You -- yes, you, the person behind the keyboard -- wake up in Paragon City. What now?

Would you grab your purse and go play tug-of-war with an Outcast?

 

Stand at the bus stop and wait until the heat-death of the universe?

 

Hang out at Terra Volta hoping for an Origin?

 

Go steal a magic artifact from "Butterfingers" Azuria?

lol! Or say "You've wasted 450 hours of your life in this game."

That would be terrifying. The criminal to normal person ratio seems to be like 10 to 1. I would try to get out ASAP and would try to be very stealthy about it.

Obviously I'd just get in my car where I'm 100% safe. I can just drive in circles all day, and there are literally no gas stations anywhere in the city, so no need for gas. Even a Stone Armor tank in granite armor sitting in the middle of the road couldn't stop me!

*blink* wtf!

Turn around and look back at the "screen" and ask, "Okay what did you just do?"

 

Hmmm no answer so while practicing social distancing to an obsessive degree make my way to Pocket D.  Get a stiff drink (or three).

 

Much better now!  Just wait for the server to reboot and ... OH MY what if I don't wake up at home and just blink out of existence!

 

Wait a second what is my security level, do I even have one.  Have I swapped with one of my Avatars?

 

Wait I've got it!  I have a cell phone I can give the next person who calls a mission.  Tell them they must escort me safely around town for a while.  I'll promise I'll behave 👹.

 

Jeesuz I've been auto completed.  Who's running this!!!!?

 

WAIT!  "The servers are being shut down for emergency maintenance

I think it's known to be about 55' required social distance in Paragon?

 

25' with a Stealth IO "mask" but I don't think they'll take my Influence.  Gosh, rough world when I realize a civvy can't earn influence, which they need to protect themselves from the constant muggings - or at least hide from them slightly better as mentioned.

 

Paragon's Social Disorder exposed!  The Influential get more influential!  Tonight at 6.

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. It's not like you can get to the character creation screen from in-game!

 

I guess it depends on whether you are in the game, or in a parallel universe where Paragon City is an actual place.

 

I'd hope for the latter, but that universe is a bit odd. Terminal velocity is low enough that a fall at that speed is something you can shake off. Sometimes contacts can give you stuff over the phone. Elevators only go to one floor, max. And people can change their clothes right out in plain view of everyone, instantly, with no suitcase in sight.

 

I'd still take it if I could.

Oh, that's right!

Remember to email @Yomo right away!

 

  1. Find a University
  2. Borrow a computer, email @Yomo.
  3. Then find a bank that isn't currently being robbed. (NB: This may take a while.)
  4. Convert Yomo's generosity into hard cash.
  5. Profit!

Run to Icon, buy a cute skirt, boots, and one of those tight, low-cut cleavage display tops.

Find Ghost Widow.

If I have enough plot power to be sent to another world, I clearly have enough plot power that this would mean I have joined the ranks of the world's many supers.  So step one is figuring out my AT and powersets, I guess.

No need to fight over her, folks! One of you can pursue her in Croatoa, the other in Pocket D.
