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!

Seeing someone fight them back... with knives no less... definitely lights Julia's resolve.

She didn't know any battle magic. Anything she'd learned from Marina had been burned out of her, and she hadn't been in Quentin's 'study' group.

What she does have is a wellspring of untapped power, so she just throws energy into a simple spell that sends the demon on Sera sprawling backwards several feet.

For all her general mistrust of magic, Sera will never complain when it's being used to help win her a fight.

Well. She probably would if it were blood magic. But a force blast ripping the demon away from her is a welcome assist. She only needs a half-second to recover before she smashes her daggers into its shadowy form. After the next moment, it'll start to dissolve.

The last remaining demon — the one Sera had injured before the other tackled her — turns toward Julia, reassessing her as a threat. One clawed limb comes sweeping up, aiming to rake at her.

Shit.

The definition of squishy mage, Julia can think of doing nothing but putting her arms up to protect her face and body and the claw rakes across both of her forearms, digging deep.

Lucky for both of them that so far as demons go, this sort is fairly squishy. Sharp claws, but squishy. It gets one more swipe in at Julia before it screams, and dissolves into threads in the wake of Sera's daggers.

Sera sheathes her weapons and straightens, her eyes falling to Julia's arms.

"Oof," she laments. "looks like it got at 'ya a bit. You all right?"
