As your mind drifts through the bright ethereus of sleep, you become dimly aware of a foreign presence entering your mind. It wraps itself around your consciousness, constricting it like a snake; until, eventually, the only thoughts your mind can muster are centred around the tendrils entangling you. It is almost painfully hard to focus upon anything other but the entity intruding into your mind; you are forced to take in it's every detail.
It's a cold entity, one that is distinctly seperate from yourself. Its texture on your brain is cold and alien, even moreso once you become aware of it moving through you. As its vile form passes through you, you feel less and less within your own body and more as if you are somewhere else, almost as though you are being pushed away.
In a flash, you awake. However, you are not in your bedroom. The room around you does not feel completely earthly; it carries with it an air of strangeness that is utterly chilling. You are sitting in a red leather chair, in the centre of a small square room. Its walls are completely bare, lacking even wallpaper. Opposite to you stands a shadow, one that seems to occupy three dimensions. He looks with an eyeless gaze directly at you, as if assessing your very being.
"Mortal."
The words do not come from the creature; they come from within yourself. Each consonant and vowel that is uttered emanates from within your own consciousness, each sound a constant reminder of the entity's grasp of your mind. The sound fills up the room, bouncing madly across the walls and drilling into your mind.
"Out of the trillions of appropriate life forms in the multivariate, you have been chosen. You have been deemed, by my infinite knowledge, to be the most fitting creature for my purposes."
You more feel the words than listen to them; they roll through your being, and seem to latch onto your bones as they move into you.
"I shall extend one of four gifts to you, mortal. Before I explain the gifts, I shall clearly explain my conditions. Firstly, you must know that no matter how powerful you become, time travel is never in any way possible. Time is my domain, and my domain alone. You may never exceed the limitations set in the contract, and you may never attain more than one gift. Of course, you can refuse my gifts. I cannot guarantee your safety should you do this, however. Ah- and one last thing; I ask only that you be interesting. No one likes a sad clown. Now, with rules aside; would you like to hear of my gifts?"

@Gav No, you didn't. I'll assume you're wanting to sign up, right? |

"Hit me with your best shot." The man grinned in return, pushing away the fear the silently gripped him, "Er, uh. Don't do that.. Just tell me these.. Gifts." |

@Gav "Pity. I was hoping I'd be able to hit you." http://web.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=114210416 @Pod As John's hand made contact with the shadow-man, it felt as if he had placed it in a roaring fire. The creature did not react. |

| "What is the... gift?" Juni ask, almost cautiously, afraid of who the person she was asking, might be. |

| "And... what's the contract? I'd like to know that before the gifts, at least," says Kevin Barrow in a rather confused voice with small traces of irritation over being abducted. |

@Dankius "No no, mortal. I am not a demon; rather, I am a god. The difference is distinct, and one you may need to quickly grasp quite soon." @Tik "The contract is a rather simple thing. To summarise it, it explains the absolute limitations of your power and what we must do in order to fulfil our parts of the bargain. My part of the bargain is that I give you one of my gifts, and take you to another realm. Your part of the bargain is that you remain interesting. Simple, really." @K3 "Impossibility is a useless concept, mortal. But you'll soon learn this for yourself." http://web.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=114242804 |

@Tik "Excellent." http://web.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=114243652 (I believe I may close signups now, as I've gotten a lot of people. However, this is probably going to change if I discover that I can manage these better.) |
