Registration Office

Jul 16, 2020 4:22 pm
An attractive, smiling young woman with blonde hair and green eyes is behind the desk, busily chatting with a tattooed woman with unnaturally red hair.
Jul 16, 2020 9:57 pm
An African-American man, about 30 years old, with a neatly-trimmed mustache and beard enters the office, joining the tattooed woman and the Asian man therein.

"Big crowd for such a small place," he said to the three people in the front office. "Hi, my name is George, I guess. At least that's what's on my diver's license. I can't remember much else. Anyone else having that kind of problem?"
Jul 17, 2020 2:56 am
Strange. He's also not sure about himself?

"I-I uhmm. Michael Chang." He spoke, frowning at the idea that it was not only him who had some sort of amnesia.

I don't know if we can trust these people Mike.

"Also not sure who I am." He said as he fold his arms just to get some sense of security while they are caught in a strange situation.

George nods to Michael and then turns to the red haired woman with his brows raised.

I had a nametag in my clothes that reads Amy Macintosh, so I'll use that name until further notice.
I woke in a motel room not remembering anything. There is a story on my skin, but I haven't priced it all together yet.

Do any of you know what is going on?
Jul 17, 2020 12:19 pm
"No clue." He shrugs as he looks around the room and the other people in the room thinking that perhaps something would trigger a memory.

"Should we check out with the police or something? I'm not even sure where we are."
Jul 17, 2020 1:15 pm
I'm not even sure what country we are in. The police will just ask questions that we can't answer
She shutters as the thought of police involvement.
OOC:
Do you guys have an avatar for your character?
Jul 17, 2020 6:32 pm
OOC:
I have one for mine but it has a name attached so I didn't want to use it without approval from our GM.
George turns to the desk clerk and asks, "Can you tell us where we are? We all seem to be having memory problems."

"Certainly. You are at the Katahdin Valley Motel, in Sherman, Maine. That road out front is Main Street, and the nearby highway is I95."

OOC:
You can use your avatar, Aldrusian.

At least the clerk's cooperative.

"Alright I see your point. So the three of us lost our memories here, so the possible reason how we got in this situation might be here as well. Clerk's not affected by it so it must be something that the three of us had access to. But we can't remember anything, so this is probably something like a hypnosis." Mike runs his thoughts with the group.

"Hypnotism requires a stimulus, something, images. TV? Do we have that in our rooms?" He asks himself. Perhaps the way forward is if they backtrack and compare notes, he thought.
Jul 18, 2020 7:22 am
"Amy" asks the clerk. Can you check when we checked in? Who paid for the rooms and how?

To the others she says. It might give us some clue about how we got here.
Then she thinks of something and returns to the clerk. How long are the rooms paid for by the way? Until we know more this is the only place we have.
Jul 18, 2020 6:43 pm
"Oh, by the way, I noticed a Circle K next door. They don't serve hot food there do they? Is there anywhere nearby where we can get a meal?"
Jul 18, 2020 9:56 pm
"A very pleasant gentleman paid for each of your four rooms two days ago. He was dressed in black and wore dark sunglasses. He did not give his name but paid cash for your rooms. You're paid up for one week. Oh, he did leave this in the hotel safe for you." She goes beneath the desk for a moment and produces an envelope. "He said that there would be four of you." She looks quizzical for a moment, then shrugs and hands over the envelope.

"I think that they serve hot dogs and sausage biscuits, but that's all. Brenda's Restaurant is about a half-mile down Main Street."
Jul 19, 2020 4:36 am
George glances at the other two and reaches out for the envelope if neither of the others do. "We'll have to find our fourth. Do you have a room number for him or her? And down Main Street? Is that toward the freeway or away from it?" George doesn't even look at the envelope. Just puts it in a pocket.
Jul 19, 2020 5:59 am
Man in black? Definitely sketchy. Maybe we're kidnapped.

Mike steps away awaiting for the others to decide what they should check on next. He'd leave the asking to them.

OOC:
@Aldrusian, your avatar name is Nine Cato, but you call your self George. You do know you can change you avatar name in your character sheet, right
Hey there big guy! Let's see what in that envelope. I'm not having some man making decisions that affect me!! "Amy" is clearly angry, and it surprises her. Why did I just get so angry?
Jul 19, 2020 6:05 pm
"Towards the interstate," the clerk replies cheerily.
Jul 19, 2020 8:07 pm
OOC:
No. I didn't know that. There are two places where the name appears, on the character sheet and when first starting to build your character. I know that can't be changed because I tried it a few times. I'll see what I can do about the sheet itself then we'll see how it appears here.
OOC:
Ah, it worked.
Since the focus is now on the envelope George opens it with his finger and slides out the sheet of paper containing whatever message they're supposed to read. He glances at it quickly and hands it to Amy.

The letter is printed on a plain sheet of paper with no header.

Greetings,

I can only imagine what you must be feeling right now. Who am I, where am I, and why am I wherever here is? I am offering you some answers. Down Main Street, about two blocks past the interstate is a diner. Meet me there at 12 noon. Sit in a booth near the back of the restaurant and order some lunch. I'll meet you there to explain more.

"Good thing that's where we're planning to go once we find our fourth." George glances around the room to see if there's a clock on the wall.
Jul 20, 2020 1:39 am
OOC:
The time is 9:15 am.
Jul 20, 2020 1:58 am
"What does it say?" Mike did not come closer to check on what was written on the letter and just stood where he was.
Jul 20, 2020 3:10 am
"We're to meet our benefactor at the restaurant at noon." George then turns back to the young woman behind the counter. "Have you seen the last member of our group or would you not know them if they came in here? Did our benefactor reserve the rooms in our names or his own or none at all? I guess cash can speak volumes sometimes. We've got some time to round up the other party but it would help knowing who we should be looking for or at least a name in case we encounter someone."
Jul 20, 2020 6:47 am
Amy picks up the paper. Sorry about that, I don't know why I got so angry. I'm guessing that it pushed some of previous-me's buttons
She then reads it out loud

After waiting around for a few minutes George makes a suggestion. "We're not gonna get anything done standing around here. Let's take a casual walk down the road to the cafe and check out the area on the way. I'm up for a little exploration." He steps slowly to the door while watching to see if anyone else is following.

As you exit the office, a green Jeep pulls out of the parking lot, headed in the direction of the diner.

Yes, lets go to that diner and see what this is all about. Amy stops abrupt. George, how did you know what the letter would say? You did not read it. Are you clairvoyant?
Jul 29, 2020 1:05 am
OOC:
George skimmed over the note I think. He read the note when he opened the envelope.
"We've got time." Mike says as they exit the office.

"But I'd rather ride than walk." He points at the green jeep.
Jul 29, 2020 1:56 am
"Yeah, I scanned it quickly when I opened it. But, does any of us have a set of keys? I don't and I don't really wish to steal a car. It's less than a mile to the cafe and we've got plenty of time." George starts walking our the door and across the parking lot.

The group heads for the diner.
