Welcome to the Matrix

Who: Open log for all Visitors
Where: IN THE DIGITAL REALM
When: Backdated to July 15th and 16th
Summary: The Government has finally finished its antivirus protocols, and is providing the populace with a way to fight back
Warnings: The usual fight log warnings

After nearly a full week of corrupted files, bricked laptops, improperly filtered network posts, robots going haywire, and general computerized chaos, the Government of Hinoto-Ri has finally stepped in with an announcement of its own.  On July 15th, Kandori sends out a short citywide announcement, accompanied by a heavily encrypted file sent directly to everyone's COMPs, which will begin auto-installing as soon as it is received.  The announcement is short and concise, informing the Visitors that the Hinoto-Ri Government has developed a new app allowing Visitors to access the network in virtual space by directly connecting their consciousness through an uplink established by the nanomachines.  This will allow the Visitors to confront the viruses, which have been determined to composed of programming code tainted by demonic essence, as easily as they would any other demons wandering about during the 13th Hour.  Caution is highly recommended, however, as any damage taken in the virtual world will hurt in the real world as well - additionally, remaining connected for too long will result in extreme mental and physical fatigue.  There will also be instructions to speak with either Atsuro or Ruri to receive antivirus protocols enabling the viruses to be defeated permanently.

Once connected, characters will find themselves in a vast virtual landscape like something out of the movie TRON, with programs and electrical connections whizzing past in every direction.  And in the midst of it all, littered across the landscape, are countless copies of the demonic computer viruses that have been plaguing the network and causing havoc for the past five days.  Visitors will find themselves able to use any weapons or powers they have in the real world, but will have the easiest time accessing their Personas, as they already exist as part of the user's subconscious and are floating even closer to the surface of the Visitors' thoughts in a realm based on pure information and thought.  The Government has requested as many Visitors as possible to enter the digital world to assist with the problem, and while their own servers are locked down as they deal with that infestation themselves, the Visitors are expected to clean up their own network with extreme prejudice.  Most of the viruses are the lower level floating smiley faces, with the three bosses lurking at the center of it all, only accessible once the small fry have been eliminated.  Taking out the boss viruses will result in the simultaneous elimination of all lesser viruses spawned from them, but the boss viruses will only be accessible on the 16th, the last day of the event.

Good luck, everyone!

((OOC: This is an open battle log.  There will be three subthreads - one for each of the 'boss' viruses.  Anyone who just wants to fight the lesser viruses can feel free to make their own threads.  The mods will not be running the fights, so players are encouraged to handle the battle threads however they see fit.  This is also a chance for everyone to use their Personas, as battles fought in the digital realm still count toward unlocking new skills.  And those waiting to awaken their Persona for the first time may find it easier to do here!  Basically, it's just a free-for-all combat log like the monthly 13th Hour logs, so have fun with it!  ^_^))

It's my decision to use it, "filth" or not.

[While she have her sword by her side, Miyako have yet to raise it against the viruses.

Norn moves back, while Orochi strike a group of enemies at once.
]

If it's useful, just utilise it to your advantage. Oh, and don't attack my demons by accident.

That's what my brothers aid before they fell to Chaos and become daemons themselves! [ He roars, swapping the bolter for combat knife and chainsword, becoming a whirlwind of blades, parrying and riposting, elbows and shoulders churning out as weapons as well, smashing, cutting, blocking and battering foes into organic mash. ]

That would mean they're weak.

[By her mental command, Chamunda boosted Orochi's strength with a spell. The large snake hisses before he lash out, again, to the digital foes. To say they're organic is almost a misnomer, but in the end, the viruses will fall before them.

When one of them attempt to reach her, Miyako swiftly draw out her sword and strike at it.

[ A sword punches through the breast of the foe in front of Miyako, causing it to sag, then he kicks it off the end, his full 8 foot height glowring down at her. ]

What did you say about my Brothers?

capitalbackup: (Right...)

[Miyako looks up at Garviel, unfaltering. Her Persona matches her stare, looing directly at him. Orochi moves closer toward his her, just within range to protect his demon tamer. She knows she can fight, but Miyako can acknowledged when she need her demons' aid.]

They're weak because they are not strong enough.

[ Garviel's open hand reaches out, trying to grasp Miyako about her neck and raise her eye to eye with him, clearly infuriated. The movement is a posthuman blur, no longer even pretending at baseline humanity for his strength and speed. She has enraged him ]

[Unable to dodge in time, Miyako find herself lifted up by her neck and give Garviel an annoyed look. Out of sheer stubbornness, she haven't let go of her sword or give the order to attack him.]

Hold.

[Orochi was about to lash out, aiming to force Garviel to let go, but his head were inches away from touching him at her command.

Miyako stares at Garviel and speak, despite her discomfort as her free hand reach up to grasp his outstretch arm.
]

Let go.
