Heart Game: Talon
Was it this late when you stepped into the Game Tower...? Now the sky above is dotted with a few scarce stars, occasionally obscured by some light cloud cover drifting by. Most of the night sky has been washed out by the bright lights of the city which, by the way, is spread out far below the rooftop that characters find themselves on. There's a faint buzz on their phones. When checked, the screen shows a Game Notice:
Win Condition:
1. Locate the True Heart
Or
2. Leave a Lasting Mark
The skyscraper towers high above the streets, easily dwarfing any other building in sight. The city is some dozens of stories below, and the sound of the wind rushing by is louder than anything that can be heard from the streets. Occasionally the wail of a siren pierces the distance, but it's easier to spot the lights of an ambulance or police car zipping through the roads than it is to hear them. If you look closely enough, and for long enough, you might notice figures in the distance leaping between buildings, sometimes in pursuit of a siren or with an emergency vehicle trailing in the distance behind them.
The roof itself is expansive—the building must take up the better part of a city block, judging by the space available up here. A helipad (sans any helicopter) takes up the entirety of one side of the roof, complete with what looks like a freight elevator for moving things from the roof further into the building. The elevator itself has a keypad lock on it, but a staircase entrance beside it has no obvious lock in place.
The rest of the rooftop is empty save for a small, hooded figure perched atop one of the parapets along the edge of the roof, feet dangling over open air.
[ OOC NOTES:
1. Powers are on. THIS INCLUDES CANON POWER SETS.
2. Characters may keep any equipment they had on them when entering the heart, but there is a risk it will be taken away during the run. However all equipment taken will be returned when you exit the heart.
3. Significant changes/damage to the heart will reset each time someone new enters an area for the first time. For example, if Bob kills the sentry at the entrance of the heart, the sentry will respawn for Sally when she arrives. This way everyone can experience the different areas.
4. CAVEAT TO THE ABOVE: exceptions made for anyone specifically going through the heart with a partner(s), or anyone who requests to react to damage that's been done. The goal here is to allow everyone to have fun in the heart at the end of the day. ♥ ]

Oh. I don't know! [She shrugs.]
My phone says I'm supposed to find a true heart. Do you know what that means, Talon?
no subject
Hearts again... Perhaps it means the overseer? He'd be considered the source of everything here.
no subject
[Because she can do that, probably? She grows wings then, but not where wings usually are. Just wings, so many wings, all over, and eyes to go with them. She's like an angel, but not the pretty ones you see statues of.]
I'm sure we can find that person, together! If you wanna...

[ Talon doesn't have any data to explain what's happening now! The sentry stops for a few long moments before finally shrugging helplessly ]
Talon would want to, but unfortunately I am unable to leave my position. I must remain here in case the city calls for aid.
no subject
[Thankfully, Venus is smarter than she lets on, so like. Talon being a "secret identity" makes sense because that mask! Like a superhero!!!]
Okay! I will go looking then. I hope everything goes alright up here, and you can call on me too, if you need my help, okay?
[It's a lot less awkward to move than you'd expect when Venus goes for the stairs for now. She can fly but like, checking this building first seems like a good idea!]

[ The stairs lead to the Parlor. ]
