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.]

Pharos shrugged idly, and his smile returned to match the one Eikichi gave him and tapped the back of his ankles against the smooth surface of the toilet.

Dude, a majority of your life consists of dealing with these very same mythological figures living in peoples' heads and giving them crazy powers, wouldn't it be a good idea to—ah, let's just accept Eikichi is doomed when it comes to this.

"It's a pleasure to meet Hades' kindred spirit, Eikichi-san," the small boy in the striped uniform chuckled a bit, his smile and tone of voice gaining a wry edge and revealing none of his inner peevishness at the untimely malfunction of his teleportation powers that had been occurring since his arrival. "It was an accident, appearing in your bathroom. My original destination lies elsewhere." A whim of fortune! "I'm sorry if I startled you unintentionally."

Aw, alright. Well, is the living room okay for sudden out-of-thin appearances.
