Omnia Mutantur Nos Et Mutamur In Illis (Newcomer + 13th Hour Log)

▼ All things change, and we change with them (13th hour & arrival log)
 
Who: Anyone
Where: The entire city
When: May 8th - May 14th
Summary: This is both a Newcomer log AND a General 13th hour log
Warnings: That depends who is there. Remember to mark your titles clearly if any warnings need to be issued!

▼ 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.

Logos' Fire attack looks to have done quite a number on it, although it's really hard to tell how scorched it is with that shell on...

"No one told you? During the thirteenth hour, enemies like this appear!"

Thanks to the pickup, Atoli is able to call out her Persona Innis to heal herself, and she does so.

"In public?!"

Kotoha's disbelieving yelp has a faint overtone of righteous indignation as she locks her gaze on the Wild Beast.

"Solar Logos! Break off and use Quiver Dance!"

At the command, the moth shoots into the air, a flowing aura spreading upwards across his body from his six wings. Below, Kotoha carefully moves herself so that she's directly between Atoli and the lion.
virtualbirdwatching: (not when i shift into maximum lecturedri)

"They all disappear once it ends, but yes!"

The lion Kotoha is staring at is suddenly drenched by a surge of water that appears to be from the ground; she's gotten to get Innis to use an Aqua spell on it.
unbroken_chain: (wonder)

[personal profile] unbroken_chain 2013-05-22 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh crap this is bad bad BAD

As Kotoha barks out a frantic order to Solar Logos - "Finish it with a Fiery Dance!" - the other Wild Beast lunges at Kotoha, slashing at her with lethal force. Kotoha barely avoids the blow, her uncoordinated dodge leaving her sprawling on the ground, frantically scrambling to avoid the follow-up swipe.

"AAAAAAAA!!"

A bright pillar of flowing blue light surrounds Kotoha, a small, fairy-like figure rising out of it and blasting the Wild Beast away with a Kouha spell.

"I have arrived from the sea of the soul! My overflowing energy is the promise of eternal victory!"
virtualbirdwatching: (losing sight of what's so important)

The Wild Beast disintegrates into a bunch of dark particles that somehow look redder in a large group.

After concentrating for a brief moment, a faint red circle will appear underneath Atoli's feet and move to the Grave Beetle. With a shout of "Zan Rom!" from the cleric, a whipping tornado appears around it, lifting it into the air and flipping it over.

Solar Logos obeys the order faithfully, blasting the beetle with a torrent of flames. As it dissolves into the same kind of dark particles as the lion did, Kotoha scrambles to her feet and points at the other one, falling back on familiar habits.

"Victini! Use Kouha!"

Kotoha's not entirely sure how she knows what Kouha is, but the god of eternal victory that is her other self unleashes the blast of dazzling light anyway.
virtualbirdwatching: (trying to run from the pain of reality)

[personal profile] virtualbirdwatching 2013-06-04 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
The blinding flash leaves it lying on its side, incapable of doing much. This, however, presents an opportunity.

"Let's go! I think we can end this!"

Initiate All-Out Attack?
unbroken_chain: (serious)

[personal profile] unbroken_chain 2013-06-04 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
INITIATE

Kotoha has neither weapons nor combat training so she's just going to be stomping on what would be tender bits if this was an actual lion.

There's also going to be a little bit of screaming.
virtualbirdwatching: (the mirage of deceit)

[personal profile] virtualbirdwatching 2013-06-10 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
For some reason that triggers Atoli's Demon Awakening, so interspersed with all that are elemental blasts of fire. Because it's a Tuesday.

Either way, battle over.

"I'm glad you're all right..."
unbroken_chain: (Default)

[personal profile] unbroken_chain 2013-06-11 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
Kotoha falls to the ground, panting for breath.

"Well. Um. Yes. I think I'm glad too."

His opponent gone, Solar Logos gently wings his way over toward Kotoha, who smiles up at him.

"Heyyy, buddy. Good job with that, uh...thing. Yeah."
virtualbirdwatching: (i want to feel until the end of time)

[personal profile] virtualbirdwatching 2013-06-14 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"I didn't recognize them either. There are some people that can identify enemies using their Persona, but I'm not one of them..."

She'll also cast La Repth real quick; all three of them should feel a little better physically.

No worries there, it's emotional exhaustion that has Kotoha on the ground.

"Um. So. Those things are...really dangerous, huh?"

At this, she tries to push herself up to her feet and fails as her knees just collapse beneath her.

"...um. Uh. Could you...give me a second?"
virtualbirdwatching: (grant weary soldiers a moment of peace)

[personal profile] virtualbirdwatching 2013-06-22 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
"Of course. Take all the time you need."

Atoli didn't have many other plans for tonight. On the other hand, though, Kotoha's question borders on the rhetorical, feeling as if it didn't need an answer.
