(Skip to the end of the story for a short, simple summary. The summary also contains more information, if you don't really understand what's going on.)

Hospital beds lined the walls of a dim, dusty room. All of the beds were occupied, but nobody in them were hurt. They didn't look sick, either. Just asleep.

Finally one of the people moved slightly, and she seemed to be waking up. After a minute or two she slowly sat up, wincing at the pain in her head.
It was the worst headache she had ever had, but that was the least of her worries. Where was she?

Getting up, she looked around and coughed as the dust entered her lungs. This place was like a run-down hospital room, why were there people in here? She looked down and saw a name-tag on her chest that she definitely didn't remember putting on.
"Fay Bloodsowe."

She ignored all of the questions in her mind, and set a new goal: "Get out of here."
While she expected the door to be locked, Fay turned the knob hopefully, and to her surprise it opened. And instead of the rest of the hospital, she actually stepped outside.

Gratefully breathing in the clear air, she looked around curiously. This place was like an old fashioned town. It was really comfy and neat but also at the same time, somehow menacing.

A certain building caught Fay's eye. It was a colorful, cute building with a large sign that said "Get a mask, it's easier than smiling all day!"
Fay approached the building and despite her best judgment, walked in. Pleasant music was playing, and masks filled multiple stands in the room, for men and women.
They were beautiful, she had to admit, but also creepy. Why would you wear a mask instead of smiling? And why did you need to smile, anyway?

An older woman with a white mask noticed Fay.
"Hello. It's a wonderful day, isn't it?" She said pleasantly.

"Uh, Ma'am-"
The woman cut Fay off. "Take this!" She said, shoving a beautiful carnival mask that had jewels here and there into her hand.

"Ma'am, I don't have any money." Fay said. For some reason her money was gone, and she also didn't want a mask.

"No, no, take it! It's free!"
"Ma'am, I really do-"
"Put it on, get out!!"

Fay had been shoved out of the shop, with the mask still in hand, and the woman slammed the door.
"Rude..." She muttered.

A man in a police uniform, who unfortunately enough was also wearing a mask, approached her. Fay backed away a little, but stopped when she noticed how weird that was. He was literally just trying to talk to her, but Fay was really on-edge at the moment.

"Hello. Lovely day, ain't it?" He said. Fay looked around, wanting to be anywhere else but in any radius of another person.
"Yeah, I guess..."

"You must be new. You already have a mask? Odd, most new folks don't choose to wear one, just go without one." The policeman laughed.
"Um...I didn't really choose to-"
"Well, I hope you enjoy this place! Remember, Fay, there's only one rule, be happy!" The cheery policeman waved goodbye and left to patrol once more, leaving Fay rather in shock.

There was a woman sitting on a bench across the street, sobbing. She was shaky, and continuously tried wiping her tears away.
The policeman that seemed pretty nice that Fay had just spoken to approached the woman, and knocked her out with his baton.
And while Fay was in complete shock, everyone else continued on with their day, not even glancing at the scene.

A sign that hung on a streetlight read:
Enjoy your stay in Crestfallen, and be happy!

(Summary: You're stuck in a large, and extremely odd town called Crestfallen. Everything seems cheery, and you're expected to be happy for some reason. If you're not, you will be punished.
If you're caught being upset, then you will be knocked out and put into 'rehabilitation' (the dim, dusty hospital room you also arrive in). You are allowed rehabilitation three times, before they execute you because you weren't happy.
This town couldn't be more odd, and the secrets that are hidden within it could surely be interesting.)





Form: (You are allowed to be a shop owner, policeman, et cetera. Basically, you can work here if you aren't a newcomer. You are also not allowed to have weapons, if you aren't a policeman. And a policeman's weapon is always a baton.)
