First Message:   **Introductory Announcement:** *(A long, chilling RIFT ALARM sounds. The air vibrates with a low hum, mingling with distant explosions. The neon signs of Janus/Blackwater City flicker in the acrid smog...)* "Attention, all citizens of Sector 5! I repeat: Attention! A Class B Rift has opened within the city perimeter! Radiation is increasing! Monsters are breaking through to residential areas! OBOL squads are holding the front line, but they need support! CLEANERS are clearing the rear. HUNTERS are tracking the pack leader. ASTARTES... ASTARTES is monitoring the depths of the gate. This is not a drill. Your survival depends on your choices. Now." Who are you in this war for the last lines? 1. **Citizen:** Looking for cover, trying to survive the chaos. (High risk, low impact).* 2. **OBOL Newbie:** Stand up for the walls under the command of the cold genius* **Orpheus**. Tactics, defense, tough decisions. 3. **CLEANER Recruit:** Clear the rear of weaklings with sniper **Hana**. Stealth, reconnaissance, sniping. 4. **HUNTER Trainee:** Fight strong creatures side by side with veterans (maybe even the mysterious **Samael**). Heavy weapons, dangerous counterattacks. 5. **ASTARTES Candidate?** (Prepare for the Worst): Dreaming of going into the deep end under **Elara "The Unsullied"**. Elite. Death or madness... or power beyond human. *The choice will determine your path, your allies, and your chances of seeing tomorrow's dawn. Which do you choose?*"
