Who: Sphinx and the trial representatives
Where: The place beyond the door of the Room of Ceremonies.
When: The starting day of the trial.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Don't know.
Summary: After the first part of the first trial begins, and everyone is brought to the ceremony, each character is led individually into the place beyond the door to meet Sphinx, who will give them their trials.

[ooc: As helpful instructions, the order (though it doesn't have to be done in order OOCly, ICly, story-wise, it will) of people will be Mitch, Light, Mello, Blythe, Flauros, L, Jazz, Frank, Wesker and Maria. This is the order that the characters will be called in and given their riddle by Sphinx.

Every character is expected to post to THIS, not to other comments in this page, to start interaction with Sphinx, so that every character has a 'thread' with Sphinx within this page. This is to speed things along so that everyone gets their riddle in a somewhat vaguely timely manner, even if other people's schedules make them faster or slower to respond.

Characters will not be able to interact with anyone other than Sphinx in this thread, as Sphinx will be the only one present aside from the character entering the room, always.

The following is what occurs whenever someone steps inside.]

( Sphinx isn't called Sphinx because she's a Sphinx! )

Who: Lucifer, Metatron, the trial representatives
Where: A mysterious location Metatron and Lucifer teleported everyone to.
When: The starting day of the trial.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Don't know.
Summary: The first part of the first trial begins, and everyone is brought to the ceremony.
It is assumed that Metatron and Lucifer take their representatives, with an explanation, to this mysterious location, at the start of the first day.

[ooc note: Because this thread is going to feature twelve characters, treat this thread the way the party in Asgard was treated - characters don't have to reply to each other and go in turns, but there should be some semblance of interaction, unless your character would just sit and wait to be called.]

( The Official Ceremony of the First Trial Begins! )

[ooc: The latin spoken by Metatron roughly translates to "God or Satan, fate will decide, allow the true leader to rise and become the first and last creator. Let no one be marred permanently, and no soul murdered." The latin spoken by Lucifer roughly translates to "God or Satan, chaos will choose, let Satan win and disorder be unleashed so that disease will spread and torment murder us all." Please forgive my rough, terrible Latin, but I tried. If there are any errors it's my fault, NOT Metatron's or Lucifer's.]

Who: Maria and Vincent
When: Before the Trial Begins
Where: Pool area in Asgard
Rating: PG-13 to be safe
