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? Villain.

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!

A young woman who is clearly lost about to get mugged? In any other city with any other young woman is wouldn't be a fair fight. Erin had been tired of being a victim or damsel in distress. She feigns slipping a bit on some rubbish that was in her path so she can grab one of the fancy looking hair pins she had to keep her long hair up and out of the way for the wedding she had been at.

The thugs were already trying to sweep in on her. One of then gets stabbed in the hand with a quick jab.

"Get back! I don't have any money and I will fight all of you," she snaps. They think she is lying and now they are annoyed that one of them is bleeding. Erin is mentally swearing up a storm because it looks like they have a fourth member of their group.

She is so screwed.

"I'd listen to her," Erik told them, coming up behind them.

One of them turned and, recognizing him, glanced at the others nervously. "We should get out of here."

"She stabbed me," one of them complains.

She bears her teeth a bit. Of course she did. "You came after me. Not the other way around. Walk away."

Her teachers would be happy that she isn't showing how scared she is. Erin is actually terrified. What if they figure out how afraid she really is? All the bluster in the world won't really keep her safe.

"Maybe we should listen," the third who had seen Erik showing up as he crossed the street to join his partners in crime.
