Ingress travel can be disorienting, but there’s no need to worry! All side effects are temporary and lessen with each trip. Your body may experience several sensations at once: being pushed forward as if a hand is resting on your back, momentary and startling blindness, a gentle ringing in your head. You may have difficulty discerning whether it is hot or cold, but where you have been prodded is noticeably warmer than the rest of you. Some may suffer from dizziness while others are perfectly fine. You notice that the area you are in is filled with a soft cerulean light and feels slightly humid and dark despite the glow around you. Regardless of your current state, however, the stress of initial Ingress travel forces your body into unconsciousness.

Waking up is another story. Or maybe it isn’t.

You find yourself in a nondescript room; sometimes with others who have found themselves in the same situation, sometimes alone. A medical tech is always present to explain what’s happened before giving you some clothes, a TAB, and a guide that discusses things in further detail. This entire process also consists of a complete work-up of medical history and current health in order to obtain your signature—a specific frequency that will allow them to hone in on exactly where it is you’re from in order to get you back there.You spend your first week on the Ingress Complex while other accommodations and arrangements are made for you.

⋆ Phanos is classified as Exploration Class (EC) and is open to all travelers. The dry heat on the planet is overwhelming, but it's important that as many people as possible visit so that scientists can track down the origin of a strong signal pulsing somewhere on the planet. Its frequency indicates that if it is found, Ingress engineers may be able to hone in on people's signatures to send them home. However, frequent dust storms on the planet's surface are causing interference. It is strongly advised that investigators visit in groups—and keep their mouths closed!

⋆ Between dust storms, at the ege of the sandy plains, travelers will notice a series of pyramid-like structures. The smallest ones are just a few feet high, and the largest reach as high as ten-story buildings. Those who press on will find the terrain more difficult, as they must trek through increasingly dense clusters of pyramids of all sizes. Eventually, the pyramid 'forest' clears to reveal the largest pyramid of all, the size of a small mountain. Its peak is guarded by nests of griffin-like creatures which are no larger than a medium-sized dog. Those with combat skills should be in no danger, unless a whole nest attacks at once!

⋆ Multiple stone doors built into the top of the pyramid lead into a surprising space: a sleek lab, filled with incredibly advanced technology. Scientists, engineers and techies could happily spend years studying the equipment and deciphering the data it contains. But in the darkest corners, there's a quiet chittering...are the travelers really alone?

You're a mutant? [ and admitting it so openly on a network here. this place is very different from mega-city one, anderson knows that. it still strikes her as a dangerous thing. ]

[measurelessly]

Yeah. [ wait-- ] I thought that was okay here. Am I going to have to fight people again?

[mindtricks]

So mutants have to fight for their lives in your world as well?

[measurelessly]

Mostly we hide, but yeah, that's what it seems like. I'm still a little iffy on the details-- I haven't known that I'm a mutant very long. Are you not from my world?

[mindtricks]

I don't think anyone here is from my world. How can you not have known?

[measurelessly]

I thought I was crazy. The voices have been there as long as I can remember.

[mindtricks]

You're a telepath.

[measurelessly]

More or less. You?

[mindtricks]

Yes.

[ and for a moment, it might seem like she'll leave it at that. then she asks: ] What does more or less mean?

[measurelessly]

It means I do other things, too, but the psychic part's what I'm best at right now.

[mindtricks]

What else?

[measurelessly]

[ UHH.. ] Telekinesis and teleporting, for instance. I've done things I don't really have names for. I keep finding new things. [ and it's honestly fucking terrifying. he understands why people are scared of him. ]

[mindtricks]

Are you strong in all of these things?

[measurelessly]

[ uhh... ] I guess so. I don't know how to control it all very well, though.

[mindtricks]

I have some practice with controlling telepathy. [ not terribly much, though. ]
