It rained today, but it was a pleasant rain, and it was warm, so it all evens out in the end.

Well, Ninja'd fair and square.

((I'd have liked to pick: My master is choking me teaching me an object lesson about the power of the dark side.))

((Why is he waving his hand like this? ... I will say everything.))

Currently: under arrest on Coruscant during the Clone Wars

You'll probably be taken to a prison of some description, and given the circumstances of your arrival I'm sure they'll be eager to talk to you. They will sit you down in a small room across a table from an interviewer, but:

Who is interviewing you?
-Someone in military uniform.
-Someone in brown robes.
-Someone in civilian clothes.
-A scary-looking robot.

((Last one for tonight, sleep time.))

Canon: Star Wars. Currently: under arrest on Coruscant.

You will be pleased to know that you've fallen into the hands of the Coruscant Guard, a highly-trained organisation devoted to the security of the capital. You might also be interested to learn that you have arrived during the Clone Wars - an exciting period for any go-getting young warrior.

Of course, the downside is that the Guard are going to be on high alert, since Separatist infiltration of Coruscant is an ever-present danger. Since you don't exactly look like a Core-worlder, they're going to be pretty suspicious of you. But never fear! Your Mysterious Voice from Above is here to help!

Do you want to (try to):
-Talk the guard out of arresting you?
-Go quietly?
-Run away?

Please send me a picture of that apple cinnamon bun, it sounds delicious :)

Wait for a moment, a truck filled of black-hole coffee and chocolate should arrive near your house soon. If not, tell me. We cannot have lousy employees, eh?

Canon: Star Wars. Currently: treading water.

You appear to be on Coruscant, the capital planet of the galaxy, and hub of culture everywhere. Now, you're not out of the woods yet (except in that there are no forests on Coruscant), but your chances of survival have just increased dramatically. So that's good!

Your next step is to wave someone over to help you out of the bubble. Don't worry about what they look like - they are all sophisticated, intelligent beings, and understand English (or Galactic Basic) even if they can't pronounce it.

By the time you're out of the water, security has probably arrived - you are a mysteriously-appearing intruder, after all! Pay close attention to their instructions, and while you're at it, tell me:

What colour are the guards wearing?
-White.
-Dark blue.
-Red.
-Green.

Canon: Star Wars. Currently: underwater.

The fact that you're having difficulty determining which way is up suggests you are likely in a repulsorlift-suspended ball of water, as used in Mon Calamari ballet. The good news is, these are rarely very large! Turn in place until you find the brightest light source, then swim towards it.

As you surface, you should see one or more beings watching you.

Who is looking at you?
-A large number of beings of many species.
-Aliens with big bulging eyes and froglike heads.
-Aliens that look like Cthulhu.
-Aliens with eye stalks and big floppy ears.
-Everything is dark and I can't move.

Don't panic! This just means we’re going to have to move quickly. Without further ado, then:

Why can't you breathe?
-I’m in a vacuum.
-I’m underwater.
-The air is poison.
-Someone's choking me.

It's a bipedal proto-crocodile, which is somehow even more terrifying, and its name means Butcher.

hS, spreading paleological terror where'er he goes

Canon: Star Wars

You've fallen into a galaxy full of possibilities, a vast canvas of war and peace, heroism and villainy, stables and starships. I'm sure you'll have a great time, provided you can survive the next hour or so.

Now, here's your first question. It's very important that you answer this as quickly as possible:

Can you breathe?
-Yes.
-No.

But if we fail to post for three months, they'll purportedly take it down.

Congratulations! You have been selected by a nonspecific omnipotent entity to be pulled from the real world and flung headfirst into a land of fiction. My name is Huinesoron, and I will be your Mysterious Voice from Above for today. I'm here to guide you through your first steps in your new home - oh, bee tee dubs, you're never getting back - and hopefully keep you alive. Fingers crossed!

First things first: while you were falling through the swirling mists of the Void, your nonspecific omnipotent entity should have whispered the name of the world you're heading for into your ear. So before we go any further:

Where are you going?
-Middle-earth
-The Discworld
-A galaxy far, far away

This is a game that cuts somewhere between roleplay, fiction, and Fun With Canons. It shares some similarities with Iximaz's You wake up in a forest, though I was thinking about it before that thread. You - as the collective responder - will answer a series of questions from your Mysterious Voice from Above, and the answers you give will determine where you are (and how that goes for you).

For this first question, I need you to pick one of the three options. Every other question will also be multiple-choice, but you can also come up with your own answer. You should also feel free to elaborate on your answers as much as you want - the goal is for people who don't know the canon to be able to answer by picking one of the options, while people who do know it can make their own or elaborate on one of the choices.

I'll also keep track of what we've discussed so far, so people can jump straight in without having to read the whole thread. Try to keep it to a single chain, though.

Oh, and feel free - after this first question - to give answers that don't directly answer. Your Mysterious Voice might get a bit Cli- uh, snippy with you, but hey, you've just fallen into a canon world, we have to make allowances.

Congratulations on reaching the repeating twos!
Here, have an apple cinnamon bun from my oven! I can even send you the picture of it if you wish!

Oh, by the way, did you get my email? It's been ten days.
