Endgame 1

Endgame Dungeon 1

The logs will go here when the dungeon is complete. This is a housekeeping post.

Social Links:
- Finish doing any updates to your SLinks now, so they are on the record.
- The team link should be Rank 9 or as close to it as humanly possible. Rank 10 is perfectly fine if you feel like it's appropriate for your character.
- If you need to make an adjustment to someone's Slink based on a thread that is not yet finished, this is acceptable. Just try to, you know, finish it later.
- Please do not frantically backdate a rank 10 just because you feel the need to get it in; there will be an opportunity upcoming. You may frantically backdate then, if you prefer. It shouldn't have a huge impact from now to then.

OOC/IC Stuff:
- The direction and specifics of the plot have changed rather drastically since the first encounter with the OMGels. When the dungeon runs I will have to ask for your patience and understanding should discrepancies arise, as they most likely will. I'm not making any specific retcons at this time, but please proceed with this in mind, and feel free to doublecheck apparent discrepancies in OOC chat as we run.
- Please don't ask about Kanaye or Kazuya IC. I really don't even know.

Plot Recap:
- The following deaths have taken place over the past year and are attributable to Paradise (in order):
  • Yoshimi's Ex
  • Sato Kei
  • Aomori
  • Seiji
- Sato Kei and Yoshimi's Ex are confirmed persona users. Sato Kei was the wildcard.
- OMGels are responsible for throwing the team into Paradise one by one.
- All OMGels have some kind of "human form" or presence in the real world. This is not their natural form.
- Known OMGels include: Seiji, Fujiwara.
- Suspected OMGels include: Ishino, Ozaki.
- Seiji/Raphael defected to the team's side, stating that the other OMGels sought order and the coming of Millenium City, which was being eternally prevented by virtue of the Persona Users. According to Raphael, this would take place in the real world. He was murdered in Paradise by Gabriel despite the protection of Renju's Persona, Prometheus.
- Seiji did not want to assist in whatever the OMGel's were plotting, but also refused to divulge much information regarding their plans, whereabouts, and identities.

FOLLOWING DUNGEON

In the fleeting moment between waking and sleeping, there's a flash of pale blue light, bright enough to leave an impression and brief enough to leave you wondering if you saw it at all. You wake with the distinct feeling that you are forgetting something and pause at the nearest window on the way out your room. There's full view of Nanakamado from here - not the school, but the entire fortress. The crystalline structure at the center reaches up and pierces the clouds as always, refracting light on to them for an almost heavenly glow. You glance at the clock, next, and you are overwhelmed with real, palpable fear at the realization that you're already late for class.

MILLENIUM CITY - The Tranquil City

Millenium city isn't really about order as much as it is about stability. It's a "tranquil" city, a world where no one would have the drive or the means to challenge their shadow in Paradise, because people accept the cards they are dealt.

Time hasn't appeared to move, but the team have lost their personae and forgotten Paradise, eachother, and themselves. Those who died in Paradise have returned as though they have never died. Only those who died by Paradise in the past year are returned to life - Kozue's grandmother and Reizo's father, for instance, are still dead.

The cast members lose the will to try to be anything more than what they are, shape their own future, and be true to themselves. They find themselves more complacent and more afraid of stepping out of line, or convinced that there is no point in doing so. You decide how to play this, but in a general sense, think of it as resetting your character's development.

Everything in Millenium City is rote, school included. There is a very going-through-the-motions feeling to everything. At the center of the city rests the Prism Tower, where "the angels" live - Micheal, Uriel, and Gabriel. They are known to citizens as the city's sworn protectors and enforcers. Prism Tower is supernatural in nature and populated with shadows such as Dominion, though the rest of the town is relatively normal, and Dominions are considered law enforcement above the police.

Surrounding Prism Tower is a fortress and prison, where Raphael the Betrayer, understood by everyone as Very Very Bad, is held. Political dissidents are also locked away here. Also at the foot of the Prism Tower is Nanakamado, the most prestigious school in Millenium City, said to be blessed by the angels themselves.
