The Search for the Newcomers, January 2012 Edition.

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.]

No... I think it's sponsored by the city. Personas are what everyone will be fighting with.

Fighting with them? Is it a type of magic? Is it related to that man I saw when I came here?
all_wound_up: (curious)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-22 01:39 pm (UTC)(link)
The man in the butterfly mask, you mean?
likethewolf: (Serious)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-22 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. Do you know who that was?
all_wound_up: (huh?)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-23 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
No... I'm sorry. But I think everyone has a dream of him before they wake up here for the first time.
likethewolf: (Too Cool)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-23 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Hmph. That seems to coincidental to just be a dream.
all_wound_up: (curious)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-23 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a dream, but it's also real, I think. It's pretty confusing.

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-23 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It's probably some sort of power, science or otherwise. I wonder if we are seeing the actual person who brought us here in them.
all_wound_up: (huh?)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-24 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
That might be true. I've never seen him again after that, though.
likethewolf: (Serious)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-25 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Tch. I don't like that. If he's going to screw with us he should show his face outside of a dream.
all_wound_up: (curious)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-25 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
He didn't seem like a bad man... just a little strange.
likethewolf: (Default)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-27 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It's ok to be strange when you aren't kidnapping people.
all_wound_up: (sad)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-28 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I... I'm sure it wasn't for a bad reason.
likethewolf: (Too Cool)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-01-31 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe not. But I've had bad luck with forced supernatural dealings, someone will be in this for the wrong reasons.
all_wound_up: (hurt)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-01-31 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Well, there is a group the government is worried about.
likethewolf: (Shocked)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-02-01 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Do you know anything about it?
all_wound_up: (huh?)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-02-01 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
It's a group called the Anoli. I don't know much about them, though. I think they're criminals.

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-02-03 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Like a yakuza organization?
all_wound_up: (serious)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-02-03 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe. I'm not really sure.
likethewolf: (Serious)

[personal profile] likethewolf 2013-02-05 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Thanks, though. Maybe looking into them can give me more information about this place.
all_wound_up: (disappointed)

[personal profile] all_wound_up 2013-02-05 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Be careful.
