FEBRUARY TESTING POST: IT STILL HAS CARS AND SNOW

[stringmods]

Ahh Hinoto-Ri. City of lights, questionable wards, the 13th Hour and Personas.

SCENARIO 1
Well it's been a hell of a ride so far, but you've not found yourself somehow testing one of Q's vehicles.


'Do try to bring it back in one piece' he said. What are all these buttons again?! Did you read the manual?...

...wait...

...do you even have a driving license?

SCENARIO 2
We hope you arrived in warm clothing because if not you'll sure be in for a surprise!



Hinoto-Ri is covered in snow! First you show up in a strange new place and now you're freezing cold. Maybe it's just a dream? But...you remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you? Is this the city you're supposed to save?

[[OOC - Welcome to the test post! Don't worry too much about Persona stats or your levels here, just come out and make up a scenario about what they are doing. Try out your potentials and interact with the city around you! We'll supply some NPCs once in a while when you least expect it (after all have to test those out too, right?)]]

Demons?

[ Wait, what does she know about those? She hadn't been able to see the Oni...

Was she some sort of exorcist, then? ]

[greatseal]

You haven't met any yet?

[Clearly it's not what Takashi is thinking of, or there's something else going on.] There are a lot of demons living in the city. Most of them are pretty normal... for demons, anyway... but there are vicious ones that only come out during the 13th Hour and want to eat people.

[verytasty]

[ Most of them are pretty normal, but some of them want to eat people.

Nope, that sounds exactly like yokai. Then why hadn't she seen --? Wait, what is she talking about? ]

The... 13th Hour?

[greatseal]

[...Oh boy.]

You really are new. [She laughs, but not in a mean way.] I'll explain what I can, but let's get to the shrine first. There's a good bench to rest on there.

[verytasty]

... [ He blinks at her but then nods once. ] Sure.

[ And he'll... just follow Minako, though - not without looking over his shoulder one more time. ]

[greatseal]

[Well then, let's get to the shrine. And to the bench which has a lot of memories for her.

When they get there, she'll explain what she can about Personas, Philemon, other worlds, demons and the 13th Hour. She probably calls it the Dark Hour a few times. But he's welcome to interrupt her whenever he wants.]

[verytasty]

[ Natsume listens quietly, nodding as she goes along. He has a few sticking points, though. But he addresses the most important one first. ]

So... these demons. Can everyone see them?

[greatseal]

Hm? Well... I'd guess so. Unless they know how to turn invisible.

[That would be a little weird, actually. Invisible demons all around.]

[verytasty]

I see.

[ Then... what did he encounter before? Well, he puts on a smile for her. ]

I'm still a little confused about personas, but thank you for explaining.

[greatseal]

Don't worry. It'll make more sense once you've summoned yours.

[oh...] I'm Minako Arisato, by the way.

[verytasty]

I'm sure. [ He blinks - oh, oh yeah. Introductions. Right. ]

Ah, I'm Takashi Natsume.

[greatseal]

Nice to meet you, Takashi-kun.

So, why were you looking for a shrine, anyway?

[verytasty]

I .. uh...

[ Crap, he needs to think of an excuse now. ]

Um.. shrines are normally safe from demons. I thought - um... I thought I saw one earlier...

[ That's... close enough, right? He's not totally obvious that he's not telly the total truth, right? ]

[greatseal]

I see... Well, I'm not sure if that's true here, but the demons that are around during the day aren't going to really hurt you. ...Some can be pretty annoying, though.

[Or annoying and cute. Like the Jack clans...]
