[ akechi isn't particularly fond of reaching out to people in the hotel, but... he's realized it may actually be his best source of information, so he's biting the bullet and posting to the network. he Actually Tries to be polite about it all, so his message is chill. ]

Hello, all.

Since I've arrived here I've been exploring the place, but since it really is so huge... I was hoping I could gather some information from the rest of you.

I'd appreciate hearing about the various floors or rooms you've come across and what was in them. The strangest things you've seen, even.

There's only so much I can discover on my own, unfortunately, and I know that people have had... experiences, to say the least.

[ the fuck is the weave

still, akechi is intrigued. it's fascinating how many different forms of power there are in all these different worlds and universes... ]

Elemental magic, and some form of summoning magic, then.

[ he gets those!! ]

I'm familiar with similar things, although I wouldn't call it magic, and it doesn't have the same source.

[netherese]

[Why, he's so glad you asked—]

Very interesting. Similar concepts, then, but not considered magic. What does your world call it, if you don't mind my asking?

[laevateinns]

It's based more on cognition. The mind, and what it believes is capable.

The people who can use those elemental abilities can also summon things called Persona.

[ akechi also loves explaining things... friendship(?) ]

[netherese]

[It's possible... it's entirely possible.]

Summoning, I'm quite familiar with, though if these powers are based on one's cognition and the strength of someone's mind itself, I'm guessing you aren't calling these creatures from other planes of existence, at least not in the manner I might. I've heard of a similar power from another guest here, in fact— something called a Stand.

[laevateinns]

A stand?

I suspect it's not as simple as, say, a microphone stand.

[netherese]

Certainly not. Summoned creatures, not unlike the elementals or other planar beings I have seen called forth in my own world, but still decidedly unique. My experiences with them have been limited, but undeniably thrilling!
