▼ 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.

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 safe, the mayor had asked the city to stay inside that night 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 lucky.

▼ 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

[(Make sure you read it!) This is a dual log, both 13th hour, or newcomer posts (we're testing it out to see this works well or not.)

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!

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.

-oh right he should cover the guy right no focus Souji you can geek after there's not a weird dragon lizard around. But any attempt to shuffle his persona didn't seem to work, which was really worrying. Did he only have access to...whatever that Izanagi was?

He didn't have a choice, he couldn't just stand there. The second time Souji called forth the static-covered persona went a lot more smoothly, casting Marakukaja on both Shou and himself.

The defensive boost was helpful, even if it felt weird. It didn't feel hostile, and in a world where people are calling crazy shit out of nowhere, stuff should be expected.

He couldn't shake the feeling that he'd seen a similar phenomenon before, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it right now.

Mostly because, y'know. Distracted by lizard creature. After tackling the beast, with a minimum spray of sparks from the impact thanks to Souji's buff, Shou stands up and gives a flashy flick of the wrist before turning to the kid with a slight upward tilt of his head. "You alright, sleepyhead?"

...wow. This guy was...

That was so cool. This was so damn cool. Oh, gosh, he needs to respond, or...do something-

Souji only got off a nod, sadly, because he really didn't feel alright at all, and his tone would have given that away immediately. His head felt funny, and he was disoriented and drowsy, but now wasn't the time.

Give him time, Souji. He'll stop being cool once you get to know him.

"Good to know," Shou said, turning back toward the Dodongo. "Now, where we--Gah!" Once he turned, he found himself getting a face full of flames that cause him to stumble back. "Tch... What's the matter, little dragon - that all you got?"

Give Souji time, dude, he'll always be a masked rider in his fanboy heart.

When the dragon-lizard spewed flames, Souji went to try and bring up Izanagi again, but found his effort...ineffective. He was too drained and too exhausted to bring forth the persona anymore, but he'd just lied about-

Screw it. The teen hefted the golfclub a little higher and straighter, slamming the head of it down in to the dragon's spine.

It promptly snapped.

...

Well, there went that plan...

The snapping club caused Shou to flinch just slightly as the broken piece flipped by and landed on the ground. He looks to it, then back toward Souji. "Guess that counts as a penalty stroke," he quips whilst pulling the Joker memory out of his driver, and placing it into the slot on his hip and giving it a smack.

JOKER! MAXIMUM DRIVE!
