Possible Scenarios
Please note that all characters will initially arrive in their assigned housing; they are free to explore the City to their heart's content after that!

01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach churning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged!

02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running?

03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party in the Tower District that spills out its doors in welcome. Obviously, this whole thing is weird and you don't know who your hosts are, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad.

04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences its population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride: choose your sin and be wicked.

05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian.

06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank.

07. Network: There's a network device in your pocket - or at least a familiar object that seems to work in mysterious ways. Perhaps you can take to that and ask for a bit of help? Or maybe you'd prefer to have a little fun with all of this. Surely someone will reply.

08. Wild Card:Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

I know exactly how it feels, Charles. And you know I do. Do you see now, how seeing inside someone's head doesn't mean you know what they've gone through? I was thirteen when I woke up and everyone was gone. Everyone. And you haven't even been truly alone, have you? For all the poor company I find Hank you be, you seem to have retained his dumb puppy loyalty. And you're not alone now, either, but not having your powers probably makes it feel that way. I told you: you're not wired not to perceive with world with six senses. You don't need to find a way to keep suppressing your powers; you need a way to get them back as soon as possible.

He's not a dumb...

[Charles sighed, looking up at Erik. He hated this. He hated feeling so weak. A shiver ran through him as he struggled to remain calm despite it all.]

They'll come back. The serum will wear off and they will come back and I will need that chair again, Erik! [He hated it, hated feeling helpless, hated the voices impeding in on him. He hated that he'd been brought here against his will and he hated that he was stuck here too, even if he had Erik beside him.]

You want me to believe you but you never believe me when I tell you what I think of you... Why should now be any different.

He's the dumbest smart person I've ever met. [He told Raven she isn't pretty. How much of a fucking schmuck could someone be, Charles?]

And if you need a chair, we'll get you a chair. I'm sorry about your legs, since I'm told that's my fault, but your legs aren't your power. And if you had your powers, you wouldn't have to question what to believe; you'd already know.
