Greetings From Maka!

[The video switches on, and Maka comes into view, giving a friendly smile to the screen. She adjusts the camera a bit, as if trying to balance it, and then it grows steady again.]

That's better... Ah. Welcome to all the new people here in Death City! My name is Maka Albarn, and I'm a student and Meister here from Shibusen. I know this must be a

Miss Albarn, a question.

[fearless_tech]

Mm, of course. What is it?

Is there a running roster of all of the people who have come in because of BREW?

[fearless_tech]

Ah, yes, there is.

[cardfortress]

I would like to know which kind I classify as, if you please.

[fearless_tech]

[She wouldn't mind at all! Just one little problem...]

All right, that shouldn't be a problem. Would you mind turning on the video function, though, please? I can't see your soul unless I get a look at you.

[cardfortress]

Of course. But before I do so, could you tell me how secure is this filter? I have had terrible experiences in my world when showing my face to others, and as such, I am over zealous about my own security.

[tl;dr: paranoid Near is paranoid.]

[fearless_tech]

Oh. I...see. [Strange, but she can understand the paranoid feelings somewhat.]

Well, you don't have to worry. I assure you it's very safe.

[shalnark]

I have an idea of which one I'd be, but I'd like to make sure if you don't mind. I appreciate it!

[fearless_tech]

Sure! But could you turn on the video function, first? I need to be able to look at you.

[shalnark]

Like this?

[video; filtered to Shalnark]

[fearless_tech]

Exactly like that. Now, give me one moment to look...

[Gazes into his soooul...]

You're a Meister!

[ofnobility]

Oh, I remember you. It's nice to see you again.

[A pause.] Seeing souls?

[fearless_tech]

Ah, same to you! Did you find who you were looking for?

Mm, yes. Not many people can do it, but it's helpful in situations like these.

[ofnobility]

I did! Thanks for your help.

Huh. What do they look like?

video;

[fearless_tech]

You're welcome, though I didn't do much. I'm glad to hear you found them.

It's different from person to person. They tend to be small and round for the most part - they also have a specific color, too, depending on what the person is like.

[Have a smile, Pepper.]

Of course - it should only take a minute.

A Weapon is a person who can actually change their shape and transform into an actual weapon. The Meister is the person who wields the Weapon.

[She's giving Pepper a critical once-over, looking into her soul.]

It looks like you're a Weapon, speaking of.

[fearless_tech]

[Maka picks up on her look. She knows she can't make this more comfortable, really, but the least she can do is try, right?]

Mm, yeah. I know it's probably really weird and confusing right now, but once you figure out what your Weapon form is, it gets a little easier. [Encouraging smile.] After that, the next step would be to find a partner - a Meister. Shibusen holds a lot of classes for partnerships and whatnot.
