The Search for the Newcomers, November 2012 Edition.

Who: Open to Everyone, but only Newly Accepted Characters can start threads.
Where: All around the city, anywhere from the 5th to the 20th.
Summary: Newcomers arrive and by now the Government is more ready and sends everyone out to go people hunting.
Warnings: ARRIVALS. Also assume the first thread is the ones who tell you about the city, and the other tags for the character can be talking with others in the city and learning more about it.

[FOR THOSE IN THE CITY:]
They were getting much better at this, it was for certain.

The COMPS had been upgraded with a new program, HORUS which allowed them to spot abnormalities; if something or someone showed up suddenly in a city that was constantly scanned, then there was a high probability it was a newcomer. There was also a sort of left energy from the travel; the Wise Men called it leftover Magatama Residue, where the magical energy used to pull them to this world and keep the String intact was still faintly present around them. It wouldn't last more than a few minutes, however, and due to the fact they could appear in most parts of the city, it made finding the newcomers was both easy yet frustratingly difficult. As the blips appear on your radar function, they were nice enough to calculate for you the best transport and destination routes to take to get there.

Now it was just left up to chance and make sure you got there fast enough that you were still able to find them relatively easily. For the most part, the fact they stuck out would most certainly help...

[FOR THOSE WHO JUST ARRIVED:]
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.

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...

[OOC: As stated above, only new characters can start a thread, but feel free to jump in any of them. characters arrive with their clothing and whatever items they had on them the moment they were taken; the remaining items will be later found in their apartments.]

GAH!

[She looks down, seeing that she landed on a person who has practically faceplanted into the asphalt.]

Omigosh! [scrambling to her feet jagdkadgd omg] I'm so, so, so, so sorry! Are you okay??
risingshepard: "Smelled your greatness", huh? // Shepard, exasperated and getting migraines. (Can't talk; stupid getting to me.)

...I've been hit with worse.

[Like, turning into a freaking meteor levels of worse. She'll pick herself up and shake her head a bit, rubbing her temples to try and get the headache out of her system.]

Damn, that stings... [She then turns to the girl that just turned her into a temporary, not to mention ineffectual, trampoline.]
You're not too hurt, are you?

[Because clearly the first thing to do is worry about someone else instead of yourself.]

I had worse.

[She wish she wasn't kidding. Shiki hisses, finally feeling the bruise that she got for landing on her bottom, putting a hand there, making her wince at the contact.]

You sure you don't need to go check in with a physician or anything? [She dusts herself off a bit more thoroughly for a few seconds, giving her a look over. ...Doesn't look like she could take that fall without using her as some sort of a brace. >_>;]

[Sheepish laugh. A Cure Drink pin would have been pretty handy right about now.]

Ehehe. Maybe I should. Just in case.

[... If she only knew now where the hospital is.]
risingshepard: Attention. (Hmm.)

Good plan. [It doesn't take her long, though, to start on a new topic.]

Though I suppose you need to know as much as I do about where you are, and what's going on.

[She nods.]

I'm completely lost here. Just, what's going on?

[Last time she checked, she and Beat were being sent back to the RG. What gives Powers To Be? 8|]
risingshepard: Imposing. (You're making an ass of yourself.)

All I know for sure is that we've got this 'Persona' power, and that we were gathered here for some big confrontation, if that dream wasn't much of that dream at all.

[She still has to get some of the finer details.]

[Groaaaaan.]

So much for thinking I'm done with fighting...
