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 string of pearls

[ Something about this Tony feels different to her senses. Her super powered ones, that is. Not that she's digging far into his mind or anything -- once was enough, thanks -- but even when she's not mentally scanning someone, she picks up little things about their auras. She's just here to order a drink. ]

Please feel free not to elaborate how you know your new friend. [ look tony she doesn't need to hear about you making out with people in the corner or whatever. she says her words not entirely like she wants to slap him just for existing. it's progress ok. it'll go a lot better if she finds out that whole...civil war thing didn't happen. ]

[ She gets the brief crease of his brow, the quick pull at the corner of his mouth. Politely confused, he responds dryly, ]/small>

Can’t say I know them at all; that’s the point of the New.

[ Boy, that’s an interesting tone she’s using, with an interesting accent as well, Eastern Europe if he had to hazard a guess. Sister Drink Recipient across the way just smiles shyly at him and turns right around with her new martini. Ah, well. ]

[divaricate]

Just get a name tag that says "Hi My Name Is Tony Stark". Bonus points if it actually says that verbally and isn't just ... written on it.

[ Well, she thought it was a hilarious suggestion. ]

[houseparty]

[ The look he gives her is assessing, to be sure. He clears his throat and promptly wets it with a sip of his drink, tucking back the cocktail spear of olives with a practiced slide of his finger over the rim. ]

Right, so, you got one hell of an advantage on me. What’s your name; where you from?

[divaricate]

[ Oh cool it's one of those 'people who show up from a different point in time' thing. Or maybe a 'different version from a similar world' thing. ]

Wanda Lehnsherr. [ She was born a Maximoff though, but considering the she's built a familial father-daughter relationship with Erik here, she's been borrowing his name. ] For now. [ If Tony hasn't already noticed the engagement ring on her left hand, he might soon enough. ] From Novi Grad, the capital city of Sokovia.

[houseparty]

[ 'For now' draws the eye; he acknowledges the rock on her hand with a nod, tucking back a little more of the martini. ]

Congratulations. And Sokovia, right. Totally would have guessed.

[ No he wouldn't, and knows it, charming self-deprecation under the confidence. Leaning against the bar, Tony laces his fingers as the bartender brings Wanda's drink at last. ]

So, Miss Lehnsherr, how long have you been in the City of Clichéd Name?

[divaricate]

Ohhh, about a year city-time. I've been sent back home a few times, lived a few years of that. And another world, but that's a longer story, and one that would take way more alcohol than what's in this joint to tell.

[ just keepin' it real ok. ]

How many days or weeks have you been here?
