CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING--

TEST DRIVE MEME
Are you thinking about apping to to Cape & Cowl, but you want to get a feel of the setting and how your character will fit in it? Then you’ve come to the right place! Pick any of the following scenarios below or feel free to make up your own, and don’t be afraid to throw yourself at anyone’s thread, either!
And remember to have fun!
1. As you exit the Porter Building, the ambient noises you heard, so faint back inside where you found yourself at the center of glowing platform alone – save for the black screen and the female voice who greeted you – erupt in every direction. Every corner you look is bustling with people and cars and bicycles; people going about their everyday life, unaware you’re one of them: an imPort.
2. Or perhaps your bizarre behaviour or appearance catches their attention. Maybe it’s the communicator you picked up before leaving. Either way, several Cityzens headed your way come to a full stop immediately, each one eyeing you differently. Some looks outright afraid, others seem intrigued, and then there are the others whose surprise fades quickly and they carry on past you without as much a second glance.
3. Confused? The Network seems like a good place to start with soliciting information. There appear to be three functions for you to access: AUDIO, VIDEO, and TEXT. Make some friends while you’re at it!
4. Maybe you’re just thrilled to be here and help. The night time is a great time to scope out the underbelly of the City and its criminals. There’s always something going on in its more troubled corners: breaking and entering, drugs or arms trafficking, an attempting kidnapping... the list goes on. The question is: what will you do, Hero?
5. Make up your own scenario, if you wish! You may have discovered the Porter has granted you the ability to make it hail cats. Or that your power of super speed is gone entirely. Maybe you’ve noticed the Statue of Liberty’s sporting a new look.

It depends on your definition of "hero". It's all quite abstract, isn't it? It all depends on who you talk to, what you stand for, what your motives are, your intentions... In the end, who is a hero, after all?
[He turns his head]
I stand for what's fair. [Given all the deals and exchanges he was involved in] I take that was enough for the "Porter" to call me such.
[There's a small gesture with his cane]
What of you?

Who can say? One man's hero is another's menace. I come from a world where the title 'hero' has a certain weight to it... it leaves quite the mantle to uphold. It seems many here doubt the implication; some can barely even fight.
But the Porter surely has a reason for its whims, no?
[ At the gesture, Kirei gives a moment's pause, and his smile spreads. ]
I am simply a man who wants his questions answered.

And this place. Are you getting your questions answered?
no subject
[ It's not as simple as a desire as it may appear. ]
It is easier, for now, for me to answer yours.

Correct me if I'm wrong-- We are brought here as "heroes", with no real goal in mind and no way home. Are we to accept this and live life here... until when, exactly?
