so i just got here

and yeah i got the whole welcoming spiel so can it

i got separated from my friend somehow but hes gotta be here somewhere. if u see a kid named gon that wears all green and is way to cheerful lemme know.

oh and what happens if u just skip school? theyre telling me i have to go to school when the new semester starts. ive never went to school before though and it sounds like a waste of time.


[Something about the tight-knit government around here, how he arrived, and everything they knew about him just rubbed Killua the wrong way. Normally he wouldn't even care to ask, but he has to wonder if there's some ridiculously disproportionate punishment for playing hooky. He's been here all of a day and he already doesn't trust the place.

The last thing he remembers from home was using Accompany On with Gon. By all means they shouldn't have been separated, and yet they were, which is why he's convinced his friend has to be here somewhere. Not that anyone at the base would tell him.]

Well, it seems the Porter has yet again brought in new faces. Welcome to this world, even if not under the best circumstances for all. My name is Dominique Destine and I’m a scientist working for Stark Technologies and also the new Biology teacher at The Xavier School for imPorts – worry not, I’m not particularly strict. [ yeaaahhh, she kind of is. ] Regardless, I welcome anyone to attend my classes if you feel that you’d benefit from them but do expect your knowledge to be tested eventually.

[ now that is out of the way ] Anyway, I know this place has become the epicenter of worlds coming together and as someone who came from one where Humans are the sole rational species, it fascinates me to see other species and races as intelligent – if not even more – as humans. I can’t begin to imagine what it’s like to now be living among us, Homo Sapiens [ yeah, she can ] but I’d love to know your opinions on the planet and our culture, the differences, what you might find lacking or simply far too weird and different from your own. Anything that comes to mind, no need to hold back. [ at all. ]

Lastly – it seems the Porter enjoys irony, thus I was given a kind of magic as my power. It’s fairly useless [ it isn’t. ] most of the time, but I have been wondering if it’s possible to fuse the magic of two different imPorts together. Those who have magic, would you be willing to experiment with me and see how far are we able to get?

Thank you for your time. [ Dominique nods and turns off the feed ]

ATTENTION IMPORTS!


After recent events, effective in June we are implementing the following new security measures:

As of June 1st 2015, all imPorts, Registered, Unsettled or otherwise, will not require prior permission from the United States government to travel abroad and instead will be able to utilize their tattoos as passports. When imPorts are to check in at the airport, they will be required to do so under a special censor designated for them and cooperate with airport security. Unregistered imPorts will not be considered an American citizen if they are to travel out of the country, and as such are strongly advised to behave themselves while in another country's jurisdiction if at their own risk they are leaving American soil and protection. Should any imPort who is not Registered find themselves in legal trouble outside American borders, they will be subjected to the extent of the law as the foreign country sees fit. Any imPort who is out of the US for two weeks or more, however, will have their statuses altered and considered AWOL.

In order to encourage and foster better communications between law enforcement and imPorts, effective immediately the Federal Government is granting official charge of handling Unsettled vigilantism to Registered imPorts in the hopes of curbing this behavior for the time being. Local authorities will also continue to make steps to allow for accessible employment and opportunities to advance for imPorts working within law enforcement or similar occupations, including allowing those imPorts to form their own committees.

As many imPorts are aware, your local imPort Ambassadors have received funding for imPort-specific training facilities in their respective cities. We encourage imPorts to take full advantage of these facilities in order to help them understand their brand new powers and practice combative and defensive techniques. We would like to encourage those with military backgrounds to assist in this venture, as well as having them cover information on duck and cover methods and fallout shelters.

As of Wednesday evening, former imPort Affairs Liaison Captain Parc Holiday will be released from psychiatric care and returning to his home. He will not be returning to his post in Cape Canaveral. Due to his fragile condition, he will also not be accepting visitors. Should anyone wish to get in contact with him they are requested to wait an appropriate period of time to allow him to settle back into his home.

[There is no greeting, just a shot of Sabriel's face, all seriousness and barely contained fury. When she speaks, there is both calm authority and something deeply urgent in her tone. She's at the porter in Heropa, getting ready to step inside. She's dressed in the clothes she arrived in- right down to her surcoat, with the sword she commissioned from Revan at her hip.]

I need every imPort with experience fighting the Dead to come to Maurtia Falls- I don't know how many Dead he managed to raise, but hopefully the canal will keep them on one side of the city. If the Dead he's raised follow the rules of my world, they won't be able to cross running water. Their presence may cause technology to break- and guns will not be effective. If he's raised Dead with physical bodies, they'll need to be completely destroyed to keep them down. If he's managed to create Shadow Hands- bodiless spirits... we'll need magic to stop them.

I'm going to find Ma-Melkor, and take my bells back. Once that's done, I'll be able to put down whatever he's raised easily enough.

As for everyone living in Maurtia Falls- [Sabriel takes a deep breath, and starts reciting the precautions she'd recited in class, back in Ancelstierre.]

Be inside by nightfall. Lock all doors and windows. Deny entry to strangers. Shed light inside and out. Prepare candles and lanterns for when the electricity fails. Wear silver. If caught outdoors, find running water.

May the Charter be with us all.

[ooc: Sabriel will reply to comments, but may cut things short if she feels it's going nowhere.]

[Melkor is in his element.

Clad in his armor once more, he has a bell in one hand, one of Sabriel's, and the device in another. This isn't nice Melkor- his eyes are alight as the sounds of the undead can be heard around him. Fire glows in the background of the Maurtia Falls district but he just throws his head back and laughs.

This is going better than he could have hoped so far even if the creatures he's summoned have proved more difficult to control than expected.]


It is time for a proper introduction! I am Lord Melkor of the Valar- first among the gods, lord of Arda and Master of Fates!

[He brought the bell up, the metal gleaming in the light of the fire. He loves a touch of the dramatic after all.]

And now I claim my dominion upon this world, to shape it into my vision as I see fit. Perhaps there are those among you who believe you could stop me but Manwe is not here to save you- the Valar have no interest in your pitiful existence. There are none who will come to your aid against me this time.

[Melkor's grin is cruel as he brings the device close to his face. This time he has a message for one specific person.]

You were foolish to trust me, Sabriel but I appreciate all you have taught me of your necromancy. Due to your assistance, I will once more have an army worthy of serving me!

[The video clicks off with the sound of Melkor bringing down the bell to ring it loudly. He has a great deal to accomplish now.]


[ooc: Melkor won't be responding but there will be a log following shortly!]

[Tired of the new people on the network yet? Too bad, there's an annoyed guy with a lot on his mind and if he doesn't get it out he might explode. Or punch out a wall. Either way talking is the better alternative.]

It's a pretty nice racket going on here, I've got to admit. Bring people in, tell them they can't be sent back, then politely ask for their cooperation in exchange for a cozy life and no effort job. Or is that last one unique in my case? It'd be surprising if it was, seems they'd want to keep everyone as happy as possible to get them to sign on as glorified weapons.

[There's a pause, though it's far from silent. The frantic clacking of a keyboard fills the space of speech for a moment before he goes on.]

How do they even decide on these things anyway? Feels like a bad joke, or an insult, maybe both. I can only write about the Illuminati sanctioned marriage of Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster so many times before it gets old.

[Maybe he should stop rambling and actually say something constructive like normal people would. This is a glorified social network for the misplaced super-powered, might as well be social. Or try to, at least.]

Right, right, Alex Mercer, stuck in De Chima, nice city, quieter than what I'm used to. Do things ever getting exciting around here?
