==Session 1 "Nowhere To Stay, Nowhere To Go"==

===Sunday, March 7th, 2010===

The player characters began on a train bound to Battle Creek from Chicago, most of them eager to start a new life in Battle Creek. The train trip was spent with the changeling characters and another changeling named [[April Jennings]]. They discussed their backgrounds somewhat, and were only briefly interrupted by a transit authority agent who may have been suspicious of [[Alana Diaz|Alana]] and [[Ernest Williams|Ernie]] for their unusual travel arrangements, but left them alone.

Upon arriving in Battle Creek, the group was "greeted" by representatives of each season. Spring's representatives, [[Tiffany McIvor]] and [[Toucan Sam|Sam]], welcomed the group to Battle Creek, but admitted that Spring's welcome was of limited authority, given that they would not be in power until the 20th of the month. Sam sniffed the group over, but didn't seem especially interested in them. They handed the group the [[Map of Battle Creek|Map]]

Winter's representatives, [[Shaun Schumaker|Shaun]], [[Gabriel Cole|Cole]] and [[Jacqueline Yamamoto|Jacqueline]] gave them a cold (pun intended) reception and, while they took some interest in Ernest and [[Evelyn St. James|Evie]], generally came across with a message of "GET OUT".

Autumn's representative, [[Roper Red|Roper]], took pictures of them with a magical camera that took pictures of their Miens, and asked them questions about their plans, intimidating and mocking them in the process. He seemed to take some interest in [[Nikolai Petrov|Nikolai]]. Beyond that, he simply stood by and watched them from a distance.

Summer's representative, [[Jack Strong]], was warm and said that the King of Summer was probably "the chillest Summer King you'll ever meet."

The player character's got a ride from [[Sarah Richards|Sarah]], Evie's cousin, to Denny's, where they were approached by an ensorcelled mortal named [[Calista Moore|Calista]]. She told them that winter would be causing them all kinds of grief as newcomers, and wanted them to meet with [[Arianna Lassar|Arianna]], a woman who wishes to become the new winter queen.

From there the majority of them (Nikolai and Evie excluded) went to Rodeway Inn (the hotel across from Denny's), where they bribed the receptionist into giving them a shitty room with no hot water (which Ernest took care of).

Evie and Sarah drank Fireball and partied at Sarah's apartment until there was a knock on the door. A lumberjack looking man with glowing red eyes asked Evie if she knew [[Carl Crowley]]. She admitted that she did not.

Nikolai broke off from the rest of the group, and was able to meet with a homeless changeling named [[Billy Goat|Billy]] who agreed to let him stay if he could help him buy a dime bag of heroin from a local dealer who hangs out behind the abandoned Toys 'R' Us. Nikolai acquired it (in the process backing the dealer off when he asked if the "has anything to do with Billy"). As they prepared to wind down for the night, a lumberjack looking man with glowing red eyes asked Nikolai if he knew Carl Crowley and told Billy that this "was not for him". Nikolai admitted he did not (with repeated questioning), and the man left.

The next day, Evie looked for jobs, [[Persephone Beaumont|Sephie]] went to work (mostly orientation and busy work), Alana, Ernest and April helped [[Hestia Lamore|Hestia]] get a phone, and Nikolai realized how hard it is to look for work when you've got no fixed address and poor credentials. The session was adjourned with evening falling and the majority of the player characters looking at the prospect of where next to spend the night.
