OOC: @Slenn Not a clue. Are air vents lined with a material with a high electrical resistivity?

"He's some nutcase that was hanging around here and then randomly decided to take the fighting out of the arena. The guards have been after him for weeks now. He's listed as 'Meta' on the scoreboard." James replied to Gwen.

"Is the way that you travelled here the same as whatever they used to reel the rest of us in, do you think?" He asked EMily. As the Blank Slate continued to parrot phrases from the conversation, he glanced at him in mild annoyance.

"What? Can't you string together a meaningful sentence?" He demanded.

OOC: @Random. Air vents are metal. You might have heard of what's called a Faraday Cage, which is essentially a conductive box made of metal. Conductors absorb electromagnetic radiation since the energy from that radiation is absorbed into the metal and creates an electric current. Hence why you should never make a phone call if the walls of your house have mostly metal inside. Only the information on the surface and outside of the conductor is what EMily can see.

<color=purple>"Huh.... that's a bizarre name. Not sure what to make of it really."

<color=blue>"Perhaps. For us a portal was created in our Mansion. Maybe instead, Lord Evilington knew for sure that we'd be drawn in."

The Blank Slate seemed confused, and tilted it's head.
|"?"|
It did nothing for a moment, and said, "What you say?" he says.

OoC: @Slen: Are you ignoring my character?

@Wacky. I unintentionally ignored it because I didn't see your text. Also I'm confused. What does this blank slate look like? Is it what I think it is? A blank slate from 2001 Space Odyssey?

I'm gonna say that Tophat's memory is pretty shit, so it will not remember people if not directly reminded of them. It will also have it's Chuck Norris clone body.

Tophat appeared in a dark room, and grunted slightly in annoyance as he stood up.
"So, any reason that I've been teleported to the middle of nowhere?"
"Hello, and welcome to the Evilington interdimensional arena. Please, enjoy your stay."
"Well that's just great. Why have I been brought here?"
"You were brought here because we think you will be a great addition to our roster. Please, follow the lighted path."
Tophat did just that.

OoC: @Gear: As always, your own choice.

@Gear: Up to you man.

Mia followed the lights on the floor until she found herself in the Lobby. She looked around the room and noticed EMily and gwen... She thought about going to talk to them but hesitated for about a minute, thinking back to their adventures, she realised that they were the only people she knew hear and were probably her best chance to know what was going on, even though she couldn't really care that much about it.

And no, it's not that. I never watched Space Odyssey.

OoC: I meant right now. Dan can't really communicate or fight that well, so... Maybe I should bring in Laguna or one of my fantasy OCs.

OOC: @Slenn Yeah, that falls pretty far outside my area of higher education.

"Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either. One way or another, the guy's several rounds short of a full mag. You'll probably know him if you see him, but just be careful. He's got a full face, pale gold reflective visor, and tends to make a lot of noise when he isn't hiding." James said to Gwen before turning back to EMily.

"I don't think this Lord Evilington guy is still in charge here. In fact, I thought I heard someone say that he was dead." When the Blank Slate spoke again he nodded slightly.

"So you aren't just a mimic. What the hell are you, for that matter?"

OOC: @Wacky. Alright then.
@Berk. The short version of that explanation is that conductors block EM waves.

She got a slight chill when she heard the Lord was dead.
<color=blue>"Dead? That just makes the situation even eerie and unsettling than before. And if he's dead, why, if anything, can't this place use the revival technology here to resurrect him? This seems suspicious."
EMily could see Mia in the distance. She hailed her from afar.
<color=blue>"Hello. You look lost. Can we help you?"

[Forgot to add this in] When Mia sulked over to EMily Gwen and James she remained silent, looking down towards the floor, her ears flat against her head and her tail dragging behind her

Blank Slate looked at James, and seemed lost.
|"Blank Slate."| He said.
He didn't seem phased by Mia.

@Kikre: Oh, do characters have memorys of people from before? or would they basicly be meeting them again for the first time.

James shrugged.
"I hadn't thought about it that much, to be honest. Maybe he died before they developed these tubes, and has been collecting worms for too long to bring him back. Or maybe he was of the same opinion as Gwen, that it wasn't right to be brought back like that." He said to EMily. Seeing her look at Mia he turned to the newcomer as well.

Oh, hey there. You alright?" He asked, noting the dejected body language.

Tophat entered the lounge, and looked over the gathered crowd.
"Quite a few around here, it seems."
OoC: @Slenn: I'd like to point out that Evilington lived during the early 21st century. He died hundreds of years before the arena was built.
@Silver: That's up for you to decide. Tophat doesn't remember, but only because he actually has pretty bad memory. If reminded, he'll remember it.

Carmen took a small sip as she looked over toward the dejected Mia slumping in. [color=bb0066] "Hmm... What's with her?" [/color] She mused out loud.

As she waited for Mia to elicit a response, she tilted her head upwards.
<color=blue>"I don't suppose the intercom voice could answer that question." EMily said. She cleared her throat. <color=blue>"Excuse me, intercom? I was wondering when did Lord Evilington live? And when is this place with respect to the time of Lord Evilington's death?"
