[/b] Arrive 'in costume' having already thought out the God or Demon you plan to portray. Remember; your true identity must remain concealed.
Entrance To The Forest City of Chīsachīsa
千差血さあ [Thousand Variant Blood Invitation]
On the isle of Drofn you arrive. Host to the obscene spread of jungle bound on all sides by frothing water. There is the mark of civilization marring this natural expanse. Plopped down, a beveled stone among rock pillars. Its larger sections jutting from the back of a steep cliff face like the fossilized spine of a giant beast, carved in metal, crafted of stone, of the far off mountain clutching the island's skin like a scared child - gripping vines drool down pincer-walls of rock, along bridges of rusted mineral. This is Chisachisa, a city of science and learned men, of travesties and of blessings. It is a hidden city built in layers, whose complexity and technology advances in obscene lurches the further in to the spiral of its construction one explores. At the base of this territory, on the forest floor, where the buildings take shape carved out of rigid geometry from steal beams and exchanges of paneled light overgrown with vines. It is mid-day, a musty noon, and the sun boils away despite its light being filtered into shadow by the leaves of tress. Your adventure begins here.
The Yamatae Building (Foreclosed)
It looks deserted. More than deserted; unnoticed, forgotten to time and by it. It is in the middle of being swallowed by the forests of Drofn. A massive building of modern design, glowing neon framework in a state of disarray suggesting years of neglect. There is a cleared away area approximately 100 meters wide near closed security doors at the front entrance, and this is where You, and several others find themselves hoping to participate. As instructed, those who have arrived, have done so with their identities concealed. They do not brandish the headbands of their village of origin, nor introduce themselves to you immediately, preferring to observe and analyze. You have been told that someone from the company would meet you upon your arrival, and such a person appears to be at the ready, sitting atop one of the neater piles of broken stone and fern acting as a barricade around the meeting area. He is wearing multiple items of clothing bearing the Yamatae Company logo, standing out in the common garb of a researcher or scientist, and is waving meekly at those who arrive - come here, he seems to say, this way. He has a red pen clipped to his left pocket, and a nametag just barely hanging off of the right side of his jacket collar. Osuru Tayned, RESEARCH ASSISTANT.
He counts those assembled briefly before shaking his head, and yelling in frustration with his hands on the verge of closing into fists. He is incredibly frustrated, but due to being assigned the task at hand, his attitude is Helpful. Everyone didn't seem to have arrived yet. He couldn't start the final selection process until everyone had arrived. How much longer would he have to wait? He kept waving as more newcomers joined. Come on.
He is waiting for You.
State all items on your person in LIST form only; Yamatae Personnel will only be responsible for that which you have legally itemized as in your possession before participation in the experiment begins.
While Yamatae Personnel are aware of the participants Identities and Villages of Origin, such information should NOT be freely shared among participants. You should arrive outfitted in a way that does not reveal sensitive military information.

Bonus Type 2: Arrive having assumed the identity of another ninja you've met IC. All relevant skills, checks, and non-attack techniques/items/apparel will apply towards this task.

Plot: They are called the Degyōga, a name whose meaning is something like "people of the jungle". They are a rugged and hard-working people, their culture isolated from the modernization of the world, and they have adapted to the harsh forest that is their home by living as the humans of old once did. They are the herb-tree-people, the jungle-dwelling-riverfolk, something like savages living in massive interconnected village structures, hut-cities coating the edge of endless green wilds. They have names that are only observations of a natural world, they know pain and laughter and hunger but not science. They can be considered backwards and child-like, but the strength inherent in survival has allowed them to eke out an existence full of hunters and gatherers, elders and healers, outsiders and chieftans and, now...the Gods. One of their number, a crippled hunter living with the elders named Rantell, has claimed to see visions from divine spirits. He is using this event as a means for manipulation, corroborated through his use of 'the god's magic', to take subtle control over the tribe, and force them to travel beyond their modest tribal territories, into the 'outside' world. It is time for the actual Gods to intervene. Completion Parameters: Participate in the experiment, discover if the participants are volunteers or slaves, and learn as much as you can about the organization funding this operation.
Non-Ninja Plot Modifier: You are asked to participate in a social experiment that has never been attempted before. There are participants who are involved, and required to play the role of deities. But though the Degyōga did not believe in Gods until the lies of Rantell, they have always believed in demons. Specifically, The Three Demon Brothers, the personifications of their fears about death near an ancient overgrown statue -- the northern edge of their simulated world. Usually, the legend of The Three Demons, as the surrounding 'cursed' stretch of jungle is also called, is enough to keep the Degyōga away. But Rantell's wild claims have spurred on a time of expansion and exploration, that is leading the tribe closer and closer to uncovering The Three Demon's true secret. Hidden within the statue itself is the main observation room of the experiment, as well as direct access 'between' worlds. You will pose as The Three Demon Brothers, utilizing their great powers, and intercept Rantell's next expedition seeking to explore the forest grounds leading to the structure. Completion Parameters: Prevent Rantell's expedition from exploring the area leading to the statue by posing as The Three Demon Brothers.
