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!

Nathan couldn't breath as Peter talked. While it doesn't surprise him that their mother took that step it still tears at his heart. Sylar had lived his life, talked to his family and worn his face. His murderer had taken what wasn't his to take. It didn't matter he hadn't had a say in the matter, it still had been Nathan's life, not Sylar's to live. It takes him a long moment to ask the question foremost on his mind right now. "After you found out," he says his voice so low he isn't sure Peter can hear it, "what happened then?"

Okay, this was harder than he even expected. He wiped at his face. "Sylar came after me, and I beat the shit out of him." His smile, at this point, was less than nice. It had been pretty brutal, and Peter didn't regret it, even after everything. "We had your funeral, and I got dumb and tried to do the vigilante hero thing. I was just tired of it always ending up like this, you know? Claire talked some sense into me." Even with how it was probably going to end, it felt good to talk this out. Sylar could only offer so much perspective, especially with what happened here.
"A few days later, Ma came over and told me some of her usual cryptic crap. Something about letting the one friend I'd made in that entire time go. And guess what? I didn't believe her this time. I copied her dreams and saw it for myself." Big gulp of iced tea here. This was it. "It showed an earthquake at a carnival, people screaming, and my friend caught up in the middle of it. And it showed Sylar saving her life."

Nathan had to stomp on his control to keep himself from creating a tornado in the middle of his brother's apartment. Sylar helped them save the world....his murderer was one of the heroes now. Not only had he stolen Nathan's life but he'd never been held accountable for it. This filled him with a rage that he wasn't sure he could recover from. Why had Nathan spent most of the last few years suffering while a killer had...had been on karma's good side.
"Pete,' he says his voice a low growl, "this story had better end with Sylar in jail by the end of it or I may end up starting a hurricane in here." He hadn't yet had time to explain how he'd been experimenting with his powers since arriving, it was like almost dying had unlocked something in his brain that made him understand what he could actually do. His power wasn't simply about flight it was about the air itself. Like he and it were one person and he wanted to share that with his brother, but how could he knowing what he knew now.

"Well, he kind of did. A jail he'd be stuck in." That was the best he could do. "Turned out he'd gone to Matt to try to get his head fixed." He'd wait for the snorting laughter that followed that, really. "Being you gave him an...outside perspective, I guess." Peter shrugged. "Anyway, Matt trapped him in his own mind, instead. Put him in a nightmare world to live the rest of forever in. I figured I'd get him out, force him to help, and then let Matt put him back in."
No he didn't. He thought Matt was being cruel, even considering. He didn't know what he was going to do, but he knew he had to save Emma. He twisted the glass of iced tea in his hand, wiping the sweat off the outside.
"It didn't end up working out like that."
