[The video feed flicks on to show the face of an attractive brunette with blue eyes, her hair pulled back into a ponytail. She's likely in her early-thirties and has an air of confidence, despite the unusual situation she's now in having just arrived on the islands.]

Hi, everyone. I just woke up here, and I wanted to thank everyone who's tried to make this... really weird situation a little more tolerable for those of us who just came through the door.

My name is Jill Valentine. Back home, I'm a member of an anti-bioweapons task force run by the United Nations.

Strangely enough, I'm told I've been here before. I don't remember that, but something about some of you feels really familiar.

[Her eyes scrunch a bit as if trying to search the recesses of her mind, but she can't remember this place no matter how hard she tries. It's almost like trying to recall a dream.]

So I just wanted to say, if you did know me before, you don't have to tip-toe around that. I'd actually like any and all information you can give me so I can prepare myself for this place. If I've already got friends here... well, I'd count that as a very good thing.

[She ends that with a little smile.]

Thanks.

Yeah. The multiverse is all but proven at this point, y'know? Like, how else do you explain all this? I don't know if you've noticed, but we've got people here from all over the damn place. It's wild.

[And exciting, if you ask him. It's far and away the coolest part about being here.]

Oh yeah? What's your field?

[Yeah he definitely forgot that she led with that in her post. Sorry, Jill. He heard the "been here before" bit and the rest went right out the window.]

I haven't met a lot of people yet, but I'm starting to get that impression.

[The more people Jill meets, the more she'll see just how diverse everyone is.]

I'm a member of an anti-bioweapons task force. We work on a global scale, which basically means I constantly live with jet lag.
