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!

[ the place is less than ideal, but Adam can deal with it. It reminds him of home, though not in a good way; it reminds him too much of his dad.

[ he gives the woman at the bar a cursory once-over before carefully picking his way over to the other guy, presumably the one he's been chatting with. He circles around to Thom's left side, stealing the stool next to him. ]

Hey. I'm the uh- The guy you were texting. Adam.

[volucrine]

[Thom seemed to be firmly lost in his own thoughts and distracted by the phone, oblivious until Adam spoke up. His head immediately popped up, a beaming smile immediately in place.]

Hey. You found it. I started thinking about it after I texted you, I'm not sure the sign is all lit outside.

[He shifts on his stool to offer his hand out to Adam.] Thom.

[parrishing]

[ obviously not leaping in immediately had been the right choice. Adam smiles back, albeit faintly: just a quirk of his lips, but it touches his eyes, and that's what matters. ]

It's not. But I didn't get this far without being able to fill in the blanks.

[ he shifts just enough to accept that hand, shaking firmly, but not too firmly. His Southern accent is out in full force now: ] Pleasure to meet you, Thom. How is it so far? Here, I mean.

[volucrine]

Here... like this pub, you mean? Uuuh- [He glances around. Some booths aren't even lit and the place has a certain griminess to it, like no amount of bleach could ever totally clean it.

Lacking anything good to say about the actual location, he glanced down at his ale. It'd just been something on tap, but even so, it managed to taste a little watered down.]

Ehm, well, now I can, at least, say the company is good, right? [He smiles sheepishly.]

[parrishing]

[ here as in the pub or as in the City; it really doesn't matter to him. He's not picky.

[ when Thom glances around, he can't help but do the same, eyebrows slightly arched as he regards it. It reminds him of the dingy places he's sure his father would frequent. He's not sure how that makes him feel.

[ but at the very least, at least Thom's changing the topic, and Adam manages a bit of a smile in response as he glances back over. ] Right. From what I've gathered, that's the best part of all of this.

Have you explored anything much?
