[ MINGLING POST: TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES ]
Your cell phone has a pre-recorded message, a voicemail that appears the moment you turn it on for the first time. The voice is a man's. He sounds exhausted, almost monotone.
I'm sorry. If you are listening to this, you're starting on the first day of what may be an increasingly uphill climb. You are in an alternate dimension. No, you cannot go home. Yes, I am sorry. I have been trying for years now, but this point is in flux and none of the conventional methods of dimensional reconstruction have worked. I've tried them. I've tried even some of the more unconventional methods, and---[ he sighs audibly ]---for now, all I can give you is my understanding, my sympathy, and a nudge in the right direction. Trust people. Work together. Even if you do not want to trust any of the people here, ingroup favoritism is against you.
They don't like us. And, frankly, I don't blame them. This is...partially...[ the line goes dead for a few seconds; there is a high note of an alarm in the background]---dammit. I---I haven't got much time to wrap this up. Take the stipend they give you. You'll need it. There are motel rooms, good people here who understand that it isn't your fault---use the resources that you're given and get on your feet as best you can.
My name is Banner. If you need help, truly need help, contact me. I'll do what I can.
Remember, housing post is here and supplemental information on your new city is here.
Welcome to Truth or Consequences! You've rolled in with whatever you had on you, and the room is empty. At least you got that pep talk from Dr. Banner and a cell phone, right? This is an OOC post for you to gather CR with anyone else in ToC. This is a PERMANENT post, so check back frequently to see who is new in town.
