In various worlds, there are several planes of existence that can be traversed through the help of magic. Most of these planes appear to be spherical- isolated bubbles of existence. As most know, however, it's impossible to fill a space entirely with spheres: There's always little gaps of air in between- that expanse of metaphorical air between the planes is what is known as the Inbetween.
There are many ways to access the Inbetween, but none of them are intentional. Maybe you used Bags of Holding and created two gates to the Astral Plane just a bit too close to each other. Maybe you attempted the Wish-Simulacrum cloning manuever or the Peasant Railgun one too many times. Maybe you managed to long-jump backwards onto a slope. Maybe you just got unlucky and walked a little too close to the edge of existence. One way or another, the Inbetween draws in people who break the unwritten rules of reality. Getting back out... well, that's much harder.
The rules for this experiment:
As is customary with these threads, and language that is profanity or vulgar is immediately off the table. Keep things PG-13 at most.
Be kind to each other. Characters can be mad with each other, but anything directed at players will not be tolerated.
PvP is fine as long as both players agree beforehand, and are fine with the possibility of their character dying. There's no PvP safety nets: You can die in PvP like you can in any fight.
Keep all characters you create below Level 3. Your characters are allowed to have been of a higher level before entering the Inbetween: This place has a funny way of messing with powerful creatures' abilities. Multiclassing is fine as long as it abides by this limit.
No character is allowed to bring weapons, damaging spells, equipment, or food into the experiment. You can find these things from around the Inbetween, or make your own. Goodberry is also not allowed.
Each player gets one character. Once your character dies, they're dead and you're out. If your character dies, you can still browse the thread and talk out-of-character, but you can't influence what goes on in the experiment anymore. *this rule is subject to change if it's too harsh.*
No character can have knowledge of the Inbetween or anything residing within it from their backstory prior to the events of this experiment. If you want to know something, you'll need to find the answers yourself.
All PCs start at the same place- going it alone here is a death wish.
Good luck, have fun, and don't die!
With all that said, it's time to figure out an escape! Be careful: The Void is always staring back.
*edit: Fixed some typos in the rules. I took some of these rules from a previous experiment I ran, so there were a few things that didn't make sense for the current setting.*
What's life without a little war to spice things up. I am (As drummerboy stated) The master of many faces, The unseen puppeteer, & The unnoticed influence.
I am the Great sage equal to heaven- The monkey king
