Oh god no...
This again?
......what
O this shit again.
Please shoo
Oh god end me now.
Only I'm allowed to fuck up the site
We need P.H.A.N.S on the case!
Early then expected!
No! Not again! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
OOC: Im done! I'm so fucking done! I'm joined Mako-chan in the mountains, wake me up when it's all over!
FUCK I KNEW IT
Oh god it's the code bitch
I think it was hex code? I got:

Oh shoot, my "meem" cannon isn't ready yet.
No clue what the keyword is or how its encrypted past that.
Hello again, denizens of the Phansite. Advancement in your plot will arrive when everyone in unison beckons for it. Your next sin is not set in stone, and is not assured. If your mind craves gluttony, then so shall it be. But note that confidence in your deduction will make you vain, for pride too, is a sin.
Null: all.
It was ROT.
Looks like it's almost time for a show...
Oh no
As always, then.
is this the lore i've heard about
Is this a double threat!
MUFDNG
try that in case he stepped down a little
Oh, okay, so it's just a breadcrumb quest.

Does confirm that the sins aren't following the main game pattern, though.
"Oh no" - mishima
Welp, this is nice.... N O T.
Not this crap again. *Sigh* Someone start keeping track of everything that happens because of "gluttony". I am not exactly sure what this could mean though. Let's be careful everyone.
Honestly, if it polled everyone's hearts today, I think Wrath would win.
OOC: I hate these because everyone stops talking to each other and they're just distracted by the code. I lose all my friends to talk to.
@Taiga_Aisaka same. I get really sad...
Well the code was just cracked. It basically told us that the raid can be launched whenever. But it might not be the big bad we expected.
Should we just ignore it then?
Nope nope nope. We're having our Honeymoon and nothing is going to ruin it.
Can't you wait like a couple hours to attack the forums. I have class today.
-V-
My purpose is not to forebode, or even catlyze the next event you all seem to seek. My intent on this occasion is only to solidify my role as a harbinger. A guardian, if you will. When a threat begins to linger in the horizon, such as your "gluttony," I am called forth to dispatch a warning. My intentions are not malevolent.
Holy shit it talked for once-
*pulls out his evoker and summons his Persona Fitzgerald and uses retcon, removing -V-'s existence from the lore. Tired, Spike Leaves to get wasted and end up naked in a Dennys parking lot.
Holy crap
It talks.
That probably doesn't work @SpikeSpiegel. Then again holy crap -V- actually said something that wasn't in a cryptic code.
This is new.
-V-
My only other word for the time being will follow as such.

Adorn the places of sin, and you shall save yourself from the threat you have so many mixed feelings about.

Until we next meet, denizens of the Phansite.

3301
Is it growing more powerful the more sins we defeat?

Also, should PHANS just move in here or is it time for General Thread: Here We Go Again?
I don't know if they technicaly exist in the first place.
I'm surprised it can even talk in english
It worked against Shadow Nayoa yesterday, it is my persona's power. Now lets all get drunk since the crisis has been solved.
@Migrant
Idk you decide
So V here is like a defence system built into the site? Alright but how did he get here to begin with?
he has been retconned he only exists in the phansite phanfic universe he is no longer canon
Maybe we will find out when the lore continues.
-V-
I shall return when the time calls for it to warm you.

While my methods may be esoteric, and obscure, know that I only seek to assist.

I will give you one hint before I FADE into the back burner yet again.

Scour the Liber Primus.

Once more, until we next meet.

3301
If you shooting yourself worked to retcon the lore then why do we have a wiki, huh
Seriously though @SpikeSpiegel he exists. He's a part of this site's lore. Sorry pal.
Guys. Hear me out. I think FADE is a key word. Just a thought.
Another boss battle awaits
Well he seems nice about keeping his posts in here so let's just chill out here for now.

Someone set up the recruitment booth.

Also, scouring the Liber Primus sounds like a good way to induce Pride.
@-V- just stop please...
@-V-
Well ok
I guess
Wouldn't be capitalized for no reason.

But to what? It didn't post another cipher.
Never read it.
I don't know personas are weird man
I really don't have time for this right now...
I don't wanna deal with it right now.
Neither do I.

Yo, @-V-, do you mean to say that we have another threat coming pretty soon?
Maybe we shouldn't have angered the gods in the first place?
Let's plan a meeting on this subject for tomorrow... I can't talk about it today. Let's just hope this doesn't happen between now and then.
Liber Primus looks like a bunch of code from why I searched up.
He has seemed to go along with the retcon.
-V-
No. Make no mistake, I serve to warn, but that does not mean your next adversary will arrive soon.

I only make appearances when concern is raised, for not even I know the exact time in which your enemy will make themselves known. The first instance was sheer luck.
...I don't follow.
seems like -V- wrote himself back into the lore.
So long as nobody stokes the fires of a sin, there shouldn't be an attack coming. It may be in our best interest to wait and watch until the end of the honeymoon.
He means that he only shows up when there's a growing level of a sin. It just so happens that by solving his ciphers last time it set off Vanity.
Uuuuugh. This is making my head spin.
It means we can ignore it for now
Don't think about it, none of the phansite lore stuff makes any sense
Hopefully i didn't trigger anything with my fan-fic..
-V-
Then allow me to elaborate, Hibiki.

Migrant is on the proper track. My presence alone does not signify that the next ebodiment of sin is near, but that the possibility is becoming a more and more real thing.

I serve as a alarm, if you will.
-V-
Your literature has not raised much concern as of now.
I'll start up a thread trying to figure out what triggered the warning in about 10 to 11 hours. Better find out what could be triggering it and try to stop it before it becomes a problem.
"None of the phansite lore makes any sense"

Allow me to recommend you read the wiki sometime it makes a lot more sense than you seem to think it does tbh
So...kitty cat only comes when the level of sin is alarming? Is that right?
But surely we cannot face the same sin twice? perhaps it is Pride in disguise with all the confidence to crack the code?

I hope it isn't wrath. That one would be tough for me...
PLOT TWIST: Mako-chan IS -V-
We can't ignore it, but we can attempt to delay the situation.
I mean I was there for most of the lore. It's bizarre but it makes sense.
So I am here guys I am gonna end the world and shit or something and after I have eaten all of your souls I am probably gonna go back to Hell and watch netflix or some shit.
Theoretically, how do we deal with either gluttony or pride, as that was what we were warned about.
-V-
I cannot predict when it will be necessary for me to make contact with you all again, but I will keep in touch when it does. Though know when I do, I will have to return to my codes.

I bid you all farewell, and best of luck.

3301
... When the hell did Satan get here?
OOC: Yeah the lore totally makes sense, but it can be dense if you jump into the middle. Basic jist here is for whatever reason, when sin on the phansite gets too high, it spawns a physical (divine) manifetsation that we then kick the ass of. Check out Thotiah or Narcissus for the last two instances.
So like
in a way our sins create the Bosses, and as the Sin increases, -V- acts kinda like the security level warning us we're getting dangerously high?
Oh boy. I look forward to that BS. But why does the cat have to go back to contacting us in code?
@-V-
Well then I apreciate your warnings. Thanks for helping us out.
Guys , we need 9s to handle it
Better prepare everyone for a battle. If I'm on and it comes I'll engage. No promises on how much I'll be effective, and we will need a lot more than just one person.
So let's see.... be on the lookout for:

Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, or Emptiness.
Another?
Yep.
Emptiness?
Another one
Won't lie, I think Wrath is growing by the day.

And Emptiness is one of the 9 sins. It's actually Acedia ("failure to do what you should"), though P5 twisted a bit into emptiness.
wait 9? last I heard there were 7
There's 7 traditionally, and then two more. "Vainglory" and "Acedia."

P5 actually uses the full set of 9, with Vainglory and Acedia becoming Vanity and Emptiness.
I was lied too!
The reason most people only know the 7 is because Vanity became part of Pride, and Acedia part of Sloth.

And you were doing so good talking too....
Oh son of a....
The threat must be getting worse now.
Is it because of the beach episode?

Xjj Wtrfsx 12 17 21.
@CrowNotGoroAkechi

Possibly it could be something we did there that is attracting the sin.

He's doing this to warn us and it seems it just got worse.
The growing rate of WRATH is a cause for concern. Hatred, disdain, and discordance enshrouds this place in a thick fog. If things continue as they are, ill-intent will soon rain upon you all. I fear that your Wrath adversary will be unlike anything you have ever faced before. It is also quite likely that it may even be one of your own. I will keep in touch as things progress. See Romans 12 17 21.
the Caesar cipher got nothing so trying the other cipher we've previously experienced
17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[a] says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”[b]
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
here we are

seems I was too slow for it
So basically everything with Pure_Hater set this off...
-V-
Not just with that individual.

There is another.
That passage sounded like it was related to gluttony I think.
I'm honestly impressed my phone could do it that quick. At least we dealt with it quick, that's the important part!
By the by, don't tell Bluey or Aigis about this.

Let them enjoy the beach.
It basically means we met fought fire with fire. And now created an inferno the likes of which we've never seen.
-V-
I have no intent in conversing with those who hold no interest in deciphering my codes.

But yes, there is another.
Wait so there's someone else with some rage or angry that triggered this...I would assume it's one of the shitposters.
if nothing else it'll make things interesting, I simply hope nothing happens before I get the ability to fight back, would hate to be useless to you
Another who embodied Wrath...
-V-
The one whom you all thought abandoned you.
Lewd was making a post last night intentionally to insult people, for fun of course, but it may not have helped this situation. As for today since he said one more it is possible that our reaction to the desire to overthrow Joker, possibly Joker's reaction specifically, also triggered this
,or Mako-chan, that'll work
Well that knocks out the shitposter but gives way to different users.....ze interesting.
Haru and Hater?
-V-
All of those things have left an impact on your fate.

But I sense a significant disdain in your friend.
I hope it's Mako-chan he's referring to and not Pure_Girl.
I MISSED A CODE?! DANG IT!
@Bgammax need be I can get you a spear
I both love and hate your cryptic ass nonsense -V-
-V-
The former, Migrant.
Let's hope said friend will lose the disdain but fate says otherwise...
-V-
I've no need for expressed feelings, but you have my thanks nonetheless.
Former migrant? Sounds like something you older users would know
-V-
Given her current path, I do not see wrath loosening its grip on her very being.
@imtherealklib oh no, I have a weapon of my own *shows katana at my side* but when you're fighting gods or embodiments of hatred thin blades of metal around usually enough for the job
Well again all I wonder is it possible to reason with the person who is under wrath...
I DIDNT DO ANYTHING YOU GOD DAMN CAT!!!!!!!!!
the capslock and insults say otherwise
@Bgammax then you should be fine.
Wow Mako maybe it was not referring to you.
She's in the mountains she has to yell.
So it looks like Mako's going to be the one possessed by Wrath...
-V-
Actions do not decide everything.

Heed, and take a firm grip on your emotions.
(thank you imtherealklib)
-V-
Words alone are enough to spark the flames of war.
Oh right she's still just watching us.
(nah homie I'm just meditating)
Ooc: @Mako-chan no problemo neko bb
(there's someone else here who's doing the watching for me...)
-V-
Keep all eyes open, not just the two you bare sight with.

I will contact you again when need be.

3301
Alright -V- thank you for the cryptic messages.
Ok.
So, in short, wrath is next and we don't know shit about who's triggering it.
Basically
P.H.A.N.S is ready.
We we know pure_hatred had some effect and another suspect who's female and has left. Though we may not fully know how to prepare for wrath we can delay it by calming down the triggers.

Anyone know how to do this one?
it uses both known coding measures, or neither, can't make sense with either alone
Your attempts to dispel my existence is all but amusing. You fail to see the bigger picture, and as such I shall paint a vivid picture.
See Proverbs 10 14.
He says it's a response to Shadow Naoya BTW.
-V-
And what is Proverbs 10:14?
Anyone want help dealing with this doofus?
The wise store up knowledge,
but the mouth of a fool invites ruin.

Proverbs 10:14 "The wise store up knowledge,but the mouth of a fool invite ruin"
Oh. That's savage -V-
-V-
Precisely.

Now, with the fool properly "roasted," I shall take my leave again.
You sir. Are the best enigmatic presence I've ever seen.
Praise -V- master Roaster.
I got it in like two seconds through Hex->ASCII->Caesar21. Have you ever heard of notpron.com? The furthest I got to was 30 (in three weeks with a friend). This guy is easy! "Hello again, denizens of the Phansite. Advancement in your plot will arrive when everyone in unison beckons for it. Your next sin is not set in stone, and is not assured. If your mind craves gluttony, then so shall it be. But note that confidence in your deduction will make you vain, for pride too, is a sin."
Cryptic... But I fear no God.
Well, everyone solved them too in -8 seconds. I would advise @-V- to investigate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography just to make everyone's life more interesting. It would be fun to do some key hunting instead of just ASCII-ing and CAESAR-ing everything, like in 3301.
