Characters: Anyone who signed up for the Dark World Plot! Look at tag list for more details.
Setting: The 4th and 5th of March. Located in the Cursed Floors + Ganon's Tower (Floors 6, 7, 8, 12, 62, 65, 68, 70, 73 and 79 + Floor 75).
Format: Most likely action but left at the players's discretion.
Summary: Your character somehow got trapped in the Forest Floor of the Tower-- And it looks nothing like the Forest Floor the characters remember. It's the beginning of the Dark World. Some floors look pretty different from what they did before, some nearly identical. The only way to get out is to go through the dungeons that make up this Dark World.

All characters start out in the Dark Forest, then as they go throughout the forest, they magically walk into one of the three dungeons (the one they have been assigned to). By exploring the dungeons, they will acquire one of the three Pendants that lead to the Core of the Curse, from where the cursed floors can be ended. However, Richtofen is there and happy to make sure that won't be that easy.

Mingle threads are simply for Mingle, whereas the exploration of the dungeons, puzzles, etc happens in the Exploration threads. OOC information here.

Warning: While your character may survive fine and all, the dark world is a dangerous place with lots of monsters and puzzles to solve. Characters may get harmed or killed, but that is left to the players's discretion. Characters going through the water of temple may lose their patience and sanity.


Arrival in the Dark World
Here are simply listed the three different ways your characters may have gotten dragged into the Dark World. Note this can be a combination of many of these ways, feel free to pick how your characters arrived in!

• The character may simply have been present on the floor when Ganondorf cursed it. That's really… Bad luck? If that is how it happened, the character would have been immediately transported into the Dark Forest Floor. If they arrived before the 4th of March, they would have been unable to leave this floor for three days. Which may be pretty unnerving.

• The character may have been caught by a floormaster or wallmaster somewhere throughout the tower, and cast into the Dark World. Floormasters and Wallmasters are gigantic and creepy black, red or purple hands that come out from either the floor or the ceiling and take characters to another part of the tower, point in case the Dark Forest.

• They character may have found one of the black doors of Mordor leading into the cursed floors. Out of luck, a creepy black hand similar to that of wallmaster could have come out of from the door and have dragged them in.

• The last option is the simplest, Ganondorf hided in the shadows and cast a spell on you that teleported you right into the Dark Forest. This option is mostly directed to those who have past history with Ganondorf or who are known to be close of Princess Zelda, Link and Tetra.

[Luke slows a bit, carefully tapping his foot around when he reaches the areas that are blacking out to make sure he's got actual footing or not. If not, he's going to find another way around, or maybe even jump over if the distance is small enough.]

[dark_world]

[There seems to be something shimmering when Luke taps on the portion that flicker. There is no resistance at the beginning, but then-]

I wouldn't do that, if I were you.

[?! What was that?

...

Luke will find that his foot seems to be trapped inside the darkening area of the path. One of the monsters in the nearby darkness takes notice of this.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke let out a squeak; wait, what?! That's not how this was supposed to go!]

Not cool, not cool!

[He tugged at his leg, trying to free his foot. C'mon, get out! Get out!]

[dark_world]

[Should have used a stick~]

[dark_world]

[The Darkball grins, floating ever closer as it opens its mouth. May want to keep trying, before it attacks.

It vanishes into a puff of dark grey smoke, though. That's good! ...Right?]

[sacred_flamer]

[...oh like hell he believes that. Luke's sword is out, on high alert as he kept trying to wriggle his foot out. This was going to suck without proper footing, but he could try dammit.]

[dark_world]

[And yet, oddly enough, the darkness is just as stable as the "path". At least, that's what he'll find when he is eventually forced to step down. Though maybe he won't have to, considering the path under his other foot disappeared and the barrier passed over him in the process.]

Good luck.

[The Darkball returns to normal at the whisper in the dark, attempting to bite him. Your luck stats, for a hero, are rather subpar....]

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke fumbled a little as his foot was freed, trying to figure out what the hell just happened. But... well, he didn't need to figure out much, considering there was that giant ball with teeth.]

[W E L P.]

[He settled himself into a fighting stance.]

Bring it on! I'm not done yet!

[He swung down as it came at him; it was awkward and a bit clumsy, as he wasn't in the best position to retaliate a bite. Yes, his luck sucks, thank you very much.]
