It was dark and wet. Your body was sore and aching with pain, a few things feeling broken even. The ground was hard under your body, like cement. Eyes opening and looking down at it you could confirm that it was in fact cement. "Where am I?" Your mouth asked. Without you moving it.
Your body looked left and right, seeing trash cans and walls each and every way, the very movements sending jolts of pain throughout your entire body and it dropped back to the ground with a yelp. The alleyway got darker and you could feel it get darker, actually feel it in front of you. Your body completely collapsed to the ground without your direction and no matter what you did, you couldn't move it so instead you reached out for the one thing you could feel that you could move.

[] Power - Pure unadulterated power is all that you need and all you can feel in it, something you need. Major bonus to untapped power. 1 Skill, 5 Power. 2.0X benefits for training for power.
Note: More skill means it's easier to say, make a sword out of shadows, concentrate power into smaller strikes and etc. more power means it's easier to throw around people.
Note: As a group decide what the question(s) will be about.
As you grasp for the shadows and feel yourself swamped in new feelings you suddenly can see so much more. All around anywhere that's a shadow, around a body laying on the ground you can see. A family in the building next door watching TV, people walking the streets, sewers below. It was both disconcerting and familiar at the same time.
[] Bejing - Outside of the alleyway you can see crowds and crowds of people packed shoulder to shoulder, chinese lettering all over buildings, signs and more. The streets are packed so much that it doesn't seem like it's moving and the walking people are faster than the cars even when in movement.
[] New York - Horns, yells, and general noises of chaos are easily heard from outside the alley and turning your sight outwards you can see what is known as the Big Apple. Taxis with tourists, people jammed into tight crowds, a procession of cars that steadily move along.
So that's where you are then huh? Well where are you exactly? As in your body? Looking around with your new senses you find yourself moving in a circle as something is keeping you rooted to the spot. And with some experimentation you find that prone person in the alleyway is what's the center of your circle. Upon closer inspection you find something out of the ordinary. A white cloak with red cross adorned on the back, covers him, a hint of something metal peeking out from under a few rips and tears in said cloak. His shoes are decidedly not modern, looking more like horribly woven together pieces of cloth. The caucasian face he has is young yet rugged, dirty with splotches of dirt and grime, which if they weren't there you could say with certainty that the young man would grow up to be a little if not quite handsome.
To the side of him you find something even more peculiar. Armor strewn all about the ground, the pieces disorganized but recognizable as something a knight would wear, a sword beside it serving to back up that thought. Definitely not you, but as he lay unconscious you could feel the pavement he was on, cheek resting against ground and metal cool against your skin. Trying to move 'your' hands once more you found that instead the shadows seemed to move with you, serving as your own body. In fact you're aware of several others moving you, or rather the shadows, too, also experimenting. But you return your attention to the young boy on the ground.
Individual choice
[] Poke him - You could wake him up that way. Maybe. And you're still not sure about all that's going on.
[] Move him elsewhere - An unconscious person in an alleyway in a city like this? No way that's going to end well. Best to try and move him to a safer spot, because as far as you can tell he's linked to you and you don't want to think of what might happen if he got hurt.
[] Arrange/grab his things - No idea to who these medieval objects belong too, but hey they look cool, and you could make brownie points by grabbing them.
[] Punch him - He's obviously responsible for whatever the fuck made you a shadow so pay him back for it.
[] Write-in - You're a shadow and there's so much you could do. Just give yourself a second to think about it and do it!
AN: Hoi everybody! Blitzkreug/Mr. N0bodE here with his very first Riot Quest, which for those of you who don't know, means that every vote counts! At least the minority ones. So basically if you vote for moving him and someone else votes for poking, both happen, and the more people that vote for one thing, the more/stronger that thing happens. Majority votes are when you all as a group vote for that thing and it happens.
A few notes about you in story. 1. You are completely meta, which means you could say anything you want, because you can use whatever knowledge of Worm you want! 2. The question(s) you ask, can be about anything in setting. If you all agree to, you can even save the question(s) for a life or death situation. 3. Be smart about every situation because I won't hesitate to end the story with you guys dying because of a simple mistake. Not saying that it's likely to happen, but if that's what happens, I'm not going to change it so you live.
