Possible Scenarios
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 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!

Dorian was walking down the street in white and black pair of track pants and a black bandanna wrapped around his wild head of curls like headband. With a pair of sunglasses over his eyes, a walking embodiment of a Corey Hart song.

He could tell something was close, something that didn't smell human.

One second he had been walking to the corner store, the next moment he was standing in a new city, he knew it wasn't LA... He had been confused which was what lead him to explore. But the feeling and smell of something else... it captured his senses and he turned in time to see the demons coming from the shadows, he shifted his hands, his long glass like nails and his fangs were all he had. Growling, he let his fangs be seen.

"Come and play."

Kate was walking fast. She rounded the corner and saw a figure. She waved at them signaling that they should get going. There was something after her. She knew it. She could feel its eyes on the back of her skull, burning like embers.

"No, no. No play. You should run too." She wasn't wearing shoes that she could run in. However, she could power-walk.

Dorian didn't move as she moved past him. As if time had not changed and he had not slipped into madness after Sarah Jane vanished... as if they were still on the ship.

"Never run from your problems, Katherine." He stepped past her towards the monsters. His white clothes would be ruined but it was just his way. Throw himself into danger to save the maiden. Even when he wasn't sure whats going on. The creatures seemed to stop moving towards them for a moment as his green eyes peered from where the sunglasses had slipped down. The look of a hungry predator. "Go on and hide, let me handle this."

Kate did a fair amount of running away from her problems, let's be real.

Why wasn't he moving? He should be running. Wait. She knew that voice. It was dark. Kate had to squint. Besides, who else would have called her Katherine? "Dorian?" Kate snapped out of it. "No, you really should be running with me. I think there's a demon behind me."

Kate turned and looked behind her. Scratch the thinking part, there definitely was a demon behind her. She looked back to Dorian. When she saw his eyes she took a step backwards. "I shouldn't leave you... We should run."

"I fear no demon." He spoke just as easily. The idea of running just bothered him but, if it made her feel better. He turned and rolled his eyes behind the sunglasses. "Fine, fine. Lead the way, but if it follows I will kill it."

He never had an issue with killing darker creatures. He was a vampire of the masqurade, you sometimes have to kill for the better of everyone else. So he followed Kate along.

Matthew had learned to ignore the demons, unless they got too close, but his sword-cane was in hand and Matthew feared nothing with a weapon on him. Still, he was too busy counting his wad of cash to look around him.

Uncharacteristically devoid of company, there was nothing to distract him from that growling sound that his ears picked up. More then that, it was a sound he recognized. A Kindred..

The last thing he expected was the earthy flower smell that always came with with messy curly head of his Nephew.

"There are better fights to be found her, Alexander," he says, sounding far too pleased for the situation.

The sound of the voice was all that distracted Dorian from his future prey. He turned at the sound of the voice and grinned like a child in a candy store his fangs showing, as always over sized and damn near ready to ping if a photo was flashed. No Georgian man should have had teeth that nice.

"Matthew!" he called out like it had been ages. He moved forward, fuck those demons. "You look well."

The demons weren't so keen to be abandoned and as Dorian turned his back, they lunged forward.

"Better then you!," he proclaimed, tossing his cane up only to catch it by it's end as he strides past, delivering a devastatingly casual blow to the bottom of the demon's jaw.

"Let's not get you gutted just yet though, hm?" The question was delivered with a following punch with his free hand that made the demon stumble back.

"That's nothing new!" he called out almost jovial. His eyes widened behind the shades as the cane was flipped. He turned fast on his heels in time for Matt's finishing line as he moved forward.

Just like the old days.

With just the claw like nails he dove at one demon after Matt punched it, going for the eyes, he always goes for the eyes.

It didn't take them long to dispatch the demon and Matthew heaved an unnecessary breath as he straightened from the final blow, slicking his hair back with his hand.

"Can't even wait to get in the door before you find trouble can you, you beautiful bastard!" It started out oh so serious but quickly turned very happy as Matt held out his arms and strode forward for a hug.

Their teamwork really does make the nightmare dream work. Years of working side by side in the old south and Boston. Systematically destroying what got in their way.

"Of course not! Where is the fun in that Mathew!" Dorian moved, his white shirt stained with demon blood of course, hugging Mathew and lifting him in the process. "Its only been a few hours, but it feels like years."
