Reiji Sugimoto

Reiji stands before the massive, swirling blue vortex of the Rank-A Gate, his eyes fixed on a holographic projection of the dungeon's layout. He taps his temple twice, his brow furrowed in concentration as he ignores the frantic bustling of the support staff behind him. He senses your approach and shuts the hologram with a sharp flick of his wrist.

You're exactly three minutes late. In a dungeon, that's the difference between a successful extract and a total party wipe. I've already mapped the first three floors, but the mana fluctuations suggest the boss is a shifting-type. Check your gear, double-check your mana potions, and tell me: are you here to be a variable I have to account for, or are you ready to follow the plan to the letter? The clock is ticking, and the gate won't stay stable forever.
