"To see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour." -William Blake And then, the world ended. The drive of survival is not the only force at work, though. The deity that has created this world for you has a goal in mind: they want to create a beautiful new place, inhabited by a society that is peaceful and loving and simple, like in the olden days. The two of you are the beginning of this new society and new world. To help things along, the air, the fruit, the water has all been modified for certain...beneficial properties. Certain fruits will make you have an attraction and affection, something almost like love or devotion, for your companion. Others will increase fertility. Bathing in or drinking water from any of the many streams can cause your body to change in many ways, from enlarged sexual organs, wider hips for birthing, to increased sexual appetite and stamina. But all of these things, food, water, and air will cause the most important change. You will forget. You will forget about your old world, your old life, your old lovers, your old friends. Such memories can only bring you sadness, and the new world needs none of that. Soon, the only thing on your mind will be how you dote on your companion, your workmate, your lover and the progeny the two of you will create.

Feel free to play as if your character(s) have been here for as little or as long as you like, and you're welcome to play in media res with them already gone "native." )     |
 When it comes to the way affection is shown, everyone has a different way they go about it. That means that there's a pretty good chance, with regards to couples, you could end up with two people who have two varying approaches towards how they prove they care...sometimes radically varying, which can lead to more than a little confusion or hurt feelings if there's not proper communication. But when both people are on the same page, they can tell each other how they feel with few words. ☄ Comment with your character, info, prefs, and how your character will likely show affection. |

| Find a cause and serve it. Some people are good at that, being natural-born followers. Others are more rebellious and don't subordinate well, yet can follow their heart if they believe their actions are right. Most find themselves dedicated to something at some time during their lives. But what if that cause isn't a something, but a someone? A person. The particulars aren't that important. You're a dedicated servant. A best friend. A soldier. brainwashed to know no better. A bodyguard charged to protect. Somebody who ended up here along the way and just felt like you need to take care of this person because they'll probably trip on their own shoelaces. Maybe they're too delicate for this world and you want to keep them innocent. Whether the person you're tangled up with has a mission themselves or are merely living their life, somebody has to look out for them. This resolve may be easier to keep before you realize than your feelings towards them are beyond platonically protective; if you're the sort to put all thoughts into the mission, this new distraction may be confusion. You may need to protect them from something new...yourself.
