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!

Alone, for all intents and purposes. Adam understood that. He wasn't that fond of it either, not when things with Cabeswater were getting heated and they were so close to finding Glendower, he could nearly taste it. Instead, he was here with no clear way of getting back home and no hint that that was even possible.

It wasn't a good sign, but he was determined to make the most of it.

He stood off to the side, thoughtfully studying the wares of the convenience store and comparing them to things from his own world, as he listened to Thom chat with the guy behind the counter, a bored-looking guy who seemed baffled they were asking.

"The City of Sin. What, no one gave you the run-down?"

That got Adam's attention, and he glanced subtly up from the snack cakes he was looking at, frowning slightly. Nowhere named 'the City of Sin' was a good thing. Maybe he was dreaming, but it sure felt real.

"Oh, like, ehm... What's it called? Las Vegas? This doesn't look like Las Vegas, mate," Part of him knew this wasn't Las Vegas. At all. But maybe, just maybe it was and this was all a hilarious, easily fixed screw up. Maybe some fledgling magic user had made some kind of weird portal magnet thing. And all would be alright.

"Ehh, but no. No one's given us any kind of 'run-down'," He admitted, glancing over his shoulder at Adam, eyebrow slightly raised, to see what his reaction was to all of this.

"City of Sin ringing any bells for you?" Adam, please help him out here. The clerk had to be messing with them.

"Only in the sense that, yeah, it's another name for Las Vegas." And Thom was right, this place didn't look like Vegas at all. Not enough neon. Adam was pretty sure he'd hate Las Vegas too, though he wasn't sure he'd like this place much better.

He shook his head slightly when Thom looked to him, a frown marring his brow. The cashier stared at both of them for a minute, then shuffled awkwardly.

"Try the network, guys. I'm not one of the Chosen; I don't know how you guys deal with things like this," he told him, holding up both hands. "You guys want a...free slush or something, though?"
