SIGN characters can be found within the game, starting with part II, Mutation. Four scenes from SIGN can be witnessed at Delta Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground (where BlackRose first brought you). Each event is triggered by the completion of some event in Mutation. Once you have unlocked each event you will be able to see character memories wandering around in the root towns in Outbreak. They appear as transparent ghostly images that walk back and forth in a certain location. When you talk to them they will tell you a quote (memory) from .Hack//SIGN and give you an item. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Character Memory Locations (non-spoiler version) Each character is found in order. No other character is unlocked until you have found all six locations of the previous character. This guide reveals the root town he/she is located in (with the server in parenthesis). Below the town and server is the detailed location of where to find the character and the item(s) received after talking with them. Please note that if a character appears in the same root town you appear to need to leave the area before the character will be in the new location.
