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!

Thor spins around, hammer still in hand, attempting to figure out where that voice is coming from. He's not unfamiliar with magic, of course, but two of the three magic-users he knows are dead, and the third could be too, for all he knows.

"Who said that?"

He doesn't know how to use magic. He can't respond in the same way.

Immediately, Charles put his hands up in surrender.

"I did." He sighed, rolling his chair forward a little with his powers. "My name is Charles Xavier. I am gifted, like you. Though, I fear possibly not as strong as you..." His head tilted to the side as he gazed up at Thor.

"You're new here, are you not?"

[lostmyhammer]

He watches Charles a bit warily, but decides that he's not a threat. He lowers the hammer but he's not putting it down entirely. He could, and have nothing to worry about, but he's still unsure enough of the situation that he wants Stormbreaker in his hand.

"Is this Midgard?" He doesn't think it is, because he doesn't think there are people with some sort of magic that the Avengers don't already know about, and he had just been on Midgard but doesn't remember how he got to this place instead.

[bethebetterpath]

"Midgard." Charles sighed. "I do not know that term, sadly. Perhaps if you tell me where you are from, I can try to help you?" He frowned, his brow furrowing. With all his studies and education, he felt like he should have known that word, but it ran no bells in his mind.

Raising his hands, he held them palms out to Thor, intending peace. "My name is Charles. I'd like to help you, if I can."

[lostmyhammer]

"Midgard. Also known as Earth." He keeps forgetting that not everyone knows the same names as he does, and that the only reason some people know it now is that they already know where he's talking about when he does it.

"I am Thor, son of Odin, formerly of Asgard."

[bethebetterpath]

Earth. "Ah, right. I do know that planet. Earth. I mean, it's my home planet," he stuttered. "Er, right. No, this isn't Earth. It's another realm. People are pulled here, pretty much against their will and you're stuck here until they deem it time to go home. Sadly..."

He sighed, reaching up to run a hand through his hair. His eyes widen at what he hears. "Thor. The Thor. Norse God of Thunder?" His jaw drops open a little and he can't help but stare. After everything else he's seen, he should be okay with this. And yet, he's not.

[lostmyhammer]

"Yes!" He looks surprisingly pleased to be recognized, although there's a reason for it. Mainly that he's had a problem with getting that acknowledged lately. "I am looking for a way back to my people. I don't think the Bifrost will work from here."
