#SETTING

Welcome to Shibuya, Players! (Or at least what seems like a suspiciously similar approximation of it.) A neighborhood special ward located in the western portion of Tokyo, Japan, everything that surrounds your view is buildings climbing up to the skyline and busy streets. There's a definitive tinge of smog to the air, but the sky is clear day and night. The hustle and bustle of the city is only slightly overshadowed by the faint sound of music playing in the background, like the sound of speakers in a grocery store echoing everywhere. The playlist might change, yet the music never stops. There's no need to get overwhelmed by it all, though. Because they're in a plane of existence known as the UG, Players have limited access to buildings, only being able to enter those with a specific decal on them. Anything else is unavailable. Paths to other areas are also LOCKED by what seems to be invisible walls. Perhaps they can be unlocked later...? Overall, there's definitely the feeling of something odd in this city, but it might just be because you're a dead soul walking these streets. Speaking of, let's look at them more closely, shall we?

CAT STREET

[reapertoire]

A street lined with cafés, imported furniture stores, and other classy establishments. Neighboring Harajuku Station might get you there quicker. A breath of fresh air after exploring the slummier side of Miyashita, Cat Street is lacking in graffiti, trash, and, unfortunately, cats. What it does have is a relatively small and modern McDonald's right near the start of the street. It sells a full fast food menu, including, for some reason, lobster items? Unfortunately, the McFlurry machine appears to be broken. Walking further into the street, you'll come across a small gun shop by the name of Bullets, Bullets and More Bullets. It does have a wide variety of bullets, just as advertised! Unfortunately, only one kind of gun is available for purchase. The shopkeeper will advise you to come back next week for more guns. The vending machines around here sell snacks and beverages... Though most seem unappealing, containing items like "haggis and black chips", "garlic chocolate", "dried fish", "clam juice" and "spicy avocado cola". A little past both the odd vending machines and the useless gun store, one can find a Sheep Heavenly brand clothing store. The look here is cute, colorful, and maybe just a bit 80's inspired. The galaxy themed thigh-high are this Sheep's current best seller. Straight across from this is a moderately-sized IKEA. Or it certainly looks moderately-sized until you step inside, as an eternity of furniture displays and a labyrinth of home accessories stretches before you. The intercom overhead calling from time to time is your only proof that there are employees around. The feeling of being lost and alone doesn't leave until you do, at which point hours have passed you by... The deeper you go, the worst the feeling gets. Luckily, the restaurant is right next to the entrance! You can enjoy some signature IKEA meatballs while you try to decide how likely it is you'll be able to build that bed you can't afford out in the park. Finally, in the far end of the street, tucked away in a corner, a café by the name of WildKat also bears the insignia. The inside is bright and clean, surprisingly so for a shop with no owner. A cozy looking place with very few tables and one booth, there's lots of fresh food available here at all times: donuts, muffins, soups, sandwiches, as well as tons of coffee beans and machines of all kinds! There's a fresh pot waiting for you right now. Everything is free when there's no owner. The employee only door has been opened. Inside is an absurd amount of dog toys. Weird...
