and there on the street look so tiny from up here!

=>



You wonder if you can just...

Just sort of reach over...

And...

=>



I'm crushing your head, you yuppie!

[Xanaboy13]

>Go on holo-top and chat with friends.
-Water Maja who you constantly bully.
-Fire Maja who wishes they could be as hot as you.
and a -Wind Maja who you get along well with.

[Matrix]

Krozu: Go on holo-top and chat with friends.



Good idea! You think you'll start with your watery friend.

Well, that didn't go so well. You try and try to make her say more than one word at a time, but it never happens. Now you're somewhat angry. Perhaps you will talk to your fiery friend now?

As delightful as always. Ugh. And was she hitting on you there? She can be creepy like that sometimes. You have no interest in her in that way. There are a few others on, so you decide to talk to another of your friends.

EB: hey hey hey!
WT: Oh, hello Krozu. What do you need?
EB: nothing! what are you up to!
WT: Trying to install this game, I guess?
EB: what is it the same one that bp is installing!
WT: Probably? I dunno.
EB: so lemme guess that means youre busy too!
WT: Well if you just want to talk, I guess I can do that.
WT: But I think I have to make sure this thing installs correctly? So I can't go outside or anything, I guess.
EB: aww!
WT: Oh, almost forgot. Happy birth celebration, Krozu.
EB: aw thank you! that's so sweet! !D
WT: Oh man. Um. I think I have to wash my cat? 6_6
WT: See you later, I guess.

-- windyThing [WT] ceased pestering electricBoogaloo [EB] --

Well, that sure was strange of him to just leave like that. You don't think he even has a cat. You wonder what set him off like that. You hope it wasn't something you said. He can be very sensitive at times. Maybe you should ask your BEST FRIEND EVER what to do? He's great with weird social stuff.
Oh, hey. It seems he is already pestering you. You must have not noticed amidst all that furious pestering you just did.

PC: Krozu
PC: Are you there?
PC: I have a
PC: Present for you.

EB: ooh a present! thank you!
PC: Oh there you are.
PC: Happy birth celebration.
-- electricBoogaloo has begun downloading SKRAN.zip --
EB: so what is it!
PC: It's a game called
PC: SKRAN.
EB: that is a silly name for a game! what does the sar even mean!
PC: I don't know.
EB: oh hey!
EB: is this the game bp and wt are playing!
PC: Yes.

PC: "Celebrate their eleventh."
EB: yeah i guess youre right!
EB: should i go apologise to him or something!
PC: Not so much apologise
PC: As much as simply
PC: Talking it out with him.
PC: Though he appears to
PC: Have gone offline
PC: Possibly out of fear.
EB: !(
PC: So
PC: NO knows more about
PC: This game than I do.
PC: His friend made it.
PC: You should go talk to him.
-- SKRAN.zip has finished downloading --
EB: welp i might as well install this game now!
EB: or at least try to anyway!
EB: bp and wt were having problems!

Well, it seems that everyone is busy with SKRAN. You guess you don't get to become a young woman today. But at least you get to play a weird game? Some BIRTH CELBRATION this is.

Will you talk to NO, or engage in more POINTLESS SHENANIGANS?

[Xanaboy13]

(wow, I can't believe you used my suggestion for all of their rough personalities, or maybe that's what you had in mind all along. I don't know.)

>More POINTLESS SHENANIGANS. That's what the first act always consists of before plot happens.

btw, did you get it? Krozu thinks she's hotter than burningPassion because she is! Scientifically, lighting is hotter than any flame will ever be!

I just went along with it (after a fashion) because I figured why not.

Also no I did not get it before hah that's funny.

[Matrix]

So I think I will need suggestions for these POINTLESS SHENANIGANS because I have been drawing a blank all day.

Nope, it's mine. If it was, I probably would have mentioned that in the OP and/or made the adventure name something related so fans could easily pick it out.

ANYWAYS

Krozu: RUN

Krozu: RUN AROUND YOUR HOUSE!


YES. BEST. IDEA. EVER.
Your parents aren't home, so they can't tell you not to run around the apartment!
TIME FOR FUN!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

=>



OW
And suddenly you realise why they tell you not to run around in the apartment like an idiot.

=>



Krozu is now unconscious, and cannot accept commands.

Readers: AAAH WHAT DO WE DO WHAT DO WE DO



How about giving this guy a silly name?

Oh hey look it's your name how pleasant.

Examine room.



Your name is ANZAR OSCALDAN, and you just apparently had a mental security breach or something? Whatever it was it's gone now.

Your room reflects some ASPECTS OF YOUR PERSONALITY. You love READING, and have copious amounts of material with which to do so, both physical and digital. You have a keen INTEREST IN HISTORY, because you live by the maxim "They who are ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it." The past by and large SUCKED, so you would do well not to repeat it. Despite its suckiness, you have developed a SORT OF FONDNESS for it. The kind of fondness one reserves for the adorable young of dangerous predators. Look, adore, but stay the fuck away. You also like to play VIDEO GAMES from time to time. These interests have tended to intersect, so the majority of your reading material is historically oriented, and your favourite kind of video games are STRATEGIC HISTORICAL SIMULATORS.
Your bedsheets have designs of brains because you are a PSYCHIC MAJA, meaning you get to use TELEKINESIS and TELEPATHY (though the latter is merely a subschool of the former, many people seem to regard them separately). They also have SMILIES and HEARTS because you like to dabble in SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY.
Your online handle is psychicCaution and you are always
Worrying about every
Little thing.

You are installing SKRAN on your computer, and having trouble with it.

You have just finished talking to Krozu, and she has probably gone and done something INCREDIBLY STUPID. NO said that he hasn't talked to her yet. You worry for her.

What will you do?
