You're in your
You're in your bedroom, up way too late reading, when you hear a knock on your door. When you open it, there's nobody there. You do, however, notice a package. Seeing that it's addressed to you, you grab it, and looking around one last time, you go inside. When you head back up to your room, you open the package and see a letter. You begin reading:
Dearest CBer,
Are you tired of constantly having to leave your home at the whim of crazy letters that you get inviting you to a mysterious resort, only to die? Well, I have the solution! My team and I have developed a fully immersive Virtual Reality Resort. This resort has been specially programmed so that it is impossible for anyone to die! That's right, all the luxuries of a resort vacation without the death! Another plus is that you can go on many adventures here, all from the comfort of your own home! At the Resort, you will socialize with other CBers, read any book, watch any TV series or movie, or play any video game ever created. Of course, to attend, you must fill out this simple form below, so we know how best to accomodate you:

A virtual reality resort?? That sounds amazing! You hastily fill out the form, then pull out the VR goggles from the box. You slip them on, and instantly find a message in front of you:
THE ADVENTURE IS ABOUT TO BEGIN. ARE YOU READY?

Sorry that was so long! I've never done a Ski Lodge before. Exciting stuff. Anyway! I'll start when we get 15 players, including AEs! I'll see you next time with Part One!

Name: Secret
CBer or Æ: CBer
Gender/Pronouns: Female
Personality: I'm a very bookish sort of person, my favorite thing to do is to bury myself in blankets and read a book when it's raining. I can be shy, but once I get to know someone, I love having a good conversation. I'm pretty mature, but I enjoy a good pie fight. I recently just joined, so I might not know many people. I'm humble, obediant, and I try to be kind. I am pretty independent, and enjoy doing things on my own or in partnerships, possibly a group of three.
Appearence at the Resort: My appearence has changed a lot! *flips through endless wardrobe* I'll have waist length midnight blue hair and eyes, and very pale skin. I'm wearing a bluey-violet sweatshirt over a black tank top. I'm also wearing black yoga leggings, and midnight blue converse.
Ideal Bedroom: Ooh, this is cool. A small but cozy theme, with an entire wall as a bookshelf. Log walls, but glossed so I don't get splinters. Midnight green (it's a color, look it up) walls. Hardwood floors with tons of fuzzy rugs and blankets and fluffy pillows scattered around. A desk with drawers in one corner, a mass of fuzzy and fluffy things mentioned earlier in the next, and a twin bed with a midnight green bedspread. Oh, and a plate and charger for my phone and a fro-yo dispenser.
Would you rather read, watch a movie, or play video games?: Read all the way!
Hobbies/Interests: Reading, writing, drawing, sewing little animals, taking photos of literally anything, playing my clarinet, and listening to music.
Other: Vegetarian (but I still eat dairy stuff)

Can I join? If so I'm reserving. Also I'm a cat but I'll morph into a human if cats aren't allowed(though I think I might not be able to resist scratching the furniture). Anything is possible on CB, but to keep it fair, I will only be able to become human(not that I really want to be anything but a cat, anyway!) If I join, this will be my very first ski lodge! So yeah, I'll reserve until someone tells me if they're's(weird word!) a spot left.
P.S.: CAn Luna(My AE) come?
P.P.S.: Lightpaw(CAPTCHA) says -keeti-. Uh, yeah, you're a cat. I know.

day one part one boiiiiiiiissssss

After the initial message faded, the CBers were confronted with forms having them create their ideal appearence. They all took careful time making sure each and every detail was perfect for them. Afterwards, they were confronted with another form having them decorate their ideal room. After they all finished that, they appeared in an atrium with signs directing them to an Olympic-sized swimming pool and a massive library. They chattered excitedly, ready to explore. Suddenly, a beautiful woman of an unidentifiable age came down the grand staircase in front of them. She was tall, with long, bronze hair cascading down her back and a long dress that looked like it was made out of pure moonlight. She smiled down at all the CBers, and then she spoke: "Hello! I'm so glad to see everyone could make it! My name is Lucille, and I created this masterpiece!" She gestured around her, and looked at the CBers expectedly. Someone began to applaud, and when she nodded, everyone gave her a round of feeble applause. Suddenly, a scrawny teenage boy burst out of a door that none of the CBers had noticed before. "Excuse me, ma'am, there seems to be a-" "Not now, Jonathan!" Lucille cut in. "We have guests!" She waved him away. The CBers glanced at one another, confused. What did that boy have to say? Before anyone could ponder it too much, Lucille began speaking again. "Welcome to the Virtual Reality Resort! I suppose you'd all like to see your rooms?" Everyone nodded excitedly. Lucille flicked her wrist, and suddenly, the CBer's names appeared above their head in the color green, blue, or purple. "The color corresponds with the hall you're assigned to," Lucille explained. "So we have Gracia, Alice, Viola?, and Secret in the purple hall, Sea Glass, Dusk Sky, and Vivian in Blue, and Agent Winter, Nyx, Leafy, and Luna in Green. The halls are right up the staircase." As soon as she was done speaking, Lucille vanished. It was quiet for a few seconds, but then Nyx said, "Sooooo... are we gonna go up there or what?" Everyone suddenly ran towards the stairs, shouting and whooping excitedly. The top of the stairs split into a purple staircase going up, a blue staircase going down, and a hall painted blue. Sea Glass, Dusk Sky, and Vivian walked down that hallway to find their names on the doors to their rooms, and a common room area. Gracia, Viola?, Alice, and Secret headed upstairs to find the same thing, and Agent Winter, Leafy, Nyx, and Luna headed down. They all opened the doors to their rooms and gasped. Even though they had designed the rooms themselves, they were still surprised at how real everything looked. Gracia saw quotes from all her favorite Broadway musicals all over the walls and gasped in delight when she noticed that her bed hung from the ceiling with ropes. Vivian admired the view from the floor-to-ceiling windows in her room, and Sea Glass was contented with xyr gold-and-aqua haven. The CBers spent the rest of the afternoon getting settled and looking at each other's rooms. Vivian was showing Viola? her room when they heard two people talking in low voices at the end of the hall. Viola? looked at Vivian quizzically.
"They absolutely cannot know, Jonathan...There's a problem...glitch...murder..."
Vivian poked her head out the door. When she came back into the room, she looked like she had just seen a ghost. "What is it?" Viola? whispered.
"That was Lucille."

And we've begun! Hopefully part 2 will be out in the next week or so.

Viola? Is that you writing it? Seaglass's pronouns normally get mixed up, so . . . *smiles sneakily*

Okay, so basically I forgot this existed. However, now that I'm in quarintine(I can't spell) I'm going to finish it! I doubt any of you will read it because it's pretty far back, but as long as I can say I finished a Ski Lodge, it's okay! Luna, I noticed you didn't fill out your pronouns, so for this post I just went with they/theirs! I'm really sorry if I got it wrong, and please correct me if I did! Also, I'm not Viola?.

DAY ONE PART TWO
After showing off their rooms, the CBers reconvened in the massive dining hall for dinner. Dusk Sky was very confused as to how they were able to eat, but everyone else just waved it off because they were hungry. On one end of the room was a large buffet that took up an entire wall with every food the CBers could imagine. After they served themselves, they sat at the circular tables that were scattered around the room. When they were all seated, the doors burst open and Lucille walked in. As soon as she made it to the center of the room everyone fell silent.
"Hello! I hope you've enjoyed your very first day here at the VR Resort! Normally, I will go over the day's events during breakfast each morning. But because you arrived this afternoon, I'll be going over the event for tonight. After dinner, there will be a Welcome Ball in the ballroom. Formal attire is not required, so you can stay in whatever you're wearing. Desserts and snacks will be provided." The CBers began to talk amongst themselves, but they all went silent once again when they realized that Lucille wasn't finished talking.
"And I have one more surprise for you- Tonight, I have arranged a meteor shower for us to watch during the ball!" Everyone cheered and began to make their way to the ballroom.
When Luna entered the ballroom, they couldn't believe their eyes. Floor-to-ceiling windows lined the whole room, and the ceiling was decorated like the night sky. Behind them, they heard Secret gasp. "I know, right?" they said, not taking their eyes off the gorgeous room. Secret caught up to them. "I've never seen anything this beautiful in my life. It's perfect." They chatted for a while, and then Lucille announced that the meteor shower would be starting in 15 minutes. Luna noticed doors leading to a balcony. They headed over to the doors and were about to open them when Lucille stepped in front of them.
"Sorry, nobody's allowed out here tonight." Luna thought this was strange, but they just nodded and stepped in front of a window instead. Suddenly, the meteor shower began. It was beautiful, and everyone was lost in the moment. Everyone except Viola?.
She noticed the balcony doors halfway through the shower, and slipped outside when everyone was too interested in the stars to see anything else. She made her way to the edge of the balcony, where she watched the remainder of the meteor shower. After it was over, Lucille noticed her outside. She ran to the doors, threw them open, and frantically shouted, "Viola?! Come here!" This startled Viola?, and she tripped over the edge of the balcony and fell down three stories. The rest of the CBers, who had seen everything, ran to the balcony, where Lucille was looking over the edge. Everyone started asking questions: "Is she alright?" "What happened?" "How do you not know what happened?" I was getting more dessert!" "Is she... you know, dead?" Everyone fell silent and looked at Lucille. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and said quietly,
"Yes. Yes, I think she is."
