New Arrivals

☯

Who: Open to Everyone, but only Newly Accepted Characters can start threads.
Where: All around the city! They appear where you want them to appear.
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.
Music: This

[FOR THOSE IN THE CITY:]
It was Grand Prix frenzy by this time. The streets were filled with people watching every available television screen, crowds in the bigger areas of Scorpio district with the larger screen.

Now the HORUS detection system was working again. The device allowed everyone to spot abnormalities; and while it was being re-tuned to work with the appearing buildings, they could hone in on newcomers at a much faster pace. The leftover energy from the travel (commonly called Magatama Residue) gave them a few minutes to find them before it would flicker out.

Combined with 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 own radar function, it was also nice enough to calculate for you the best transport and destination routes to take to get there. Speed was of the essence, after all.

[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...

But why are everyone huddle around large televisions screens for some reason?

[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.]

Yeah. We're not even sure what the point of the game even is, other than creating a new universe.

So, the game needs at least two players to work. It needs a Time and a Space player, and everyone else is purely to help getting to the goal or whatever. We also have a role to go along with whatever aspect we get landed with. I'm the Knight of Time, Rose is the Seer of Light, John's the Heir of Breath, and Jade's the Witch of Space. I'm in charge of keeping the alpha timeline stable and to help the Space player breed frogs.

[Dave isn't going to mention the fact that his Rose has seer powers of some sort. That's too coincidental and he rather not dwell on that right now. Also, the fact that he's considered something or martial nobility like that of a knight.

Plus, he was more interested in-]

Who's John and who's Jade and why are you mentioning them like I know who they are?

[oops_i_diedx14]

[Pause....]

Goddamn it, I forgot. You wouldn't know them since they arrived way before you did. They're my best friends, along with Rose, but she doubles as my ecto-sis.

[rememberstime]

Okay. [A pause.] But who are they exactly? Passed being your best friends. [He feels like he's missing a lot. But he wouldn't know why he's missing out. He's never known them personally.]
