THE PAINFUL WORLD

## Intro

THE PAINFUL WORLD, despite its name, is a world that is a source of useful items.

## Description

THE PAINFUL WORLD seems to be a recent addition, as it was made 20 million years ago.

### Physical Description

THE PAINFUL WORLD has terrain similar to THE NEUTRAL WORLD, with a noticeable pink or lilac tint. All trees in this world have white trunks and branches, as well as pink leaves. The grass varies in shades of pink or lilac. There is a lack of man-made structures, but the ones present have a brighter tint than their counterparts in THE NEUTRAL WORLD. There is noticeably a complete absence of animals.

### Special Items

Special Items are items that can usually only be found in this world. Special Items have useful properties, and become bound to whoever picked them up first (which will be referred as the owner), unless they either have an intent on giving it to someone else, don't have a desire to be bound to the Special Item or already have a bound Special Item. unbound Special Items can be identified by a cerulean colored outline. Some people are able to switch between Special Items, being able to bind to and unbind to them at will, though few can do this. It's impossible to be bound to more than one Special Item at a time.

### Bound Special Item

A bound Special Item will always be within reach of their owner when not actively being held. The color of the outline on a bound Special Item is dependent on who the owner is. The color of the Special Item's outline doesn't determine any special properties, so it is assumed that the color is to differentiate what bound item belongs to which owner. The owner also obtains an outline that is the same color as the outline to their bound Special Item, which can be toggled. The outline for both the Special Item and its owner aren't usually visible through walls, unless the owner is in significant distress. When the bound Special Item isn't within reach or sight, it will emit a noise so its owner can find it. The owner can also teleport their bound Special Item to them, but this will take a lot of energy to do.

### Example Special Items

This is a list of some Special Items that have been found in THE PAINFUL WORLD. This isn't supposed to represent an exhaustive list, but rather what to expect when seeking out a Special Item in THE PAINFUL WORLD. Special Items don't have an official name, so these have been named for what they are able to do.

#### Information Box

The Information Box is a metal box with a screen on the front and 4 buttons. There is also a wire that is attached to a spool, which leads to a laser pointer. There are clips on the side of the box to hold the laser pointer when not in use. The laser pointer has a toggle switch. Despite the warning printed on it, the laser pointer can't inflict damage when pointed directly at the eyes of an entity. While the laser pointer is turned on, pressing the rightmost button on the box will open a document on the screen corresponding to whatever the laser pointer is currently pointing at. The two buttons in the center navigate whatever is open, while the leftmost button clears the screen. Commands can be inputted into the Information Box through a command line, in which text can be entered via thought. The Information Box can be turned on and off by pure intention. Testing has determined that the Information Box is indestructible.

The Information Box is highly useful for obtaining information, as you can get information on anything. However, obtaining information with the Information Box is extremely energy intensive. Due to this, a person can typically only view 4 entries in one session. It is highly discouraged to try and look up more than 2-3 entries at a time, as you will most likely get exhausted.

#### Teleportation Gateway

A Teleportation Gateway typically looks like a crystal of varying shape. Unlike other Special Items, this object changes shape and color instead of having an outline, and looks like a grey sphere when not bounded with anyone. When activated by its owner, the Teleportation Gateway unfolds into a doorway, maintaining its color. The doorway leads to wherever the owner wants to go. The owner can then collapse the doorway at will to get back a crystal to store on their person. After some testing, it is determined that the crystal can break, but the owner can mend it back together with enough energy.

The Teleportation Gateway is a useful transportation method, though the crystal will deactivate after use to recharge. Also, some energy is required to keep the gateway open long enough to walk through it. The Teleportation Gateway is only capable of generating gateways to previously visited locations, and cannot work in certain world due to interference.

#### Resurrection Camcorder

The Resurrection Camcorder is a old camcorder that records to the VHS format. Upon the owner's death, if a VHS tape is inserted into the camcorder and played (or just played if a tape is already present), the camcorder will float a few feet into the air and begin to generate a model of a person by emitting beams of light in the color of the outline (the model is also the same color as the outline). Once the model is complete, the camcorder will fall to the ground and the model will shatter, revealing the newly revived owner. This process destroys the tape that is used to revive the owner, so a new one has to be found. Only blank VHS tapes can be used in the camcorder, or the ability won't work. The camcorder can be used like a normal camcorder, though the tape used will be unable to be used to revive the owner. VHS tapes are very rare in most worlds, so it is highly recommended to keep any tapes you find in a secure place or inside the camcorder if it doesn't already contain a tape. The camcorder can break, making its outline pulse, though it can be fixed with standard parts. A repair manual, toolbox and spare parts are invaluable in keeping the camcorder working.

## Side effects

If you do not possess one of the Special Items within this world, you cannot leave. This shouldn't be a problem, however, as a unbound Special Item is always within 5 miles of where you spawned in the world.
