Persona - The True Self

Warakuma Hospital > Warakuma Park - After School
22/6/2015 Monday

@floodtalon@oblivion666

As expected they joined, Seighardt was surprisingly meek, and Ryan not so surprisingly meek. Still, these two still needed their rest. It seems they would be discharged tomorrow and can attend school again the day after. Although with this meeting concluded, Rui gave the both of them his phone number before setting off.

"If you two need to ask any questions, call me, or try and find Kazuki or Kami, or anyone else on the team. I'm sure you guys can remember that some of our classmates are part of it too", as he said this, the two would properly recall seeing quite a few people at their 'acceptance' of their shadows. Regardless, after this, both Kazuki and Rui left the hospital for the park.

As Rui and Kazuki walked together, there was a tension of silence between them. Out of being proper, or that they simply did not have any kind of deeper relationship to have a chat, but soon Kazuki broke the silence.

"What do you suppose Kami has to tell us?", he inquired. Rui was uncertain, and he knew Kazuki was too. Kami made this meeting seem a little urgent. Maybe it was just a desire to get it off his chest and share the burden of information.

"Who knows. I just hope it brings us closer to ending this. I can't even remember when I didn't have to think about anything but what game I was going to play next, or what textbook I had to study", he commented. Kazuki kept his silence, but pretty soon they came upon the park.

As Rui approached he noticed that Kami was not alone, Ayano was there too. At least it was someone on the team and not someone unrelated to it. Else they might have to find another place.

"Am I interrupting something Kami?", for that brief moment, Kami was conscious to the fact that he and Ayano were together alone until Rui and Kazuki arrived.

"Wha-? N-no... Uhh, no, we just happened to run into each other", he regained his composure. Even then he looked quite ragged, the way he moved wouldn't say so, but little details one could notice would tell.

"Well, you made it seem urgent. So what's the news?", Kazuki asked.

"Right. I guess I'll start by summing up what we've learned so far... First, it's that the cultists don't seem to know the true nature of the mirror world, that they're throwing people in there for one reason or another. I did a little sleuthing behind my father's back since he's assigned to this case. The cultist that was turned into the police station broke fairly quickly, and said that people were being kidnapped for "salvation". Police is still not sure if this string of kidnappings is related to the ones last year, since the ones this year, everyone so far that had been reported, returned quickly... Thanks to us", he took another breath and continued, it looks like he was getting to the new part.

"I found something... Strange. The Lady Asai that the cultist mentioned. I looked into it, there are only three people with the name Asai in Warakuma, two are students, one is an old lady who lives in the suburbs... However they are the ones who are alive, none of them have any involvement or suspected involvement with cults. Though I did find an Asai Serizawa, who closely fits the bill for involvement with cults. She was part of the currently suspected cult, "Junsei Sekai Tensei", or Perfect World Reincarnation. Turns out, she is the wife of the cult leader, she passed away two years ago, shortly before the kidnappings began. Now I'm explaining this, because what the cultist said in the interrogation would make more sense. They believe that the Mirror World, is their "perfect reincarnated world". Even though they've never been there, they're being told by the leader that these kidnap victims are "chosen" for the new world, and that their Lady Asai lies beyond as well. That explains why everything is happening...",

"So what's stopping us from finding this guy and ending this once and for all?",

"Well... It's because no one can find him. His home's been empty ever since Asai had died. I suspect he may be in the mirror world, another thing the cultist said is that he's never seen their leader, that he communicates from "beyond" or... Something", this all seemed strange, but this man hiding out in the mirror world made sense, but made no sense at the same time.

"Hmmm... Well at least we know who we're looking for... Thanks, and good work... I think you should take at least one day to rest, you look ready to fall apart", Rui commented.

"I guess...", Kami sighed out of exhaustion before speaking again,

"Investigation is not turning much up anymore... The cultists must have a base of some kind, even if their leader "hasn't been seen", perhaps there we'll be able to find some clue to get to him...", with that all said Kazuki decided to say goodbye and left for his own devices. Rui left eventually as well, leaving Kami and Ayano alone again.

Star Drop Cafe
27/6/2015 Saturday

The tables at this cafe were seeing a slow reduction in customers as lunchtime came to a close. Among those still finishing up, was Mako, Aiko and Akari Yamamoto, and Masahide. Shizuka was on floor at this time. As Masahide began to leave, he was halted momentarily by a few adults, the two in front began to don masks before fully entering, Masahide noticing this turned in surprise before being grabbed by the two that were now behind him after turning his back to them, and was dispatched quickly.

In the cafe meanwhile, a scuffle broke out. Shizuka being the waitress attempted to serve as part of her job, but was taken quite quickly. Aiko was first to jump forward to action, for a moment he seemed to manage something, swiftly punching down one of them before the other smashed him over the head with a baton. As Shizuka was being taken out two of the men jumped for Mako who also fought back. Akari was largely frozen in fear, so were the other people in the restaurant, but pretty soon Mako was being dragged off and the cafe was left in complete shock.

Shinichi Residence > Star Drop Cafe
27/6/2015 Saturday

"... Who was taken?... I see... I'm gonna come too... Alright..."

When Rui arrived to the scene, it was sunset, police barriers were set up all over, Matthew were there first, but pretty soon a few others of the investigation team arrived. Police told them to get back, but Rui explained that they were friends of some of the people who worked and frequented here, so they let them stand a bit closer.

"Rui you...", he turned to Matthew. He seemed pretty distraught.

"The-they took her... She's...", he shook his head then calmed down.

"Shizuka...", oh the waitress... Rui heard that the officers said three kids were taken. Three...?

"Alright let's-"

"We have to get her back",

"Okay but fir-"

"L-let's go, to that-"

"Calm down! We need to calm down. I'll immediately organize we go out tomorrow. It's too late to go tonight... But we'll get them back, we've always done it haven't we?", he assured. He was being quite frantic, did she mean a lot to him? Likely. He knew they were in the same club though.

"Get some rest, we're going first thing tomorrow morning", with that, he had Matthew head to home while he made his walk home making calls. First Kazuki, then Kami, and then so on. Three people... Shizuka he heard from Matthew, but the other two he could not get a name out of the officers, they obviously didn't want to alarm anyone in case it was someone he or the students knew. Well, in any case, looks like he was going to need his rest.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

First I heard of that, but your call Hantu.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

I'm not sure in depth how the Watchers would speak, Lugubrious handled the Watchers and I hadn't exactly kept a close hand on them. I leave that part to you guys.

But yes, the Watchers were the ones who handed you your assignments.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

Vigrid

@Scrapula@Lmpkio

"Archangel Kushiel, it is an honor to have you with us this day", the Angel Champion, commanding this force of Army of Light angels greeted the young-looking archangel, though this individual looked nothing more than a young boy. In actual fact, this was Kushiel. He came here on news that they detected a demonic force, and would like assistance in defending this position. The archangel happened to be passing by, and expressed willingness to lend a hand.

"I see, we are in your debt. Our scouts report a small force of demons, some of our men have come into contact with them already, but some of our other scouts say that much more powerful foes are coming too, and they seem more coordinated", he informed. Soon though, from behind the champion, a young man was being dragged to the front by some angels, he cursed a little but eventually gave in.

"That... I am sorry, that is Gene. He belongs to the Heirarchy, but seeing as he 'appeared' in this city, we thought we could ask for his help, although he seems to be reluctant... In any case, I will lead the defense here, bring Gene with you and try and intercept larger threats if you can. Me and my men will be counting on you", he said.

@I-Am-X

"We have detected a contingent of angelic forces in this area, Vigrid... Normally in our operations, we would ignore them, however... Vigrid is a place where both heaven and hell reign strong. If they get a hold of this place, they will have a strong near-permanent foothold, should our realms eventually come to blows", the words played through Blair's mind as she continued on through the forest, and out into the city. It wasn't hard to find the angels, some demons that were running loose decided to rush in as well... That was becoming a normal occurrence, demons were almost like part of wildlife now. It was startling how quick that was happening though.

Still, she best push on. Based on the direction of troops, both demonic and angelic, the main outpost looks like it might be the skyscraper in the center of the city... Though just as her thoughts were about to move to thinking about getting there, two Light Angels and three Affinities swooped down from on high trying to attack her, but to no avail their surprise attack was thwarted by a series of agile acrobatic flips.

It looks like she wasn't going to get there uncontested.

---------------------------
@kapuchu@Lazo

Their mission was simple, as the Watcher had told them. Stop the angel influence. They can see why after arriving to this city. The Angels were mounting a very solid and organized defense against the random demons that jumped out from the forest, plus Lily and Fenn were both standing on top of a position they held until just moments ago, essentially making a hole in their perimeter. This was going to be their entry point, it looks like the large skyscraper in the center of the city was the source, as if the angels stationed facing directly away from it wasn't a give-away. The humans down below didn't seem to realize there were angels flying in the sky too, but they did notice the demons. Still, those were just minor details. Their job here was simple. Find that angel general, and silence him. As they were informed, this won't completely stop their influence in this city, but it will certainly set them back.

The two were currently able to freely choose their path... Should they take to the ground? There seemed to be a fair number of Affinities patrolling down there, quite numerous, but it would avoid the Light Angels, who were patrolling the rooftops. This was obviously not all their defenses, but for now they would need to consider their options, and should they split up or stay together...?

Mitis Forest

@Zorogami@Zarkun@rivaan

The four were on assignment by the Charred Council, but for Kosara and Roughneck, this was a bonus to them, since there was a job for an extermination here by the DHO, so the two gladly accepted. Kosara on the other hand might have accepted for pleasure reasons, she did enjoy slaying demons after all. Still, the four would find that the forest was big, random Assault demons would appear occasionally, but in small packs of two or three... Occasionally a Chimera would appear and seed some of them, turning them into opponents difficult to approach.

The demons were fairly numerous here in this forest... Plus they seemed to be working together, almost like they were in service of something. There definitely was something big here in this forest. They can decide whether they should split up, or stay together for this mission, if they split up, they might have a better chance of finding their goal more quickly, but that would lend them to being put in more dangerous situations with less people around them... It would be up to them.

---------------------------
@Lmpkio

Just some lowly Assault demons, but as Gideon has observed, they wouldn't let him advance, they didn't seem to attack him immediately, only when he got close, or went a certain way, but they were no challenge in these meager numbers. As he got to a clearing in the forest to decide his next course of action, the morph's words echoed in his mind regarding this mission.

"Our scouts have found something rare, and that is, a demon born here in the human world. Identified as Gorgon, she commands demons of the forest and acts as their queen. She is yet educated on the demon world, so we would like to send someone here as soon as possible. According to our sources, she is a powerful demon too, and would be a fine boon for our campaign here in the human world",

A demon born here in the human world... And not just a half demon, but a full demon. There was more information when he inquired, 3409 said that Gorgon was a child of another demon named Echidna who briefly lived in the forest some years back, before being slain. The forest was huge, and Echidna spread her seeds and her children far and wide, so this was a believable prospect. The Order of the Sword had no trouble travelling through it until recently. It looks like Gorgon may be on the move for one reason or another...

In any case, all he had to do was following the line of demons to her, and see if he can bring Gorgon to his side.

Ancient Library

@ProPro@EnterTheHero@liferusher@Kafka Komedy@Lugubrious

As one of the four would put it, this place was rather atmospheric. Their footsteps quietly echoed, the light of their torches would show the way forward as they managed to observe their surroundings. Roots had grown well into the structures in the entrance area as they descended, shelves seemed to be carved into the wooden and dirt walls, and they even observed some roots to be used as shelves. They lit the torches as they made their way through this dungeon, until finally, they arrived at some kind of hall. Large and circular, in a dome structure, and the center with a skylight, sunlight pouring down into the middle. As the four walked in, they would realize that this is the library that they were looking for. Books lined the shelves and curved aisles that made the room, tables and chairs were strewn about the center, but as they stepped in they would notice that there were a few books on the ground. It looked like they were touched recently too... Maybe one of the scouts...? Well in any case, this looked like a good place to start their search.

This hall was connected to three other areas. Currently they were trying to figure out what the runs over their respective doorways said, before they would make the walk down each of the long hallways, although one of them, Mary managed to figure out. It said roughly "Study". This was the door on the far left. The door on the far right though seemed like it was used more often, so maybe it was a more public area, but there was a giant double door in the center, plus what Mary could recognize as some seals... Maybe a forbidden library? It looked risky, so perhaps they should attempt that area after they were done with the others.

<Snipped quote by Zarkun>

Pfft. You're no hunter. Though theoretically we could split the twins up, hahaha.

@ProPro

DHO has the info which is why it's listed there, but anyone could walk in on Devil Arm Recovery quests to keep things fair.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

Another reminder for all players.

If you haven't added your character to this sheet yet, then please do so. I'll need your names to give you your points.

I've got just two characters to assign a mission right now, most of them seem quite packed.

By the way, missions like Rare Demon Hunt and Recover Devil Arm must be done in your free time, which becomes available after this. Mostly since those missions will net you some kind of buff or weapon, so you'll need to go out of your way for them.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

Alright, updated. Those characters if they were part of another faction already will still be part of that faction, but will serve the Charred Council mainly. Those players will be allowed to take missions as they see fit, but if assigned missions directly by the council, they must take it, as normally those missions will pertain to story.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

I'd like to know exactly everyone who has joined the Charred Council. I can recall some, but it's still a mess in my head, so I'd like someone to straighten it out and give a clear list.

I'm currently assigning missions.

Also as of now, IncredibleBee is no longer part of this RP.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

And updated missions sheet. Kushiel is assigned Demon Assault.
