Text Survey for the People of Route

This is a survey meant to gather data on who comes to this place, where they come from, and under what circumstances do they come and go. Due to the fact that the answers to these questions could stray into personal territory, the code for a private filter has been provided for you to use at your discretion.

[There is the promised code typed here, good for a relatively complex filter. Reid learned this particular code from staring over Garcia's shoulder enough times.]

Any public presentation of this data will not include names--individual people and their worlds will be assigned numbers instead, even in my notes. But to keep track of who belongs to what world, please include names on this for my benefit.

Name:

Sex:

Gender:

Age:

How long you've been here:

Brief description of your world:
Since this world is our common denominator, please list major differences your world has to this one (except the absence of Pokemon). Does it have things like spirits, ghosts, witches, etc.? Are there creatures like unicorns, dragons, sprites, elves, etc.? Are you even from planet Earth? What is the most advanced form of technology that you are familiar with in your world? Go into as much detail as you like. If possible, please include the year you are from and any other differences between your world and most others that you can think of.

Brief description of your life: What socioeconomic class are you, do you live with your family, what climate is the place you live, would you describe your life as happy or sad, etc. (Note: details aren't required if you say you didn't like your life from before, but just saying whether you did or not could really be helpful.)

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Did anything significant happen to you within a week of coming here? Did you notice anything strange about the people or world around you?

Your history here: Have you ever been here and gone back home before, and then if so, do you remember your time here and did you notice anything strange leading up to your arrival home?

Others from your world: Have you met anyone else from your world? If so, how many, what are their names, and if possible, provide a brief description of their personality and history.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: If you answered yes to the previous question, when did they arrive in relation to you? What is your relationship to them? Are they still here?

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: If you knew someone from your world but they went away, can you think of anything strange leading up to it? Odd behavior, significant happenings, frequent accidents, anything like that.

Frequency of 'replacements': If you know someone from your world who has disappeared and then reappeared, how often has this happened? Do they remember this world or forget? Are they from different times, and if so, where is it in relation to you?

Any data is appreciated.

Recently edited to provide more accessible questions under 'world description'.




OOC: I'm going to tag this slowly since this is a long-term post, but I'll tag, don't worry.

Don't those mean the same thing?

Age: 10

How long you've been here: A year, but I went home for six months!

Brief description of your world: I'm from 1970, and I live in Japan! Well, I have a bunch of stuff that I guess most people don't have, but that's because of Doraemon who time traveled from the future to bring it to me so that I wouldn't end up having a terrible future! And oh, there are aliens, but I haven't seen them that often. And I've met God before! And fought demons! But I'm not sure all of them actually were demons because Doraemon said one of them was just from another dimension. And another was just an alien. But I can tell you all about those adventures if you want! They were really really cool.

Brief description of your life: Of course I live with my family! I have my mom and my dad and Doraemon. The weather's really nice most of the time, but it hardly ever snows.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Well...some of the people were just standing in the same place most of the time! And they're still standing there! I checked! And they're still wearing the same clothes! [Hypocrite...]

Your history here: Of course I remember! But I don't know anything strange. I just fell asleep and woke up back home!

Others from your world: No...

How long you've been here: As long as you have.

Brief description of your world: I guess it's normal, though I don't have any other worlds to compare it to except this one. I lived in Northeastern Japan; first in a village in the Aomori prefecture and then a few different places. There are ghosts though; a lot of them. Some are harmless. Some are really not. When I left it was 1988.

Brief description of your life: It was alright. I lived with my mom and sister, but now I live with my uncle. He's a journalist and a folklorist and he lives in a bigger city then I'm used to. He has friends in Osaka, so I suppose I'm excepted to go with him. I'm not sure about money, but he's supposedly successful at his writing and things.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction:
[This spot is left blank. There were no attempts to even begin writing a response]

Your history here: This is my first time here, as far as I know.

Others from your world: No. I'm thankful for that.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: N/a

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: N/A

Frequency of 'replacements': I don't think anyone from my world has come here, before me anyway.

[ Here's a young kid, hair tucked up in a cap, who gives herself away as a girl when she opens her mouth. ]

I know you probably wanted this, like, filled out on the 'Gear in text or whatever, but I can't spell, dude. And this is, like... important stuff, so I figured I'd just do this and you can record it or whatever, instead.

[ She focuses on the 'Gear to read the questions. ]

Okay, so... my name's Miyuki Chitose, and I'm a girl, duh. I turned eleven a couple weeks ago. [ She pauses. ] Well, a couple weeks ago here. I'm probably, like... almost twelve by now, because it was almost my birthday when I left home, right? I don't know how to figure that out, but I'm probably twelve. I've been here a year aaaand... [ She checks something on the 'Gear. ] ... Fifteen days. I got here on September 11th last year.

My world was pretty boring, actually. No dragons or magic or demons or any cool stuff like that. At least, I never saw any. I'm from Earth, and it was 2008 when I left. August, like a couple days before my birthday, so maybe the 20th or something?

I met other people who were from Earth, too, and even kind of the same year, but a lot of them had magic and cool stuff. Ghosts or whatever. [ She juts her lips out in a brief pout, then refocuses on the survey questions. ]

... I don't know what... so... see-oh... ecawhatever is, dude. Got a smaller word for it? —Anyway, I'm just a kid, so I live with my mom and dad. I have a brother, too, but he goes to school in Osaka. Me and my mom and dad live in Kumamoto, Kyuushuu. [ Almost as an afterthought: ] That's in Japan.

I play tennis, so that was, like, a big thing in my life. I'm gonna go to Nationals in middle school, for sure. My brother plays, too, and he went to Nationals every year in middle school. I guess I was pretty happy.

[ She's quiet for a moment, examining the next question. ] I don't think anything weird happened before I left. I was watching the middle school national tourney, so I was in Tokyo. It was pretty much totally awesome, except my brother's team lost in the semifinals.

I've never been back home since I came here, but I did glitch out for, like, five weeks. I was in Vermilion, and, like, I just... blinked, and it was five weeks later? I dunno, dude. But I didn't go back home, and I didn't have any new memories or whatever. Super weird.

There've been a ton of people from my world here, though. Let me see... my brother, Poison-bro— [ She stops short. On second thought, maybe she should give him actual names? This is an official survey, after all. ] Uh, my brother, Senri... Shitenhouji's Shiraishi, Tooyama, Oshitari, Zaizen.... Rikkaidai's whole team, like, came and went, which is eight people.... Seigaku's Tezuka, Fuji, Kikumaru... that other Fuji from, like... St. Rudolph, I think..... Hyoutei's Atobe, Oshitari... Shishido.... ?

I dunno, dude, there've been, like, a ton. All of 'em are on the middle school tennis circuit, and I'm pretty sure all their teams went to nationals. Semifinals, even, except Hyoutei lost in the quarterfinals and I don't know when St. Rudolph got knocked out.

Some of them showed up before me and some after; some came and went while I was here.... If you really want, I can try to count everyone and figure it all out — there's still, like... two dudes from my world here who can help me.

[ Her voice goes gradually flat over the next few sentences, and she starts to look a little sullen. ]

Nothing weird happens when people disappear, though. It just happens. They're here one day, and then they're not, and you wind up with some of their Pokémon sometimes, or sometimes you don't. There's no warning or anything. They're just gone.

[ She looks away, off to one side of the 'Gear. ] Only one dude left and came back, and when he came back, he didn't remember me anymore. Like, not even from our own world. He probably came here from sometime before I ever met him, because he didn't even know my brother was on his tennis team. He sure didn't remember anything about this place.

I guess that's it, then. Hope this stuff helps or whatever. If you need anything else, hit my 'Gear, Mister.

Name: Shiraishi Kuranosuke

Sex: Male

Gender: Male

Age: 14

How long you've been here: A little over four months

Brief description of your world: Normal world. I live on Earth, in the year 2007. More specifically in Osaka, Japan. There's nothing supernatural in our world, at least so that I know of.

Brief description of your life: I'm a second year in middle school and the captain of my tennis team. I live with my parents and two sisters and I'd say my life is generally happy and quite normal.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: I was just going to tennis practice when I woke up here. Nothing weird happened before it.

Your history here: I went home for a week, but I was in coma in this world during the whole time. I have heard that I've been here before though, but I was older then, so I have no memories of being here before.

Others from your world: There are two others from my world. Yagyuu is from a rival team of ours and Miyuki is a sister of a rival I played against recently before coming here. I don't know very much about them as I haven't really met either one before in my world. They've been here longer than me.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: There was a time when I got a Pokémon from someone from our world, but I never met them here so I can't say much about that.

Frequency of 'replacements': As I said earlier, I'm sort of a replacement for an older me. Apparently I was here for some time before and made friends who some still remember me, but I didn't know any of them. Which is pretty sad. I don't remember someone from my world, even if the older version of me did.


I hope this helps at least a little.

Name: Rose Lalonde

Sex: Female

Gender: Female

Age: 14, but soon to be 15 in December if age accuracy is important.

How long you've been here: Almost two years.

Brief description of your world: It used to be earth, however at thirteen my friends and I took part in a game that destroyed it with meteors and transported us to the world of the game. The game is used to prolong the existence of reality, with the goal being to create a new universe. Alchemy, magic, invincible enemies, giant green suns, grey skinned humanoids called trolls, meteors that can sustain life, and many other things are possible here. The universe is a frog. That's about as brief as I can make this.

Brief description of your life: I lived with my mother in a forest in New York where it almost always rained. My life was nothing to complain about until the game happened and suddenly we were doomed to die, my mother was killed, my best friend was stabbed, my brother and I were sent on a suicide mission, I was gripped by the eldritch powers of horrible gods, we created an impossible to defeat enemy and were currently on a rock flying through space for three years in which I wouldn't see two of my best friends until the end of the journey. And we still don't know if we will win or not.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: I had just gotten my friend into the game and was about to enter myself when I first arrived here.

Your history here: Yes, once. I hadn't remembered a thing back home, and hadn't noticed anything strange leading up to it. Supposedly I merely passed out and was out for a week, in which I spent a large amount of time at home, and then "returned" here and woke up. Once I did, all my memories of Johto returned.

Others from your world: Histories will be very difficult, but all humans mentioned have endured similar issues that I have, and all trolls similar issues with each other. Carapaces, Scratch and Bec...I have no idea where to begin with them. Personalities can be generally classified as pleasant, though Eridan can fuck right off for all I care, Gamzee can be considered 'conditionally psychotic' and all Striders are insufferable pricks.
Humans: John Egbert, Dave Strider, Bro Strider, Jade Harley
Trolls: Karkat Vantas, Sollux Captor, Feferi Peixes, Terezi Pyrope, Nepeta Leijon, Eridan Ampora, Gamzee Makara, Kanaya Maryam, Aradia Megido, Equius Zahhak, Vriska Serket, Tavros Nitram
Carapaces: Diamonds Droog, Clubs Deuce, Spades Slick
Doc Scratch and Becquerel

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: I don't remember times for a lot of these because of how infrequent they've been here, so I'm afraid I will leave this out for a lot of them.
John Egbert: Best friend/Fiance; Still here; Has been here the entire time I have.
Dave Strider: Best friend/Brother; Still here; This is his fifth time.
Jade Harley: Best friend; Still here; Has been here the entire time I have.
Bro Strider: Father; Not here; Only been here once.
Karkat Vantas: Best friend; Still here; This is his third time.
Sollux Captor: He is a best friend of mine but it's kind of complicated right now; Still here; This is his second time.
Nepeta Leijon: Friend; Still here; This is her third time.
Eridan Ampora: Fuck him; Still here; This is his third time and I wish he would go home.
Gamzee Makara: Uh; Still here; This is his third time.
Vriska Serket: Close friend; Still here; This is her third time.
Tavros Nitram: Friend; Still here; This is...his second time I believe.
Equius Zahhak: Acquaintance; Still here; This is his second time.
Feferi Peixes: Friend; Not here; Was here...twice?
Aradia Megido: Friend; Not here; Was only here once I believe.
Terezi Pyrope: Acquaintance; Not here; I have no fucking idea we never talked.
Kanaya Maryam: Good fiend; Not here; Was here twice.
Diamonds Droog: Fashionable Acquaintance; Not here; Was here once.
Spades Slick: Acquaintance; Not here; Was here once.
Clubs Deuce: Close friend; Not here; Was here once.
Doc Scratch: I have no clue; Not here; Was here once.
Becquerel: Friend? Jade's dog; Not here; Was here once.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: A few of them became quiet and generally unresponsive to anyone, but that's all I can think of.

Frequency of 'replacements': See above list for frequency. Gamzee is the only one to remember and he's only done so once.

Name: john egbert

Sex: male

Gender: i think you asked the same question twice. so still male.

Age: 14

How long you've been here: two years in january

Brief description of your world: earth, year 2009. our version of earth went through apocalypse by meteor though. i have spoken to some other people here where that didn't happen so make of that what you will. this might make me sound crazy, but my three best friends and i survived by playing a game called sburb. yes, a video game. it transported us to a place called the medium, where it was basically kind of like being in an action rpg. you fought monsters, went on quests, all that fun stuff. only it was all real. i could go into more detail if you're really curious but we will probably be here for a while.

Brief description of your life: i lived in washington with my dad (adoptive, technically he's my half brother) up until my thirteenth birthday when the meteors hit. washington the state, that is, not d.c. assuming you're from earth as well. if you're not then just ignore that. overall, i would say it was pretty good.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: the only strange thing was sburb. right before coming here i was about to bring my sister into the game.

Your history here: supposedly i was here for a very brief period once before. i don't remember it and i think at this point my sister is the only one who would even remember the first me.

Others from your world: yes, quite a few actually. my three best friends are all here, their names are rose lalonde, dave strider, and jade harley. dave's older brother (technically his dad) whose name i don't actually know was here for a while as well. jade's dog, becquerel also came here once, though he was turned into a human just like any and all aliens that come here. then there are the twelve trolls, who are aliens from a planet called alternia. they also played sburb, though a different session than ours. their names are vriska serket, karkat vantas, aradia megido, feferi peixes, nepeta leijon, equius zahhakm tavros nitram, sollux captor, gamzee makara, terezi pyrope, kanaya maryam, and eridan ampora. at one point there were a couple of carapace here, which are these chess-piece looking guys from the medium. i know that spades slick and clubs deuce were here but supposedly diamonds droog was as well. there was also this kind of creepy guy named doc scratch. no idea who he is exactly or where he comes from, but supposedly he was from our world.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world:
rose lalonde is my fiancee and best friend. she is still here and arrived a week or so after i did.
dave strider is my best friend and he's been here five times now. the first time he was here before i was, then he disappeared and came back barely a week later, stayed for a few months, and then did a disappear-reappear-rebound again. after he disappeared that time it was a while before he showed up for the fourth time. he wasn't around long before he disappeared AGAIN and he just showed up a week or so ago for the fifth time.
jade harley is my best friend and my twin sister, though technically her birthday is four months before mine. she's been here a few weeks longer than i have, iirc.
"bro" strider was here for a couple of months about a year ago. he has yet to return.
becquerel is jade's dog and he was here...last summer i think it was. disappeared after a few months and has not returned.
vriska serket is my best friend and moirail. she has been here three times. the first time she was here before me and the second time she wasn't here for very long but reappeared very quickly. she's still here.
karkat vantas is a close friend and he has also been here three times. the first was before me. his pattern is more-or-less the same as vriska's, though during different months. he's still here.
aradia megido is a good friend. she and i arrived on the same day. she disappeared though, and came back after a few months, only to disappear a second time. she hasn't come back again.
feferi peixes is a friend and she's been here...twice i think? i'm not exactly sure, it could be more than that. she's not here right now though.
nepeta leijon is a good friend and she's been here three times that i know of. all three of which was after me. she's still here.
equius zahhak is an acquaintence. if he was here before this thime, i never got the chance to talk to him.
tavros nitram is a friend and he's been here three times that i know of. pattern is once again similar to vriska's.
sollux captor is...a friendly aquaintence? idk. he's been here twice though. up until his disappearance i few months ago i think he had been here the longest out of anybody from our universe. he returned somewhat quickly and is still here.
gamzee makara was a good friend but i don't think that's true anymore. he's been here three times. he was here before me, then left, then came back after a few months, then disappeared, then just came back again a few weeks ago. interestingly, the second time he arrived here, he remembered the everything from the first time he was here.
terezi pyrope once tried to kill me so i guess we're acquaintences. she's been here...two or three times i think? i really don't know since she never traveled with us or anything. i know that the first time she was here it was before me. she's not here now though, and hasn't been for a while.
kanaya maryam is barely even an acquaintence. we've spoken a grand total of three times and i have no idea if she's been here more than once. she's not here now though, and hasn't been for a while.
eridan ampora is a douchebag. he's been here three times and is (regrettably) still here. he was here before me the first time.
of the carapace, the only one i actually spoke to was clubs. they aren't here anymore and haven't been for a while.
doc scratch is a creep and arrived after i did. thank god he hasn't come back.

If you answered yes to the previous question, when did they arrive in relation to you? What is your relationship to them? Are they still here?

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: not really? the first time dave disappeared he got kind of spacey and quiet in the weeks leading up to it but that's about it.

Frequency of 'replacements': oh shit i already answered this didn't i? sorry for putting it in the wrong place. but as a note, gamzee is the only one who remembered being here and it was just that one time. when i came back this most recent time, he didn't remember anything.

Name: Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III.

Sex: Male.

Gender: Male.

Age: 16 I think here. Or 4, if you want to be technical. I was born February 29th.

How long you've been here: Almost 10 months.

Brief description of your world: The Isle of Berk is pretty much a cold and miserable place with a bunch of giant, angry, smelly, loud people making a living. (There are a few exceptions to that description, of which I am one. For many reasons.) As I mentioned before, there are dragons, and my mentor Gobber is pretty convinced that there are trolls, too, so I wouldn't be surprised. Before dragons, we mainly got around by ship, and those tend to crash a lot more.

Brief description of your life: I covered a good bit of this by describing Berk, since the people are a lot like the land they live on. I live with my dad, the chief of our tribe, the Hairy Hooligans, and my dragon, Toothless. All fifteen of my years there I was mastering the art of disappointing others and causing accidental destruction. Oddly enough, sticking me in the workshop at the age of two (not the 'literal' two based on my birthday--the actual two of having spent two years living) was the best way to keep mishaps at a minimum, even if it gave me access to materials to work with and put me near sharp objects, burning coals, and an increasingly eccentric man. The people of Berk had been at war with dragons for seven generations until some dashing viking teen had the idea to get to know them instead of slay them. Friendships were made, a dragon bigger than a mountain was fought, and peace was had. In case you were wondering, said charmer that brought such victory and peace was me.
Recently, though, the dragons have left, turning our usual merry holiday of Snoggletog (the equivalent of Christmas as far as I can tell, if you're more familiar with that name) into something considerably less so. (If you talk to a girl named Astrid about Berk's dragons, please don't tell her that part.)

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Astrid had just met my dragon Toothless, and we had just discovered the dragon nest. The next day was supposed to be my final exam, where I would have needed to slay a dragon in front of the tribe's Elder if I didn't come up with another of my brilliant plans. Oh, and I got my first kiss.
It was actually a pretty exciting day, now that I think about it.

Your history here: I'm pretty sure this is my first time here, since no one's told me otherwise and I don't have any memory of being here before. After my first week, I was mysteriously transported to a different city during a span of three missing days. I once also spent one full week asleep while my brain was back on Berk and when I woke up, I had new memories from home. More recently, I disappeared for a little over three weeks and woke up without realizing any time had passed.

Others from your world: I've seen two people from home, here. One was my best friend Toothless (and yes, he's the dragon). He was in Johto before me, and left about three months after I came here. While he was here, he was transformed into a human, but he still had sharper teeth and had a hard time talking. Normally he's the fastest kind of dragon known to vikings, a Night Fury, only some idiot kid knocked him down with a bola sling and he wound up minus one tailfin. Because of this, he couldn't fly on his own until recently. Toothless can be kind of goofy and a trouble-maker, but he's reliable and the greatest friend I could ask for. When he isn't stomping around being jealous or flying off with a prosthetic fin, that is.
The other one is Astrid Hofferson, a girl from my tribe. She was pretty much the greatest hope for a warrior, out of us Hairy Hooligan teens, and now that our focus has shifted away from fighting a bit, she's turning out to be a splendid rider as well. She's smart, stubborn, and packs quite the punch, but I know I couldn't have accomplished anything without her support. She just arrived this July. I think she's from what would be considered my past.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Whoops, guess I answered this one.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: Toothless had been the same as always. He just wasn't there when I woke up, one day.

I hope you won't take it personally when I say I'd rather not let you assemble a dossier on me, Dr. Reid. But in the interest of science, I'll answer the pertinent ones.


Name: Carmen Isabella Sandiego

Sex: Female

Gender: Female

Age: 28 years.

How long you've been here: As of this writing, six months and twenty-two days.

Brief description of your world: Earth. The same one you're familiar with, I expect. And the year is 1997.

Brief description of your life: That, Dr. Reid, is one mystery I'm afraid you'll have to deduce on your own.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: I was in the middle of something important. Quite literally, actually — one moment I was in midair, and the next I was here.

Your history here: No, I've never left.

Others from your world: No. Never in person.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: I've been told that every six months or so, the people here experience a sort of...mass hypnosis, lucid dreaming state that renders them unconscious for a period of three days. Some people can recount as many as four of these events; I can personally only remember one. I did see someone I know in one of those periods, once, and I can say for certain that I'm not the only one who did. But this world seems to have taken Puck's words to heart — this weak and idle theme proved no more yielding but a dream.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: It's hard to lose something you never had in the first place, isn't it?

Frequency of 'replacements': He wasn't from my world, but I know someone who left and came back, and he never seemed to notice he'd been gone in the first place. He was missing three weeks, but in his perception, his time away was almost nonexistent.

Sex: Male
Gender: Isn't that the same question?
Age: around 22-ish I guess? Not really sure how to count it.
How long you've been here: It'll be two years in November.

Brief description of your world: I can't really tell you about how it compares to most worlds, but I can compare it to this one anyway. Menoris has magic, while this one doesn't. This one has a lot of things that I would never have seen back in Menoris, though. Especially computers.

Brief description of your life: Can't say there's all that much worth mentioning about it.

Circumstances surrounding your abuduction: The first time I found myself here, I'd just gotten back to Roland from a long trip. The second, I'd spent the week setting up fireworks for Sion's birthday. That whole thing is complicated, though.

Your history here: If you're asking about those week-long coma things that happen, I've had one. Last July. It's complicated because I know I went home for a while and can prove it, but apparently I was also asleep here?

Others from your world: Two have shown up, that I know of. Ferris Eris, dango-loving swordswoman and my partner back home, and Sion Astal, blackmailing demon of a work-a-holic king. If anyone else did, it was before I got here.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Ferris arrived last September, and disappeared in April. Sion got here in February and is still around.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: Nothing odd was going on with Ferris at all. One day she was there and everything was normal, the next she'd just vanished.

Frequency of 'replacements': Never happened to anyone from back home, that I know of.

Name: Ondorus

Sex: Male

Gender: Male

Age: 527 (in the years of my world, which are 120 days long)

How long you've been here: Twenty-seven days

Brief description of your world: I live in the kingdom of Norad, on the continent of Adonea. Our years are 120 days long, divided into four seasons of an even 30 days each. A fundamental difference between Johto and my world is the absence of rune, the energy of life and the earth which gives power to all things. Rune energy can be used in large quantities to cast spells, and in smaller amounts gives living beings the essential energy they need to live. When imbalances of it occur in the environment, gates to another world appear, and the inhabitants of that world - "monsters" from the "Forest of Beginnings" - can come through those gates. Many monsters now inhabit the world, along with the peoples that were originally here (humans, dwarves, elves, mermaids, and many other intelligent species). This state of affairs is what most consider normal. Exceptional occurrences are those that stretch the limits of possibility, as I would expect in any world. For instance, a favorite story in Norad is of ancient heroes called Earthmates, who were able to call monsters from the Forest to their aid and had incredible powers gifted them by the very earth. The feats they could perform were certainly out of the range of normalcy.

Brief description of your life: I am a kind of monster known as univir, who have lived in societies very similar to those of humans. We are very long-lived, and I am still rather young for my kind. Unfortunately, we are a people in decline, and the last of us live in a settlement in the Sol Terrano desert, with other monsters and non-human peoples. I am very close to the elder of the settlement, so it could be said that my status in the settlement is second highest. My parents passed on over three centuries ago. My peers do not remain constant, as they move on from the settlement, or they simply live out their lives and I survive them past their old age. My experiences are rather narrow, as I have lived in the settlement all my life, but the products of places outside the desert come to us through trade. Books, as well, and I have learned very much about my world through them during my life.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Within a year before my appearance in Johto, the settlement was attacked by an unusually vicious monster. It was repelled by a traveler who had recently come to the settlement for the first time. Such attacks are rare, and this one was the most serious that had ever occurred.

Your history here: If this is not my first time in Johto, neither I nor anyone I have met are aware of it.

Others from your world: I am unaware of any other arrivals from my world. Upon arriving, I named several notable places from my world, and received no indication of recognition.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: None experienced.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: None experienced.

Frequency of 'replacements': If you know someone from your world who has disappeared and then reappeared, how often has this happened? Do they remember this world or forget? Are they from different times, and if so, where is it in relation to you?

[Get ready to have your brain asplode, Reid.]

Name: Hope Estheim
Sex: 27
Gender: M
Age: M

How long you've been here: Collectively, almost two years. This is my third visit, and I arrived about two months ago, in July.

Brief description of your world:
I'm unfamiliar with your definition of standard, but what's standard for my world, Gran Pulse, is some of the things you have described. There are dragon-like monsters if you know where to look, and some humans are capable of magic, though those reports have been far and wide. Other non-human creatures include chocobos which are large flightless birds that can be used as either work animals or kept as pets, flan types, behemoths and bombs, the last three of which are some of the dangerous ones.

The capital city is called Academia and was built by the Academy, which used to be an expedition team before moving onto other scientific pursuits.
[And becoming the new "government" with Hope as its supreme leader but he's not about to reveal that to anyone unless he trusts them.] Gran Pulse is a dangerous wilderness most of the time due to the monsters and density of flora, but Academia and the surrounding lands tend to be free of them.

The main modes of transportation are vehicles, though some prefer chocobos for off-road travel, as they'd been used for hundreds of years for that very purpose.

Brief description of your life:
I work as an engineer, researcher and scientist for the Academy, and am based in Academia. I have been with them since graduation.
[Straight and to the point, because he doesn't want to reveal too much.]

Circumstances surrounding your abduction/Your history here:
As I said above, I have been sent back and forth between my world and this a few times. The first time was when I was 14 years old and traveling through the city while dodging monster attacks, as there had been a large outbreak of them. I stayed for almost 7 months.

The second time had been shortly after the first, no more than two or three days in my world, and the attacks had stopped. However, by this world's calendar, it had been a month at least. That time, I stayed for 6 months.

As you can tell, it has been over 10 years for me since my last visit, but for my friends here in Johto, that time was just a year and a few months. Before I left my world, I'd been waiting for friends to arrive at the unveiling of a new technology by the Academy.

I don't remember every detail, but that's mostly due to being away for so long, and having so missed so many changes in Johto. For example, there had been no news of Kanto back then, and fewer known species of Pokémon.

However, depending on who you ask, I had been here once between the second and third times, still as a teenager. However, I remembered nothing of my past here, and I certainly don't remember visiting that time.

Others from your world: Have you met anyone else from your world?
Lightning. Female, early 20's, about 5'7" in height, military background. I would add more, though I'm sure she wouldn't be pleased should I talk far too much about her without consulting her first.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world:
She arrived a few months after my first.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world:
A man named Snow had been here before me, though he'd disappeared. Others came after Lightning, but they are obviously all gone now. What is similar with their disappearances is this: It had been radio silence on their end for months until their IDs completely disappeared off the network. Serah had been around though, and we were traveling together until her disappearance, making her the exception.

Frequency of 'replacements':
Snow came back once but remembered. I'd heard that Fang came back during the year and a half that I was away, though I don't know any more details than that. Again, she'd been silent until a month ago, when her number disappeared. I don't have enough information on this though, but arrivals from my world are rare.

Name: Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi

Sex: Male

Gender: Male

Age: 34

How long you've been here: I will have been here six months on October 11th.

Brief description of your world: I am from a version of Earth that would probably be quite similar to the one you're familiar with, if my assumption that you're from that particular planet is correct. The year is
[SOME YEAR DURING PRESIDENT CLINTON'S TERM because god knows nobody ever gave us exact years for this show]. The supernatural does exist in my world, though it's a carefully guarded secret-in fact, we may even be from the same world without you knowing it.

Anyway, it is for this reason that I feel that I must state that I may leave things out of this explanation by accident. I am not accustomed to speaking about magecraft and the like to people who don't already have a basic grasp of the concept, so if there is anything you are not completely clear on, don't hesitate to ask.

In any case, things like zombies and vampires exist under the proper classification of "Dead Apostles," and practically every myth that you can think of is true to some extent. Things like unicorns and dragons existed, though their like has long faded from the world, and legendary figures such as Cu Chulainn and King Arthur could be considered completely historical. Believe me, I've met several of these figures before. True magic is exceedingly rare and can only be accomplished by a certain few, but magecraft allows those gifted with the ability to use it to surpass the average human in many areas.

Brief description of your life: I am from an established aristocratic family of mages whose lineage goes back for nine generations, including myself. I am a lecturer for the Department of Spiritual Evocation at the Clock Tower in London, which is the headquarters of the Mage's Association. I suppose you could say that I've had quite a good life so far.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: I was a participant in the Holy Grail War of Fuyuki, which is a contest for the Holy Grail that involves the summoning of Heroic Spirits like the aforementioned King Arthur and Cu Chulainn. I was about to challenge one of my enemies before arriving here, so my initial hypothesis for my arrival was that it was some sort of illusion or a variant of Second Magic, but as time goes on I'm beginning to suspect that may have been a coincidence.

Your history here: I have not had the pleasure of returning to my world yet, although if I ended up here again after that I would be extremely cross.

Others from your world: There appear to be several that I don't know particularly well, so I'll limit this to the ones who I have some knowledge of. There are several Heroic Spirits here that I've met, as well. Their identities are kept secret during the Holy Grail War, so out of respect for that, I won't be revealing their actual identities.
[...because really, he doesn't need to go making enemies if one of these people doesn't want their identity made public...] I should clarify that as a spirit summoned for the purposes of the war, they are only tied to the world by the mage that summoned them-but, of course, that doesn't apply here.

-Tokiomi Tohsaka: A respected mage and a fellow participant in the Holy Grail War, which technically means he is my enemy back in my world. Neither of us saw any reason to continue the war here, so we've been traveling partners during the times he's been in Johto.
-Einzbern: I'm not aware of her first name, but she's another participant in the Holy Grail War. I don't know her particularly well, nor do I care to. She seems to have two people connected to the Einzbern family with her, though I'm not 100% certain of their identities and would rather not feed you too much speculation.
-Lancer: An Irish Heroic Spirit. He is actually from a different Holy Grail War than the one I'm familiar with, so I cannot give you the exact details of his circumstances. I know his identity, but as stated before, I don't intend to reveal it unless necessary.
-Saber: A Roman Heroic Spirit. I hesitate to include her as being from my world because she was summoned into the Holy Grail War of a parallel world, but I assume she existed in her current form in my world, as well. Again, I am uncertain if she would want her identity to be brought up here, so I will refrain from stating it. You are extremely unlikely to guess who she actually is unless she actually tells you, though.
-Rider: ...Given how little regard for caution he appears to have with regard to his identity, I am going to break my rule here and tell you that he is the Heroic Spirit Alexander the Great. I have not personally spoken to him, but his presence on the network was rather difficult to ignore. He is a Heroic Spirit from the Holy Grail War that I am participating in.
-Sola-Ui Nuada-Re Sophia-Ri: My fiancee. Technically also my partner in the Holy Grail War. We were traveling together until her disappearance.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Practically everyone seems to have arrived before me save Tohsaka, Rider, and Sola. Tohsaka arrived at roughly the same time I did and reappeared a few weeks ago, while Sola arrived few months or so after I did.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: There wasn't anything particularly strange about Tohsaka's disappearance, though I did receive two of his Pokemon after he left. Sola... did behave somewhat strangely before disappearing. I would prefer not to discuss it.

Frequency of 'replacements': As far as I know, this has only happened with Tohsaka, who disappeared for several months and returned recently with his memories intact. He mentioned that about ten minutes transpired between his return to our world and his reappearance here.

How long you've been here: 29 days shy of two years.

Brief description of your world: Earth, 1989. No world is completely mundane.

Brief description of your life: I am originally from Philadelphia and a middle class family, but has since moved to San Francisco. I wouldn't describe my life at home as unhappy but I do believe happiness comes easier here.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: None I feel pertain directly to my coming here, strange though they may seem.

Your history here: A solid stay thus far. No trips back.

Others from your world: Two. Albert Rosenfield, coworker and medical examiner, and Gordon Cole, Regional Bureau Chief and my immediate superior. I understand you've already had the pleasure of speaking to both of them.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Albert arrived in July and Gordon in September this year, meaning well over one and a half years since I myself set foot in New Bark. I consider them my friends and colleagues, and at the risk of stating the obvious, yes, they are still here.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: None from my world have disappeared.

Frequency of 'replacements': None from my world have disappeared.
However, I have known several others who have disappeared and been 'replaced', and will note that although quite similar in frequency, remembering this world appears to be slightly more common than having forgotten it.

Brief description of your world: Does it have explicitly supernatural elements (spirits, ghosts, witches, etc.)? Are there creatures not standard to most worlds (unicorns, dragons, sprites, elves, etc.)? first question: yes although most people from my world would probably say differently, second question: no. I WISH it was unicorns.

Brief description of your life: Middle-class, moved around a lot. Lived in an apartment before I got here. Life SUCKED. This place is home now.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: nothing strange happened within a WEEK, no. I fell asleep to bad sitcom reruns and bad Chinese food and woke up HERE.

Your history here: Have you ever been here and gone back home before, and then if so, do you remember your time here and did you notice anything strange leading up to your arrival home?
No i've been here solid the whole time.

Others from your world: Yeah i've met a bunch. most aren't here anymore so I'm excluding them from the list, right now there's just me, my dad, and my semi-adopted bro Henry who is a photographer and permanently stoned. He likes to smoke and he's scared of ghosts and I HATE HIS CAT HIS CAT IS SO FRIGGING ANNOYING that's not relevant to the survey or anything but if you ever met this cat you'd agree with me ok.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world:
my father arrived from about a year prior to the point I left from
Henry was in the middle of a life crisis when he arrived, not sure what year he came from

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: mostly no, but one person left after we fouhgt

How long you've been here: about one year

Brief description of your world: Does it have explicitly supernatural elements (spirits, ghosts, witches, etc.)? Are there creatures not standard to most worlds (unicorns, dragons, sprites, elves, etc.)?

A. It seems like a perfectly normal world to most people. Seems being the key word.

B. I certainly hope they're not standard to other worlds, I'm not sure what you'd call them though. Monsters, nightmarish creations. Cults and gods. Those sorts of things.

Brief description of your life: Middle class, we moved a lot. Eastern US. Not unhappy, but things could have been much better.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: I was murdered and woke up here.

Your history here: Have you ever been here and gone back home before, and then if so, do you remember your time here and did you notice anything strange leading up to your arrival home?

I've never left. I'm not really sure what I'd be returning to.

Others from your world: Have you met anyone else from your world? If so, how many, what are their names, and if possible, provide a brief description of their personality and history.

A few.

My daughter, Heather. A photogropher named Henry.

A few others have been here and gone.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: If you answered yes to the previous question, when did they arrive in relation to you? What is your relationship to them? Are they still here?

My daughter and Henry were here before I arrived.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: No sorry. I was trying to figure that out myself, but I didn't notice anything odd.

Frequency of 'replacements': I know a few people have gone and come back. Usually they remember this place.

Sex: Male

Gender: Male

Age: 27

How long you've been here: A little over 2 years.

Brief description of your world: I'm from Los Angeles, California, Earth. I was in Paris, France when I got sent here though. It was 2019. The only supernatural thing I can think of is we have spirit mediums who can channel spirits and stuff. I don't really get the whole process myself but it's kinda creepy.

Brief description of your life: I guess I wasn't that happy with my life before coming here. I lived by myself and sometimes my girlfriend whenever I had one. I did a lot of odd jobs and I was trying to find the one that actually fit for me. I wasn't having much luck.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: My girlfriend had just dumped me and I was about to head back to LA. Aside from being majorly screwed over, it wasn't anything weird.

Your history here: I've never gone back. I've been here the full two years.

Others from your world: There's a ton of people from Earth here, but if you mean people I knew/got to know from back home that showed up here, then there were a bunch of them. Phoenix Wright (Nick), a defense attorney. Miles Edgeworth, a prosecutor. Maya Fey, Nick's assistant. Pearl Fey, Maya's cousin. Franziska von Karma, a prosecutor. Apollo Justice, a defense attorney. Trucy Wright, Apollo's assistant and Nick's adopted daughter. Ema Skye (I think that's her last name?), forensic investigator. Iris, spirit medium. Dahlia Hawthorne, Iris's sister and uh...horrible person and convicted criminal. Man, there's at least like 5 more but my memory's kinda bad.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Nick and Edgeworth are my two best friends. Nick was here before I got here but he didn't remember a lot of stuff that happened to us back home. Edgeworth showed up a couple months after me but as a kid. Maya showed up at the same time as me. Everyone else at a month or more later, I don't remember. None of them are still here. I'm the only one.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: The only weird time was when Nick and Iris disappeared right around the same time. It was uh...not my best week.

Frequency of 'replacements': Nick and Iris first left a year and a half ago, and they've both showed up at least one more time since, but didn't stay long. They didn't remember being here and were from different times. Pearl, Franziska, and Trucy also came back more than once but Trucy was the only one who remembered being here. Those are the main ones I remember.

[He almost doesn't submit his survey answers. As much as he'd like to find a way to go back home, a part of him was a little too apprehensive to take that plunge. What if they did find a way back (other than obviously go home)? How was Rin supposed to face those same friends who rejected him after learning what he was? He had okay relations here in Johto and while he rarely saw them face-to-face it was almost comforting.

In that small way, he could understand why some people made internet friends. But he didn't like keeping secrets or lying to those around him. It was stressful. He could barely be himself around the few people he spoke to in person, much less his pokégear penpals.

But maybe he could make a small leap. After all, he wasn't going to get back home by being a coward.]

Sex: male
Gender: why are you asking the same question twice
Age: 15
How long have you been here: nine long months

brief description of your world: this is a stupid question, doc. my worlds like anyone elses. its got trees and oceans and rivers and forests. its got prime ministers, schools, and churches. i live in japan, true cross town, around tokyo. but yeah it has some supernatural stuff. ghosts. demons. not everyone can see them since theyre not supposed to be able to pass between worlds. you wont notice em. you gotta get hurt by a demon somehow first to see them first.

brief description of your life: i lived in a monastery with my twin brother and the rest of the clergy. the man who raised us was the head priest, Father Fujimoto. i went to school and also cram school for exorcists. cram schools for learning about demons, about weaknesses and strengths, and what they are, where they come from...

circumstances of your abduction: you mean what happened before i came here or after? when i came here everyone treated me nicely and told me how to get around. its normal for everyone and it just feels more normal the more days go by, you know? not like i forgot my life back home - no way i will forgot that - but like everything here is calmer. no ones trying to kill anyone and so far everyone is okay with everyone else.

before i came here i was just starting my training. it was a little after i was on trial. theyre going to exorcise me if i dont pass the exam.

even though everything is nice here, im wasting time.

your history here: i had some friends. i think i have an enemy but even he is okay. i have a real job now at the breeding center but i havent gone back. i want to. i have to.

others from your world: i wish. i havent seen anyone from home in a long time. not even my brother.

i cant answer any of the other questions either. but i did know other people who left. they got quiet and its harder to get in contact with them, like they're drifting away. next thing you know, they're gone.

Name: Riku

Sex: Male

Gender: Male

Age: 17

How long you've been here: Two and a half years.

Brief description of your world: Boring island. Not much to do. Other worlds exist, but I never actually got to see them before I showed up here. Apparently monsters called Heartless exist and trip out people's hearts. Some of the most powerful weapons out there are giant, magical keys and every world has its own set of rules. Like talking mice, for one. Since all those worlds follow their own sort of logic, it's hard to describe everything in full, especially since I never got to see much of it. You'd be better off asking Sora, Kairi, Ven, or Vanitas. Terra too, probably. And Minnie actually is one of those talking mice, so there's that.

As for tech, it's all pretty 'modern'. Computers, TV, phones... Nothing super futuristic, but it's not too far from the way things work here. And no, it's not earth. The world's just called "Destiny Islands.

Brief description of your life: Grew up on an island. Got bored of it. Decided to go see other worlds with my friends and built a raft.

My parents have some pretty solid income, though. Not many people on the islands have a balcony at their house.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Nothing special. My friends and I were just hanging out, gathering supplies for our trip to other worlds, and engaging in a little friendly competition.

Your history here: Never gone back. I've been here since the very beginning, faced all the Gym Leaders in both regions, seen just about everything Johto has to offer and a huge chunk of Kanto, and now I run a Training Center. My team's pretty overpowered, too, but that comes from a pretty strict training routine.

Others from your world: Sora, Kairi, Ven, Terra, Vanitas, Roxas, Demyx, Minnie Mouse, Xion, Naminé (I think. Haven't heard from her in ages, though.)

Sora and Kairi are my friends. Both of them are from my future, after we get to see other worlds and wind up saving them for good measure. Sora's got one of those Key weapons I mentioned-- a Keyblade. So do Ven, Terra, and Vanitas, but they're all from the past. Minnie's a queen from a world with talking animals. As for Demyx, Xion, Naminé, and Roxas... I don't know much about them, honestly.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: It varies a lot. The second and third timet Kairi and Sora were here, they were closer to my time, but before and after that, they came from the future. Nobody from my time is around right now. It's kind of frustrating, honestly.

There were others here before, but they left ages ago. Didn't bother listing them then, but... Master Eraqus, Aqua, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, a data copy of me, Lea, and I think that's it? I'm probably missing a few. Most of these guys haven't been here in months, if not years.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: Nothing. They just vanished out of the blue. Sometimes they'd disappear after each other (second time Kairi and Sora were here), but it was probably still a coincidence.

Frequency of 'replacements': Sora's been here... five times now. First time was from the future, second through fourth times weren't, and now he's from the future again. Sora's come back with memories twice, but this time around he forgot everything.

Kairi's been here four times. Twice from around my time, twice from the future.

Terra's been here three times, and he forgot about it each time. Vanitas has been here twice. Came back without memories the second time.

Haven't kept any close tabs on the others. Most have stuck around.

Name: Jane Crocker

Sex: Female

Gender: Um, female?

Age: Fifteen

How long you've been here: Since November 23rd; roughly a month and a few weeks?

Brief description of your world: Well, it's Earth! I suppose the difference to most Earths is that my three friends and I are about to play a game that destroys the world around us, sucking ourselves and our houses into the game. I'm afraid I don't know much about the game itself presently, but my friends have told me we entered it?

Brief description of your life: I lived in Maple Valley, Washington with my Dad! It was pretty uneventful for my early years, and then I was named as the heir to the Betty Crocker company! Unfortunately, that's when the assassination attempts started; why, I don't have a clue, but the why isn't so much a concern when it starts obstructing my day to day life. I was homeschooled over the winters from then on till I've arrived here.

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Nothing particularly strange, though my Dad had tried to keep me indoors by putting the fridge in front of the door. I'd been waiting all day for some mail to arrive and when I saw it had, I wasn't about to sit around inside until Dad finished his infinitely long car wash to bring it in!

Your history here: No, and none of my friends have said I've been here previously.

Others from your world: Oh goodness, this one might take a little while. My friends from my time are Jake English and Dirk Strider; Roxy Lalonde was here for a short time before she disappeared. Jake is a very friendly gentleman, and Dirk is.. well, he's not unfriendly! He's just stoic and revels in ironic jabs. Then, there are the friends we were going to meet after we started our games! John Egbert, Rose Lalonde, Dave Strider and Jade Harley. John is extremely friendly and very optimistic. Rose is kind, but I can sense a sassy tongue that rivals Dirk's. Dave plays a cool demeanor and is kind, but Striders have a penchant for irony. Jade, I'm afraid, I haven't spoke to very much! We've only seen each other in passing.

Then there are their friends, the trolls. They are also playing the same sort of game that the others have, only it's the.. well, troll version. I don't know all of their names, but Karkat Vantas, Aradia Megido and Kanaya Maryam are the ones I've met! Aradia is the one I've spoken to the most, and she's extra friendly, almost as friendly as John! She really loves ruins and is so full of life, I wonder just what is so fascinating? Kanaya is calm and graceful, and I would say kind hearted. This isn't to say Karkat isn't kind, but he has a very rough exterior. Sometimes, it takes a little reading between the lines to see that he's trying to help, it's just that the words come out harsh.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: Well, John, Rose and Jade all have been here for about two years. I haven't asked Karkat, then Dave arrived maybe.. three or four months ago? Jake arrived two or three months ago with Aradia and Roxy, then myself, then Dirk and Kanaya.

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: Roxy, Aradia, Jake and I were all traveling to Goldenrod through the Sudowoodo pass. Nothing seemed all that strange, and I was certain she was just behind me until we pulled up into town.

Frequency of 'replacements': I'm afraid the only one who has left is Roxy, and she hasn't made a reappearance just yet.
