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, 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 at the Tower that spills out its 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 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. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

"Who's screaming in your head?" That was unusual enough that Emma stopped and looked back at him. No wonder he wanted drugs.

"La Rideau Rouge Or whatever. There's a guy that deals there. Decent enough, I think. For what he is."

[hearingvoices]

"What he is?" Penny asked in a terse tone.

He had the feeling that she was just as difficult as he was. In fact, she reminded him of one of his teachers though perhaps a little hotter. "It's a long fucking story but it's a fucking monster than wants to kill or have me kill myself." Like the other travelers.

[wellbredbitch]

"I haven't met many, but drug dealers probably aren't the most cordial people. Matt is different."

She frowned a little as he described what was going on with him. "Have you tried a telepathic dampener?"

[hearingvoices]

Penny rolled his shoulders in a noncommittal shrug. "As long as you pay them." He hasn't had much trouble though he looked a lot more intimidating than he was.

At her question he pointed to the back of his neck, where the spiked path was embedded into his skin. "This is the best I got." It can also cause permanent damage if Penny kept it in place to long.

Emma blinked, then moved around him to look at the patch. "Interesting. I had something a little bulkier in mind. It doesn't work well, I take it." Otherwise he wouldn't be whining, she assumed.

[hearingvoices]

"Doctor said I can't have it on for long." He was not told what it would do if he kept it on for long but he assumed that it's something bad since there are a lot of needles piercing his neck.

Emma 'tsk'ed. "I can do better. Can you stand it for a little bit longer? I've worked out a design for a psychic shield, but I haven't made a prototype yet." Her voice was a little softer now, more understanding. She knew how hard it was to be bombarded by voices all the time. It must be worse to have someone screaming in your head all the time.

"It won't replace learning proper psychic shields, but it'll help more than drugs."

Speaking of which, she stopped in front of her old workplace, motioning toward the door. "Matt will be in the club. I don't recommend you try Lust, it melts your organs if you take too much."

[hearingvoices]

He liked drugs but the idea that there was something more was a comfort. The patch didn't bother him as much as it should and he didn't want to forget it was there. "I'll do that then." He could create shields from people getting into his thoughts but he didn't know how to just stop listening. He didn't know anyone like him who just stopped listening.

"Lust?" What kind of name is that. "I'll ask for something I know will work." He stepped towards the door, not really expecting her to follow him inside.
