OOC: Hurrah for a roleplay with rules too! Anyhoo, you're approved so hop on in!
IC: Ezekiel was expecting to meet an instant death at the hands of a long, fatal fall, but instead of hard earth or metal, he met water. At first he had no idea what to make of this, he had only guessed when he felt nothing but cold all about him and opened his eyes to see that he was underwater. Had he fallen into an exposed cistern or a treatment tank? He had fallen deep into the body of water, rising slowly, the rebreather mask he was wearing to protect his lungs from the toxic atmosphere of his home allowing him some breathing. He had rotated his body to see the combat servitor he had fallen with had hit the same body of water and was sinking. His surprise had started to turn into alarm when he noticed a bright light coming from the servitor's plasma cannon.
Reading the temperature of the weapon, he saw that it was overheating and about to explode. He frantically began to swim towards the surface, a cloud of blood and debris formed from what was being washed off his body and clothes blurring his vision. However, he would not break the surface in time as the plasma cannon exploded. Anyone out of the water that could see what was happening, would first see a glow, then a loud boom as flashboiled water and steam erupted forth depleting the body of water of a third of it's contents. Moments later, a humanoid shape can be seen plummeting forth into the ground and being knocked out.
When he came to, Ezekiel opened his artificial eyes and was startled and confused to see, not the reddish orange colored sky and dim sun of Gryphonne IV, but a clear blue sky and bright yellow sun of some other world. Standing up, he checked to see if all of his limbs were intact and functioning properly which they were, and began to survey his surroundings. He was on a green, windswept plain, with scattered ponds and lakes, one of which was much shallower than it should be. Cold came over him, and he saw that his clothes were still damp, but this cold was not life threatening, so he continued to ponder this place.
