Journey to Tarak

The journey to Tarak takes a few months. It then took several days for the chosen Players to recover from stasis sickness on Lunabase.

Afterwards, the Players experience the Inaugural presentation of Otherworld in Lunabase's holotheater, a run-through of the Game's protocols in the Lunabase Command Center, and a send-off party on Lunabase's Arboretum level, all on the same day.

• Ø -3: Inaugural presentation
  • Champions and Wildcards announced
  • Send-off Party in Lunabase Arboretum

The next day, the Players undergo whatever surgical modifications are required by their contracts. Two days later, they are shuttled to the Shakar Landing Field. There, they boarded a subway bullet train. A few hours later, they arrived in the fantasy city of Acropolis on the Barbos Sea.

• Ø -2: Surgery/modifications
• Ø -1: Recovery
• Day 1: Shuttle to Tarak
  • Bullet train from Shakar Landing Field to Acropolis
  • Champions and Jarrod embark for Wanjur in two separate Impworld ships

From Acropolis, the Players split into two teams. Team Copper consisted of Copernicus Gallows, Harper Angelos, Magistera the Enchantress, Moog and Fleas. Team Jarrod consisted of Jarrod Seventhborn, Sir Stanley Dragonslayer and Tolkien Brightbow.
