first case

[TEXT]

I've been told that usually recent arrivals announce the few details they remember about themselves over the network. It seems like a rather pointless tradition to uphold, seeing as we're all suffering from severe cases of retrograde amnesia.

Then there's the anemoi--what exactly do they do, besides function as currency and an exchange for our memories? In fact, how did our memories disappear in the first place? I don't see any reason for the "gods" to knock us unconscious and somehow cause our amnesia.

[So after that lovely text has been sent out to the network, Sherlock is off to familiarize himself with his surroundings. And by that I mean he's wandering around the town, memorizing its layout and anything notable about it. To anyone who's been here a while, the way he's analyzing the place screams "newbie", but at the same time, he's somehow managed not to get himself lost.

Want to talk with him? Careful, you might be surprised by what he has to say to you.]

Justice League is pretty reliable. Professional heroes. Also a guy named Ike really knows how to handle a sword, and works as a bodyguard if you need to spend time out of the city.

Number one on the avoid list right now is this creepy clown guy called the Joker. Other than that I haven't seen anyone truly dangerous. Just the monsters.

Is this "Justice League" essentially the police force here, or is the actual police too incompetent to keep the peace by themselves? I highly suspect the latter.

What sort of monsters? [He wants to get samples and everything.]

Essentially yes. The whole place is kind of a ghost town, so there's a reason for the police to be short-handed. Doesn't make it any more forgivable for sending confirmed amnesiacs with no past after the bad guys, but hey, they pay our rent.

If you want to know about monsters, it's Dr. Van Richden you need to talk to. He's the one that's opened a project to build a full database on all of them. It's not exactly comprehensive right now, but it's a start. He'd also want to hear about any beastie you happen to eventually recognize.

That happens more often than you'd think.

Their state is rather lamentable, if they employ people who could easily turn to crime if they remembered that they had been engaged in criminal activities before.

Thank you. I'll keep it in mind.
