Note: Read before joining.
[spoiler]Notice 1: This RP is watched over by the Takamagahara System. If you perform any action that is considered to be god-modding, or otherwise not allowed, you will be issued a warning, and the T3 will rewrite time to undo your actions. Repeated warnings may get you banned from the RP. Remember to play nice!
Notice 2: In order to participate in this RP your character [b]cannot[/b] survive underwater. Whether it's from the extreme pressure, the lack of air, or both, leaving the city outside of official transport is not survivable.
Notice 3: This is a pseudo shared RP, and talking with other players is allowed. However, to keep things organized, please do not just hop into another player's comment chain and start chatting them up. Instead, tell me you want to talk with them, and I will create a separate comment chain for the convo.
You will go through most events in the RP alone, but Key Encounters will be shared.
Notice 4: You can join this part without participating in the previous parts; I can provide you with a summary.
If you have any questions, please contact your local RP admin! (that's me!)[/spoiler]
"So, now we know." Kokonoe said, leaning over a table. You, and most of the others who were attacked had been gathered up here. "That's why Aubrey wants to take out my PFD Units. Somehow, I guess she can control them. And as I'm sure everyone's noticed, they're not a threat to be taken lightly."
"We won't need to worry about that." Rho said. "Because I'm going to kill her. It was bad enough that she was killing my sisters, but controlling them like this? Turning them into.. Whatever that was. She crossed a line. And she's going to regret it."
"You're staying with us. As far as we know, she's only able to control dead PFDs, not live ones, and not dead humans. Our best bet, then, is to keep the PFDs off the front lines."
"You want me to do nothing!?"
"Precisely."
"How can you expect me to do nothing when-"
A hologram of SAYU appeared next to Kokonoe. "Hello, everyone, my name is SAYU!"
Kokonoe looked at the thing with an annoyed look on her face. "Aifos, what is your mermaid doing here?"
Aifos shrugged.
"I've been issued an important city wide broadcast from [Moderator: Kokonoe]!" SAYU said, happily.
"I never issued a broadcast.."
The SAYU hologram vanished, and in its place was one of Aubrey. "Hello there, citizens of Aria. As I'm sure you're aware, there is a murderer left loose on the streets, and our [i]glorious leaders[/i] have come to the conclusion that the best course of action to deal with this threat is to lock you all up down here with them. You must be terrified, but I want you to know that you don't need to be. I am here to protect you, and under my protection, you have nothing to fear.
This situation is no longer in the hands of Aifos and Kokonoe, I will be taking over from here My name is Venus, and I am a goddess of the Divine Trinity. I will protect you from this fiend prowling the streets. I will succeed where Aifos and Kokonoe have failed, and bring them to justice. I have brought many brave soldiers down from the surface, and they will save us all, just as my mother, the goddess Lamia, will save the world.
And Aifos, if you're listening and haven't already abandoned us down here, let's not make this difficult on us, hm? Get in my way, and we'll stop you along with this murderer." Aubrey's hologram vanished, and SAYU reappeared.
"Thank you for listening to this SAYU-Broadcast! Bye bye!" The hologram vanished.
"..Venus..? That's got to be a bluff, right?" Aifos asked, turning to Kokonoe. "She can't actually be Venus--Venus is dead!"
Kokonoe closed her eyes, thinking for a moment with a silent look of concern on her face. "Whether it's true or not, our goal is the same. We'll find her, and put an end to all of this. I doubt she's going to be in the gardens again, so we'll have to fan out and find where she's hiding ourselves."
Joshua looked over at you, with a smirk on his face, twirling a bracelet around his finger. "Be careful out there, [i]detective[/i]. If she really is, Venus, then she's just thrown her cover out into the open. That means I doubt she'll be holding back if you fight her."
[spoiler]It's up to you where you want to explore in the city, though if you find yourself lost, you can always ask for a hint. I'll do my best to explain the possible routes from room to room, but I also have a map that should be linked above (thank you, Red!), so feel free to ask for that whenever you need it. Currently you are in the Observation Deck, and there is only on exit, leading to the Grand Hall.
Feel free to chat with everyone before you leave. The people in the room are;
Aifos, Kokonoe, Lambda, Rho, Theta, Tager, Fukua, and Joshua.[/spoiler]
