Welcome to the CERES! You are now under arrest!
Did you think the glitches were over? Boy, were you wrong! Through the last remnants of the digital kerfluffle, the latest batch of recovered code has manifested in CERES' computer systems as the guilty parties. Yes, that's right, all incoming arrivals are now placed on the wanted list, accused of having committed the heinous crime of creating and releasing the gorg0n virus all over Cerealia. These vicious twelve have been working together all along and conspiring against CERES, and it's now up to everyone to figure out if the new arrivals are truly guilty or if they are as innocent and confused as they claim.
In the meantime, CERES has dispatched assassination droids to stop the accused and bring them to justice via disembowelment. So while CERES rushes to stop the droids from committing murder, characters are perfectly welcome to a.) soil themselves b.) fight off the droids c.) run while soiling themselves or d.) cry a lot. e.) ask for assistance!
"ASSASSINATION MODE: ONLINE
OBJECTIVE: ELIMINATE THE ACCUSED
TIMEFRAME: 24:00 HOURS
JUDICIAL UNIT-00345 DISPATCHED"

PHASE I [ 00 01 ]
It's a minute passed midnight, and the newest sets of recovered code are being spat out of ViViD and into Cerealia. Before the joyful reunions begin, an announcement starts blaring through everyone's computer screen, TV sets, devices, billboard screens, and so on. The image flashes with twelve names and twelve pictures along with a list of crimes each person has committed. They continue to flash again and again throughout the colony, alerting everyone of these heinous criminals. It's up to anyone if they want to engage them or stay far, far away from these perverts and miscreants.
As the arrivals begin to explore, they will see themselves plastered on just about every screen imaginable.
PHASE II [ 200 ]
It's still dark outside, hardly anyone out and about. It's the perfect time for an assassination attempt because that's when the information is received and processed by Cerealia's judicial system, but this isn't a job for any ordinary donut-eating cop. No, this is far greater than that. They bring out the big guns.
Twelve assassination droids, clad in armor and carrying katana, are immediately dispatched and sent to take out each of the accused at any cost. Characters are welcome to do any of the above choices while veterans to Cerealia can assist the arrivals, assist the droids, or just sit back and watch others suffer. It's completely up to you. They can also run into the droids on their search and try to interact with them.
PHASE III [ 700 ]
Your friendly CEO has finally gotten his ass out of bed, but by then, who knows how many people are left alive? After hearing of the kerfluffle, he decides to issue a cease and desist on the assassination droids, and instead, has his investigation units step in to confirm that the new arrivals are not guilty of any of the crimes and charges listed under their name. They will be pulled aside for painful, painful questioning before being released to explore as they wish.
To make up for all the damages and trauma incurred from the near-death attempts, Julius will also be giving the new arrivals a settlement of 20,000 credits each, so go out and party.
PHASE IV [ 1200 ]
By noon, the incident has been cleared up with little to no blood spilled (hopefully). New arrivals are welcome to explore and enjoy their new living arrangements or possibly lie in bed and just cry some more. Either way, welcome to the magic that is Cerealia. The CEO will announce that the last of the virus has been officially cleaned up and taken care of, and he'll be issuing a video with a public apology for all.
BONUS [ whyo'clock ]
Among the police droids dispatched, there will be a rehabilitative droid in a dinosaur suit, looking to cure the criminals of their improper behavior and their moral indiscretions through the power of LOVE and HUGS. It was developed after the researchers in CERES did extensive research on other worlds and found that this mystical creature was capable of creating worldwide joy and cheer. It will be chasing those who are on the Wanted List exclusively, but it will not stop at just them. Your character will be accosted and hugged whether they like it or not.

[ Someone's awfully mouthy for playing the defense, but it's not like Elliot's the unanimous mouthpiece for any mentions of exhibitionists prowling the streets (all lobsters in a 90-feet radius be forewarned).
Hell, with enough prerogative, he'd probably blab too. ... Well. There's a time and a place to contemplate his own hypocritical tendencies, but now's probably not the best occasion. ]
I did have money, just not — [ — cue Elliot dragging the card back and forth across the heel of his palm — ] — in this form. Seems convenient, I guess.
[ But accosted with one question that won't stop nicking away at his patience (or lack thereof), he glances up, eyes narrowing imperceptibly. ] You're familiar with credit cards, but you were on the list too, so — were you taken here as well?

[ Otherwise, they won't ever truly get passed it, and the topic has long since gotten kind of out-of-hand in this place. There has to be something better to discuss like surviving here or why they hell they're even here in the first place... Those are two things that haven't been addressed firmly enough, and Rin is not about to forget that this is a kidnapping situation regardless of how many credit cards and free apartments they throw his way.
It doesn't make him forget the fact that he's not home right now, and he's starting to worry he may never see it again. ]
-and of course, it's convenient. That's the whole point. No jingling pockets or carrying around a punch of bills.
[ Makes him wonder why his own home country hasn't exactly adopted it in full force, yet.
This guy's other question catches him a bit off-guard, and he shrugs after a moment, still not sure if there was much of a selection when it came to why they plucked him out of his world and brought him here. It seems more random than anything. ]
Yeah, I'm a recent arrival, too. Don't know what I did to deserve it, but I definitely had no choice in it. What about you?
