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!

"Ah, so you just arrived as well," Augustine says, looking around in confusion. This is not the place he'd expected to be when he woke up a few minutes ago.

He looked at Adam, noticing the younger man's unease. "Not to worry. Like you said, it must be a nickname. I'm Professor Augustine Sycamore, what's your name?"

[parrishing]

"Yeah," he confirmed, staring out at the city all around them like it might suddenly turn on them. Maybe it was all a hallucination, maybe it'd all go up in smoke at any moment.

It was nice that the unease was put off to being displaced, though; that, weirdly, made it easier on him. "Adam Parrish," he replied carefully, his words slightly clipped to remove as much of his Southern accent as possible. "What're you a professor of?"

[professorhotpants]

Augustine had what sounded like a French accent, though he spoke slowly so he could be understood by someone who wasn't from Kalos. "Pokemon biology. Mega Evolution, to be specific."

Which would have been quite good to know in his universe. It made sense there. Elsewhere. . . not so much. But he didn't know that yet.

[parrishing]

"Poke-what?" Adam half-echoed, frowning intently. Biology, he understood. Evolution, he understood. It was just the words tacked onto them for alleged clarification that weren't making any sense.

[professorhotpants]

"Pardon?" Augustine asked, thinking he'd misheard Adam. How could he not know what Pokemon are?

[parrishing]

"What's a Pokemon?" He asked, aiming for more clarity in that. He thought it was a pretty obvious question. Maybe not.
