Possible Scenarios01. 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 chruning 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, filing 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 at the Tower that spills out it's doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously that's weird, 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 it's 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 choice of 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 it's 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. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!
[Party!]
At Laing's comment, he shrugs, and gazes around at the spread. "I think 'they' actually do show up once in a while, just to let people know they're around, but I'm not actually sure. I know he's shown up on the Network before, if that helps."
He tips his head, the rings in his left eyebrow glittering. "Very Busy, Important folks, you know?"

But there's a deliberate, individualist nature to their placement which he can, in theory, appreciate. He offers the man a conciliatory smile.
"I just wasn't certain whether we were here for the Magistrates' entertainment, or if they would be here for ours." Important people sometimes like to put on a show, after all. He bites one of the olives off the skewer.

"I think it's a pretty safe bet that you'll never go wrong with assuming we're their dancing monkeys, but every so often, they've got to make an appearance for the masses, so, you never know?" He grins cheerfully, which does just about nothing to take the edge off his cynicism.
no subject
"I'll remember that."
He feels the opportunity for an introduction. He's a bit out of practice with these social rituals, and so there's a touch of stiffness in how he offers his hand. But he offers it all the same.
"Laing. Robert."
no subject
"Jared Rhys. Everyone just calls me Rhys." He takes the handshake with a quick, easy grip, clearly not concerned with formalities, before he lets it go. "I'm gonna guess you're, uh, new here?"
