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. Network: There's a network device in your pocket - or at least a familiar object that seems to work in mysterious ways. Perhaps you can take to that and ask for a bit of help? Or maybe you'd prefer to have a little fun with all of this. Surely someone will reply. 08. Wild Card:Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

"That's what I thought," he replied to Remy, on the topic of this unknown someone not making themselves obvious or known. That wasn't how kidnapping worked, last time he checked. That was just a waste of everyone's time. It was almost downright nonsensical.

"And yeah, I'm pretty sure it matters. We can't go home, so most people are on the lookout for who brought us in. Mostly so they can make their laundry list of demands to a face, rather than the network," Adam replied, tone a little dull. For him, the City itself was the mystery, not the kidnapping. The energy, the barrier, everything - that was much more interesting and actually proved capable of holding his attention. Everyone else seemed like they were spinning their wheels, sadly.

A pause. "No. Haven't heard of anyone with that name. Why?"

"Agreed. It definitely matters, cherie. For one, it's a lot easier to convince a person to send us home than it is to convince the universe," He nodded in agreement to what Adam was saying. A person, or even a group of people, would definitely simplify things. You got things like motives and limitations. If they were here because of some kind of universal force, then they were really in trouble.

"I ain't been here long, but I ain't run into anyone by that name either. Actually, I ain't run into anyone I recognize yet. Kinda weird," Especially since he'd been with a team of people just like him. Usually these kidnapping, or displacement, situations happened to an entire team, not just an individual.

Elizabeth nodded to concede the point. "It's harder to be alone," she noted. Plus that blew her afterlife theory out of the water. Unless there were multiples, like Comstock believed. If that was the case she considered herself lucky to get off so light on the torture aspect.

In an attempt to be useful she said, "Back home there was a machine that could open tears between universes. I'm not sure how I got here, exactly, did either of you two see something like that? Or anything at all?"

He tipped his head, agreeing with Remy right back. Especially when the universe apparently couldn't even be communicated with - that threw a wrench in a lot of plans, quite frankly. Not Adam's, though - he didn't have actual plans just yet, mostly thoughts.

"It took me a while before I ran into anyone I knew," Adam offered by way of reassurance. Assuming, of course, that was reassuring. "And no, I didn't see anything like that. Last thing I saw before I woke up here was a bathroom underneath the theatre of my school. I was just leaving, then I was here."
