▼ When it is darkest, men see the stars...(13th hour)

 

The night sky once again turned red as the 13th hour hit the city. By now it was almost too easy to accept it. The moon (or what was of it up there) shone, affecting the monster population in subtle ways.

The Taurus monster had come and pass, as had Golden Week. The city was rebuilding itself, and with the aid of the Visitors, progress was going swiftly.

By now, even the strange events which had happened almost seemed a little too common. The pulls from a new building, or the odd creatures that showed up and increased the population for that hour gave rise to new oppertunities; both good and bad.

To keep the population safey, the mayor had asked the city to stay inside during the next few nights and let the city police and Visitors do their job, despite the dividing population on this issue. For the most part, there wouldn't be much resistance.

Each night, the sky was always filled with at least one or two signs of something new, and people were ushered inside buildings as much as possible.

Who knew. Maybe tonight you'd get a little momento from home.

▼ Ode of the Newcomer

 

You're not in your homeworld anymore. That much is evident. So how do you feel? Happy? Sad? Troubled? A little of all three? No matter what, the memories of a butterfly man named Philemon are fading like a dream; you'll remember the details, but perhaps not everything he has said. What time you showed here seems to be as random as everything else; if you were lucky it was during the day, if not, well the 13th hour was rather dangerous. Fortunately, there was a high chance you'd be spotted quickly.

...hopefull anyway.

There is one word that stays with you, however.

Persona.

So...here to save the city, huh? First you'll need to find out more information. And who knows, maybe a familiar face or two...

▼ Extra Long OOC Blurb

 

[ This is a dual log, both 13th hour, or newcomer posts.

This will be up to you on what you want to do; start a new post where you can character's name and OPEN and write the days they'll be wandering during the 13th hour.

If you are a newcomer, write OPEN and what hour they arrived. It can be the 13th hour if you want too! You are, of course, not required to reply here. You can do your own independant log if you'd like!

Join other people's post, do some exploration, post them fighting monsters and just have some fun leveling up / interacting! For this log, you can level up persona, but not in the same thread and the same day, IC-wise. Please do not abuse this. The conditions is that the fighting must happen on different days. The threads should be long enough that an attack is possible and shouldn't just be a few comments just for the sake of leveling up (Ie, we want effort in them, as much as you would with a normal log.).

If you submitted a building and it was accepted, feel free to start a post with them discovering it! The original owners who submitted will be the first to see them, due to a strange pull that made they feel like they NEEDED to go to that area. What they do with this information is up to them; they can contact others in their group, start exploring by themselves or allow the thread to be open for others to come in with them...it's all up to you. That next morning, the government will be coming over to analyze them (that will be done offscreen, however).

FOR THE CREATURES 1) The creatures have to be in the Beastary for you to use them. You don't need to use creatures from your own home worlds either, as long as someone's put in a creature in there! Also, make sure your characters could logically take on the creatures you pick let's not have them take down a giant creature when they couldn't normally.]

DON'T FORGET TO TAG WITH YOUR CHARACTER'S NAME PLEASE.

[Nano catches sight of Mikale on her way home from the Ichiban Market with a few bags of groceries she'd been meaning to pick up lately. The sudden shoulder grab seems to startle her a bit, but she turns around all the same, looking only slightly surprised.]

Ah...! Oh, um... no, I'm sorry, I don't know anyone by that name.

[shadowsher]

What about a girl with hair ribbons? They're pink, it's brown! [ You should automatically deduce brunette with pink hair ribbons from that. Really. It's not that Mikale's panic is causing him to run his mouth more than usual. ]

Do you know how I can get back to Willowing City, at least?

[all_wound_up]

I'm sorry, I don't know that place either...

[Nano frowns. She knows this feeling, and what this boy must be going through.]

[shadowsher]

Oh. [ He sighs and digs into his pockets for some money, but doesn't find any change. Weird. Didn't he usually keep his wallet in there too? ] Okay, it's fine. I an withdraw from a bank. Is there an American Bank here?

[all_wound_up]

There's a bank, but I don't know if it's an American Bank. It doesn't sound very familiar.

[shadowsher]

Oh. [ Great. ] uh... I guess that's fine. I'll figure something out.

[all_wound_up]

I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful. It's like that for everyone when they come here at first.

[shadowsher]

Everyone? Wait, this is is a common thing?

[all_wound_up]

Huh? Oh! Yes... this happened to a lot of us.

[shadowsher]

Do you have any idea why?

[all_wound_up]

I think we're supposed to use the power of Persona to save this world.

[shadowsher]

Persona? [ That word stuck in his head had meaning? ] Was the butterfly guy dream a real thing too then?

[all_wound_up]

That's right. Everyone he brings here gets that power. You can't use it at first, though. Almost everyone I know woke their Persona up for the first time fighting the monsters that come out at night.

[shadowsher]

Monsters? [ What kind of weird city has he been dropped into?!

But he tries to keep his calm. He's fought 'monsters' before. ]

Okay so uh. Personas are a kind of power. And you awaken it by getting into a fight. Are powers and stuff normal here too?

[all_wound_up]

You should be able to do all the same things you could do at home, as far as I know.

[shadowsher]

Well that's a start. But then why bother with Personas?

[all_wound_up]

They might be able to do something you can't! I'm not really sure - everyone's Personas are different.

[shadowsher]

Hm. [ Well, he is kind of curious... Becoming a better partner for Satou is always a plus, after all. ] So where do I find the monsters?

[all_wound_up]

If you wait until midnight and then go outside, you'll find them. There's an extra hour here called the 13th Hour, and the monsters show up then.

[shadowsher]

[ Thirteenth hour? ]

Yeah, okay. I'll take your word for it. Thanks, uh... You. [ What's her name, again? ]

[all_wound_up]

Nano Shinonome.

[Have a polite bow.]

[shadowsher]

Right, uh, Miss Shinonome. [ He mentally gives himself a sticker for pronouncing that right. It sounds like Japanese and his pronunciation is usually awful. Thank goodness for mimicry. ]

Nice to meet you. Thanks for all that. I think I can work with it.

[all_wound_up]

You're welcome. I'm sorry I couldn't have been more help.

[shadowsher]

No, not your fault... um... Maybe I'll... call you or snail mail you or something to let you know when things work out.

[ Getting a girl's number and address all in one go? Someone needs to stop acting like a creep. ]

[all_wound_up]

Of course! I'd like that.

[Creepy or not, she doesn't seem to notice.]

I'm listed in the COMP network.
