1. First Day At Falner
You have just arrived at Falner Estate, a sprawling, beautiful, 400-hectare co-located space between Britain, Germany, and the Philippines, and the main base of Netsach. The flora and fauna in the area gives both a sense of familiarity as it looks at first glance like things you’ll find on Earth, and a weird sense of otherworldliness. Given the size of the place, the Estate is less of a compound and more like a town unto itself. The older buildings within the estate are gothic in their construction, and clear throwbacks to 19th Century Europe. The newer facilities, however, sport cutting edge contemporary designs that were clearly inspired by Fourth World architecture and technology.

If you want a better idea on what can be found on the estate, you can refer to this link.


2. A Day On The Job
You are pushing papers at Methuselah, doing research at the Arcanum, or going out on patrol -- whatever it is that you're doing, it's just another day for you as a Hunter of the Vigil.


3. Let's Head Down to Haven
Find yourself itching for a night out on the town? Why not head over to Haven, the classy nightclub that looks like a large, monolithic black building with no visible windows from the outside and the name of the club emblazoned in bold, white letters on one side.

Haven is located in Makati City, and is open to the public (especially the local supernatural community), but you might want to prepare yourself to wait in line for a very, very long time – unless you’re a Hunter, of course.

Falner’s Maenad Division holds office on top of Haven, as does Ordo Daywalker. Some of Haven’s staff also live above the night club.


4. The Awakening
Want to tag out your character's origin story? Set the stage and let's see where things go.

[Now, there's an interesting person. Something about you tells him that she's definitely, definitely not like the others in this club. Something about you screams DANGER in flashing red and blue lights.

So, naturally, he approaches you, beer in both hands and one for you.]


Guten Abend, miss. I would offer a lovely lady this drink so we could speak, if that isn't so forward?

Hypnotic Allure: 7 successes. Roll Resolve + Composure. XD

[ Turning the moment you come around, and smiling with just one lifted eyebrow when she sees what you have.

Well, well, well. What do you we have here? ]


Guten Abend. [ You'll note that she speaks like a native. In fact, she's now going to respond to you in fluent German. ] Offer me that drink and more besides, and you might just have me for the evening. If that isn't so forward.

[Was it the beer? It can't be, right? Right? I don't get drunk, right?

So goes his thought process, before it careens wildly into a tailspin and crashes somewhere between his eyes. He has literally never been floored by a woman this way before.

It was all he could manage not to have his mouth hang open like some sad, unsexed puppy. But only just. Hell, it took a whole lot out of him just to rip his eyes off of you and not stare, and hand you the beer.

Shaking his head almost sheepishly, eyes closed, as if to clear the cobwebs in his head.]


Ach, please, excuse my manners. You are quite unlike anyone I have met before.

[Translation: I have not wanted so bad to ignore all sense of social propriety and fuck someone over the bar before.]

[ What an adorable puppy. ]

It's all right. I'm rather used to hearing people tell me that.

[ Modesty? What the hell's that? ]

Vriska. You are?
