~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ƪ(˘⌣˘)┐ Poison Game ┌(˘⌣˘)ʃ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For various reasons, you are all in Neptune's truck. Maybe you're hitchhiking. Maybe you fell in and she just didn't notice you were there until now. Maybe you snuck in because of the alluring smell of snow cones. Whatever the reason, you are currently too far away from civilization to really leave now... and now that the truck has a flat tire, no one will be able to hijack Neptune's command of the wheel and drive back home! You're all stuck... and now, you're in... this place. Is it a swamp? It looks like a swamp. It smells really bad, wow. And inexplicably, "All Star" by Smashmouth is playing on constant loop on the radio, and you cannot turn it off. No matter how far you get from the truck, you can still hear it. Welcome to Shrek hell...

There's a series of popsicles and snow cones in the truck that you can feast on, and thanks to the truck still being on (read: radio constantly playing All Star by Smashmouth), they are not yet melted! Feel free to feast upon them to your heart's content. You can go anywhere you want in this swampy hell. If someone's strong enough, you can even drag the truck with you and set up camp somewhere else! But beware... some adventures are ogre before they start...

~~~Cadet~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5oaBFb8CNg)

21 | NB (they/them) | 5'6"

Cadet is an androgynous-looking person with dark, cloudy grey eyes and a white fauxhawk with black roots beginning to show. They wear thick-rimmed nerd glasses, which they are (surprisingly, since everybody wears nerd glasses as a fashion statement) functionally blind without. They lean toward baggy sweaters and thick, warm leggings, as they're somewhat bird-boned and delicate.

They seem to be a bit spacey, with a tendency to fade in and out of conversation, but don't be fooled - they're taking in everything that's being said. Perhaps they're just better at listening than contributing. Their voice is soft and quiet, but they're kinda snarky and cutting in their commentary.


~~~Cerulean~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj4vLZJhNEk)

?? / ?? (they/them, he/him) / 4'7".
-
A rude, foul-mouthed kid who doesn't look more than twelve, but swears that he's old enough to be carrying as much contraband as he does. His record is longer than most politicians', and doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. Though usually kicked around by his roommate, who he constantly does shenanigans with, he manages to stay pretty arrogant. He likes animating, shoplifting, and baking casserole.

Bright blue hair with black roots, a sign that his hair is obviously dyed. Tan, with an abundance of freckles on his cheeks and nose. Wears a large faux fur coat with a cheetah print and oversized black galoshes. His name isn't actually Cerulean, but he refuses to go by anything else. Has a gold tooth and a nasty smoking habit.

~~~Neptune~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jWHffIx5E)

[ 24, F, 5'7" ]
 A young shaved-ice-truck driver who never actually got a drivers license, Neptune... really made a bad choice in career. She's got absolutely no skill behind the wheel, but seems to think her excellent sense of direction (read: horrible sense of direction) more than compensates. She takes back roads, side roads, roads that have the appalling audacity to call themselves roads when they're in fact large hills, shop windows, mountains, "aquatic roads", and other such ways to reach her destination that have resulted in the deaths of many innocent ice blocks, and the only reason she hasn't been fired yet is that she's not actually employed, but stole this truck and decided she'd spend her life masquerading as a driver for... various law-related reasons. As such, she cannot let her delicate facade break away, and therefore will very stubbornly refer to herself as a snow-cone-truck driver when asked.

She has straight blonde hair down her back and eyes the color of her namesake (okay, they're actually blue, but she insists they're a neptune color). Her clothes are those of a totally average snow-cone-truck driver... if that snow-cone-truck driver had been on the run for the last two years, from the shape her uniform is in (spoiler: that is exactly what happened).

Please don't examine any rattling sounds you may hear in the truck. They could be anything from condoms to a gun to a suspiciously blood-stained employee id card.

~~~Ivory~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuR5YMyfeNI)

M/28/6'1"

Ivory is a big man, in just about every sort of way -- in height, in girth, in presence, you name it. He's quite eccentric in behavior -- a charming, cheerful, gentlemanly fellow, but you can't help but feel like there's something off about this man. It's not that he's particularly evil or anything, no, but he certainly gets a kick out of messing with others, watching their reactions, and there's something about that near constant grin of his that tells you he's... hiding /something./ Whether it's something good, bad, or neither, no one really knows -- and that's just how he likes it.

He clearly has way too much time and money on his hands, but what he even DOES with said time and money is anyone's guess. He has a large amount of... things, lord knows what they are or where they came from. Old, antique-y looking things that he refuses to specify the origins of. He also refuses to specify how he inherited his family's fortune -- largely because he doesn't know himself. His parents just up and left one day, and he knows they're most likely alive, but where? Why did they leave? And he also tends to mumble to himself sometimes, but it's as if he's speaking with... someone, something, right behind him.

There's just an... odd presence to the guy. Abnormal. Paranormal, one might say.

But that's just a bunch of rumors! Those journalists gotta make their money somehow, right?

A tall, round man with pale blonde hair and eyes matching the color of his namesake, light freckles just across the bridge of his nose. Top hat, suit, etc the color of his namesake this man is So Fance. Always carries around this walking stick cane thing that you're like 80% sure has some sort of weapon inside it.

~~~Strawberry~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ev8QMeECbA&)

19/F/5'8"
She has a wild air to her, appearing mainly in the way she holds herself and the way she talks with others. She's always able to laugh even in sad moments.
Strawberry is a traditionalist and has peculiar morals, she sticks to her course, doing what she believe is right, no matter what other people say.
Despite her flamboyant personality, Strawberry has a great sense of responsibility and exceedingly great emotional strength, considering serious matters as something only she should handle. Despite how long ago it was, she still carries a heavy burden from the death of her younger brother years ago, after he was involved in a car accident.
She wears a black, tight-fitting t-shirt with an odd red logo on it. Her hair is black, cut short into an odd choppy style that is longer at the back, where she makes it a ponytail. Her shoes are grey and plain, with white knee-high socks and an ancient looking blue anklet-esque thing that spirals up her right shin. She wears dark grey colored cargo shorts that stop just about a quarter of the way down her thighs. She has an odd, cream-colored cape. Her eyes are black and look almost like they belonged to a dragon once. She wears a silver chain necklace that holds an small meteorite-esque stone in a multicolored glass ball.

~~~Mint~~~ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul1ftPmCI9c)

22 / F / 5'2"
Appearance: http://40.media.tumblr.com/428320922993a618e613c0b3cf22b949/tumblr_nllm5x4xLm1sbpovzo1_500.jpg

 Mint is a really funky girl. Like, seriously. There's something wrong with her, probably. She seems to have been taught the English language in the 1980's, because she sounds like Beetlejuice and the Breakfast Club were her teachers. Aside from her interesting vocabulary, she's a very clueless woman. She's not very understanding of dangerous situations, or she just purposely forgets about them. She does try her best to be friendly, despite how confused she seems to be all the time. Is very touchy-feely with people she shouldn't be touching or feeling, and is inconsiderate about what people think of their nicknames that she gives to them on a whim.
