Alright, fine. I'll admit it already. I lost the pen. Sheesh!

All right, all right, I get it! Now whoever it was who decided it would be a good idea to bring me here, I would be very glad if you'd be so kind as to put. Me. Back!

...

[clears his throat]

Ah. Well then. Since it seems I won't be going anywhere anytime soon, I suppose I should introduce myself. Basil of Baker Street's the name, a pleasure to meet all of you. If any of you might have any information that could help me deduce this situation I'd really be quite grateful if you'd produce it for me.

Hey, who painted the city? It's pretty cool lookin' now, though it could still use some improvements.

[Ed sets down the journal, still recording, and a strange sound comes through the mic.]

There. That's better!

'Sup citizens. Static's the name and I think I've spoken to a few of you before. I'm probably not gonna use this very much but I wanted to let people know that I'm out here. A hero's gotta keep his secrets after all.

Looks like my pal Virgil's here though so he might be able to help ya out in getting in touch with me if you are in need of any heroic services.

I'll be in touch.

Attention dear citizens and visitors of Paixao,

Such a pity the mayor met a rather untimely end. But, well, all things must come to an end, mustn't they?

However, where there are ends, there are also beginnings.

There is a new order here in this city.

I, Maleficent, Mistress of all Evil, lay claim to this city. My will is now law.

Any who dare to oppose shall be dealt with swiftly and with no mercy, but let us hope it should not come to that, shall we?

[Screened from Organization members.]

For anyone interested in rescuing a four-year-old or any of the other abducties from the Organization, I am currently on my way to City Hall, and I am going to do whatever necessary to find either Nina Tucker or evidence as to where she is. I said this on a public post earlier and I think that's the reason my other ward and my arm were just stolen. I'm pretty sure this was supposed to slow me down, which means that I am on the right track. If anyone wants to help turn City Hall up-side-down, we'd welcome the help.

Dear Paixaoans,

First of all, I just wanna say, all that stuff that's happened lately? You know, with... You know who and stuff? Yeah, let's just forget that ever happened, alright? I know a lot of people aren't happy with me, but with that little girl missing and Organization XIII on the move again, we got more important things ta worry about.

In the past, the Organization has performed several kidnappings. Victims were often, if not all, visitors like you n' me. What they endured... Uh, well, let's just say it wasn't pretty. All victims were tortured and used as experiments. If you're unfamiliar with any of this, past posts that can be found on the message board explain much about these kidnappings, experments, and the Organization. They also have information about these Heartless and Nobodies runnin' around lately so check 'em out if you got the chance, they're worth it.

Recently there has been an increase in reported missing visitors. Based off past, recent, and now successful attempts at kidnapping, the Organization can easily be placed responsible. AND! we got witnesses too! So just try gettin' outta that one!

So, because of this, it's best ta be alert. I've been goin' on, n' on, n' on for quite some time 'bout how dangerous they are. You should know what kinda threat they are by now too. It's best to keep away from them, but if you really want to settle things and most importantly help us retrieve those kidnapped, you should contact the General here.

At this point, only so many can be confirmed kidnapped. But this does not leave me to believe there are not more. Because it could be anyone, I will be making a list of everyone reported missing. If you know of anyone who's recently disappeared, let me know so I can add them to this list. Also, if you see or hear from any of the following you should report it immediately.

Missing Persons

Repliku
Nina
Spirit
Cloud Strife
Kariya
Sara Sidle


Just as before, everyone should be on the look out for suspicious activity. Don't travel alone and spread the word of these disappearances to keep everyone informed. Anyone with information should report it to me immediately so that we can prevent further kidnappings and finally put the Organization to justice.

Sincerely,

You Know Who

A little girl has been kidnapped by the Organization and I am trying to find her. If you know anything about the abductions, if anyone has been abducted, please tell me anything and everything you remember about it. Any tiny detail could be useful.

There is a fine line between the acceptable waging of war and cruelty for cruelty's sake.

Organization XIII has crossed that line.

They have kidnapped. They have tortured. They have wrought injury after injury upon the visitors and citizens of this city. But not until recently have they attacked someone who had no possible way to defend herself, someone who had done them no perceivable wrong except for existing.

I am now calling upon all able-bodied people within the city to rise in response to this heinous act. It is time to strike back at our captors, the members of this Organization.

A little girl by the name of Nina has been kidnapped by The Organization. I don't think I have to tell you she's scared and, unfortunetly, hurt. This is the Organization we're talking about here. Her friend is currently looking for her. Is there anyone out there who could help him... Help her? She's just a little girl.

To My Adoring Public, People, animals, and whatever else it out in the audience tonight,

It's been awhile, hu? I've been pretty busy, probably like the rest of you with everything that's been goin' on in the city lately. Those monsters stompin' about are turning out to be a real handful. I've heard there's quite a number of folks tryin' to take care of them out there though. Here's hopin' the best for them. If you're not familiar with Sin, you should direct yourself to the post made here by my good 'ol pal. He's got quite the history on them. He's the guy you're gunna wanna go to if you've got any questions about 'em.

Another guy made a useful post on the message board concerning missing people recently. We haven't had one of those since the kidnappings so you might want to take a look at it here if you've lost someone or are looking for somebody. There could be someone out there looking for you without you even knowing it.

Not much has changed regarding the Organization since I last checked up on them. It hasn't stopped some people from speaking with them either. Go figure. They're still a threat and as dangerous as ever. They're a manipulative bunch of liars who care for no one but themselves. Heartless and Nobodies are also considered dangerous. To avoid sounding like a broken record player, whatever that is, my last post has information regarding both the Organization and these Heartless and Nobodies. If you haven't checked it out, it might be a good idea.

So the big thing on the agenda today is the recent news concerning the citizens in Paixao. Apparently guests like us can, and have
turned into citizens. I'm talkin' about your hair turning blonde hair, your eyes blue, and your memory of life outside the city gradually fading away. Citizens are seemingly shy 'bout the subject and afraid to share much information, but more then one case has appeared in the city. I'm not too sure what could of become of the animals in the city, but I have my guesses.

In all the time I've been here, and it's been quite some time, trust me, I've never seen anyone make this transformation. But who knows how long citizens who claim to have once been guests have been here. I'm hoping to find out more information about this soon and, as always, will
accept any new information involving anything you think could be important.

I think that's about it.

Sincerely,

You Know Who

I was wondering if there was anyone around here who had experience in interfacing mechanics with the human nervous system. My prosthetic limbs are very close to breaking down on me entirely and I really need new ones. The ports they fit into are still in good condition and will translate nerve impulses into something that a machine can read, but the limbs themselves are nearly shot. I thought, being that the visitors here come from so many different worlds of varying technology, I might be able to find a mechanic that could build me a new set.

For your convenience and by way of potential payment, I can fabricate virtually any inorganic material and simple organic compounds quickly and without waste. I can also fabricate parts if you tell me exactly what you need, but I don't have the mechanical expertize to actually put something like this together. If there is anyone with the ability who would be willing to help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

I realize there have been many posts on the journals and otherwise as of late...asking about where their friends and family could be. Seeing as some of these can be buried under other journal entries, it would keep all of Paixao more organized if there could be one master entry for all missing persons.

I have taken it upon myself to aid people looking for their friends and family here. If you'd like, you may post here with a description and/or pictures of your loved ones that you're looking for. (I can make do with either.) If they arrive here and I spot them, or someone else sees them, I'll inform you of their arrival. Your name would be helpful so I may contact you quickly.

I'll do this for free, if there are no objections.

There will be a list kept here, updated daily to make sure that everything is kept under control. If possible, I may update it even more frequently. If anyone sees these people, please tell me so I may strike their name from the list and inform those looking for them.

List [as of 8/18/08] )

[ooc: yeah, you can link to previous journals or posts if your character doesn't feel like rattling off descriptions to L. the man's keeping himself occupied by helping the public. do as you please, paixao!]

Dear Paixaoans,

Yeah missed me, hu? I thought you might. I'm a pretty lovable character, you know. Not to fear, I ain't got any plans on going anywhere any time soon. I know my adoring public needs me and as long as they do I will continue to-- What? No, Pumbaa, not now. I'm in the middle of somethin'... No, I didn't. He did it himself... Hey, that's not my fault. If he... Look, we're not having this conversation right now. I'm busy.

Eh... You'll have to excuse my associate. He has a terrible habit of INTERRUPTING ME WHEN I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING IMPORTANT.

Ahem! Anywho... It's come to my attention that a lot of you have been makin' contact with certain members of the known threat that is Organization XIII. Allow me to remind you that these people are extremely dangerous, and should by no means be trusted n' any way. We're talkin' 'bout the same guys who kidnapped many citizens just like you n' me and conducted all those nasty experiments on 'em; tortured 'em!

Recent attempts by The Organization at kidnapping have also been noted. This forces me to also remind you all ta be on the look out for suspicious activity and travel in numbers. It's safer that way. Organization members have taken on a change of wardrobe now that their black coats are so recognizable so they may not be as easy to spot unless you're familiar with 'em. If there are any artists out there willin' to sketch 'em out to help others familiarize themselves with them, that'd be real helpful.

Organization XIII itself consists of thirteen members, each goin' by a particular number (example: Larxene is also known number XII). All members are also known ta have at least one 'X' in their names. Though, when they approach you they'll probably introduce themselves by a different name. Their greatest known interest is collecting hearts, although their experiments involvin' two elements called 'Light' n' 'Darkness' have shown others.

Some of the creatures seen running around the city, at one time attacking it, are known as 'Heartless' and 'Nobodies'. These creatures supposedly created when a
heart is lost to darkness. They are controlled by The Organization and are considered just as dangerous as members themselves.

Keepin' this n' all new details in mind, be careful. We don't need any more casualties than we already have. New information involving anything you think could be important will always be accepted at any time. Exchanges in information are also negotiable.

Any further questions, comments, et cetera, et cetera I'll, eh, take 'em up the best I can.

Sincerely,

The Future Mayor of Paixao

... Whew, that was a long one!

My name is Mia Fey, and I'm posting to this message board because I've spoken to a fair few people lately, some new to Paixao and some who have been here for a while, who want to know what this place is and why we're here. My friend Diego--Godot, he calls himself, who already posted on his journal asking for those who have answers to speak, wants to investigate this city, and I intend to help him. Others I've talked to are doing or intend to do the same. Some of us are doing this to get back to our worlds, some of us simply want answers--personally, I'm interested in staying in Paixao, and it's alarmed me to discover that people sometimes randomly, or seemingly randomly, disappear. I want to know the laws of this world, how it works, and I'm sure many of you want to know the same thing.

It occurs to me that we might be of more help to one another if we know who to talk to and share our answers with. These journals might not be the best place for doing so, since anyone can read them, and from what I've observed from comments, the veterans of this city have hinted that not everyone in Paixao is entirely trustworthy. But is there a network that meets face to face on occasion to compare investigations? And if not, would anyone be interested in forming one? At the very least we may benefit from recording where people come from and when they arrive, and looking for patterns. There are hundreds of ways to go about investigating Paixao and, I'm sure, hundreds of answers to be found. It's my hope that we can find the answers we want a lot faster by helping one another.
 
 
So this is a space to talk to everyone here, right?
Is anyone out there from Germany or Amestris?
Does anybody have a tally going of how many worlds people have come in from?
Has anybody charted out whether some worlds are alike to others or share historical events?
Does this city have a library or university?
Is there a hall or records?
Where can I research the history of Pai Xao?
Is there anyone who knows anything about inter-world travel?
Is there any continuity between the worlds people are coming from and the gate they came through?
I would appreciate having any of these questions answered, thank you.
